Certainly they were, u'd you not receive the precious gifts which it bestows? Well, the same autliuruy prom.se yew these greatet blessings now. The same priesthood which be-stowed the Holy Ghost upon you, glad-enin- g you in tiy,, nation 0 the Eanh and which you so gladly .beved, seals upon us these other gifts and they will all be fulfilled in tnen proper time and season, if the conditions are complied wilh, not one word siall fail. We know ihis is the truth and no cunningly devised tale to deceive, and lad us in improper paths. We know N iw br ilners and sisters, we are lieie in possession i f a probation, it is lor us w say whether we shall s order out conduct s to be saved or damned. We are at liberty to use our agency; we can veil i i evil or walk resolutely in ihe way of the Father; exercise our talents and powers to lay the foundation for gl iy r misery in the life to come. God in Ins infinite goodness has givea ns lite, health and time. Can you conceive of any uiessing which he has not given you? Have you ever gone to him with an unsatisfied desire that he has not given you what you have asked for? He best ws light upon Hie ignorant, Comfort on the weary, happiness to he sad.

Snjing: Praiu to lh man who commtioes with Jehova, Jesus anointed that Prophet and scar. GEORGE Q. CANNON. Reported by Mrt, Eu.sn Jakimah. It is most unexpected, my brethren and sisters, that I stand before you to-night. I was just passing through on my way from Manti, when Prest. Peterson proposed that notice should be given, and I stay and preach. I con-sented, and you have responded by coming out tonight. I am willing to speak to you and pray that what I say may be diciated by the spirit ot God. To this end I desire an interest in your faith and prayers, and that the prayer ol Bro. Beal, offered in our behalf may be fulfilled upou me and this congrega-tion. ' I do not know of any enjoyment in my experience, that is equal to the pleasure received from the presence of the spirit of God. It is the appreciation and understand-ing of this blessing that bungs those who compose this congregation here to-night; it is that they may partake or possess this happiness that they came to this meeting. When we partake of the Spirit of God it is more than food, fur food only satisfies our physical wants tnai uuu nas apoKen irom heaven, and that angels have Cume and administered to us. People w.mder that we testily of these things and that ihev are Consid-ered necessary. There is nothing more palpable, than that it was necessity that God should again speak since the professed Church ol Christ was divided into many sects, who, claiming that every other but themselves, were wrong, still deny the necessity of God's word upon the sub-ject. It was an act of mercy to send the true gospel again to man. looking at the results. Joseph Smith was 1 mortal man, with many weaknesses and faults, and yet God chose him to perform tins work There were two ordained at the same time; the other was Oliver Cowdery; but as there mint alw.iyi e a head, Joseph was that head. Tney baptised and confirmed eclt other, according to their instructions, and these acis fraught with such great Consequences prepaied them to open a woik that shall revolu-tionize the earth, and resiore the king dom of God 111 its purity; with the same priesthood, the same power, the same blessings, gilts, prophecy and know-ledge that were with the Chuich as established by Christ. And these signs had not wisdom and excellence tuuse it well, so that it would become a blessing to y m. S unetime oiirchildien ask for or desire that which is not suited to theit years, experience or strength, and we deny them for their good. VVeaie all God's children and He, you may be sore.has given all we are able to bear. When we have knocked, he hai opened unto us. when we have asked we have received. Is there one am ng you who have asked for bread and been given a stone? or asked lor other blessings and been given a scorpion No one will be torced t heaven; if we reach that place we must go of our own volition; we can serve G id or we can refuse to, but if we lollow the path He has laid out He will withold no good thing from us. He will eventually fire us trom the power that nfflicts you, and all this He has t Id you by the voice of his servants. Brothers sud sisters, we have a right to live so near God and in such close communion with him, thai each person shall have a living testimony neither uf them. I should be very uuhappv i( I w is dependant on some olhei person for all mv Knowledge of the will ol G id. if I had u receive everything Irom God through some other person. He has and His spirit satisfies all our spintud vearnings, assuages grief, brings com-fort, and relieves sorrow. We are the most blessed people that is upon the earth Do we appre-ciate our blessings mv brethren and sisters? I know that do not When I think of all God has done for us, the many precious gifts and blessings He has bestowed upon us as individuals and as a commu iity, my language is insufficient to express his goodness toward us. What a great blessing to know that the Lord God lives, and that this is His work, that he has pledged Himself that it shall not be thrown down, nor given to another people; that He has covenanted with us for many great things, if we keep the conditions he has prescribed. Think what a pow-er he has given to poor, weak, erring, mortal man! r He has given us, for the power to baptise in His name, and the man or woman who passes through this ordinance, having first repented, will receive remission ol their fins. Is not this a wonderful pow er, given to us, and hundreds like us Do we appreciate it? Suppose but one man in the world had this power, how far would we tiavel to vet in his reach, to be panakers of this nestinuble bless-ing. We would almost adore worship such a man, deeming it so marvelous, so Godlike, that be had the Dower from the ,UJt w,j uein-v- e until coming ol Jesus himsell to teign for this church has been established nevr-- r to be thrown down. Many will turn avavfromthe truth, not because God wills it, but because thev will not keep their covenants, and walk in the path the Saviour marked out lor them, and through disobedience thev become aliens to His holy sp r t.atid to their cov-enants, lotfeitiug these blessings. Ttiose who thus turn aside are, indeed, in a dieadful condition, after entering into holy covenants with God, through sin going back into darkness. Woe unto them! No persou can conceive tf the misery ot those who furlett their sal-v- a ion. On the one hand is eternal glory, blessings more numerous than the stars in heaven. We who are here and have the privileg OfVoinfl to the temple and here perlormivy"iJ acceptable Work, have die chance b lore us if wa prove laithful of exaltation, eternal lives, pow-ers, principalities, kingd mi. gifts.know-ledg- e and all the blessings of Abraham, Isaacand Jacob, On the oihrrh-in- if we loifeit them wh it will bee una of us?

Even little childien going d wn into the waters of baptism at eight years of age ..re entitled to this. It is our dutv to live so near to God that we m ly know for ourselves wheth-er the church is being led according to His mind and wili, and that He is lead-ing the men whom He has chosen bv His holy spirit, in the way they should go 1 pray for this, as earnestlt as lor any other blessing kneel down and pray in secret, you who are here, that you may know if Pres Peterson, Pres. Beal and Maiben are doing right, and to have that testimony. God will fill the souls ol those who are humble with light and love; t ey may not see angles or the heavens may not be opened unto them but they will be filled with the Hoi Ghost, and we know by that power, that which it testifies of, better than that winch ws soa with our eyes, or hear with our ears. As Pres. Peterson remarked that there area great many voung people here; I beseech you to seek your Heavenly Fatner in your youth. Pray in secret lor the favor of this never failing friend, who will give you your secret desires, peace, j y, smoothing youi pathway be-- r your feet. You shall know that God lives, and you will realize 'hat in many small ways that are known only to your- - God to remit sins through the ordinance of baptism. This power He has given to his ser-vants, the Latter-da- y Saints, for every sinceielv repentant sinner; ami should we value it less because so freely given? That we do not have to travel thousands of miles, or devote our wealth to obtain it? Because God has given this power to thousands, and this blessing is widely spread, should we think it is become common? and should not those who re-ceived it appreciate it? Ifwekcew that only one man upon the face of the earth had the power to confer the gift of the Holy Ghost upon us, after we had re-ceived baptism and remission of our sins, how would we feel towards him? We would travel all over the whole earth, cross oceans and continents, and there would be no limit to our exertions to obtain this blessing. Pilgrims in Mohammedan lands, travel thousands ol miles in order to reach Mecca, by them deemed holv; while Irom Russia many pilgrims go to the Holy Land, the place of our Lord and Saviour's crusi-fixio- n and burial. These people visit these shrines in order to please God and obtain his favor. If they in their ignor-ance, will do so much, what would they not do if they were enlightened, and had all the keys, gifts and powers held by the church in ancient days. These blessities have been given to us. bv their power our sins have been remitted and we have received the Holy Ghost. I am not personally acquainted with you all, but will venture to say, there is not a member here but can bear testi-mony that when they went down into the waters of baptism, they obtained remission of their sins, and a testimony of the same. In like manner, through the revealed ordinance of the laying on ol hands, the gilt of the Holy Ghost. Not one but can bear testimony that their hearts were changed, and love begotten; they were like tew men and women, in feelings and desires. What had formerly been of great importance was gone from them, all their gross and worldly desires, and they were new men and women in the Lord. That which they had formerly desired intensely, was now swallowed up in the work of God. They read the Bible as it were a ne w book, and with a new understanding; as also the Book of Mormon and the book of Doctrine and Covenants. They were filled with love toward their btethren and sisters, and even the love of women was subordinated to this new love. Was this not the case? I know its effects upon myself; kindred, home, friends, were all swallowed up in the love of Jesus Christ. Through this simple ordinance of baptism, going down into the water, a few brief words uttered by a poor weak man, full of imperfections, many of which were plain to you, and yet this glorious result, because God had given him the authority and priesthood; and this was wrought for you. Is this not great? Even greater promises than these have been made to you who have had the privilege of going Into Temples, and you who live near Manti have this op-portunity. What is said to young peo-ple who go there to take upon them-selves sacred covenants? Promises of inestimable worth are made to them.

At Parson on Saturday night, a policeman, Ed. Harper, had hit skull badly fractured by a none " thrown by a man whom he had summoned to help arrest a drunk. This is rather a unique way of dealing with drunks, but possibly an improvrrjent on old methods. Harper will perhaps recover. In order to "boom" a suburb of Ogden the Unin and other Genti e papers have given a great deal of space to quoting the sayings of Brig-ha- m Young on the subject. To giv emphasis to his opinion which was favorable to the- commercial value of that particular locality they personally say of hira: "Brig-ha- Young wat a far seeing man f affairs and his statements about Brief Items of News Hon.

To Whom it May Concern; Press dispatches havi.ig been sent for political purposes from Salt Lake City, which have been widely published, to -- ' the effect that the Utah commission, in their recent report to the secretary of the interior, allege that plural mamm-ies have been contracted in Utah since last une or during the Dast year; aiso that in public d.scouises the leaders of the chutch have taught, encouraged and urged the continuance of the practice of polygamy I, therefore, as president of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- Saints, do hereby, in t ic most solemn manner, deel ire that these charges are false. We are not teaching pjlygamv, or plural marriage, nor permitting any person to enter into its practice, and I deny that either forty or any other number of plu-ral marriages have during that peiiod been sohmized in our Temples or in any other place in the Territory One case has been repotted, in which the parties alleged that the marriage was prel irmed in the Endowment House, in Salt Like City, in the Spring ol 1SS9, but I have not been able to learn wh pteformed the ceremony; whatever was done in this nutter was without my knowledge. In consequence ot this alleged occurattce the Endow-ment house was, by my instuictions.tak-e-down without delay. In as much as laws have been enacted bv Congress forb:uu;ng plural marriages which laws have pronounced con st.tulional by the court of last resop, I hereuy declare mv intention to sub-mit to those laws, and to use my influ-ence with the members ol the church over whicii I preside to have them do like se. There is nothing in my teaching to the church or in tiiose of my ass.x:iaies, during the time specified, which can reasonably be construed t 1 inculcate or encourage pjlyg iniy, and when any elder ot the cnurch has used language which appeared to convey such teacn-in- g he has been promptly reproved.

He was well satisfied with what had been done, and it did not wreck his faith.

William H, King, of Provo, said he was perfectly satisfied with it. That Pres. Woodruf) had given it in all faith and it should be so taken by the peo-ple. Judge Johnson, of Spring City, said: to give the article the weight it should have, it should be sanctioned by a vote of the people at the next conference. Then it would show sincerity on the part ol the people to keep the law. Atty. VVhitecolton, of Provo, said he Considered the question of national interest. That it was the greatest toupde et at that, the Democrats had ever ma.le. Said he: "It is worthy of the statesman-ship of a Bismnrk. The Republicans, (and I am one myself, Mr. Iakeinan)have been playing a fine game, and this com-mj- i pletely knocks them out. Idaho will be Uemucratic, as this Manifesto, in my opinion, makes the Idaho test oath a dead-letter- , and the Cullum-Bi- ll is worth nothing It is a fine thing for the Democracy, and is certainly of na-tional importance."

''It cr ated something of a ri,pie at the tune, but Prof. CluB ' gave a very comprehensive lecture on the subject, illustrating the several poin.s by citing the conduct of Nephi, under similiar circumstances, and the feeling was in a great measure allayed. These sentiments seemed to be those of the entire number included in the con ' veisation. The Rerister also has an opinion Pres.
