BRIGHAM YoUNG's BIRTHDAY.

Ninety-nine years ago, one Of the

Important part IN the affairs OF the
nineteenth century was born in the
flesh. His history appears IN the rec
ords Of the Church Of Jesus Christ Of
Latter-day Saints. with which he be-
came Identified two years after Us or
ganlzatIon. and IN which he was a
leading Elder from that time until his
decease As President OF the Twelve
Apostles before the martyrdom OF the
First President and as the President Of
the Church subsequent to that event
he stood az the front in all the notable
movements OF the Church, and was
never known TO falter or to finch, no
matter what the danger. He was equal
20 every emergency. His mind grasped
the situation and his courage never
failed. His name is identified with that
Of Utah as well as Of the Mormon
Church, and Is suggested at the mem
ton Of either. The ceremonies IN his
honor today, though arranged by his
surviving family are participated IN
by the public, for he belongs TO the
State as well as the Church He found
ed this commonwealth, and was the
builder OF the religious system the
foundations OF which were laid by the
Porphet Joseph Smith, under divine In
splration and commandment. The mu-
sic. the artillery firing, the flowers, the
decoration Of his monument, the
speeches. the services and the recrea-
tlons In his honor are all appropriate,
and mark today, we hope, the begin
ming Of annual public celebrations,
which ought 10 be perpetuated among
