fathers and yourselves have known
the tortures of all the hell there ever
has been, is now or ever shall be.
Why will you not see that in the de-
struction of those anarchies against
God and nature, viz, man-made laws
and governments, lies the open way
to peace on earth, good will to man?
In all the records no one can show
where a resort to law or the arbitra-
ment by the sword has ever resulted
in an amicable settlement of any dis
pute. On the contrary, it always in
tensifies hatred. Why not then re-
joice and thank God that he is now
destroying your old enemies and in
viting you to run forward to the en-
joyment of your heritage as typifed
in the life and words of Jesus of Naz-
areth. .-f-
You murmur: oh! / know nothing
about God! Of course we do not. Be
hold we know not anything. We only
think we know, and the more firmly
we think so the greater is our decep-

that we are now being delivered from
the hands of our enemies. Our grav-
en- images, man-made laws and gov
ernments ARE being flung back into
the dust piles of antiquity. Rejoice
then and sing a glad song over our
deliverance from the burden of dead
things. N. Albright.

THE GUIDING SPIRIT

there so much lamentation because
the Lord is freeing you from your
chains? For thousands of years you
have been bound to the dead past, a
world of slaves, two billions of you,
each one carrying pack of dead fol-
lies upon his back. Now, because the
Ruler of the Universe is destroying
all man-made laws and governments,
knocking off the chains that have
held you under those seas of dead
things, you murmur and everywhere
l hear the old cry: What is this world
coming to? How more than assinine
is the stupidity that expresses less
faith in the work of God, now effect
ing your liberation, than in the dew
ilish evils to which you have been en-
shaved for unknown ages? Your his
tories mention but moment of time
regarding the term of your enslave-
ment, but tell in details of the horri-,
BILE and ceaseless tortures to which
you have been submitted.
Everything in nature that your
eyes behold, "other than the works
of man." speak of infinite goodness.
And yet you go meping and groan-
ing about in distrust of the Lord and
murmur: What is this world coming
to? You lament over a prospective

Macedonian question, which is essen

"All these efforts were unsuccessful

A few words regarding the valley
We're spoken by L. +. Howe. and brief
speeches We're made by Messrs. Tall
man and Kettner. and the affair was
closed by Postmaster c W. Collins,
who presided.
Mr.. Tallman's remarks were sugges-
tive and showed intimate knowledge
Of local affairs. but he did moi dis
close the intent Of the department in
dealing With the valley except in very
general terms.
He told of the eomplexity IF con-
ditions that had grown from the 1856
survey marks being lost, and feared
that some injustiees had resulted in
consequence.
He also spoke of the difficulties that
had sprung from the withdrawal of
lands and of the embarrassing per
pleXties in formulating plan for
opening them to settlement. lie said
in the very near future the land on
the East Side south II the Third
standard parallel and under canals
would be restored ON plan which
might not give entire satisfaction. but
which he hoped would work out for
the good of this valley.
The Inference from his remarks was
that somewhat different procedure
might be adopted with withdraw
lands north of the Third Standard. but
in neither ease was there a hint of the
plan Il be adopted
For many months, by correspon-
denee and in person, Interested claim
ants have been urging ON Mr. Tallman
various plans for developing the mesa
land on the East Side. While here he
heard many suggestions on this sub
iect. but in his speech last night he
spoke gnardedly on this subject, and
said he hoped the people of the val
ley would work out some broad con
struetive policy touching the mesa
land either 10 be taken into this ir-
rigation district or a new district To
