HELP IN TIME OF NEED,

During tho last few days two prom.
ment citizens have shown how deeply
they feel for the unfortunate who may
need the services of an able physician
or surgeon, and have not sufficient
means to pay for the skilful work re-.
pulred, by placing in tho hands of the
treasurer OF the Groves /. y. s. hospi-
tai money to nelp such individuals and
provide them with hospital aid. one
handed over $500, with the intimaton
that more would follow as soon az con-
venlent The other donated $3.50 with
the assurance that II the Lord contIn-
the past, he would repeat the contrbu-
tion annually
We mention these generous gifts by
way Of a hint TO others ~ our friends
who might follow the ycflntural adj
vice. go thou and do likewise We
do not mention the names OF the gem
tlemen referred to. a. We understand
that they do not desire notoriety in con-
nectlon with the matter.
We take this opportunity to correct a
wrong impression which apesrs to have
been made upon the minds of great
many people. That Is, that patients at
the l.. d. $, hospital cannot receive the
services Of any medical or surgical
men except those who are attached TO
ka kncvgtaI 4 ghn,t1l hs ,,HIapatnnI
that patients at the Institution may
have the benefit OF professional atten-
ton from their own family doctor, or
nny other skilled practitioner whom
they may elect. Sick people usually
have a preference for some professional
man with whom they are acquainted
and ia whose knowledge and ability
they have fun confidence. That feeling
IS respected by the management at thu
4, ID. $. hospital and patients are not
required to receive treatment from the
regularly appointed physicians and sur.
geons OF the establishment
Trained nurses are employed at this
Institution, and every appliance in mod
ern use Is there available, in addi-
ton TO the most complete arrange
ments for the care and treatment Of
the afflicted that can be had from any
part Of the country. The hospital Is not
erected solely for members Of the
Church, but persons of all faiths and
conditions may receive the benefits
which it offers to tine afflicted, At the
Hamc time the ordinances Of the Church
for the healing of the sick are admlns-
tered there to those who desire such
administration. 1t Is therefore an es-
tablishmcnt specially suited 10 the sick
among the Latter-day Saints, 1t is a
most worthy institution. and should he
aided and supported by members Of the
Church.

DESPICABLE DISPATCHES.

The Chicago Record Herald OF sum
day. November IL. contains a special
from Salt Lake City. dated November
il. which Is similar to other kilograms
sent from this city to different papers
in the East, II contains a number OF
untruths particularly in reference to
the recent municipal election We notice
the article because It Is probable that
the falsehoods, invented by the enc
mics OF the Church in this city, may
have been accepted as true or partly
true by people here who ought TO be
undeceived, The dispatch says con-
corning Senator Smoot;
He has become involved IN bitter
personal quarrel With a fellow apostle.
Charles w. Penrose. editor of the Des-
eret News. the official organ of the
Mormon Church. Penrose had been al-
most savage In his defense of Smoot
prior to their personal breach. Now
the editor Is accused by Smoot Of false
statements"
Then follows lot Of erroneous re.
marks about the election and the man

which contain only very slight cle-

mass Of falschood. Then comes the fol-

PULPIT AND POLITICS.

| IN many parts of the country there
Is earnest discussion concerning the
pulpit In politics Many have a mortal
dread Of the influence OF religion upon
the performance OF civic duties. But
a more rational View Of the subject is
commencing TO prevail People are
learning TO recognize the duty OF the
pulpit to be a spiritual force for right
eousness IN All that pertains to human
society, The Chattanooga Times OF
Oct, 20 contains the following para
graphs on that subject:
"A minister Is not supposed 10 sur.
render his citizenship when he assumes
his clerical functions and 1t is his du-
", of course, TO point out TO his COM
gfegations and especially to his parish
toner's the obligations they owe TO the
state, themselves and their families as
freemen and patriots
There is "A wide difference In the ac-
tivity Of clergymen In engaging IN
mere partisan controversies and In cry
ing aloud for civic righteousness, es-
pecially In municipal contests. AS We
have often declared there should be the

A SHREWD IDAHO PAPER.

The Pocatelo Advance Of November
II says
The Weser signal promises to toll
the truth about the Mormon issue:
tho signal IL 10 be commended for lis
resolution Ia reform IN this respect
That is straight blow from the
shoulder The Signal il Dubois penny
whistle. That is enough to designate
the Kind of truth" It usually tells
about the "Mornons.' It IL not likely
TO emit different sounds while It Is
merely a blowhole for the shifty Sena-
tor
The Advance takes up the reported
'hop-over'' Of Dubois back to the Re-
publican party and dIscredts the ru-
NOR. II gives cogent reasons for the
doubt and points out clearly the two
purposes he has In view as alternatives.
One Is, to chrystalize the anti ."Mor-
mon elements In Idaho in one organl-
@ation So as to form a stepping stone
foi him to another term In the United
states senate. The other is. on failure
OF the first. to cultivate the President
80 as to obtain an appointment to some
commission or foreign office which will
secure him in public life and public pay
The Advance shows that his anti
"Mormonisn" Is simply a means to-
ward che end in view, and a mere con-
venIent theme on which to dilate for an
attraction TO the gealot and the ignor-
ant Dubois is very sly, but his little
game is known. and the Advance Sim
ply shows Il up for a host Of folks in
Idaho who are ION TO IT," The Ad-
vance editorial is well worth reading.

| ] and return to my dear native land, look
back with mingled feelings to medley of
experiences: some reminiscent of much anxiety,
WEAKNESS and depression, while others, and these
happily many, not only pleasant to dwell upon,
but occasionally even provocative of mirth. A
warm glow suffuses my being when l recall the
many friendly hands stretched out in greeting as,
after long years of soulcrushng exile, l stood
again my native shore-while innumerable mes
sages overlooking with sympathy and kindly feel
ing as balm to open wounds.
However, with the much priced liberty, the rest
and peace for which, during the many years of my
prison life had ardently longed, seemed as far
away ever, for soon realized that it devolved
me, without loss of time, to provide both my
self and my mother with the necessaries of life,
not to speak of possibly making provision
for the future Naturally, under the circumstances,
the task that doomed before me seemed beyond my
strength, and l regret that time has done little to
mitigate the prospect.
Except in body, | not yet free woman.
Real or imaginary obstacles meet me at every turn
and how grievously l found myself hampered in
my first essays to realize myself in my environ

they failed to realize how stGange a thing the life
SO natural to them had become to me- nor was it
easy for them to understand how the unbroken

the volume of sound and the perpetual movement
about me, and CROPPED in vain for old-time land
marks by which to steady and arrange my ideas,
thoughts and feelings, now all thrown into in
extricable tumble by dread of the canor-
Gus unknown. There were SO many things had

greater transition be imagined? Ny first reaction
when from the limitations of cell
walls l found myself in the lirnit1ess expanse of
ocean. Two opposed feelings sought for mastery.
One moment it seemed though l must needs
expand the farthest reach of space, and then in
fear of losing my identity, or of coming to some
bodily harm, | would suddenly shrink into myself
and feel the old prison walls close about me. Not
only my faculties benunbed but my eye
sight long adjusted to the contracted cell space,
required to be extended and refocused, and it was
sometime before it became adjusted to proper
placing of objects in perspective.
How shall words describe the sensations pro-
duced by my first view of the harbor and city of
New-York? As the steamer like some monster
bird, foated gracefully up the lovely bay and the
wonders of the great city unfolded themselves,
l stood as one transported. At the sight of the
Statue of Liberty my heart gave great bound,
for did it not embody for me all that makes life
worth living? And the noble ship drew nearer
her goal, how charmingly Governors Island,
clothed in verdure nestled against back
ground of awe-inspiring sky-scrapers, all combin-
ing in scene surprising my widest imaginings.
But whatever of mountain calm rcpose the
citys uplifting exterior may present for the be-
holder at distance, all is instantly changed the
moment the traveller passes within Immediately
he finds himself the center of Undesirable tur-
