Ia the .Interest of the. cause of peace. The meeting urns presided over by his Excellency GoTornor John. C.' Cutler. wbo delivered the opening address. jHe ; said, - In liart: ; , . fP ' 1 ds net need to el youAhat Utah On May ' this called you together Jo order that humanity. It is of paramount importance to the perpetuation and development of our civilisation. It is. therefore, the duty of every good clllsen to lend its active support Bufslnce experience teaches that not only enthusiasm, but intelligent, practical, and persistent work; not only the theoretical assaent to true principles, but an efficient organisation of which such principles are, as it were, the spirit and the soul. Is necessary for the redemption of mankind from the evils of strife and contention, as well as from every kind of evil; therefore, be it Resolved, That, in the opinion of this assembly, ft is the duty of the friends and advocates of peace everywhere to unite firmly for the purpose of cooperating in the dissemination of knowledge among the people generally of the great work that is being done preparatory, we hope and pray, to the dawning of the Milennial day in order that Interest may be aroused in the efforts of statesmen and liberal governments that need support for the peace measures which are now before parliaments and congresses. Be it further Resolved, That, In order to give tangible expression to these views and sentiments, the president of this meeting, his Excellency Governor John C. Cutler, be hereby requested to name a committee consisting of seven members, the governor to act as chair man for the purpose of considering and formulating a plan of organisation, proposing a constitution for a peace society and naming officers said of the proposed organisation; committee to report to a subsequent meeting to be called by the chairman. Be It finally "Resolved, That we, (he members of this congregation, hereby humbly express our heartfelt gratitude to the Rider of the destinies of mankind for the spirit of peace and goodwill that: -- E&US&JSfclii am; tu, SrjEHHfsre tETprapm words' Into spears Into pruning ,hdoka,.that place Is Utah." The governor, hi dosing his eloquent address, said: T take tlris opportunity' of thanking the various local organisations devoted to the cause of peace, for the effective work they have done in this direction. To the ladles forming these organisations the thanks of the state are due. I am sure I voice the sentiment of the people of Utah in saying, in the words of the great Sumner: 'Let the bugles sound the truce of God to the whole world forever.' " Earnest addresses were also made by Mrs. Ruth M. Fox, Rev. Benjamin Young, Hon. John Henry Smith, Rev. Elmer I. Goshen and Mr. J. M. The latter presented the following resolutions: "The cause of arbitration, universal peace and brotherhood is the cause of ploW-ahareskii- d SJo-dah- l. especially under the auspices of the ladies of various organisations.1 In moving the adoption of these resolutions, the speaker said, in part: 1 make this motion because I am convinced that the exalted ideal that has formed the glory of the visions of so many Seers in all ages, and which today stands forth as the goal of the ambitions of statesmen, will never become a reality until it becomes popular; until the masses of the people, enlightened, inspired, enthusiastic, shall take hold of the work In earnest Statesmen and even govern' meqts are Impotent until they truly represent and strive to execute the will of the people. Mr. Foster in his excellent treatise on The Hague Tribunal, expresses the same view." Referring to the history of the peace movement the speaker went on to say: "It Is a notable fact that all through the history of the world we find corroboration of the assertion that the lrayer Rev.

Arbitration was not unknown to them. Sometimes a dispute was submitted to the Delphian oracle. Sometimes a sage of great repute, a citisen of a disinterested state, was asked to settle a controversy. Sometimes the matter waa left to the decision of a friendly state, as In the controversy of Athens and Megara over the island of Salamls, when Sparta waa appealed to and appointed five commissioners to decide the dispute. Then, again, the Greeks had their amphictyonlc federation. The ancient had really advanced very far toward the stage of civilisation we have reached and which has found an expression in The Hague Tribunal. - Why. .then, has not the advance beaapQHtlnual?

"I can remember, and so can some of you, a time when it was generally belleced that no war would ever again stain the earth with blood. We had Just emerged from a terrible struggle. The laborers of the world commenced to unite In brotherhoods and the demand for equality and liberty was followed by enlarged visions of the general brotherhood of man. But It took one man only to dispel the policy-o- f those beautiful dreams and to transform Europe Into a number of armed camps. Iron and blood everywhere! What made this possible, except lack of popular support for the cause of peace? Longfellow beheld a time when: be a name abhorred And every nation that should lift again The hand against its brother, on its forehead Would wear for evermore the curse of "The warriors name would Cain! the dark future, through long generations The echoing sounds grow fainter and then cease, And like a bell, with solemn sweet vibrations, I hear once more the voice of Chris say, Peace!

But beautiful as songs of the Immortals The holy melodies of love arise.' feuds and lynchings, but do not fight each other. Proper organisation can prevent wars between nations as well ns war between cities or federated states. The influential people in a few leading nations can secure peace between nations If the four or five great nations will arbitrate, all the weaker ones will gladly give up the heavy burden of costly armaments Brils of race prejudice and national arrogance. Whatever may be said about civil war or wars In past time, war between nations today la unnecessary and a sin. it never proves which nation is Just; it only shows Which nation is stronger.

One way of preventing attacks on weak countries is to get them neutralised by the nations agreeing never to let foreign troops enter them. A method of punishing nations that break their pledges la to ostracize them by withdrawing diplomats and commerce.' When the nations agree to make this the regular penalty, and all act in concert, the mere threat will be more powerful than all the navies of the world. o 'That," the speaker concluded, "Indicates the work before the friends HYMENIAL.
