very war that the Prophet Joseph
Smith prohpesied would cover the
earth, when there would be no peace
found anywhere. and people would
fee to Zion in the mountains for
safety; there would be such confu-
sion and difficulties that people would
be glad to come to escape from the
dangers Of all kinds that threaten the
world. Already there has been war
in Mexico that has caused our PEG
pie to flee to the United States.
We cannot be too prudent in saw.
ing grain, and in fact everything that
can be kept that would supply want.
Beans, for instance. are capable Of
being kept an indefinite length Of
time. 1t used to be that wheA men
went to sea on long voyages, for six
or seven years, beans were the staple
article they carried with them.
/ feel that we as the women of Zion
cannot too strongly urge the, neces-
sity Of being prepared to assist 9TH
ers and take care of those who may
come to us for relief and assistance
in the days of trouble, that seem now
to be drawing near, and are seen
through the dark shadows that are
threatening famine which nearly al
ways follows when great wars pre-
vail. We much be on the alert to as
sist in every possible way and by all
the means in our power. not only ma
terially, but by our faith and prayers
to give relief in every way possible,
as the name Of our society implies.

c. c. ooopWIN's COMMENT
ON THE CONVENTION
In an editorial headed. The Repub-
lican Nominations" Judge c. c.
Goodwin, SO long the editor Of the
Salt Lake Tribune and at one time a
pronounced anti-Smoot man. candid
ly admits that Reed Smoot Is man
Of ability, entitled to the honor OF
a denomination. Coming from the old
warhorse of the Kearns' forces, this
tends to prove that Senator Smoot
through his recognized talents as a
national legislator, is overcoming
much of the early prejudice which
was directed against him from GER
tain quarters and is winning support
from men who at one time were bit
teyly opposed to him.
Judge Goodwin says:
'Ihe nominations in the convention
on Tuesday of Senator Smoot, Super.
intendent Of Schools Matheson and
Judge McCarty for the supreme bench
were just as they should have been.
Senator Smoot has through his
hard work grown to be one OF the
very ablest senators in congress. and
according to both Republics \ and
Democratic testimony he is the most
faithful worker in congress. An the
time, too, he has been faithful to his
party and to the best interests OF his
state and country. He deserved the
honor of nomination by acclama-
ton.
THE mantle of the late lamented
of schools, Nelson.
fell upon Mr.. Matheson. and
he wears 1t with perfect grace. He
fully deserved the honor of the NOM
nation.
"As to Judge McCarty. his nomma.
ton was foregone. He has been on
the bench for years. his ability, his
perfect faithfulness and absolute fair
ness have never been for q moment
Questioned by political friend or en-
envy. -
That he would and ought to be
nominated was all the time thought |
Is good as settled. In those nomin-
ltlons the convention merely ratined
he will of majority Of all the peo-
lie Of the state. Ogden Standard.
