- To us of the Southland who
bravely dealt herruloan bloww for
tlie sacred caufce of 'iberty, who
suffered defeat ouly when our bra
vest and beat had bathed with then
heart's blood the land that gave
thorn birth, who remember the de
vastating march of Sherman, when
Untold wealth was destroyed, state
ly And handsome houses given to
the flames, women terrified and al1
of the grim, ghastly, hideous scones J
of helllah war were an acted hero;
there can be but thfl,/ deepest and
"tenderest sympathies for the liners.
These Boers soem to bo a simple,
God fearing, biblo roading people.,
Fighting for hearth and home and
llred by a noble patriotism they
have thus far withstood Lh?Bfilish,
and commanded the admiration
and respect of the world. Fighting,
bleeding, dying, they represent lib
_ etty and with their boat blood arc
../writing ono of the moat glorious
pages to be fouud in human histo
ry? and demonstrating to u in a in -
mon-loving world that sublime
heroism belouga to the man of to
day as well as it did to the Greeks
of old, the Anglo Saxon of the mid
dle ages, or the soldier who follow
ed the starry crops under the im.
.mortal Lee.
What will bo the ouloomy^f the
war is locked up in the inserhtable
future. The British have thus far
been unable to crush the llcers.
May the Gjxt of Battles shield and
protect them against their encodes.
What Next?
When the c&to of Roberts, ilro
* Mormon, wir being arguod In tho
Congress of the Untied States the
other day, and this latter day saint
with the many wives, apoko In Iti
vor of his being allowed to retain
his seat In that august body, wo are
told that he was applauded by wo.
men.
Wo have gotten u*ed to bloyole
skirts* women lawyers, women doc- 1
tors and woman's rights in all of it*
diversified aspects, but wo must
... confess that we were n little taken
aback when Roberts received the
countenance nnd support of women
within the walla of the National j
Capitol. Christianity has ennobled
and beautified the lifo of the weak
er sex. Its teaching have made
the family olrole what it 1m to day
with woman as its sweetest guld- '
ing spirit. The lasclvlouiineHA of
mormonlsm, its suro and certain
degradation of women, make it
loathsome and repulttlye in ail right
thinking people. Then surely these
were not women who upplaiided
Roberts, but devils in the female
form sent by the Prlnee of Dark
ness to blacken the fair fame of the
geatler, tenderer sex. The devil
is still up to his old pranks. What
next?

The llciuuu Why.
The following from an exchange
gives Rome of tho reasons for the
talk of hard times among noma of
the people While there may be
some exageration in it there is also
considerable truth :
We let our timber rot and buy our
plough-stocks, singletreea. axe han
dles hoe handles and fenciug.
WTe throw away our ashes and buy
soap and axle grease.
We give away our l>eof hidos and
buy hamestrings and shoestrings.
We waste uur manure and buy
guano.
Wo bny garden seed in the spring
nnd cabbage in tho wiutcr.
We let. our ianda grow up in weeds
and boy our brooms. \
We waate the wax out of pur pine
and gam treeeand bny ehewihg gum
for oar children.
We build acbool bouses and hire
teachers and aend our children off to
be educated. * S .
