Of 80 distinguished personase as

come famous among the Latter-day
Saints. but throughout the civilized
world He was one Of the great lights
Of the Nineteenth Century He was
leader of men. As the years pass By
the work he accomplished the truths

pressed, the good he performed will
more and more come into prominence

tuniiy In the streets Of this city, Of

II the Saturday Review were not so
bitterly anti-Amercan II might be sus-
pected that its object In warning US
against Germany's designs was TO pro-
mote the ship building industry in the
United States especially the construc-
ton of battleships. The Press, as a
consistent advocate Of a mighty navy,
might naturally be expected to re-echo
the alarm sounded by its London con-
temporary, with the view OF working
upon the fears Of Congress and thus
securing the expansion of our navy.
But It is quite certain that the Satur-
day Review does not desire Columbia to
be the mistress of the seas, so It's warn
ing cannot be explained on the ground
that II Is promoting the interests Of the
English capitalists who are planning TO
establish shipyards IN the United States
It's motives, therefore, must be purely
jlngoish
