on the part of many religious denominations but more I lrclry the Church of England to revert t Ue tid anti crmolle of Catholclbl The creeds that have lon formulated di not seem t give satisfaction and the glitter of the ritual of the Catholic Church seems to attract many while with the other denominations there is not a corresponding increase The doctrine doc-trine that belief in Jesus is sum dent salvation is I I think I bring brug in about bite general indifference which I have referred to and people peo-ple are willing to leave 1 religion to the ministers oblivious to the statement state-ment of the Apostle that faith without works Is dead In tho old countries religion is dying out I could not help contrasting the con dition titers with the living prac heal faith of the latterday luL who are seeking first the Kingdom of Got and llij righteousness I trust that time who have gathered will not forget that I is our duty to aid in establishing Gels Kingdom I know thai

with a dollar bill to purchase tracts He fctated that throb was the frt monev earned by his 12yearold Ion in Utah who had sent it with a request that 11 used le n buying tracts fur distribution such acts as these will bring fruit to the glory of God I am pleased to see the develop nent of the Saints Inc I have been away and the progress cf the work on the Temple Pf bear Gt testimony testi-mony that we are engaged in the work of G I regard It as an honor to have had the privilege of engaging in the work of spreading < he Gospel as I have been the loot two ail a half years May the Lord bins

trill of heaven The Saints are accustomed to met on the Sabbath day to receive such spiritual 1 food as will strengthen them in the princfplcsof the Gospel Tliotc who walk in the straight and Barrow path are called upon to struggle and make sacrifices urn the Gospel thereby showing that they love tlio troth 1 Utulivno It setn in lost ages they who seek t benefit bene-fit the human family are not

b till there shall come on earth peace and to mal good will Jesus in His lay said that lime had not come lie said Ho came then not to bring peace but the sword We sec this truth exemplified in the opposition I of the ySI to the light I of heaven The Saints comprehend tlie words lll hi of thus Master when He said that it must needs be that offenses come but wee unto those by whom r unt thO they come The reformers in every age were called to meet with opposition tlh and It was demanded of them that they recant The sentiments which InEpln their hearts when they r fused to denounce what they believed be-lieved to be true were Godlike and will remain on the principle that the fittest will survive God will provide the Saints with tliu means to stand and witness the turuimcnt of iln words In looking over the worlds history we find that the benefactors of the world have ever been met by the cry of Crucify them People in tills gth are not different in their natures from those of ono or two thousand years ago and IS we con expect r see tin angry waves of persecution rage against the work of G until they would seem to engulf it But God has given an assurance that His work will triumph the human family be regenerated and tao earth be redeemed re-deemed from the curse under which If lino r > tl ftr nrrfts When as Saints we reflect on our position we could not but wonder atthe act of men were it not for thelessons of history We wonder now thai men can be found t op 1 ° so that which wu know to l lie nilh from IIKIVIII When wi nal Ir how the blessing1 we enjoy itt > tfii brought Lt we wonder at the acts of men to antagonIze the cnuso we hnve espoused Whsn we consider that the rW Cn the earth have gathered here and then we contrast their pool ton now with what It 1 Tras formerly for-merly and realize that this ia bu one of the fruits of Morraonlsm we wonder at the course of men In fighting suclr good work When we think of the reclamation of these valleys from the desert and realize that Mormonlsra opened the way t the accomplishment of this task t worider af the antagon ism of men If those who ralee their hands against Ills work could understand limo genius which
