customary with the printers aters of De deseret serit since the commencement of or their festi vals als to select one of their own number to address heir frienda friends on those occa occasions lIons but I 1 hope when ahen we hill hili have another meeting of this kind that hat the tiie association will make a better belter selection han than ban they have done this time however it appears that I 1 have to honor my calling sailing in the best beit way I 1 can aid aid con contribute my iny nite ite lie towards making this fes festival tImal aa as interesting am a pos possible ables and increase the joy and happiness of all those that havu havo assembled here out of respect to 0 conr craft III in behalf of the tiie A scoria lon ion then tilen beloved friends rienda I 1 congratulate you upon our hav leaving ing your agreeable company on this occasion and we herti hertl fy wis hyou a merry time not only at this festival but for evermore you are our friends friend arid aria truly we call can addres vou you you as such for outside these snow capped mountains we find enemies on all hands except a few scattered israel here lere and there whose hearts already are here with us the saints are gathering here from almost ever every y nation and making their homes for fora a season in t these lie lle asides of the north where they tiley are sheltered in by the eternal hills where they enjoy peace and arid happiness arld and where they can call discern the hand of or the almighty stretched out to preserve them while wars famine and destruction of every kind have been itic increasing reasin 7 alonz amon the na nations t lons ions abroad this thia people have llave been blessed exceedingly in all things likings and were even blessed when the lord caused the tiie grasshoppers to teach them a lesson how to take better care of their crops and arid allow the earth as well as themselves to rest in 16 the proper season the typographical association since since lle ile the lie last festin 1 I have been bern busily engaged in their literary pursuits in instructing one another and learning the tile deseret alphabet they have iove also received good instructions at their inee meetings tings from some of tile tiie twelve and arid other ilon lion honorary orar v members of the association for all which they feel grateful but notwithstanding standing all the efforts of the active members of or this society there seemed to be something deficient in its organization which hin bin hindered dered it from being so successful in its operations as was anticipated at the commencement it was thought proper at a recent recant meeting of or the association to appoint a committee of if three to revise the constitution and bylaws by laws of thi this association and after a careful investigation of the same the committee deemed it wisdom to make some important alterations in in both the constitution and bylaws by fly laws and arlid also to call the association by a new name which is the deseret press association the tire above name will entitle the to a greater share of or public patronage the want of which it has haa already felt it will also embrace j lil 11 those associated whether hiti intimately or rem remotely 0 I 1 e I 1 Y with th pless pi rss ess while the former name con confined fined its practical operations to printers alone the said committee have made provisions in the constitution for all the members whether active or tion ilon honorary to have equal privileges in ail nil things and it 1 is design designed d that ihal ail all members shall be act active ive lve bind and the most intelligent intel gent and capable to take the tho lead in fit all the proceed proceedings ines of ilie llie association cia tion Acco according iding to the old constitution too much burden devolved upon the typographers we low now want our superiors in hi the priesthood and in other oilier capabilities to 10 take us by the hand and carry out th tiie tile a great object of f this young association I 1 the tile above alterations have met the unanimous approbation of all our active members and it is the intention of tile the association to lay tile the mitter milter before a general meeting of all tile the members as soon as ail opportunity will offer that the constitution and bylaws by laws may imay again be examined reexamined re and arid finally adopted for the future guid guld guidance stice of thi thiv v association if all persons connected in any way with the tiie press be united together as one man in carry carrying ing inZ forth the tile object objects of this society the time will speedily arrive when great good call can be accomplished bv it and the society itself aill be perhaps the most important one on among this people I 1 anticipate that this tins association under the new title of the tile deseret press association will be the chief organ tn in bringing about the tile grand reformation in our english language which has been PO so long lonn contemplated but not as yet brought brou glit into a successful operation though the type of the tiie new alphabet is about being cast the prin printing tinz business basins of deseret llad had been till some line irne ime fine in ill december ids lant last t carried oil on ilithe in the attic room above the post office where we wet suffered much from summer lie lle heat

the office continues still in charge of elder jas jass mcknight who is energetic in performing the duties devolving upon him there has been quite a number of fonts of type added to the office during this winter and a better quality a of paper for the news which wll wil effect considerable reformation in some branches of the trade j PrIn printing tinz has been and mut always continue to be oil on the increase both here among the saints as well as among the tiie nations of the earth parth there has never uever been a period in which the ilia art has reached such a perfection a it lias has at the present day observe the newspapers of the a aye nye ae are e they travel as upon tile the wings of the wind they are attached to steam from the mailing of the paper to its transmission from tile tiie press to distant p part arts look upon the electric fele iele griph with ilg lightning tiling speed conducting intelligence to the printing establishment see tiie hie copy divided between the numerous compositors and hw flow quickly the steam press throws out its eight sheets at a time ready for steam again to distribute them over land and sea with a speed that is astonish astonishing inz but tire tile world are ahead of BS as here as aset yet we hate hale traveled so far into the mountains that we have left tile the steam engine behind us and arid we e had to comine commence ic anew Not notwithstanding withstand ilg rig I 1 this thia hi is wo w are getti getling egr along pretty rapidly rapid considering our shua situation tion and by aud aid bye be we w may nay be able to

grand chang we shall then soon poon see a daily mountain express published in this ihm city willell of course wili wilt require steam strain to work it and w perhaps before very lor loi g steam to carry st it to 0 o all parts and perhaps too a telegraph to supply the penters 1 a with news copy this ought to induce all the saints to afford every encouragement to the art of printing in these mountains moun and to realize the blessings they receive recene from it t at the present time let them look back at the tile situation of former day saint aud and compare the difference then tilen
