SPRINGVILLE, UTAH, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1902. PRICE, $1.25 PER ANNUM, Our Foreign Trade. While our sales to foreign countries' have grown so prodigiously, pro-digiously, the other side of our financial account during these last five or six years has shown no proportionate increase. We have bought from the foreigners an average of only $800,000,000 a year, and that total has shown little tendency to expand. It was this fact, this mighty development devel-opment of our sales, while our purchases were, compel itively. on the declining scale, which piled up in half a dozen years a favorable trade balance so enormous as to startle the world. In the last six years we have sold in merchandise, produce, and manufactures $2,000,000, 000 more than we have bought; while in all our history, from the beginning of the government govern-ment up to six years ago, the foreign, trade balance in our favor had aggregatet a net total of only 383,000,000. The significance of these surprising sur-prising totals was recognized on both sides of (he Atlantic. An analysis of them brought out features more important than the vastnessof the aggregate. Heretofore nir sales had been made up almost wholly of food stuffs and raw materials. Europe was the workshop. Bat that lias changed, and we find, year after year, an astonishing increase in-crease in our exports of manufactured man-ufactured articles, an intense i),at in flic 1 ! I t.

In 1808 our sales of manufactured articles ar-ticles to foreign customers jumped to $290,000,000,1 lie next ear to $339,000,000, the next to $ 431,000,000.

As exports of manufactures manufac-tures increase, oui imports of the handiwork of foreign shops showed an even more rapid decline. de-cline. Our manufacturers were not only invading the foreigner's own markets, meeting him at his threshold with a new conpe-tition, conpe-tition, but they were taking away from him his greatest market, mar-ket, the United States. We have in the last half dozen years been manufacturing for ourselves a vast amount uf goods such as we have been accustomed to buy abroad. Sated Him From Torture.

Meeting House wasfilled to overflowing, Sunday evening to hear Apostle Cowley elucidate the principles of the Gospel from the Mormon point of view. He is a vigorous car nest speaker, and evidently sin ccrely believes the doctrines he proclaiuieB. The following para- graphs will give a brief outline of his discourse. The reason why the young people of Utah do not take more interest in the principles of our faith is because they do not make a careful study of it. My spirit has received just as tangible a testimony of the truth of the gospel, as a shock of electricity elec-tricity is to my physical system. You can demonstrate the truth of the gospel just as truly as you can a mathematical problem. We can retard or accelerate the means of our salvation by the omission of some duty or the commission of some crime. Mormonism is sustained in every particular by the Bible. The Latter Day Saints arc more united in temporal as well as spiritual affairs than any other religious institution on earth. There are 310,000, souls, mem-bers mem-bers of the church iu all the world. God baptized the world by the flood for the remission of the sins of the earth and He set the bow of promise in the heavens to show that the world would never again be drowned. Those who reject the word through Joseph Smith will be under condemnation. Every prophecy uttered by Joseph Smith has been literally fulfilled, far as time will permit. per-mit. Jos.!

Philip Thatcher, The pastor of the Unitarian church of Salt Lake City, delivered a lecture, under the above title, last Friday evening, under the auspices of the Ladies' Home Culture Club, to an appreciative appreciat-ive audience, at the Maccabee Hall. The effort was of inspiring inspir-ing interest, and has seldom if ever been excelled in our City. Asynopsis cannot do the lecture justice, but some of the points are well worthy of recording. He said in part; In the race of life, there must be the course, the start, the competitors and the goal. The course, over which we travel is crowded with competitors called society, which does not consist wholly of those butterflies of fashion, who do nothing but spend their time iu foolish revelry and the disipat-ions disipat-ions of fashionable life, but is made up of those who do something some-thing for the advancement of the world. Much depends upon the start in the race of life. The advantages of being well born can not be overestimated, over-estimated, and while ancestry is a great thing, much depends upon what v.e are ourselves. What a pity children cannot choose their own parentage. Commence right with the child, you cannot deceive a child, it can read your thoughts in your face often times. Be honest with your children, for they are wy absetvirakf r-ord9 and actions, aud great injury is done them at times by the un-concious un-concious examples you set. If you recieve a visitor with smiles and with flattering words, and then talk illy about them alter their departure, you are making hypocrits and liars. First fin 1 out what your child i is beot adapted for in life, what angtd of genius it is in possession posses-sion of, mid then direct its energies en-ergies in that direction and make of it the best that is possible. pos-sible. Don't spoil a good farmer by making a poor preacher or doctor. Do the very best you can iu life, and then make the most of it. If you make mistakes mis-takes don't be discouraged, but try again. Never make the same mistake twice. We all makemistakes, but only fools make the same mistakes twice. Be original, don't be a copy. One should be good every day and our religion should be for every day in the week, for the Lord made the six days as-well as the seventh. In the race of life be sure and have guiding principles, or you will fail. Character is formed slowly, and it should be formed carefully, and all bad habits avoided, for bad habits soon form a chain that binds us like Prometheus to the rocks. The greatest man is the busiest, for idleness is a sin. It is as honorable to be a farmer or carpenter as it is to be a lawyer or preacher. It is not the kind of work we do that counts, but it is how we do it; there are colliers in the pit with souls as white as snow and men working in banks with souls as black as hades. All will fail, who do not lead a temperate tem-perate and busy life. Don't be extravagant, and never live beyond your means, be scrupulously scrupu-lously honest in all your deal ings, prompt iu the discharge of all your duties and true to every trust. Keep a tender conscience and it will keep you, and let your honesty be as apparent as the light, and true courtesy shine out in every act of your life, not kisses on the lips that are daggers in the heart, but the courtesy that comes from the heart. We cannot halt in the race, to halt is to petrify, the tree is dead that adds not a ringto itsgrowth each year. The prizes do not consist in great wealth, alone, though, all other things being equal, wealth is a good thing, but do not think wealth to be the greatest aim in life. A man should be good for its real worth, must study health, for the pleasure of living, construct con-struct a good mind, and keep the esfeetu of all good men, for these are the greatest prizes in life, i I The Last Heard of 11.

Indecent Exposure Barred Recovery. Juds4 Sterling B. Toney of the circuit court of Jefferson county Ky., recently rendered an opinion opin-ion in a queer case. A man was employed last July to sprinkle sprin-kle paris green on potutoe vines to kill lady buggs, und on ac count of the heat he opened his shirt, with the result that he was poisoned by the paris green. He sued his employer, who entered en-tered a demurrer for the following follow-ing reasons: The plaintiff had no right, in foro couscientiae or in foro externo, to make an indecent in-decent exposure of his person while engaged in killing lady buggs; the defendent exceeded the scope of his employment in sprinkling paris green elsewhere else-where than on the potatoe vines, as his special and exclusive agency was to kill lady buggs basking in tho shade of said potatoe po-tatoe vines; the plaintiff's act in allowing the defendents poison to come in contact with his flesh instead of with the flesh of the lady bugs, wa3 unauthorized and ultra vires; the mental and physical phys-ical suffering of which the plaintiff plain-tiff complains was the result of his own wrong in misapplying the defendant's paris green to purposes other than those for which he was employed to apply it, and, besides, it is damnum absque injuria; the plaintiff, in opening his clothes and exposing expos-ing himself to the lady buggs and the paris green, was guilty of contributory negligence; the plaintiff knew as well as the defendant de-fendant that paris green was poisonous, and if he did not know that paris greeu was a poi son then his suit should not have been brought in his name, but by a committee appointed to represent him.
