sail on prosperous barks along smooth

the entire journey of life, while still

The city editor Of this paper called
upon Mr.. william M. Howell Of this
city yesterday. The latter had just
opened q letter from his father, Cong.
Joseph Howell, who is at present at
Washington, D. G. attending to his
official duties as representative Of the,
people of Utah. The sentiments ex-
pressed in the letter we're SO well put
that they made a favorable impress
sion. With a degree Of reluctance Mr.
Howell allowed us to print the follow
ing extract from the letter.
Il very deeply appreciate the filial
sentiments so fttingly expressed in
your letter. Looking backward along
the pathway Of life, am sincerely
grateful that have been able to avoid
some Of the pitfalls and disasters
which lie along the way. When con-
slider my lowly origin and the hard
conditions and humble environments
OF my early life I must confess that
do feel modest sense OF pride in
the measure OF success which have
achieved. l know and feel that kind
Providence has been over me and led
me through doubt and darkness and
blessed me in many ways. attribute
more my good fortune to an over-rul-
ing Providence and to an earnest de-
sire to do my level best than to any
particular ability or merit that pos
sess. have always felt that the day
won your Mothea' 8 heart marked an
epoch in my life. and throughout all
the years she has proven an angel in
spring me to reach upward and pro-
tecting me from the evils and weak
nesses OF my own nature. In paying
this tribute to her, / must not forget
that the noble sons and daughters
which she has given me as pledges Of
our union have strengthened my re-
solve and whetted my incentive to so
strive as to give them better op-
portunity to work out an honorable
and successful career than had; 7

0oethals. On April 1. the president
has declared that a comprehensive
system Of civil government shall sue

But will Uncle Sam continue to pro-
vide all the comforts for Americans
working for him down on the zone
that he has in the past? Goethals
has not yet made his views public.
But Goethals does believe that
somewhat similar plan shall be fol-
lowed with regard to the sale Of ship
supplies. etc. at the terminals of the
canal. He wants the government to
sell coal. fuel oil and other supplies.
and to make ship repairs for the cost
Of the product plus the price Of sell
ing 1t or operating the shop in ad-
dtion to : very small profit.
0oethals takes the position that the
way to get the ship owners to send
their vessel through the waterway
is to make It apparent that they can
get such service ~ outlined above
cheaper than any place else. That

Washington, March 21.-The visit

heretofore been governed.
And It makes pertinent the query
as to whether the experiment is to
be continued. Uncle Sam wanted
those who built the canal to live
under the best possible conditions.
Colonel William G. Gorgas the man

That which is referred to is often
spoken of as sin against ones self.
and sad to say. much Of the preaching
of this day Is the appeal to self, as
far as sin is concerned, and the
strength Of this appeal Ia in the conse-
Quences of sin that are in this life and
temporal. The words: He that SOW.
eth to the flesh. shall of the flesh reap
corruption" are frequently quoted and
their truth is rarely questioned.
But even In this there is something
forgotten, the consequences of such q
life In the future world. The hell be-
yond this life is not alluded to fire.
Quently. except often in a sneering
way as suggesting the hell on earth
into which SO many fall. There are
many who work along religious lines,
who appear to have very little in view,
except the consequences Of sin as seen
in the present life. Many who are
enthusiastic in the support Of foreign
missions are so simply because they
wish to lift up the heather who live
In huts and caves of the earth into
which they crawl as the wild beasts
crawl into their dens, who are alto
gether unclothed. or slightly clothed.
aud subsist on foods that are not prop
erly prepared, to the comforts OF sani.
tary homes. modern dress. and the
delicacies OF the modern dining table.
The Effect Of Elm on Others.
The appeal here is not as strong as
In the first case. but there are per.
sons who have SO much Of the better
man in them that they really regard
the welfare Of those who are about
them. The husband has regard to his
obligations to his children. and he
provides for their comfort. The son
recognizes that the father and mother
have deepest love for him. and II he
acts in a way that wounds that love
he feels that he has sinned against
them. This Is all very worthy. and 1t
Is proper on certain occasions to call
the attention OF certain persons to
their SHINING In this regard.
Sin Against God.
There Is another sphere that In
these days needs notice. Harry Mon
roe. the man who In years long gone
knew the depths Of sin. but who fol-
thirty years at the Pacific Garden
Mission in Chicago has been the
means of leading hundreds Of sinful
men and women to God said to the

edged with very little thought of God.
Even ones sins against others may
be conceded with very little or no
thought of God. and there are many
men and women who are faithful to
their dependents who do not know
God. But in deeper thinking on sin
practically everything 10 lost II God
is left out. There 10 no proper ap-
prehension Of sin until God is brought
into the foreground. The man readily
says: Yes. I have sinned against
myself. and I have sinned against so
ciety," but when asked II he has
sinned against God he Is dazed. and
is silent. II the man who acknowl.
edges sins against himself and So
ciety. would only think a little. he
would ask the question, "Who estab
lished the law that enforced these re-
sults?" he will soon come to tho
place where he must acknowledge
God, and II he does go. the solution
Of the problem Of his sin is at hand.
David was near that solution when
he said: "I acknowledge my trans.
gressions, and my sin Is ever before
me. Against thee. thee only have
sinned, and done this evil in thy
sight" Job was near 1t when he said:
Behold. I am vile; what shall I an.
swer thee? will lay my hand upon
my mouth" When the prodigal echoed
the words Of David, he was near the
same blessing. The cry: God be
merciful to me a sinner" comes out
Of a clear recognition OF God. No
one can confess his sin and forsake
It without acknowledgment OF God.
This Is properly called conviction OF
sin. 1t is not produced by trial in a
court of Justice. nor is 1t the result
of carrying an abstract proposition
to it's logical conclusion. but to q
sense OF personal wrong doing in the
sight Of God. A great evangelical
teacher OF the last century said that
conviction OF sin involves q sense ot
wrong doing. distress in view OF the
past and an apprehension In view oi
what Is to come. How much OF the
conviction Of the present day contains
these elements?
