And yet, strange to say, the Christian world quietly views the butch-try butch-try of the followers of the ''Meek and Lowly" in Armenia by the unspeakable Turk ; while at the very threshold of this republic a long-pemecuted people are being put to death in the most brutal manner by representatives representa-tives of a Christian monarchy for daring to assert their independence; inde-pendence; and yet we do not interfere in-terfere for fear of disturbing the "amicable relations" existing, and because, forsooth, it would aftVct "trade." Furthermore, this glorious country today has within its boundaries thousands of idle men, who are willing to work and who are yet unable to provide even a frugal meal on this "days of days" for those they love. There's but little "peace on earth," we opine, for a man whose family is pinched by want, and less "good will to men" whom he deems responsible responsi-ble in a large degree for such conditions. The daily press gives us reports re-ports of the raising of funds in the cities to provide a Christmas dinner for the "poor, whom ye have with you alwsys." Can it be presumed that there is any "peace" of mind, at leastfqr a man whose little ones eat the bread of charity? For -every dollar given in charity each recurring re-curring Christmas, there are thousands spent frivolously at the same time by those who have acquired the means to lavishly spend through agencies that have forced honest, hard-working families to accept charity, steal or starve. After all, is not "Peace on earth, good will to men," as generally uttered today, to-day, more a sentimentality than a benison ? A correspondent has addressed a letter to this paper calling attention at-tention to the habit prevailing in our city of many of the pre siding officers of ecclesiastical organizations making a practice of attending to business, evi dently of a private nature, in meeting after sessions have be gun. It is certainly a deplorable fact that much more of this prac tice is indulged in than seems to us would be conducive to that reverence and attention in meetings' meet-ings' which should mark our religious re-ligious 'gatherings. . The contrary con-trary vffect may be noted at almost al-most any of the denominational meetings where such conduct as whispering in the pulpit is not practiced such matters being attended to in the vestry or other places. The county surteyor has completed com-pleted a survey of the road between Springville and Lake Shore, and found a clear saving of five miles out of teu in the distance to be covered by its establishment. The route will be directly west from Boyer & Bringhurst's store, with one slight deviation; of forty rods. A map is being prepared and work will be begun as early in the taring as possible The Deseret News ha9 apparently appa-rently been ralied down on its high-handed proceedings in the Thutcher controversy. It is well that such is the case. Mr. Thatcher has paid the penalty of his downfall by his own deposition depo-sition whether justly or not may be judged by those interested inter-ested in the affair. His political aspirations are entirely separate and distinct from his religious. His rise or fall in either capacity hns no bearing on the other. While the News may be lawfully qualified to take issue with him religiously, its rights end at the political fence of his domain. pniLjmHKorY vs. Jtsri ft. Pretty sermon can be preached against capital punishment, but human hu-man beings quite often reach that degraded de-graded station in this fallen world where It is best to kill them off. If it be true, a reported of Tat Coughlin, that after his murder of two officers, he should a few days before execution afek for a little "Stagjf and Dawes on toast," the sooner society gets rid of that kind of being the better for it. There ought to be no false sentimentality sentiment-ality engendered In the public mind on this question. Provo Enquirer. This same maudlin sentiment is being worked for all it is worth in the Hayes affair. It was at tempted in the Thiede case, and even that hypocritical fiend, Durrant, has a coterie of these monomaniacs who think they are doing humanity a favor by impeding justice, but instead they are among the worst class of indirect law-defiers that can be found. How inconsistent to imagine that a "victim of injustice" should, in the first place, be "bus pected," then the circumstantial evidence made so positively di reel that a judge and jury should convict, the case appealed and brought before thehighercourts, all of whom sustain the lower judgment, and finally the "vie tim of injustice" and "spite work" aud other alleged proofs of innocence, and innuendos of prostituted justice finally pays the penalty. Don't you know that your efforts to defeat justice are the most encouraging agencies agen-cies at work to make criminals? The very delay you make gives amateur murderers the very incentive in-centive some of them want viz., notoriety ? This is all that inspired Pat Coughlin. He is said to have been aa inveterate novel reader. Miners of Park City who vrorked with him say Patsy was only bad because he courted the notoriety, and that his greatest sin was lying. He could tell a blood curdling lie without winking, and enjoyed that sort of thing more than his dinner. He rejoiced in the notoriety no-toriety that this murder gave him. He thought the remark he so flippantly made regarding his victim, "He jumped like a rabbit," was simply grand, and, likeother fiends, believed enough maudlin sentiment could be worked up to eventually give him freedom. i It seems to us that if Charles Thiede, Pat Coughlin, Enoch Davis and Fred Welcome were innocent, and that Harry Hayes is the "victim of spitework," that the man Holmes of Philadelphia Phila-delphia and Hermans of Salt Lake are angels of mercy beside such men as our sheriffs, judges and juries. If these men are pursuing innocent men just for: the pastime of conviction and j capital punishment, then the country is indeed in a bad condition. con-dition. Thequickerourwould- he philanthropists shall realise that they only do harm by their interference the better it will be foe the country. TALKING TI.HB is OYcK. To those residents of this city and its environments who own everything they possess to that lucky turn in life's wheel which, and in nearly every instance involuntarily, in-voluntarily, caused them to settle set-tle here, will get together and on the principal of "one for nil und all for one", take hold of the projected sugar mill enterprise. Springville ought to possess its own sugar factory in time to handle next year's beet crop. On the premises there is no need of exhaustive argument pro and con the preposition, its feasibility or its practicability. The latter essentials are concluded. conclu-ded. The immediate need is organ-ization organ-ization and cupatalizution of such organization. When more of our citizens of means come forward and jot down, as they should, on paper a substantial slock subscription the sugar mills movement may be said to go. Until they do, the discussion, worn absolutely thread bare over the matter, will remain in thatstateof innocuous desuetude it enjoyed so long at (Spanish Fork. The time for action U ripe. Procrastination means the accomplishment of nothing. The loud sounding self praise of the alleged up-buildersof Springville Spring-ville and her resources want to come "to time". Talk is cheap, but it costs money to build a sugar factory. The Cuban question is assuming assum-ing a very lurid appearance aDd it would seem must soon be settled. set-tled. The strained conditions certainly can not last much longer. long-er. The people of this country, almost to a unit, excepting, of course, Col. P. Donan, of the Utahnian, are on the side of Cuba ready, if need be, to fur-nish fur-nish a battalion from each state. The election case is ended and our supreme eourt has did itself proud in stamping its approval on what is, or should be, always recognized, that the people's voice is supreme over all. No one questions the wish of a large majority of the people in its choice of candidates, and if there are any defects in the election law, they should be remedied, and we hop they A'ill be by the incoming legislature. 1896 Vale.
