mother. How lost and helpless are little
children when their mother dies. What
Christian faith must we have to be rec
onciled TO the will of God and to trust
them to His watchful care. But the
promises are multiplied over and over.
Our heavenly Father is the God of the
widow and the orphan. Even with those
promises, the death of Il young mother
is the saddest thing in this troubled
world-and only Providence can give
consolation for it, His tender care OF
orphan children is the strongest proof OF
His love to man. For siXtythree years
George Muller trusted Him to provide
for the orphans in his asylum in London.
He began with twenty and died with
. loo under his care. As their numbers
increased his means increased and ms
buildings were enlarged and his accom-
modations improved and every want was
Suppied and vet he never had an endoW-
ment nor an annuity, nor did he ever
know to-day what money he would have
next week. The money came generally
from unexpected sources and III varied
sums. from shilling to 1000. lie says
in his diary: Il never had too much
nor did | ever have too little. nor did |
ever feel the slightest apprehension that
God would fail me. The orphans were
His and / was but His agent, and my
text in my prayers was open thy mouth
wide and | will fill it. >" When Muller
died. Il few years ago at the great age of
ninety-three. the orphange was costing
near 100000 annually for its maintain
ance. and the money kept coming in.
He never sent ont a circular and never
asked a man or n woman for a dollar. |
He went to God. That Orphanage
proves two things-that God cares for
orphans and that He answers prayers.
VIM. T. Stead of the Review of Re
views has written most interesting
character sketch of Muller in the Nay |
number If any one is skeptical or un
settled upon this question of prayer let
him read it. Our own DR.. Jacobs. who
founded the Clinton orphange many
years ago has had a similar experience
on an humber scale. He never refused
an orphan for lack of funds. The funds
increase as their numbers increase and.
like Muller. he keeps on enlarging the
institution. and the money grows with
his wants, Providence is behind If all.

San Francisco. Cal. Nov. 4.-After de-
manding an increase of wages which was
not granted. the San Francisco newspaper
pressmen today declared strike. The
men employed on the Post and Bulletin
declined to quit work, but the pressmen
on the Report walked out, and for a time
Il looked as though the strikers might
win at least a partial victory. Ali the
concert ana the Post and Bulletin were
not issued until the Report was printed.
This was made possible by the Bulletin
casting the stereotype plates of its pages,
which were run on on one of the Exam
liner presses. None OF the evening papers
sent out early editions, but all appeared
simultaneously at about o ciocA. II IS
understood that the Chronicle pressmen
will continue at work and that number
of the can and Examiner forces viii re-
fuse TO obey the order TO strike, so that
the morning papers VIII not be seriously
embarrassed. The dissatisfied pressmen
have submitted a scale OF wages which,
- accepted by their employers, would in
crease the expenses of the offices by about
$4,000. They demand 81 q day for press
men and S3.25 FOR helpers. instead OF SIS a

throw unjust responsibilities upon it.
The army is still more entitled to the
solicitude and protection of the public
powers, since it can only work equally
for the security of the country in quiet
tude and silence. 1t is equally neces-
sary that calmness attend the work
OF justice and respect of cur duty is to
insure the execution of its. decisions
whatever they may be-
The premier said further: "In the
opinions of individuals this is the only
safe means of calming the public mind,
disturbed by affairs which cannot much
longer cause anxiety to the republic.
Other suestions call for the attention
and vigilance of a great people The
permanent interests of the nation at
home and abroad, its greatness and
prosperity, will. be the predominating
object Of our cares and efforts"
NJ. Dupuy then emphasized the i'm
peratiVe necessity of fulfilling the obi
cations of the exposition of 1900 and
continued:
France must neglect nothing to
maintain the position she has won by
her loyalty, strength and love of peace
! She must devote herself to strengthen
ing this world by a precious alliance
| The governments foreign policy will be
inspired by the clear interests of the
country and care will be taken that
our efforts are only proportionate to the
value of the object at stake
In conclusion, the premier said that
the ministry would rely upon the sup
port of a purely Republican majority,
and expressed the hope that it would
give effect to the continuous policy of
! progress and reform. After the budget
was voted the premier said the cham
Der would be asked to deal with various
financial measures, including bills to

claration was applauded in both the
chamber of deputies and the senate
In the chamber of deputies, NJ. Miriam,
1 Socialist, opened a discussion upon the
! general policy of the government. He
complained of the excessive measures
taken in the recent strike, of the reac-
tiOnary tendency in the army and of
the dismissal of the pro-Dreyfus uni
versitv professors.
NJ. Dupuy replied that the govern
ment did not intend to introduce new
laws, as those already existing sufficed
to guarantee order and protect the
army.
AS to the Dreyfus case the premier
added, light would be thrown upon it
the day the court renders it's decision,
which will be enforced by the govern
ment. The chamber approved the min
isterial declaration by. a vote of 429
to Ga.
The minister of finance, NJ. Peytral,
introduced the budget, and. M. Del
Case, the minister of foreign affairs,
replying to demands for the discussion
of the Fashoda question, said he was
unable to- fix a date for it, in view of
the interests he had to safeguard, but
he added he hoped to arrange an early
date for its discussion.
The minister of justice, M. Lebret,
replying TO a motion providing that all
revision cases be submitted to the
whole court of cessation instead of to
particular departments, said it was i'm
possible to alter the procedure already
started in the Dreyfus case
The house then adjourned.

SPANISH SHIPS MAY Be RAISED
SALVAGE ONLY IN CASE OF
SUCCESS.
Constructor Hobson Argues Before
Naval Board For Raising Vessels,
and Secures Concessions.

Washington. Nov 4-Constructor
Hobson was before the naval bureau
chiefs again today and spent two hours
in argument to convince the board Of
the ACCESSIBILITY of allowing him 70
continue the work of wrecking the
Spanish warships sunk off Santiago.
Secretary Long had already concluded
that the further prosecution Of the
work better cease, at least so far as it
is conducted at government expense
However, he consented to allow Mr.
HObsOn an opportunity to induce the
board of bureau chiefs to reconsider
their original determination. The con-
structor was reinforced in his opinion
that the Colon and perhaps one or two
other ships might be saved by Mr.. Mer-
rift, of the wrecking firm Of Merritt &
Chapman, although this opinion IS in
turn contrary to that Of the wreck
masters on the spot at Santiago. Mr..
Merritt was not present at this after
Moons meeting, so the board cOntented
itself with the recommendation to As
sistant Secretary Allen. who has the
matter in charge, that the Merritt
company be allowed to continue their
work on the Colon under an agree
ment to pay salvage to them only in
case the vessel is raised, and meanwhile
to discontinue the heavy per diem pay
ments the company is now receiving.

GREAT OVATION TO KING.
Biggest Demonstration of the Cam

Especial to The Herald.)

kSDGGlal -
Fillmore, Nov. 4.-The greatest rally
Fillmore has witnessed in this cam
paign was held tonight, and the ovation
that Congressman King received on mis-
arrival here this afternoon and at the
meeting house tonight would have gave
the impression to a stranger that the
president of the United States, or some
other great parsonage was visiting the
eX-caDital.
At $50 a big procession formed and
drove out of town some two miles.
when Mr.. King was met. On the way
back to town he was cheered on every
hand. AT 1880 by far the largest aud
fence ever assembled in the old meeting
house greeted him. And it cheered him
time and again. He spoke for over
three hours on the silver question, while
the audience listened with raDt atten-
ton. During his speech he quoted
from the Salt Lake Tribune, and show
ed what a back sOmersault that paper
had taken on the silver question. He
also said that paper was trying hard to
bring the old fight on again in Utah
between Mormons and Gentiles. lis
talk tonight was the best that has ever
been heard in Fillmore, and has done
the Democratic party more good than
all former rallies together.
The Democratic speakers are receiV-
ing ovations wherever they appear in
Willard. The Hon. r. n. Baskin and
c. w. Penrose held meetings at Kanosh
last night and Meadow today. and they
were enthusiastic ones. Packed houses
welcomed the speakers at both places.
Tonight Mr. Baskin held forth at Hol-
den, while Mr.. Penrose and Joshrua
Greenwood the Democratic nominee for
state representative, held rousing and
thoroughly satisfactory meeting at
Scipio. That Mr.. Baskin is popular and
making a good impression on the peo-
pie Of Willard, is evidenced by the
hearty applause he receives every
where.

Samoa is not very quieting. The board OF

The consuls Of Germany. the United

inclined to give in, but he finds ii difficult

which he has become involved by his own
acts. Meanwhile. Mataafa was not vet
king when the mail left.
Some of the people, urged on by a Sec
ton Of foreigners are advocating the
adjustment of the kingship. There are
others who are DESTROYS of trying the ex-
pertinent of running the country without

plan may receive favorable consideration
from the chief justice. who actually has
full power in the matter. The treaty. Ia

bennington, Nov. 4.-Mr. Jacob Miller.
the Republican and Citizens candidate
Tor representative in the legislature. is
IN queer predicament. He is Re
publican at heart but he has never had
the courage to openly declare his politica

that he believed in the principles of that

convention Tor the reason that he was

INDIVIDUAL. In the Citizens party are
many former Democrats, and in order not
10 antagonize them Mr.. Miller refuses to
go ON the stump for Republicanism. He
is equally careful not to. say a word
against Republicans for fear of losing the
support OF that party, hence he is say
ing absolutely nothing. In Bountiful his
supporters, who were Democrats. are
stating 1t as fact that Mr.. Miller will
vote Tor Roberts, and If he wins and has
a privilege. of voting for senator his
dare not deny it, for it would lose him

for fear of losing Republican votes. In
kaysville and the northern precincts Mil
Ter is held up as stauncR supporter of
hepupncan principles and of Republican
candidates. and he has not seen fit to
