something is the human soul
which, when rightly developed
and guided, will lift man up to
God. Therefore, | assert positive
ly, where the gospel of Christ is
fearlessly and justly proclaimed,
then their ignorance would be torn
up root and branch, and wrong
would give way to right. Ignor-
ance is darkness. Nothing strong
has ever eminated from darkness.
Whatever has been born therein
has always presented sickly hue
or appearance. So ignorance is a
menace to civilization. The more
intrenched it is in a nation, the
more difficult it is for the wheels
of civilization to revolve.
! Hence nothing tones up more
the system of government;
nothing produces more regularity
in all of its varied functions, the
heart, the veins, the arteries and
the capillaries, and nothing makes
it more solid and more promising
than the general diffusion of use-
full knowledge than general intel
ligence, a sure prop to its founda-
ton. The substantial fruits of
| the nation are the direct out
growth of the forces of general
intelligence. Yes. my friends,
general intelligence has always
, been a friend to a nations best
veal. Ii blesses, it does not curse,
the human families. 1t enables
man to build wisely the founda-
ton of his secular and spiritual
life.
The time-test of the strength of
thing is determined by the ef-
fects it produces in the world.
What laurels deck its brow!
What victories crown its efforts!
What sons of poverty whose
hearts it has gladdened and
whose feet it has placed upon the
pedestal of undying glory! What
sons of treasured wealth it has
enabled to uplift the weak! What
seers it has made! What martyrs
it has saved from oblivion, whose
graves it decks with the choicest
flowers and whose momory grows
greener with the passing years!
What grand institutions it has
made possible and now fosters!
What rich blessings it has treas
ured up and passed down to the
living! What giant intellects,
what pious men and women it has
made possible! What a century
rich in the gems of the past, re-
splendent in the glory of its in
fancy it, too, has made possible.
These, all these, are but few of
its magnificent triumphs. Still
are these not sufficient to make
the generations now living more
hopeful of grander achievements
in the future?
Therefore, the people, the
thoughtful people, of this nation
and extensive country will always
foster school, both public and
private, and also churches. They
will maintain these that the better
natures of man may be rightly
cultured and exemplified in prac-
teal life. They will aid these
that patriotism may grow, send
ing its roots deep down in the soil
of Americanism and it's branches
upward, beneath which the sons
and daughters of this country may
find rest, and from which may
take renewed inspiration. They
will nourish these that anarchy,
secretly Matching out lawlessness
against our existing customs and
institutions, and thus perverting
the youth and that treason, veiled
: in pretended patriotism for this
country, may grow less and less
that crime and vice may be di-
: minished more and more; that all

EXCUSED WITHOUT BOND
Were Clarence and Charley Jones
---Arrested by Misunder-
standing of Officers.

At the examening trial of Clarence
and Charlie Jones held before Judge
Miller last Friday to inquire into
the disturbance at Horse Branch
the Sunday night preceding, report
of which appeared in THE REPUBLI-
CAN last week, quite a different phase
of the case developed to that first
reported, and the entire trouble or
disturbance seems to have occurred
by reason of an accidental discharge
of a revolver and a few other circum-
stances misunderstood by the boys
as well as the officers who attempted
to arrest them.
Their father, an exceedingly nice
man, was here at the hearing and
took them home with him with the
understanding that if the grand jury
which convenes next Monday, indicts
them, he will at once return them.
But as matters have developed there
will probably be nothing more done
with them.

DENOUNCED MORMONS,
Senator KearnS Pays Respect
to Their Church.
Declares that 1t Has Violated
the Statehood Com
pact.

Washington, Feb 2S.-ln the Sem
ate to-day Senator Kearns, Republic
can from Utah, made a sensational
speech. He said that he was on the
eve of retirement from the body and
that there were some words of warn
ing and explanation that were in
his heart, and to which he must give
utterance.
He then made an attack on the
Mormon church, and hierarchy, in
which he declared that they were
traitors to the Government, and de-
served to be put down with the
strong hand. He said that Utah
secured Statehood by entering into
solemn compact with the rest of
the people of the United States and
the States of which the Union is
composed, to discountenance and
suppress the practice of polygamy.
This compact was made by the lead
ers of the Mormon church and ac-
copied by the entire body, and it
has been willfully and frequently
broken. The practice of polygamy.
he said, was open, and shameless,
and the men who have a plurality of
wives do not suffer in the respect
of the Mormon portion of the COM
munity on that account. Officials
of the State are polygamists. officials
of the districts and counties are po-
lygamists, and Representatives and
Senators elected to the Congress of
the United States. are polygamists,
and no apostle of the Mormon church
has publicly or privately protested
against the violation Of the compact
which was entered into by the Nor
mon church for the suppressing of
this infamous practice.

Dear Editor and Friends: Hoping
you may find interest in our work
over here | can send you the latest
news of our school. We have, with
two sub-schools, an enrolment of
over five hundred pupils, and expect
to bring this number to six or seven
hundred before April vacation. /
have only three assistants so you can
see how much over worked we are.
Also, it is next to impossible for the
Board of Education to supply the
constantly increasing demand for
books. We are learning few good
songs and there seems a decided tai
ent for music and drawing.
A man recently had some dispute
in the hills about someone:else's
chicken. He was carried into town
a few hours after. The blood had
clotted nicely. The attending sur
geon washed away part of the blood
and put leaves over the wounds.
Under his skillful care the patient is
recovering. He is sleeping on a
bamboo floor under a house. | sup
pose the owner has the chicken.
On Sunday morning every one
goes to church, the women kneeling
in front during all the service or
maybe sitting on their heels part of
the time. The men in the rear al
ternately kneel on their handker-
chiefs or standing, as the service
may require. There are two bench
es for the Presidente and mobiles, of
course. including 'm@stros" when
they attend.
Our market day is Sunday and
there are many cock fights in the
afternoon, with much drinking of

Our richly clad mountains, heavily
capped with fogs and clouds, when
lighted by a lurid tropical sun, show
many beautiful colors and rest and
please the wearied eye, but when
these fogs descend and wrap you in
chill humidity and wiring every joint

EXTREME PENALTY
Given A. T. Nall For Improper
Proposal to Mrs.
Ward.

I'VE the jury find the defendant
guilty and fix his punishment at a
fine of $50" was the verdict of the jul
ry in the case of the Commonwealth
against A. T. Nall. charged with us
ing insulting language or making an
improper proposal to Mrs. Inez
Ward.
Nall conducts a saloon on the cor
of Center street and Apple Alley and
Mrs. Ward is keeping a boarding
house on the same block. She said
when testifying in the trial: 81

April; have known Nall only short
time; have known of him a long
time. | was passing his saloon on my
way home about three weeks ago,
it was about ten O'Clock in the fore
noon. Just as was about opposite
the entrance door to the saloon, Nall
stepped from the doorstep to the
pavement nearly in front of me and
asked me if he could see me private
ly that evening. He had been hang
ing around my front door for long
time, and has in the night time look
ed through the glass front door be-
side the blind. | understood his Ian
guage, taken in connection with his
conduct, to be insulting, and an i'm
proper proposal to me-"
This is in brief the evidence on
which the above verdict was based.
Nall never took the witness stand
nor introduced a witness in his own
behalf.
The court room was fairly full at
the hearing of the case, which has
certainly created quiet sensation in
Hartford, and most every one pres
ent approved the verdict and pro-
nounced it a just one and not few
were heard to remark that amore
severe punishment should be provid-
ed in such cases.

dent in the unequivocal command to

Of strength Of the United States Gov
eminent that has seldom been equal
ed. The Standard Oil Company is
one of the most powerful industrial
and financial institutions in the world
with ramifying interests in banks,
railroads, lands and great insurance
companies, and when the United
States undertakes to investigate
this company il is not to be imagined
where the work will end. The res
y olution, however introduced by Rep
resentative Campbell, of Kansas,
and which has given that heretofore
obscure young man fame in single
night, appeals to the popular imagi-
nation already quickened by the
magazine and newspaper articles
that claim to have been expositions
of the condition in the great trust
organizations. Mr.. Campbell is in
sistent for criminal prosecution Of
the company, and in response to all
interviews asserts that he has the
material in hand to prove every
charge which he made before Com
missioner of Corporations Garfield,
and that these, he believes, will
make action by the Department OF
Justice an imperative requirement.
Whatever the end Of this investiga-
ton, and no average mind can be-
gin to see the end, Mr.. Campbell has
set for Government the biggest task
it has undertaken and though the
House, without respect to party was
eager to adopt the resolution offered

At this writing the closing argu-
ments in the tedious impeachment
proceedings against Judge Swaye

the people breathe sigh of relief
that the affair will soon be over.
Never, perhaps on any business has
the senate been more closely confin-
ed for longer time. Constituted
, as court every lawyer among the
Senators, and the majority Of the
Senator's are of that profession, felt
the necessity of hearing all of the
testimony which they were to consid-
er in their decision. The witnesses
have been for the most part uninter-
esting, and the testimony has been
painfully wearisome. Realizing the
mass of work that had accumulated
' and was waiting to be done, the Sen
ators have chafted under the tedious
taking of testimony and have been
fairly free in their self-denounce-
ment for having so blithely under
taken the business at this time.

THE MAN WHO FEELS.

The man who feels is happier wight
Than the man who is allous and cold,
For if he weeps in the gloom of night,
He laughs in the sunbeam's gold;
And if the tide of his life runs low,
1t reaches the SUBMITS of cheer;
He knows the heights, as the depths below,
And he smiles through pitying tear,
And after it all. when all is done,
The world has most of the gladdening
For the twilight fingers when day is
DONE
And the suns bencdiction is dear.
The man who feels is happier far
say it again and again
Than ever can be, or ever are,
The ptiess sons of men,,
For if he sighs for his own gray woes,
He sighs for anothers, too;
If the plant of pain in his bosom grows,
1t is covered by sympathy's dew.
And after all, when all is said,
Still pity and love forever are wed;
That the heart unfeeling is chill and
Is true, and forever is true
The man who feels is a dear Gods gift
To Il sorrowng, Travelling world;
BY the hands that the burdens of life uplft
is the flag of our peace unfurled
We need not the souls that are callous as
fate.
And selfish, and welded to greed,
But the pltying tear for our fallen estate
We need and we ever shall need.
And after it all, when all is past,
lis the deed of love that alone may
last,
And the rest is chatf in the winnowing
blast,
In the garden of life weed.
