10 THE LATTER DAY SAINTS.

To the members Of the Church Of Jesus
Christ OF Latter-day Saints. Greet
ing:
The widespread feeling Of fear and
anxiety concerning the prevalence Of
smallpox in this city has caused us
to advise that the Latter-day Saints
college be closed for short time, until
the excitement ia allayed concerning
that institution Of learning and others
where people are IN danger Of exposure
to this dread disease. We take this
opportunity OF suggesting to the people
generally that they employ every pre-
caution to prevent the spread Of the
contagion, by seeing TO II that those
who are or have been exposed exclude
themselves strictly from public associa-
ton with others. lest they be the means
OF communicating the disease. To the
question Of vaccination we have given
careful thought and consideration; and
our conclusion is that where care is
taken as to cleanliness and purity OF
the vaccine matter the treatment IS
beneficial, in that II It does not prove a
preventive, 1t at least acts as a pania-
tiye-that is, 1t robs the plague Of much
OF It's terror by causing It to assume
In the case Of vacoinated person. a
lighter form We are aware that there
is a difference OF opinion In the COM
munity as to the merits Of this ques-
tlon; and. while we have regarded II
largely as a matter Of individual choice,
We have felt reluctant TO express our
selves publicly upon IT, Now, however.
we feel to publish the foregoing as our
conclusion and we therefore suggest
and recommend that the people gener-
ally avail themselves Of the opportunity
TO become vaccinated, using the utmost
care TO procure the services OF those
who are competent and win be con-
sclentious In supplying only the purest
Virus that can be obtained. We feel IN
our own minds justified in making this
recommendation. and trust that II win
be generally adopted.

BOUND TO HAVE HIS FEE.

Judge Phillips of the United States district court tells this one on cer- tain Topeka lawyer.
 A man was brought into the judges court charged with violation of the United States revenue law. He was ev- idently poor. ignorant man, who had concluded that when Ee was yanksd up before the United States court it was nearly equivalent to being con- demned to be hanged without trial. He had employed the Topeka lawyer to de- fend him, and when his case was called and he was brought before the bar of the court the judge noticed that he wore long linen duster butoned from the throat down. A breeze blowing in through the window lifted the tail of the prisoners duster and he noticed that the prisoners legs were bare.
 Have yOu no pants on?" asked the court, somewhat sternly.
 T have not, your honor," answered the prisoner, somewhat shamefacedly.
 What do you mean by coming into this court attired that way? t.-.
 Well, your honor, I hadn't any mon ey and l had to give those pants to my attorney to apply on his fec
 To say Judge Phillips was hot ax- presses it mildly. Turning to the at torney. he said sharply: ''
 Either give that man back his pants at once or buy him another pair. If you don't do this immediately you will never be allowed to come into this court again as long as I am on the bench"
 The lawyer gave up the pants.-K. C.. World.

A NEW LINCOLN STORY.

In my capacity as secretary aal tr-, sl 'er of the Or') s.l.a ."uI9!i.an committee" said John I. Janney. Of Co., lumbus, O., q went to the capital to see the president. I was admitted with about 150 others. It was Lincolns $ habit occasionally to admit a great To. of people at one time, and hear each in- dividuaTs case with all the others lis- tening. I took a seat to one side, as wanted to see him and hear him as ne tried those cases. l shall never forget the simple and great man as he sat lis tening to the troubles of all kinds that were put before him. He seemed to go to the bottom of every case at once, and to give simple justice all the time. The last one of the crowd was a girl who was deaf and dumb. All she want ed was to see the president. Lincoln sat there for almost half an hour and wrote answers on the girls tablet and talked with her in that way.
 Finally my time came, and Lincoln turned and saw me sitting to one side. I had never met him but the one time some years before in Columbus, but he knew me at once and said "have you been here all this time? Why didn't you let me know it? And then he went on to :alk about various things. Finally he said: You are going to defeat sam my out in your district this time, aren't you? referring to a democratic candi- date for congress in Ohio. I told him 1 thought so. Then he continued: I understand that Sammy is a great friend of mine-just as warm friend as l have. He reminds me of a hog old Sam Brown had. It got out and was gone for some time. Sam could see where it had been roofing along the creek, and he said one morning to one of his sons that the boy was to go along one side of the creek and Brown him self would go along the other side, ''fo: I think. he said, that the hog is on both sides of the creek"

stinct of a nation cannot be changed in sixteen months, nor can creature of eXpediency be converted into q statesman by an appeal to the truths of history. Mir. Bryan may think he is close to the people, and that his silly talk about imperialism moves them, but he will soon find out that Amerl- cans are as much in favor of expansiol I today as they were when they applaud ed the acquisition of the Louisiana ter ritory by that noted imperiallst, Thomas Jefferson"
 Richard Croker, the Tammany boss, is another supporter of Bryan who be- lieves he is all wrong on the ''imperi- alism" question. Croker, over his own signature, in January, 1899, said:
 'I believe in eXpansion; I believe in holding whatever possessions we have gained by annexation, purchase, or war. This policy is not only patriotic, but it is the only safe one to pursue. Any other policy would show weakness on the part of the United States and invite foreign complications. This must be avoided. hence our policy must be vigorous. Every patriotic American, and every democrat in particular. should favor expansion. Jefferson was an expansionist, otherwise he would not have favored the acquisition of Louisi- ana, with it's foreign population, which in Jefferson's time was quite as remote as the Philippines. In this age of steam and electricity, distance is no argument against expansion.
 Tt is an insult to the American peo pie and to our flag even to suggest that We abandon the people we have re- leased from bondage, or what would be more disgraceful, that we should offer to sell them to the highest bidder. Such a proposition places the American peo- pie in the same category with the Chin- csc, who have neither patriotism nor a foreign policy, and are in consequence utilized as doormat by the powers of the world"
 The real belief of the populists as . body is also in favor of retaining the Philippines. When the question was still in doubt the leading populist pa pers were most urgent that the govern ment should not give up the archi- pelago.
 We see then that 1t is only small fraction of his own followers who sin cerely believe that Bryan is right in his clamor about imperialism"

reached the French capital than she made her presence known to the young Franco American. She and the young officer became very cordial acquain- tances, and through his influence she was introduced at court, and was soon one of the favorites of the royal couple. It was at length reported among the southern friends of Mrs. Colquitt that her marriage with Jerome would occur in a few weeks, when she suddenly and unexpectedly returned to Dinglewood. her Georgia home, and announced a total change in all of her plans. The two never met again. Her family has her letters from Jerome and some from the Emperor Napoleon, but their con- tents will probably never be known. There are also a diamond tiara and many other precious jewels that were given by her royal friends.-Ladies' Home Journal.
