II vou are affl ct-- be of gooj cheer. A we now look bjck upon Zi n' Camp and the Bailallion. so tins time ol tual will slut e out in luture days. How hard it seemed ill those days o! waul and cold 011 the eve ol a desperate louiney. when the rljwer ol our strength was d nuud-ed(an- d we all believed th call had been prompted by the evil leeling of the tin Godly) to goon an expeiitioti lotion the M xicans, and assist the United States to acquiie territory. How haid it was fur the wisest to see the hand ol God 111 it. and for the most f.itliful to theeifuiiy consent that it should be dune an.J 1 ot one I will venture to av, under-stood the tu 1 purpose, and lasting bene-fit that it would bring to this people. When we reached the valleys ol the Rocky Mountains it was Mexican Terri-tory, we planted the stars and stripes ere and now by the providence of God e live in Utah, and tins is the result. Jetu-ileai- by contemplating these his-- 011c.il events that every cloud may have a silver limng.aiK perhaps a golden one. We are growing like bees we begin to swarm; like a nursery of thnftv liees we need transplanting. We are like the mustard plant lull ulseed.eveiv time we get a k ck we scatter far and wide and grow again. We aie all in the Hands of the Lord and he is dealing with us. Not an angel, but I. the Lord, will go before my people" So we have 110 battles to lijlit, but to wage determined war w.ili tie evil within us, aud to sanctify ourselves unto the Lord. Bishops, what I want you to do is to sanctify your people. Admonish them to put away hardness of heart, to come imo a holy uuion of cpitit.thal in partak-ing ol the sacriment they may not eat Hi d drink damnation to their souls. Sanctitiy the people until thete is 110 family among you who ca:i't go into the temple and icceive the blessings God is si anxious to bestow upon the worthy. Divide your time so that this work may be accompllshed.aiid let vour woiks ai d prayers continue until th'; heavens aie moved in their.behalf. Lots of bishops do not consider it necessary to visit the Mutual Improvement Associations, Pri nuries ami Relief Society Meetings. It is your duty to instruct them, encourage them, and by your presence occasionally show them you are interested in their ex ,! nice. Do not lail in appreciation ol the cltorts being made by those who l.i'i.-- under you in t lie Kingdom of God. All the officers should cjudtict them selves as ministe:s of sahaiion.aud shot Id stiive for the strength to put unrighteous desiies under their feet, and conquer the weakness and w.ckedness wh.ch skeins inherent in all Hesh, making the woik ol the Lork first, and using all that he 'las given us, of mental power or earthly relies to redeem Zijn. Let us take tht bp things more to heart; let the A atonic I'riestliocd be wakened up, And let it be the duly of those placed ovsr them !q le .ch and instruct these boys in there duties and privileges. They are good hoys, desiring to do all that is ol them, but they need educating The teachers should be always with the people, "not coming in fur a moment, asking a lew set questions and hurrying oil' in order to go all over their beat iu .one evening, that they maybe able to make a npoit, liut they should cime like messengeis from God, comforting those who nijurn.encouraging the weak, conimeiid'iig the faithful, and by no means passing by the door of one you fear is Hearing the verge of Apostacy It is the duty of the Bishops to assist the Pieiident to keep the quorums full, and that they be composed of men who have time to attend to these important duiies, who can stay long enough in the house of a brother to say: "What run... I ..lit, t lfoiW'-ft4"'v-'t--Th- e KcTiel Societies have di.i:e a noble woric. These good old. sisters, are generally regaided as not much ac-count. Now tell me, have they not re-ceived a mission, have they not been set apart to preach to aud preside over the sisters? Have they not blessed, ai d been blessed iu the. r labors? In givii.g the hungiy to eat, comforting tiie sick, and speaking words of comlort to the down cast, they have done a prec-ious work, and the angles ol Heaven are proud to look down on what thev have accomplished. 1 say to the breth-er-do not hold them or their labors to cheap; but like teachers, 111 other depart-ments of a graded school. You could almost as well be without Apostles and Seventies as these other organizations; we are one and all a part of an entirety, and each'depetident on the other in some measure. May a sense of our unworthvness be upon us, and also a full understanding of His mercy and goodness, is my piayer iu the name of esus. Amen. CutitmeA from first fJge) mtnt Bar of Cod, for he had brn to them a full an J plain testi-mony..'. Thus Ihe gospel came to them in the way 0 duty.of business and they, in. order to do honor to the office which they occupied, 'must have the fullest knowledge of all that pertained to f the Mormon puestion, and were, therefore.tntewiied in digging it out for themselves) and this brought out the most serious questions, and deep est points. So (his class who were to intellectual, and also too busy to have time the doctrines of " .Oirist, when they got through- with 'our polygamy cases had heard about til the ilocirincs and principles ex-plained, and that from the tips of our own church members. ' There was- also a conservative class that did not belong in any way to the law-mak-ing body, that was ; reached through- the abundance of printed matter brought into exist-- 1 ance by these same case, and simi-- ; lar cases, and issued from thegov-- ' ernmcnt printing offices at the ex- -' pense "f the government. Our ; state constitution was printed and : every member of the three branches 'of the 'government had a copy placed on their desk. The I petition that Utah be allowed to become a slate, was treated in a like manner. The matter was refcr-- ; ed to the committee on Territories, who gave notice to our Delegate that they would sit to ihear arguments and reasons why Utah be admitted : to statehood. Then came the doc-- i uments protesting against this ineas-- r tire, followed by McBri.lc, Haskin, Gov. West and Dubois of Idaho, who engaged the must learned law-yers in the country and appeared before this committee. Every phase i of the question was t here'fought over . inch by inch; from our loyahty ar.d i religion, to our numbers and wealth, j AU this was published in phamphlet form every question asked, every objection made, and the answers and replies. Our entire system of plural marriage was again gone over the revelation read and explnned, .the eternal natttrs of our inarriges, all our published article of faith 'extracts of sermons and revelations; . and was then reported back to the house. ! This statehood question occupied two or three days, and Hie committee asked questions about everything . they, could think of, or that would ihelp to make our condition clear. w J. . One of the Judges, ..who evidently thought Mr. Richards had entirely ' tofaTorable 'an .opinion of the Mor-3B- t $"X r; v;- - 1. ' iiiealn t'tan. """"To wliicii 'he replied . "About forty-on- e years: and I know what I am talking about for my fath er is a polygam.'st. " - Thus our faith, our principles, doc trfnes, prophecies and practices public document.Sj ; and wert . printed and distributed as such to every member of the House, Senate, and Supreme Court. More than this, every one of those gentlemen had a number of copies, to distribute to his constituents, many of these reached the politicians and public libraries. In fact these matters were sent through the land broad-cast, fairly and honorably represent- - rng the matters under discussion. . f ' ! Let me ask you my brethren and V- sisters, what machinery could wehave employed, that would have accom-plished what this crusade has done. Thus these imprisioned men and i heartbroken women have been instru ments in the hands of providence to preach the gospel where no other process could reach. Mi-J- -- "k!

If you have ever .been sorry that you were elected to .bear this cross, and be one of those .appointed to this honorable work.be glad now, for this work could not ;be accomplished in any other way. Thus we are brought face to fatfe with "one of the providences of God. We are made aware that He fwill not judge this nation until they have had ample opportunity of hear ing the truth,and it has been brought to their knowledge. 7hese times seem to have' been manufactured especially for us. We sh6uld be more humble and united, manifest-ing more charity and love for each other; and consider that the ways of the Lord are not our ways, and His :wisdom past finding out. There is also one other thing this cru-sade has done. .There have been men .in ottr midst who had a name and stand ing in the chinch, men who were unprin-cipled, who have betrayed their breth ,reu fit die paltry dollars;thcse men han k ' am qg 4istea.iiog and drinking at the table i f ihe, .old with these traitorous feelinars in thtir he trts;when this trouble ftn ;it g ve them an opportunity to show ,what ihtV; weie , ., Lei u pray to God for that wisdom (hat is helier than strength, or weapons ,ol war. that we miv, be instruments in hish nil for working t ut h's purposes (with rex a d t the children t f men, that jieither dje tires of temptation, nr the cold cK uds 01 doubt, may find us desert-ed by Hit Holy Spirit, aud overcome JU- - .. - ,.
