which have been sent to the civil de

As we said before, the alleged rea.
son for the persecution in Sweden is
the impression that our missionaries
are preaching plural marriage and en-
igation. This is false. II is just as
false as the accusations against the
Lord were, though they brought MIN

from the antiMormon headquarters in

speak effectively, prefer to keep ST.

side believes about Utah. But the real

Enemies of Light" and therefore the
enemies of the missionaries that bring
to the people that truth which makes
them free.
But what about the treaty rights?
That is a question in which the Am
erican people at present are interested
because OF the fragrant violations of
the treaty of 1882 by Russian authorl-
ties. The American people are not in
favor of continuing an exchange OF
agreements with ma
ton that undertakes to discriminate
against American citizens because oil

clearly understand the
popular sentiment that is back of the
demand for the abrogation of he
lection here to the expulsion of any
one who breaks he laws of Sweden.
II missionaries are law.breakerS, tany
deserve to be expelled, for their duty
is TO he examples to the people in
everything that is good and laudaOle,
huS when the government permits a
bigoted clergyman, himself STEPPED in
to make false accusations .hd

religious grounds as in the case If

outrage against the American senti-

WHO'D SWAT THE FLY
IN THE WINTER TIME?

Its. all very well
And it's perfectly right
And it's just and 1t should be so.
When the summer is here
And the fly is near
That a-swatting we should go
That he's a pest
Is sure no jest
For he buzzes and worries us so.
And he carries disease
On his wings and knees
There's no end to the mischief he'd do
So swat him | say
Nor let one get away.
It's deed of valor you know
But who is there here
With heart lost to cheer
Who'd hunt the poor fly in the snow
If he crawls in crack
And lays on his back
And turns his cold toes to the sky
Would you climb on chair
And capture him there
Or wait till he's warm and can fly?
Oh! Withhold your hand
No American man
Would a deed of such injustice do
And give the poor fly
At least a fair try,
Let's wait till the winter is thru

a view 10 ascertaining, we presume,
whether II would be safe to expel
them. Pastor Aslev is said to be the
