II Brother Brigham is not OF more con-
sequence TO you than your brother or sis
ter. or father or mother. or anything else
that pertains to this life, I would not

mon by Heber G. Kim ball in Salt Lake tab

courses. volume l. page 295.
AS God is, so man may become, :"
IS the gist of one item Of doctrine put
forth by the priesthood Of tho Mormon
church at the present time. And it
appears that man may rise to that sta.
tion upon this earth, provided only he
come to be the chief among the DO
lygamous cult and the ruler over all
the saints
That this man worship is a common
practice in the church may be noted
IN the devotion paid to the present
head of that organization. There is
not member Of the church in all the
world who will deny that President Jo-
seph +. Smith is sinful mamie has
personally admitted it, and the saints
are compelled of necessity to accept his
word. But they go ON paying tribute
to him; they give to him their highest
feaity; they honor his pristhood; they
Gguratively strew his path with flowers

PUSHING THE CITY ALONG.

the energetic and benefcent control OF
the American party. there is something
new doing every day.

And so it goes right along. The
American administration is energetic
and efficient in making the city a
metropolis. And it is helped in this
by the great and steady increase of
newcomers, attracted hither by the
pleasant and patriotic news that was
flashed throughout this country on the
night of the municipal election of No
Vembcr, 1905; and repeated on the
night Of the same event in November.
1907, that Salt Lake City was done

the charge of capable; honest, country
loving men.

THEIR MoNoPoLIzING GREED.

In an editorial, under the caption.
School For Nurses printed in its
issue of Tuesday, April %, 1909. we
find that the Deserct News gives an
outline of the requirements made upon
applicants for training in that school.
1t is noted that the church organ skins
over most of the rules laid down, in
very brief form, and in its own Ian
guage; but it was careful TO give to
the following announcement prominent
place IN paragraph all by its lonely
self:
ing School are sold by the Desoret News
Book store. at Salt Lake City. Utah. and
the applicant must be prepared to pur-
chase books as needed.
And IT was but day or two before
this announcement was made by the
News thai this same organ of the Nor
mon lord accused the American people
here Of seeking to draw a line of dis.
tinction between communic9uts of the
Mormon church and those who do not
worship at the polygamous shrine.
The school for nurses to which the
Deseret News calls attention is of IL
self worthy undertaking, and is at
tached TO a church medical and surni-
cal institution which will do its share
Of good III the world. But the News

pursued its grab-all for the church pol

from 1T today or tomorrow that the un-

lines of distinction between non Nor

industrial intercourse between these
people; that, bravely and alone, it has
from the beginning begged for peace
and fought for it when begging ceased

them the service of extending a help

THE STATE ENcAMPMENT,

The annual meeting of the Grand
Encampment, G. A. r., of Utah, five
posts represented with one hundred
and twenty-five delegates attending,
held in this city yesterday, was of uni
versal interest. The coming of the Ma
tlonal Encampment. together with the
presence Of Grand Commander Nevius,
added special attraction to the annual
session. and brought out full repre-.
sentation.
Naturally, the preparations for the
National Encampment was the engross-
ing theme, and the talk of Grand Com
mander Nevlus was chiefly devoted to
mat subject. He is enthusiastic in bis
estimates Of attendance. but he has
better plans Of estimating what that at
tendance viii be than has anybody else
For he hears from the posts and from
the public all over the country on this
point. and his estimates are entitled TO
convincing consideration. When, there
fore. he says that everywhere the talk
is of coming TO Salt Lake during the
National Encampment and that there
Will be from $4,000 to 10000 people
here or that OCCASION; that there will
be more people in attendance from
Western States than at any other Ma

method has always prevailed here. 1t
is true that the church boycott is in.

But the spirit of it still rcmains--the
disposition is still TO absorb all profits

disadvantage of Gentle concerns.

MILK AND BUTTER ORDINANCE.

The Council acted fully up to the cx-
pectations of the Salt Lake public in
promptly passing, at its session of
! Wednesday evening, the prehensive
and protective ordinance regulating the
purity and healthful supply of the milk
and butter TO be sold in this city. This
new ordinance was passed without
| opposition, and clearly il is well
grounded and guarded at every point.

especial reference to The conditions of

any radical changes. this hope being
based on the trust that some at least
OF the milk and butter dealers have
been honest and conscientious in their
supplies. and that the milk had from
them has been pure and the butter
wholesome
The doctors have given voice 10 com
plants, sometimes loud and bitter,
against the milk supplied TO the public
of this city. These complaints, as was
natural and proper. coming from the
source they did, have had weight rrl-
marilv in inciting the Council to pass
the ordinance. and also in shaping il
so as to guard strictly against the sale
Of any impure or unwholesome milk in
this city.
More complaint, however, has been
heard of the butter than of the milk
supply. Well grounded statements have
been publicly made that filthy grease
has been imported here by the barrel,
and worked up with new cream in the
creameries, and put on the Salt Lake
market as ffresh creamery butter
