To the Editor of the Dispatch.
I herewith send you an outline or
synopsis of sermon preached today
by the Rev. S. G. BallentiDe, in Mt
Pleasant church, which you will
please give place in this weeks issue.
His subject: Duration of future
punishment. Text, Matthew 25:46,
And these shall go away into ever
lasting punishment.
By way of introduction he showed
clearly the unscriptural foundation of
those who do away with old hell of
the Bible or teach that it lasts for
q while only.
1sf. It is an unreasonable doctrine
and does not appear how the inmates
Of this prison are to be released.
(a) Do they come out after having

fed the demands of the law? or does
salvation come to them in hell?
- (b) He'll does not appear to be a
suitable place to ft and prepare poor
sinners for Heaven. Shall the So
ciety of devils qualify them for the
society of angels and spirits of just
men be made perfect?
(c) It does note make men more
virtuous in his life. Any religion
that does not make men live better
is not worthy the name. This is a
doctrine invented to bring comfort
to those who are unwilling to forsake
their sins.
2nd. It is an unscriptural doctrine
and is exactly what that Word does
not teach.
(s) Are all those passages which
describe the future states of men in
contrast? Dan. 1872; Matt. 3:l2;

DR.. Chas. II. Utter. a prominent

recent letter states: Last March I
had as patient young LADY sixteen
years of age, who had a very bad
attack of dysentery. Everything I
prescribed for her proved efectusl
and she was growing worse every
hour. Her parents we're sure she
would die. She had become 80 weak
that she could not turn over in bed.

was a study for me, but I thought of

state of the righteous in contrast
with the wickec-;f one is final the
other also is.
(b) Those passages which speak Of
the duration of future punishment
by the terms eve lasting, etc Dan.
1872; Matt. 1873; 25:41; 25:46; etc.
II the wicked do not have everlasting
death, then the righteous do not have
everlasting life.
(c) Pass now to those passages in
which the endless duration of future
punishment is plainly tsugh!-"The
blasphemy against the Holy Ghost
shall not be forgiven in this world
nor in the world to come Hath
never forgiveness, but is in dapger of
eternal damnation. "Between ue
and you, there is a great gulf fixed;
SO that they who would pass from
hence to you can NOT, neither can
they pass to us, who would come
from thence" Now if there shsll be
never forgiveness for some, they shall
never be saved. and it is expressly
said, as If to cut eff false hcpe-
'"neither in this world, nor in that

(d) All those passages which imply
that change Of heart and preps-
ration for Heaven is confined to this
present life: "Because I have called
and We refused, I have stretched out
my hand and no man regarded; I
also will laugh at your calamity, snd
mock when your fear ccmeth." He
that is just, let him be u,inst still;
and he that is filthy, let him be filthy
still; and he that is righteous, let
him be righteous still; and be that is
holy, let him be holy still We may
laugh at the overtures of mercy and
the offers of free pardon, but when
called to the bar of accounts, God
will laugh at our calamity.
3rd. Now look briefly at the
reasonableness of the true doctrine,
that the duration of future runish-
ment will be eternal:
(a) It is claimed that Christ died
for all, 80 he did and God earnestly
wants US all to be saved-saved cnly
upon our accepting Ch.ist-this he
does not force US to do.
(b) It is claimed that Gcd ia too
good to eterually punish his creatures.
When man goes to determining what
is proper or improper for God to Dc,
We oughtto remember that "as the
heavens are high above the earth, so
are his wsys above our vavs. God
has right to punish sinners as long
as they sin and one who dies in sin
will keep on SHINING through eternity.
Finally, there must be a time of
separation of the wicked from the
righteous. Then how terrible it is

Colors Produced in Iron.

Investigation as to the cause of
the production of colors in temper
ing iron satisfactorily shows it to be
due to the formation of thin films of
oxide on the serfsce of the metal
when it is heated in the presence of
air. It also appears that the oxide
so producedis is practically transparent,
first because the sequence of colors
is what would be expected in films Of
a transparent substance when the
thickness of the films gradually in
creases-also because of observation
on the reflected light, the color which
varies somewhat at different angles
but chiefly because it is found that
on increasing the temperature a little
above the point necessary to produce
dark blue the color gradually disap-
pears and the surface, though cover
ed with more oxide, becomes almost
colorless again. The co!ors being the
result of oxidation. it is probable
that the nature of the surface to be
heated, it's freedom from any soiling
and the length Of time during which
it is heated must exert considerable
influence or the shade produced.

tainIy true that Il received it's full share OF
favors The sugar industry Of the Gulf States
has been as carefully protected by our tariffs
as has any other industry in the land. Had the
national government after the Civil War re-
fused tariff protection to Southern sugar, cotton
and other industries. there might be some re-
semblance between the cases. AS it is, there is
only contrast. Cuba is in fact asking for only
what Louisiana got-namely, as good market
and as good a chance to prosper as she had be-
fore the war. We do not believe, either, that
the granting of reciprocity to Cuba will destroy
the Louisiana sugar industry. We doubt if it
will diminish by one acre the area devoted to
that industry. But if ii should do so we must
take issue with the statement that there is no
other line of production to which the sugar
lands can be profitably turned If reports be not
grossly misleading, some sugar lands are now
being transformed into rice lands for the reason
that the latter crop is the more profitable.
But while the evils of Cuban reciprocity are
thus chiefly imaginary, the evils of non-reci-
procity particularly real and inevitable
One is loss of trade which we are even now
suffering. Cuba is now purchasing each year
in Europe S30O00,000 worth of goods which
she could get in the United States and which
she would purchase here under decent reel
procity system Would it not be better for our
and animals and oils and other goods, and let
her send her sugar to our market to supple
ment-not TO supplant-their own, than to shut
out her sugar In favor of European sugar and
send her elsewhere for those goods? There is
another evil. which trust is remote, but
which is menacing enough TO deserve considera-
ton. If Cuba cannot secure reciprocity, she
will begin campaign for annexation. OF that
there can be doubt The fact is already
openly proclaimed. We hope never TO see the
day when Cuba will be n member of this Union
and we should certainly favor reciprocity with
her II for no other purpose than TO prevent de-
mand for annexation. Nevertheless, there Is q
menace OF such evil, and it will be we'll for our
domestic sugar producers to take 1t into ac-
count. If they wolld be injuriously affected by
admission of Cuban sugar at half rates. what
would become of them II Cuban sugar were let
in absolutely free. with, of course, no possibil
ity of a compensating bounty to them?
If our Louisiana friends will consider this
question from all points of view, we believe they
will see that just measure of reciprocity with
Cuba Will not injure them, but will greatly
benefit them and will protect them from far
greater evils than any which their Imagination
has created.

A. w. McCune. of Salt Lake City. was born in
Calcutta IN 1sis but at eight years of age removed
to Utah with his parents. His father was a farmer
and ranchman at Nephi, small town In the south
ern part OF the State, and it was here that young
McCune grew up AS boy he herded cattle and
sheep and did such other similar work falls
to the lot OF farmland. He was fourteen years
OF age when the Black Hawk Indian War broke
out, but he shouldered gun and did valiant
vice in protecting the homes of the settlers until
peace restored. Later he sold little bunch
of cattle which he had acquired. and embarked in
the railway contracting business. He worked on
the Union Pacific in Wyoming. and also secured
similar contracts other roads In Utah. Colorado.
Montana, Idaho oregon and Nevada. He was sue
cessful from the first. but 1t was timber con-
tract for the famous Anaconda Mining Company
of Montana out of which he made his first big
stake. On this contract alone he is said TO have
cleared over $3.50 900, and that too after other
contractors had declared he would lose money.
Mr.. McCune's next venture was the purchase OF a
two-hfths interest in the Payne mine. in British
Columbia. For two years he received dividends
in the sum OF $4,000 month from the property.
and then sold his interest for 81 100000. His only
