OF Elder Louis A. Ramsey, one OF
Utah's artists, laboring in this city.
Meetings are now being held upon
the streets Of the various cities of this
mission. This part OF the work oc-
cupies the evenings OF the Elders dur
ing the summer months, AS a rule
we are well treated by the people and
especially the officers and police Of the
cities where we labor. However at
times we meet vigorous opposition,
but are usually protected,
An Incident out Of the ordinary oc-
CURED last Monday night, June 2, when
Elder A. c. Brown was struck In the
face and felled to the ground by the
owner OF a saloon In front OF which
they were holding a meeting. The
sympathy Of the people assembled was
with our Elders, and they expressed
regrets that such a thing had taken
place.
Several newspapers have shownmu
lberalty in publishing outlines OF our
doctrines and interviews with Elders.
OF course, many malicious attacks up
on our people appear In the papers at
various times.
The Deseret News performs a great
missionary work In these parts. as
Its pages are eagerly perused by Saints
