Everybody's wrong but La Toilette.
ON THE ocToRER HILLS,


The shadows fell among the singing
hills
Blind, gentle hands
That touch the gentle bloom of autumn
lands
With slow, sad thrills
OF memory that so the reckless world
Sang loud and laughed, with pageantry
unfurled,
But yester year
Forget the fear
OF winter and lay drunk with ripened
And new pressed wine,
Dreaming of bygone love and mad
things done
Green crowned with vine.
Blind, gentle hands, upon the years
lost bloom,
Sad. sightless touch
Remember the ancient winters gloom,
And grieving much
That the wild world who lightly sings
today
Must sob tomorrow, old and ashen
gray
And sobbing creep,
Lonely. and deep
Beneath the sculptured silence of the
snow.
Blind, tender hands,
Forgiving where the gray world does
not know
Nor understands

Magazine.

YES, THEY GO.

The Democratic organ of the Mormon
church announces In a scare head
DAILY ALLOWS GAMBLERS TO
GO"
That s true. and not only docs As
sistant city Attorney Daily allow gam
blers to go, but the entire administra-
tion permits and Insists that they shall
go-with warning not to come back to
Salt Lake City until. II ever the church
shall again be in control
No wonder the organs of the church
howl because DAILY allows the gamblers
to go. The Morris administration new
er allowed them to go. IL herded them
In their dives and hell holes They

probably It's prophet
So long as the hundreds OF tinhorns
boosters, thugs and burglars were yield
Ing their tithes TO the ecclesiastical ad-
ministratlon the organs OF the church
were determined that the gamblers
should not go, and 10 that end they pre-
tended that the gamblers were not here
Attorney DAILY and the other officers
OF the city are to be congratulated be-
cause of the wall that goes up from the
church organs, These latter had a
foolish hope that the gamblers would be
requested to remain to form the nucleus
for another ecclesiastical campaign TO
gain control of the city administration.
incidentally IL may be remarked that
IL is naturally surprising TO the church
organs for Daily TO allow the gamblers
to go so long as they had a dollar. The
Morris administration would never have
permitted this. So long az gambler
had the money with which TO get out

should remain and get more money out

ANOTHER QUORUM VACANCY.

| Mariner Wood Merrill apostle OF the
| Mormon church, is dead He was one
| OF the most Intense men of mis- quorum
| Holding supremely to the professions OF
| faith they were enunciated from time
| to time and to the private construction
| which the high authorities Of the
church as Living Oracles were wont TO
place upon doctrines and public demon
strations. he remained from the time OF
his first service as an apostle unUil the
day of his death solely subject Of the
church and kingdom OF God.
Apostle Merrill was OF sturdy stock.
Born in New Brunswick and inhoritor
of the Virile character OF the people who
settled and conquered in that land, he
showed throughout his whole career the
most unyielding nature, According 10
personal statements made by him
which are now recalled. his Joining of
the Mormon church was the result OF n
special vision accorded TO him from on
High At nine years Of age he was
working In the hay field when suddenly
he became unconscious, and before re-
covering his normal sense he had seen
Joseph Smith, Brigham Young. NauVoo.
the Salt Lake Valley. and had realized
the various experiences through which
the Mormon people were TO pass He
became convinced Of the truth of the
religion established by Joseph Smith,
including plural marriage. by the vision
which came to him at that early age.
Ten years later, when he encountered
the Mormon elders he was baptized
With this startling experience, which
seemed TO him a reality, 1t was but nat
ural that Apostle Merrill should be ut
terly regardless of the outside world.
Its opinions. It's conventionalitIes, and
even its Iaws-if those offended against
or sought TO transcend what he be-
lieved was a divine commandment.
1t should always be remembered Of
this man, TO his credit, that he did not
seek 10 cover his religious convictions
and his practices by a cloak of false
hood. He was too brave to lie. and too
honest 10 equivocate. He lived out his
life according to his professions of
faith, a devotce Of plural marriage,
apostle In the church, believer In the
llteralness of a temporal Fingdom Of
God established in these last days and
in these valleys Of the mountains" TO
rule all the world.
Apostle Merrill was extremely
practical man and entirely successful
in business. He had a big heart, he
was intelligentIy benevolent was for
bearing and gentle with mis- neighbols
brilllancy was Justly esteemed as the
possessor OF a powerful intellect. His
memory will be revered in the annals OF
his people.
