SWING OF THE PENDULUM.

The determination Of the new Rus
sian Parliament to request OF the
throne, among other things, the i'm
mediate abandonment of the death
penalty for all offenses, criminal as
well as political" is chiefly note
worthy as measuring the full swing OF
the pendulum. Torture and homicide
have been the mailed fists OF the Ro-
manoffs throughout too many bloody
generations for this bold request to
be received as other than grim, gray

WHY 1T SHOULD REMAIN.

Some Of the yirutnt opponents OF the
Church OF Jesus Christ Of Latter-day
Saints who seem determined not TO
recognize as done In good faith any
thing That Is performed by that body
even II 1t is fully In accord with that
which has been demanded as a conces-
sion 10 the prevailing sentiment and the
laws Of the land are endeavoring TO
make anti-"Mormon' capital out of the
continuation OF the appearance Of th'
revelation on celestial marriage in the
Book Of Doctrine and Covenants OF
the Church. We notice that the Reor
ganlte leaders and their weekly paper
echo this complaint, and try 10 make
not sincere In It's declaration against
further plural marriages, This Is a
very poor excuse for their denuncia-
items and shows how little reason they
bring 10 bear In their polemcal attacks
upon the Church founded by the Proph-
ct Joseph Smith and which they, above
ell other denominations. take delight in
assaling and maligning.
The revelation referred to is prlnci'
paily on the subject Of the eternity Of
the marriage covenant. The chief pur-
port Of that communication from on
high Is the essentially of an everlasting
union Of the sexes In holy matrimony
u Is shown that all contracts. cove
nants and obligations entered into UNI
der human laws and ceremonies have
an end at the death OF the parties
thereto. AZ the marriage ceremony
common to all Chrlstendom expresses
II. the contract between the man ana
woman united thereby is until death
does them part" II extends no FUR
ther than the grave. Death brings not
only the dissolution Of their mortal
bodies, but Of the family associations.
The husband and the wife, the par
ents and the children are separated as
much as are the body and the spirit
az man.
The authority conferred by divine
revelation upon men holding the keys
of the Priesthood Is to perform ordin-
ances Instituted of heaven. for time
and all eternity. That which they
seal on earth s sealed in heaven. This

Christ upon his Apostles when he lived

Gospel OF His kingdom when It was re-
fcwed In the latter days All that was
held by Peter. James and John In the
first century OF the Christian era. was

Prophet IN the nineteenth century and
bestowed by him upon the Apostles OF
the last dlspensatlon. A marriage en-
tered into and sealed by the holy spirit
Of promise. according to the revelation
and commandment OF the Most High, Is
binding not only for this life. but for
that which is TO come and Is intended
