ABOUT TTTnING.

The Presiding Blshopric have issued
circular TO Ward authorities, concern
Inc the settlement Of the fee-wlll Of
forlnas Of the Saints known as tithlng
for the current year. According 70 'hls
circular the Blshoprlo Of each ward
win deslenato time for the annual
tthiug settlement Of the year 1904 and
announce mat time at an the ward
and quorum meetings including the
meetings OF the auxiliary organizations.
during the month of December. THIS
settlement should commence so as TO
allow ample time to complete It by De-
cember 3ist so tha5 every person haV-
ing membership in the ward may be
given full credit on the records for this
year. Il is also recommended that
Priests and Teachers visit members ana
notify them Of the time and place set
for settlement, as well as 60 teach them
their duty IN that regard,
Special attention is called to the fact
that the books OF the Presiding Bishops
Office viii close FOR individual credit on
December glst 1904, but In order TO ao-
commodate Bishops who desire to re-
init cash received during the settlement
ii win be accepted from Bishops ONLY

1905.
The law OF tithlng was familiar TO
the former-day Saints, through the d.
vine commandments given on the sub
feet. Abraham, AFTER his remarkable
victory over the combined forces Of five
'klngso considered Il one Of his FIRST
duties to give to the Lord tenth OF
the proceeds. Jacob, at the beginning
OF long and dangerous journey, made
vow to the effect that II God would be
with him and bless him with bread to
cat and rallponi to wear, he would
surely give the tenth unto Thee"
when Israel became q nation. In its
laws were incorporated statutes con-
corning tithes "And AN the 1.-THE Of
the land" we read whether of the
seed OF the hand, or Of the fruit of the
tree, is the Lords it Il holy unto the
Lord. And II man viii redeem ought
OF his 1.-THE, he shall add unto IL the

was common to an the early nations,
AS long as they enjoyed the slightest ray

ALlTrLE "HIGHER CRITICISM"

We read in the anti-"Mormon" or
gan;
"Humbug. as defined by Webster.
this is something contrlyed In order 90
deceive and mscad,
This definition is exact but the appli-
cation is entirely wrong We respect
fully suggest this corrections
Just az the present time the chief
humbug that IL before the people OF
Utah for their attention is the pretense
that an the leading anti "Mormons' are
animated by sentiments Of patriotism
and moral purity
We also reads
"Mess of potage This Is supposed
to be what Esau sid his birthright
for"
This, Il win be observed is not even
a loose definition Webster was not
consulted ON that It Is merely lit
lie sllngshot at the transators Of King
James Bible. who render the Hebrew
text thus. Then Jacob gave Esau
bread ana pottage Of lentles thus
Esau desplsed his birthrlght' There
is no supposed about the pjttanCe of
a price Tor which the wild son OF
Isaac, IN moment OF faint
heartedness, bartered away his birth
right But foolish as may have been
the act Of Esau, It is nothing IN folly
and falslty to compare with the act
of those lwho are endeayorng to selll

order to crafty their own desire for
selfish power
We have quoted verbatim, except for
the words between brackets, from the

We read again;
Judas. -One OF the disciples Of the
Lord and Master; the purse-bearer'
This definition IS, Of course. correct
as far as Il goes, but in the connection
IN which It is used It Is very good H.
lrstratlon Of the kind OF sophlstry
which consists IN enumeating some
| facts. In order to draw the attention
away from others Judas was at one
time a trusted dlsclple also purse
bearer But on the background Of his
tory ne stands out prominently as the
unfortunate man who, for the paltry
sum OF go pieces Of slyer-the price by
the way, OF a slave at that time-be-
trayod his Master into the hands OF as
sassins
But we continue reading:
Recalling the great story about the
Savior. that He took thongs and dashed
the money-changers from the steps OF
the temple
This may be a great story" It Is
entirely on a par with other great sto-
rics that come from a certain story
telling establishment But It is not
true. The Apostle John in relating the
Incident referred TO- merely tells US
that the Master after having made a
"scourge Of small cords" drove them all
out OF the temple, and the sheep, and
the oxen. and poured out the changers
