It Makes RestfuI Sleep.

Sleeplessness almost invariably accompa- nies constipation and it's manifold attendant evils-nervous disorders, indigestion, head ache, loss of appetite, etc. To attempt to in- duce sleep by opiates is serious mistake, for the brain is only benumbed and the body suf- fers.

DO NOT BREAK TINE Law.

The people Of Utah. as a rule, are law
abiding and honest They are not a
turbulent class. nor do they have
disposition TO avoid or evade the re-
sponsibilltes and duties Of citizens.
But. like other folks. some Of them are
not familiar with an the laws. either
Of the State or OF the Nation The
law, however. presupposes a knowledge
Of It's provisions, and its penalties,
therefore, may fan upon persons who
are innocent IN spirit but guilty in act

denoe. II falls alike upon the Just and

For example, there are the timber
laws Of the United states. They are
often violated both wilfully and uuln-
tentionally Some particulars concern

OF this issue OF the News" IN an
interview with the agent OF the gov
eminent These are published Tor the
benefit Of persons who may fall into
trouble through lack OF information.
the really guilty win have to take their
chances Of punishment, but All should
observe the laws and rules framed for
the protection Of the timber belonging
20 the United States.
Leading men In the various settle
ments should make themselves familiar
with the timber laws, and instruct the
people so that they may be saved from
prosecution. which has to be entered
against those who break the law
whether they understand g or not.
Purchasers Of lumber made from
timber unlawfully taken are liable as
well as those who cut and sell Il.
Therefore great care should be- taken
that none Of our people shall suffer the
laws penalties
Let no man break the laws Of the
land Is a Divine command 90 the
Latter.day Saints, and they win save
themselves much sorrow and trouble
by observing this wise Injunction.

NO "cHANGE OF HEART

The position taken by the Deserct
News on the duties and responsibilities
Of the United States in consequence OF
ihe victory over Spain. is the same to-
day that IL was Immediately after the
treaty by which the Philippine islands
came into the possession OF this ma
ton.
II would not matter greatly II we had
changed our views on this important
question. It Is the right Of every public
journal 10 drop anything that q dscov-
ers 20 be wrong. and lay hold Of every
thing Il learns to be right. Indeed. that
Is Its duty, as Il is OF every intelligent
individual. But we mention the fact of

Views and take IT'S present attitude.
From the time when the flag OF our
country was raised over the archipelago

today, We have supported the policy Of
