THANKSGIVING.

The prayer OF the Phar1see. Lord,
thank Thee that 1 am not as other
men," is a commmdable prayer II ut
tered in the right spirit
Every man has his trials and disap'
polntments, but every man can always
find some one whom he considers more
unfortunate than himself. The Per-
sian poet Sadi once said, Il have never
complained OF my condition but on a
single occasion, when my feet were
bare and / had no money 10 buy shoes;
but I saw man without feet, and in
stansiy became consented with my
lot"
Most Of US have more reason for
gratitude than We are ap, to aeknowl-
edge. even to ourselves, and It does US
good TO realize that We have not been
singled out for providential displeas-
ure. II We have or think we have no
other cause for thanksgiving today,
We can contemplate someone with
whom We would not change positions
and say lord, thank Thee that l am
not as some other men,"

DISMISS THE BIGAMIsT.

Brigham II. Roberts will APPEAR 10
the hall cf congress when that body
meets next Monday, TO BE- qualified
a. a national legislator. II is not dis
putei that he received majority NJ
! the votes cast in his state q Utah that
comp ,ses his district. There Is No ale
: gatiCn OF fraud either as 60 the votes
cast or the returns made and upon
the face OF his certificate he is entitled
% a seat in rhe house.
The house is the sole judge not only
Of the election but also II the qualifi-
cation Of its members. From its judge
ment there is no appeal; and surely il
should take cognizance ot the fact. not
depending upon rumDr but established
beyond dispute. that Mr.. Roberts has
lived long in polysamy under the rules
OF the Mormon church. He has been
indicted. convicted and imprisoned Tor
the CGense. and by his persistence in
what this government has stamped as
q national crime, he is not embraced
in the amnesty prcclanatioCs issued by
Presidents Harrison and Cleveland.
II there were any reasonable doubts
as 80 Mr.. Roberts guilt as a bigamis,,
he should be permitted to qualify on
his prima facia right to hold a seat in
the body, and await impartial and ex-
haustive investigation 10 decide wheth-
e. he should b. dismissed from the
house. Blu. there is no dispute as 10
Mr.. Roberts present and past attitude
as bigamisi. and Il is not only the
right bu; the duty of the mouse to de-
eide. by a vote of the body when h.
presents himself TO De qualified. that
his claim TO a seat shall b. referred
to a proper committee with notice 70
report as to his eligibility.
There would - gr-lt significance in
the admission Of Mr. Roberts as q
member Of congress. Il would he
claimed and justly claimed. that the
COVER ament welcomed those who ara
criminals unler its own laws 10 make
the laws Of the nation. and It would do
more 10 inspire stealthy and persistent
efforts Of the Mormon penple 20 main
tain polygRmy that in Utah disgraces
alike Christianity ard the government.
Let the tigamist BE- halted at the
threshold Of the house, and let notice
go 70 Utah and 20 the world that no
man guilty Of the crime Of polygamy
can be a law.maker for the republic.
