and your heart is open to God.
In it is the cream Of human faith.
It places Il royalty upon man whose
worth can only be seen III the blood
drops from the wounded Son Of God
Did Jesus die so much because man
wanted to live with God, or because
God vearned to live with man? But
this truth is too holy for comment.
Let IL take it before God in our Quiet
Hour and have Him transfX our
hearts by stamping it upon them
Here it is in full:
The spirit of nan is the candle of the
Lord.-PI0v. 21:21.
The benightcd traveller III the
snow has sometimes caught sight OF
a candle in shepherds hut. 1t has
been to him the most joyous OF all
moments: it is the promise Of rest.
Even such. think, is the thought
Of the pro,erb. The man who utter
ed it knew well the saying of the old
book Of Genesis. that when God had
wandered six DAYS through creation
He rested in man. He had been led
on by the glimmer Of one candle
the light Of human soul. 1t was
the only place Of rest the Father saw
in all the vast cNpan,e. There was
no other dwelling for the spirit Of
my Father but my spirit. He could
not find shelter in any other home.
Not where the bee sucks" could my
Father dwell. Not where the bird
sing, could His heart be glad. Not
where the cattle browse could His
life reposc Not where the stars
shine could He find His household
fire One far-Of candle alone gave
the sign Of home. 1t was my spirit.

When the fdNndation of the earth

Thou vert moving toward me. When
the breath of life appeared, Thou
vert moving toward me. The sixth
morning was the last from Thy hand,
but it was the first in Thy he0rt.
The candle was more to Thee than
the sunlight. Thou vert in search
of light not brighter, but better,
than the sun, the sparkle Of 4 hui

face: that was the candle that beck

the night. ..tomc here and rest 1t

SILVER is ALIVE.

In his interview printed in The Her
aid yesterday morning, Judge Colborn
said that among all the silver men be
met during his recent tour of Colorado,
he found no indications of a retreat
anywhere on the silver issue"
Senator Teller is just as positive in his
convictions now as he was in Sc. and is
very hopeful Of victory in the next cam
paign. Dubois. Hartman, PettgreW,
Towne and others prominent in the fight
were discussed in the Denver meetings
and it was agreed that. they were all
standing by their guns.
This does not comport with the views
of our morning contemporary, which
has given out the impression that these
men are sore and disgruntled and
ready TO desert the silver cause Cor
some real or imaginary grievance.
Referring to PETERS return to the
regular Republican organization and
the reasons he assigned for SO doing,
Judge Colborn said:
PETER was never but fossil at best.
He was elected by accident, and 1t was a
fearful come-down from ingalls, to PETER.
There are a few going over to the Repuo-
lican camp for selfish reaSons-the loaVeS
and fishes are there: they argue that there
are other issues of more Importance than
silver, and some are honest in this"
PETER is not the only fossil who feeds
on federal loaves and fishes. He re-
turned to the Hanna party because ne
believes Mckinley will be reelected.
Other quondam supporters Of silver in
dulge the same hope. and justify their
climbing into the bandwagon by she'd
ding a few tears over the alleged death

ACCIDENTAL EXCUSES.

About four weeks ago the Tribune
announced a change of policy on the
financial question When confronted
with a fragment of its record of
month before, our contemporary said
that it was perfectly willing to fiirt
with the silver issue so long as it re-
sembled a buxom lass, but that it re-
fused to take any interest in a corpse.
1t was two weeks later perhaps, that
Mr.. P. H. Lannan, the genial proprietor
of the Tribune, was interviewed in
that the free silver issue is dead and
said:
THE trend of events since 1896 has
forced it into Oblivion, and however
much we may adhere to the white
metal from principle, it has been elm
mated as a living factor in the politics
of the day."
Two months ago our contemporary
declared that silver was very much
alive and that all who pronounced it
dead were lying and trying to deceive
the people. One month ago it solemn
ly asserted that silver was a dead is
sue.
Yesterday morning it undertook to
explain the sudden change. 1t assigned
the Indian famine. the crop shortage
in southern Europe, Argentina and
Australia, the discovery of gold in the
Klondike. the war with Spain, and the
copper boom, and asked:
And was it possible to anticipate either
one of these events or accidents on cleo
ton day, 1895? Not one of them. of course.
in the least changes or weakens the prin-
ciple behind the real issue of the contest
accidents since. the outside world has
lost, at least all save the increased Weld
of gold from the mines.
From this we are to conclude, then,
that if silver is dead as the Tribune
asserts, that it died an accidental death.
But there is nothing in such expla-
nations The silver cause never looked
better than it does today. Nor does
it appear that anyone, besides PETER
and our neighbor, who favored free
coinage in 1896, has reached the con-
clusion that cit is useless to make an
other stand for silver in this country
unless conditions change" AS a rule
those Republicans who rejected the St.
Louis platform have not been won over
to the policy of international bimetal-

CUTS OFF CRIMINALS.

According to the summary of the new
extradition treaty with Mexico, pub
Hshed elsewhere in this issue, the hope
of refuge in the land to the south of
us is cut off for all malefactors whose
crimes are important enough to make
escape most desirable. Practically
every crime of any magnitude is COW
cred by the terms of the treaty, and
this leaves but little territory on this
continent that could be utilized as a
snug harbor for outlaws.
Very properly, the treaty excludes
from its jurisdiction such political Of
lenses as cannot properly be called
crimes, and the other exemptions are
the usual means of protection against
unlawful persecution in the guise of
prosecution.
Utah's direct interest in the new
treaty lies in the fact that criminals
fleeing from the southern part of the
state frequently make their way to
the Mexican border through Arizona,
and the new treaty will act as a deter
rent if not as preventive of crime.

ANNA LEADS A MOB.

Anna Gould that was, the Comptesse
Boni de Castellane as she is known in
gay Paree, has apparently become ac-
climated and naturalized in her new
home. She is just as hysterical as the
rest of them. During the riot in Paris
the other day she placed herself at the
head of an anti-Semite mob and
marched up and down the lawn shout
ing "Vive rarmee," at the top of her
voice.
That would have been a strange per-
Torrance for Anna Gould. 1t may be
all right for the Comptesse de Castei-
lane. In New York. had the American
girl placed herself at the head of a mob
