Bishop Nixde, of Kansas, speaking of the deaconess movement said: "There is much talk of woman unsexing her-self and plunging society into convul-sions. , There are silly women nt! siy men, but if we cannot trust our moth- - arid west, will always take care of the agricultural products of this region. It is the home market'' which will be supplied from the products of irriga-tion, and not the eastern or foreign markets." . bIIALL WE HAVE BIOKE LAND FOR H03IES. It is not strange that the late Salt Lake Irrigation congress should have brought under discussion the merits of ; the proposed policy of reclaiming large tracts of arid land by means of govern-ment aid backed up by private capital and enterprise. It was hardly to be expected, however, that numerous east-ern journals would sound the alarm on the ground that such an increase of home area is not needed; and that the capital necessary for such reclamation would require to be drawn mainly from resources that should remain incorpo-rated with eastern wealih; and for the further reason that such an augmenta-tion of agricultural industry will de-teriorate eastern production by exces-sive competition. These several antagonistic considera-tions being given in eastern journals, we are disposed to say that the true and radical ground for objeciing is not yet put into form. It is the reluctance naturally felt by them to giving their consent for the seemingly too rapid transfer of empire, commerce, wealth and political supremacy into the almost boundless regions of the inter-mountai- n domain. The youth and vigor of New England can find only in the west an ample sphere for action and develop-ment. Through each decade the cen-ter of population and political power travels toward the setting sun. Ere another century sets foot upon the threshold of history the center of pop-ulation will have strode westward to a point within close proximity to the rec-ognized boundaries of the arid empire. , But this prediction implies for its ful- - ' Ailment the overcoming of the ohstac-- les that the east will in the na- - - ture of things interpose in the pathway of western progress. There needs to ' be no conflict; and with the intelligence ;V of the east on the one hand, and the push of the west on the other, policy and purpose will fast ripen into achiev- - ment. It is very certain that the population of the country are land hunters to a 9 v . degree so intense aud real that only ihe vvim .r.a.mms. oi ine inomeiiess iiinousannjs into Oklahoma and Dakota can ade-quately exemplify. Talk about our people not needing more land! See them in countless multitudes spreading over the rainless belt east of the Rocky mountains; squatting upon the arid surface, with prayerful, pitiful hands X raised to the brazen heavens implor ing in vain the tearless skies to break in showers of blessings upon their famished crops. See them climbing the mountain side and farming the little vale enriched by some crystal fount of nature. The valleys are occu-pied as far as natural conditions per-mit. Clear west to where the surf roars against the rocky rim of the great ocean has the home-hunte- r gone and occupied the land that is available for farming. And still they come, thousands upon thousands, a mighty army marching on and marching ever; tramp, tramp into the western empire; on, on, with the persistency of fate; a flow as resistless as manifest destiny. What shall be done? Shall we sit down in sloth upon an arid empire and let the fiery summer skies continue to burn the earth into a wide-sprea- d des-ert, while the priceless treasures of the mountains pre melting inio roaring rivers and flowing helplessly, uselessly through the thirsty land? Nay, such supineness is not our wont; and we shall certainly renew the earth and re-deem the desert wastes; and we shall lay hold of and impress into service everp source and means of assistance. As to the fears expressed in the east that the reclamation of the arid west will too greatly in-crease agricultural production, we quote from the forthcoming issue of the Irrigation Ajc, a journal which exhibits marked acumen and breadth in the discussion of questions appertaining to western life and interests: "Now, the reclamation of the arid west, even un-der the most favorable circumstances, is sure to be a gradual process. There is no magic power which can instantly syeak the desert into a garden. It nn:r,t be the work of labor and of time The utmost hope of those who favor the cession of the arid lands is that the work of reclamation May be made to keep pace with the demand for settle- - nteiit. It is not expected that this great region will be suddenly thrown into the market, or suddenly made ready for settlement. There is another misapprehension existing in eastern minds. This is the notion that every new settler on the irrigated lands of the west means a new competitor for the eastern farmer in his home market. Nothing could be more erroneous. God Almighty placed a prohibitory tariff on the agricaltural products of the arid west. lie tilled the mountains with minerals. He filled the great streams with water powers. He or-dained in advance that this should be a land where the consumers should ever outnumber the producers. The multi-plying mining camps, the growing cit-ies and expanding manufactures of the A Baltimore woman claims that Tascott is dead. True, she has just been sent to a mad house, but she is not half as mad as the army of detect-ives will be should her story be verified.

Myron Reed, the very popular and eccentric pastor of the First Congregational church of Denver, in his sermon last Sunday, setting forth the beliefs of his church, and showing that they are all coutained in the one great thought of all religion and all life Love, says further in re-gard to Professor Charles Briggs, w ho is on trial for heresy by the Pres-byterian church: Professor Charles Briggs, of L'nion Theologi-cal Kcminary, is not put on his trhil by ns noth-ing he has written or paid is heresy here. Jesus said that tho law aud the prophets were contained in love to God and love to man and his disciple Haid, "love is the fulfilling of the law.1' Jescs boilfd nil th 1mi- - nml thp nrntthpfrt flown to fif-- teeu words, and St. John down to one word. What difference does it make in my own conduct of life whether Isaiah wrote ail the book commonly ascribed to him or part of it? Somebody wrote it and it is ood for what there is iu it. Whatsoever inspires me is inspired. Whatever gives life must have life in it. The question of who wrote tho hook com-monly ascribed to Isaiah is the same kind of a question as who wrote the book commonly ascribed to Shakespeare. "We have the ore and a smelter and the gold is ours and the silver and lead and the slag. It does not much matter who mined it. "The only real heresies. , for which a man ought at once to be put on trial are cruelty, bigotry,envy, jealousy, robbery of the poor and general .mean-ness. The only essential orthodoxy is the love of God finding expression in service of man. 'lie prayeth best who loveth best.' " SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. The Great Question Before the Voters of New York. New York Mail and Express. The theatrical attitudinizing of the Cleve-land and HiU combination, with their polit-ical jarcon, cannot divert tho attention of the people from the main issue. The deadly democratic domination of this state, inspired to deeper desiuus. of evil by the wholly unscrupulous and irresponsible Tammany f rant in this city, has resulted in shaking the. public confidence in the in-stitutions erected for public security, by turning the very government that is con-stituted to suppress; and prevent crime into uu ever-flowin- fountain of corruption. The very guardians of public peace and safety, under this regime of wholesale- - ollk-ia- l de-pravity, exert-- themselves" hut to multiply the sources and increase, the impunity of criminal life' iu our midst' Shall this carni-val of corruption "continue, to the ruin of our youth and the disgrace of our state.? Let the people answer.. ... Hill for Free Silver Coinage. Philadelphia Press. The democrats .of the south and west are unanimous in their support of the free and unlimited coinage of silver. The only oppo-sition to this demand within the ranks of that party comes from the east. But in New York, the pivotal state, an ambigu-ous plank was adopted, while Governor Hill, the leader of the party in that Ft ite, is prac-tically an open advocate of fric coinage. There can be no two meanings to this plain declaration. Silver must be placed on the same basis as gold. To accomplish that the government must provide for the free and unlimited coinage of silver in the. same way as it now provides for the free and unlimited coinage of gold. That is the demand of the democrats in the 6outh and west, and Gov-ernor Hill says that it is the meaning of the New York platform and the demand of the democrats of New York. Foreign Prophecies on Tin Plate. London Financial Times. Time alone is wanting to build up the tin plate industry iii America, but it isto befeared that the Welsh manufacturers are deceiving themselves if they imagine that a decade must elapse before any impression can be made on their business by rivals across the water. A year or two, however, will cer-tainly intervene before the competition can be really dangerous. Long ere that time it is to be hoped that, the American people will have torn up the McKinlcy law root and branch, or at least have pruned judiciously, and signs are not wanting that this will come about. The Welsh manufacturers have some strong-sidin- g champions in Chicago and elsewhere. It is said that Biugiiam Young, dur-ing his palmy days, had a city ordinance passed suppressing the use of church bells except in case of fire. This or-dinance has been inveighed against as tyrannical. But when it is stated in explanation that there was only about one bell in use, and that was in the vi-cinity of Social hall avenue, and that the ordinance was in the nature cf pro-tection to the community, his zeal against the bell will not seem so unreasonable. Why, that bell is still being thumped by its ponderous iron clapper, and it never begins its deafen-ing wail that one does not recall the dire scenes depicted in Dante. All the dogs in the neighborhood begin to raise their plaintive cries in lugubrious howls and yowls and long drawn growls. The awful bell is a nuisance. Since the city is not likely to pass an ordinance to suppress it, we pray the good Lord to bless its owners and en-able them to get a new, sweet-tone-silvery- note- d bell. hi II. Hop ot Co. have determined to close out their entire stock at cost. This offers the public a rare chance to purchase Chinese and Japanese goods at a bis bargain. Call early and pet first choice of their complete stock. No. 52 Main street. . m The Methodists and Presbyterians are receiving special notice at the hands of the press just now. The former for their mighty show of progress in num-bers, influence, liberalization, wealth and philanthropic achievements. The latter are trying to maintain their doc-trinal system intact. The integrity of the historic faith is seriously threatened. They want the Bible, as it was con-ceived in the mind and heart of John Calvin, to be preserved inviolate. They have been for centuries building up a strong dyke arsund the fountains of salvasion, but it seems that Dr. Briggs has unwittingly picked a hole in the levee, and streams of grace are flowing in unwonted channels. It re-mains to be seen whether they will plug up the leak and extinguish Dr. Briggs, or consider finally that new avenues ought to be cut out, and the thrifty bud he made to bloom and ripen into a more glorious fruitage.

The recent crowding of the Theater, especially during the appearance of DAVENroRT, suggests the most panicky kind of thoughts as to the fate of the mass of men and women, the thousands strung around and snugged into those galleries aud balconies, in case some stampede should be started, by a fire in the staging, or some other exciting cause. The means of exit are utterly inadequate. The stairways leading from the upper galleries are extremely narrow. A great crowd cannot get out in less than a quarter of an hour. Mod-erately speaking, it is a death-trap- , and the proprietors ought to lose no time in making such improvements in the way of ingress and egress as would leave nothing to create terror or alarm when one goes there and finds the house crowded to extreme discomfort. Oi u liberal contemporary is fond of saying that just 300 of the liberal party became sutlieiently disaffected to take a stand as republicans and democrats in the last election. The number is made famous in Grecian history. Thermo-pylae has immortalized the gallant 300, and Utah history will have somethino friendly and commendable to say to those who, in keeping with the senti-ments of brotherhood and fair deal ing, have felt constrained to fore-go tho use of unscrupulous gall and caustic denunciation, and unite with their fellows on a basis of sterling and true Americanism. They are in the path of progress; all things tend in that direction. Even now our contemporary is lagging behind in the shadows, poring over the patterns that fell from the loom of time live, ten, thirty years ago. Wake np, neighbor! Look toward the dawn ! Central America is always in trouble. A story of war or rumors of war conies almost daily from one of tho picayune republics. Presidents are set up to be knocked down next day. "War is declared to avenge a personal insult. No election is conducted without riot and bloodshed. What a blessing it would be if all the independent states there could be combined under one government. If would lessen by four-fifth- s the number of revolutions because there would be but one-fift- h the number of elections. |
