Elder Lorenzi Snow, who now has bejen called to preside over the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is so well known among the people of God as to need no introduction to them. He has been identified with the church since lS3S-ever faithful, ever actl.e, constantly laboring for the benetlt of his fellow men at home unJ abroad. He has been one with the saints in their trials and triumphs; tri-umphs; he has performed his part of the labor necessary for the temporal and spiritual advancement of the people, and borne with the faith and fortitude of a martyr his share of the persecutions they have suffered; His entire life has been a school -God's school fining nun for the exalted position he now occupies among his brethren. lie will be heartily sustained sus-tained by the saints throughout the world.

Dr. MileV Nervine Restores Health. UNCLE KZEKIEL OBEAR, Assessor and tax collector, Beverly, Mass., who has passed the 80th life mile stone, says: "Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine has done a great deal of good. I suffered foryears from sleeplessness sod nervous heart trouble. Would feel weary and used up In tbe morning, morn-ing, had no ambition and my work seemed a burden. A friend recommended Dr. Miles' Nervine, and I purchased a bottle under protest as I had tried so ma ny remedies unsuccessfully, un-successfully, I thought it no use. But It gave me restful sleep, a good appetite and restored me to energetic health. It is a grand good medicine, and I will gladly write anyone inquiring, lull particuinrsoi my sat- kfactory experience.'' r jW? Hue Dr. Miles' Remedies I ij?

Like his predecessors, he has received a knowledge of the truth of tie gospel, not only through the testimony of man but through revelation. President Snow arrived in this valley in the autumn of the pioneer year, 1817, in charge of a train of one hundred wagons. A few years later be was engaged in building up Box-elder Box-elder county and laying the foundations founda-tions for great co-operative enter-prizes. enter-prizes. His long experience iu the service of the church, his intimate acquaintance with the founders thereof and above all his integrity and apostolic zeal qualify hi in for the position he has been called to occupy as the fifth president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Deseret News. MISTREATING THE SOLDIERS. The Utah Democrats in their state platform also give credence to the slanders on the army in regard to soldiers sol-diers being starved to death, after congress had voted millions for the care of the defenders of the country. Sensational newspapers have been trying to agitate the country for some time over the condition of the volunteers, volun-teers, but with poor success, and now trie Democrats adopt the same sensational sensa-tional fabrications for party gains this fall. It will profit them nothing, for the stories are not founded 011 facts, as tbeothVial investigation will prove. There has beeu incompetency no doubt, and the Cuban campaign was too hurriedly rushed 10 the island without full preparations being made for the hardships that had to be endured. en-dured. At Santiago, General Shufter hud the impression that re-enforcements were coming to aid the Spaniard Span-iard :, whiledisease wasstriking terror to his soldiers, so he perhaus rushed the campaign against the city more than he was warranted In , doing. Vol-'unleef Vol-'unleef officers" did not know now to make the proper requisitions, and through their ignorance the men were in some cases made to suffer. For instance, one of the Virginia volunteers volun-teers made complaint to the war department de-partment 1 hat his regiment never got f refill meat, while one of the northern regiments had it every day. Secretary Alger' began au investigation, and found that there was meat iu abundance abund-ance supplied by the commissary department, de-partment, but the officers of the Virgenia regiment did not Know bow to make requisition for it. But with all the incompetency which mu.it of necessity be displayed by a nation at peace rushing suddenly into war. the deaths, reported have been surprisingly small, and do not warrant the shameful attacks which have been made in the press of the country ou the conduct of the war. It will be noticed that in all the sensational reports there have appeared very few if any figures. Pen pictures have been made In several insiances of the awful condition con-dition of the camps, portraying them in the light of veritible pest holes, but the death lists have never been given. This has been a surprise to considerate peoole. Now let us look at the statistics, as they were reported report-ed at the end of last week, by the Washington Post. The deaths at the various camps were as follows: Wickoff lto Blaeli 4 Banliapo 35U Jacksonville 7U Other cuuips 14U Tot ul 751 Thus we have a further compilation: compila-tion: Deulhs In battle 332 Deaths In diiip T.'jI Total 1.CS3 Waking altogether a result of less than five and a half to the thousand, in a volunteer army of two hundred thousand. In addition to this, there were abo'.t 1,000 wounded at Santiago, and a few others here and there in various skirmishes elsewhere. Suppose, for purposes of a working estimate, we fix the.numberof these at 500, making 1,500 wounded in all, and suppose agalu that we say half of these, or 750 of the Injured men, die of their bum. We shall then have a grand aggregate of killed: In battle, outright 332 Subsequently of wound T,V) Iu cuiups and hospitals 751 Total .1,633 Or in round numbers, 2.000 deaths out of the 200,000 men enlisted during May and June and duly mustered la. 4 12 to 24 y - From September, the 12th to September the 24th, a bargain sale in RANGE, COOK and HEATING- stoves.

About twenty-six ortwenty-s;ven ortwenty-s;ven per thousand annually is the average death rate In American cities. The death rate in our army, calculated on the basis of the figures above given, would amount to forty per thousand per annum.
