need so no further than to cite the
Tribune 70 its own verbatim report"
The eternity Of the marriage cove

Christ Of Latter-day Saints. does not
necessarily include plural marriage.
commonly called polygamy II Il a
sacred principle by which man and a
woman may be united together through
diylnely revealed ceremony, the pair
being Joined for time and all eternity,
that which Is thus sealed on earth
being sealed In heaven" Though death
may part them, the resurrection win
reunite them, no more TO be separ-
ated.
This was the union dlylnely sealed
between Adam and Eve, before death
entered into the world by sin. They
were immorials and the twain were
made one. That which was lost In the
fall is restored by the atonement. Adam
and Eve stand together at the head
OF their posterity forever.
BY the same ordinance In the Church
today the same eternal union may be
formed. That Ia eternal marriage. That
is celestial marriage. Plural marriages
are no longer consummated. Eternal
marriages are solemnized in the Tenn
pies. President Cannon alluded to the
latter, but did not mention the former.
These are the facts In the case
The marriage covenant to which
President Cannon referred, as one Of
the doctrines that had been opposed by
the Christian world, ia legal mar
rage. There is no law against it.
The parties To II are lawfully entitled
TO enter into II. They not only obtain
the sanction OF the Church, but the IL
cense required by statute. II is duly GER
tilted and recorded when a couple are
thus united, just as It would be 10 they
married until death does them part,
BY a magistrate or sectarlan minister.
The law regulates the secular part OF
the ceremony, and does not interfere
with the sacred part.
Plural marriage IL not now solemnized
because II is forbidden by law. The
State Constitution prohibits IT, 80 does
the state statute The head Of the
Church. who alone holds the keys OF
authority on this matter, also forbids
It. II has ceased, but eternal or celes-
tial marriage continues and viii abide
They who cannot perceive the differ
ence between the two are blind indeed,
In the present instance perversity,
rather than ignorance, caused the at
tempt OF the Tribune to place In a
false light before the public the dis
course OF President Cannon. There was
no excuse for IT, therefore We exposed
It. The epithets Of our unesteemed

LANDIs'S LOGIC.

The Boston Herald in the subjolned
paragraph gives just estimate Of the
poor argument employed by Mr.. Lands
In the debate on Mr.. b. II. Roberts
That paper says
'erhe most eloquent speech In the de-
bate on the Roberts case appears 10
have come from Congressman lands OF
Indiana. He didn't pay any particular
attention to the constitutional aspects
OF the question, or TO the facts IN rela-
ton thereto, but he waded Into the sem
timental part OF II all over, and he
brought down the House and the gall
lerles by his graphic descriptions Of
firesides desecrated by plural wives and
polygamous children. His speech was
lust about as convincing as that fam

The News has been requested to
announce that the National Council Of
Women will hold no annual executive
session until the fall Of 1900. This or
ganizatlon, which reflects or concen-
trates the work of so many national
and State organizations, Is doing steady
work all the time. Its effort is for the
present concentrated on plans for a
commission to Cuba and Hawaii to in
yestigate into the condition OF women
In those islands and see wherein the
women Of the United States can be
helpful or cooperative with them.
These plans will be submitted at the
executive session in the fall, and the
commission formally appointed. Il Is
expected the President Of the United
States will endorse this commission.

During their own occupation Of Spion
Kop and the positions adjoining the
Beers have had ample opportunity
to calculate the range from their own
guns TO the hilltop, not with general
precision merely. but with absolute Ger,
talnty. II Is probable that the Boer
gunners were able 10 calculate TO With
in a few yards the placing OF every
shell. Efficient artillery fire Is largely
a matter Of accurate calculation OF
range. and under the fire which began
to pour in upon Spion Kop as soon as
Gen. Warrens troops were established
there the position must have become
speedily untenable With guns carefully
trained on the position hours before, II
was only necessary for the Boer artil-
lerists TO keep loading and firing In
order to harass their enemy beyond
endurance.

STRENGTH IN THE PACIFICS

of the Street.

The halting tendency which appeared
in yesterdays stock market was quite
natural after the spirit trading of Tues
day. Spells of vigor and apathy alter
mated yesterday, but the market was
strong withal.
Fresh strength developed in the Pa
cifics and the coal stocks, and smart ad-
vances were made in stocks that have
not heretofore participated in the build
ing-up process. Particularly did this
apply to Northern Pacific common, New
York, Ontario & Western. New York,
Chicago & st.. Louis preferred and Cleve-
land, Lorraine & Wheeling preferred. In
the general market there was enormous
taking of profits by those who bought
recently and who are not standing aloof
to see which way the market is going to
drift, but the absorbing power on the re-
action was amply srong to prevent. other
than trivial decliLe'.
At the moment The market is distinc-
tivelya RAILROAD. market, and as long as
it runs in that groove its health will be
preserved, but should it turn to indus
trials more liberal margins will be re.
quired.
The comparatively slight extent o!
Tuesdays reaction in the railroads was
not surprising. The decline from high
figures, when the market is under strong
professional manipulation, is always
slow, but those who put out short linei
have no cause to worry. They will be
able to cover beyond much doubt at gooc
profit before the end of the week.
Sugar, with fair start, took tumble
from 1l0I to 105. Industrials however
promise good, especially steel and til
plate. The bull speculation is stronI
enough when it has fully turned init
the industrial quarter to being abou
, considerable rise in these shares. Favo
