NEVER TRY TO GET EVEN

Some people seem to have no other
aim In NE than to "get even with
real or fancied opponents. The Pc
orla Herald Transcript has the follow
ing thoughtful reflections for the benefit
OF individuals with a disposition to-
wards hatred Of their fellow men;
Nobody has ever yet accomplished
anything by trying to get even. The
man who makes u his business to
aVenge real or fancied grievances very
soon becomes unpopular. He soon
succeeds In making nuisance OF him
self. He loses his friends one by one
or converts them into enemies. He Is
unable 10 make new friends for the
reason that he has turned on the men
who were once his friends and no
other man who knows the clrcum-
stances Is willing to trust him or de-
slrous OF having anything 10 do with
him Such man soon succeeds In
erecting a moral quarantine about
himself that nobody cares to pass.
1.-THE moving spirit In nature OF this
sort Is an overwhelming egotism. The
man who makes a practice of airing
his grievances before the public Is a
man with AN overwhelming sense of
his own Importance. He Tugs his petty
spites and his personal grievances into
| the presence Of every man he asso-
ciates with and It II not long until
no man cares to associate with him for
this reason

WHAT ARE THE FACTSl

The Spokesman Review, published
at spokane, Wash. In recent edl-
torial, IN which It's anti Mormon
sentiments are but III concealed
makes this assertion. The large
mass of testimony taken by the SEN
ate committee investigating the
charges against him lSenator Smootl
confirmed the assertions made In re-
gard to the attitude Of the Mormon
Church on polygamy'
This Is simply Il misstatement OF
facts. The opinion Of the minority
of the committee Is entitled TO Just
as much consideration as the opinion
of the majority OF that committee,
and, seeing that the two are in open
conflict, II Is simply misstatement TO
say that the charges have been CON
iirmcd.'
In the statement made by the mi
nority, the following figures were
given:
In 1890 when the Manifesto was
promulgated there We're In the MOI
mon Church, according to Church
statistics, In the United States some
2l5l polygamous families In May,
1902, this number had been reduced
TO S97. How many are left and now
many OF them are In Utah 1t Is i'm
possible to say, but probably about
500 would be fair estimate. Many
of the heads of these families are OF
advanced age. The population of
Utah at the present time Is about S0O,-

The subject Of church government Is
treated IN way quite different from
that usually followed by our writer's.
Almost every paragraph Of the main
topic Il coupled with something the stu
dent is already familiar with. The
author has not gone outside Of the Les

confined the subject mostly TO the local

ment The various points OF the text
are brought out By short reviews and
questions. and each lesson is followed
by s'Hints For Practice, which are
suggestions for practical work for
members Of the Lesser Priesthood
among the people in line OF their re-
spectlyc cnlllngs. These hints should
prove valuable

LACK OF MINISTER'S.

A contemporary notes editorialy
that the Southern Presbyterian church,
short time ago set apart day ON
which to pray for more ministers, It
seems that that church has a shortage
Of preachers, there being about 3,l36
churches IN the denomination. with
only Sil ministers. There would then
be over 1000 churches without pastors,
1t Is pointed out, further, that last
year only forty-three young men en-
tered the ministry, while thirty-ntne
ministers died. The situation Is con-
sidered very grave. Hence the decision
to have q day of prayer for more min
listers. The cause OF the shortage Is
said to be the extreme conservatism
of that particular denomination
This is certainly peculiar condi-
ton, but IL the wants of the church
cannot be- supplied in any other way,
why not try to conform to the rules
laid down in the Word OF God? The
Apostle Paul In his first letter 10 the
Corinthians says; How Is It then,
brethren When ye come together,
every one of you hath a psalm, hath
a doctrine. hath tongue, hath a reve-
latlon, hath an Interpretation. Let all
things be done unto edifylng." Now,
It seems to us that II this dlviney
Inspired advice were followed, there
would be no shortage Of ministers. nor
would the people lack instruction or
edlfcation, II they would LET the Holy
Spirit dictate the conduct OF their
meetings, and not depend upon a
special caste, or class, for the exist
ence Of which there Is no authorization
