vir lir Pc penrose nrose and ind supported by carrington and mckinnon to increase the remitting power of the county courts to a sum not exceeding ten dollars U under ader the old oid law which ruled fo r many years year she the county courts had unlimited discretion is in remitting taxes but by the provisions of the revenue law passed at the session 1 1878 1818 those courts were empowered to remit or abac the taxes of lins any insane or idiotic person infirm or indigent person to an amount not exceeding live dollars for the current year TI this lis ils was goin going g from one extreme very vely nearly to another the proposition to increase the remitting power to ten dollars is is very moderate but at first sight appears unnecessary it was ver very y reasonably argued by the opponents of the motion that any person owning property the taxes on amount to more than five dollars ought to tobe be able to pay the amount required bu tas t as was shown yesterday there are many persons poor widows for instance who possess real estate valued at a considerable sum which by renting brings them in a pittance sufficient to barely support them and keep krep them from entirely depending on others for sub stence Ss si tence yetchen yet when tile the time cOlnes comes for the payment of territorial county school and city taxes on their little property they thoy are bablo to raise the eash cash necessary to settle with the collector to sell thein their property for taxes would only deprive them of their means of support and throw them upon public charl chanty ty it was vas argued that tho the county courts Court might safely bo be endowed with discretionary power to demilt in such and similar ar cases eom tom taxes tomes es to the amount of ten dollars without reasonable fear that they would misuse such authority etwas it was also argued edwi with th some show of plausibility that by the amendments under consideration the household goods and chattels chattel of poor people to the value of a hundred foi clo dollars were exempted from taxation which is a astep step towards the relief of the indigent so far d as taxes are concerned this is very true but the same exemption applies applied alike ailko to rich and aud poor therefore it does not meet the cases in question I 1 tho the motion prevailed and the change was made the bill which is a good one passed the house and we hope will oil also pass the council and be signed by the governor with the change g above named intact as it is for the benefit of the desera deserving ing poc poor r will injure no one and does doe s not require any amount of tax wh whatever at to be remitted but merely places a little larger discretion in the power awer of the county courts than the revenue law of last session permitted them to exercise discoveries AT JERUSALEM FOLLOWING FOLI eoll OWING is an extract froma from a letter writt whitten written by dr chaplin to th the c committee of the tho Pales palestine thib thih exploration reap fahd ielli which will be interesting in 6 to many of our readers some soma time ago the tombs of the kings rings were purchased bya by a french lady and excavations of considerable inte inta interest iest lest have havo lately been beeh carried on there in the earth carth which filled a great portion of the rock hewn sunken court in front of tile tiie entrance to the tombs have been found many capitals and other architectural remains amon among them some stones stone which show beyond question that they formed part of a pyramidal structure there seems no reasonable doubt that cheso belong to the famous three pyramids of the monuments of helena and have been thrown throve rn down from above A great marble statue probably boman roman has been found a few minutes from the seashore an hour and c a half south of gaza gaya it is a half figure nose and right forearm broken off in the lab iab an hour or more north of the tiie jaffa road a tomb has lias been brought to light one of its stone doors lias has carving upon it in four panels on two of which are aro representations of lions heads in two of bulls heads probably the tile tomb is of crusading or origin it has again been covered in I 1 I 1 had 1 d hoped to bo be able to visit it as well as the statue below gaza lut but but could not leave hoine it assaid is said sald that the tile statue is not to be e brought to jaffal intemperance thae THAT intemperance is one of the most glaring alarin 9 social evils of christendom is beyond dl dispute not lot only in and of itself but for the great vavie tavie ty of consequences which follow it these are not confined to the offender nor is its worst feature the simple use of intoxicating drinks men who become slaves to drink become I 1 indifferent to eve every ry othi other othen r social virtue indulgence runs riot in I sensuality gambling and dishonesty and causes a general perversion of all the faculties home ship social standing religion 0 and manhood are swept from tile the social platform and the altar of self is made to occupy and become the whole sphere of an irrepressible and slavish appetite no more is incense incense or worship offered to the household gods 11 these have been dethroned dethroner to make room for the one god the one altar and the one ore worship p for a mans maws life to be absorbed in a good thin thing is praiseworthy and tills tilis is in a 1 direction which aims alms at the target and ind widest circle cirel e of good labor marks the philanthropist and thought 0 honors tile tiie man if there is a field which needs nevels active unselfish workers it is among the victims of strong drink arink and where such workers are lound found even those who occupy and act from a higher standpoint can well afford to give credit for every effort andyes and yet jet realize that there exists a more thoroughly efficient and a more acceptable cep table way in utah we have a community in which while there may be bome some drinking is yet a general public sentiment opposed op posed to such a habit and practice it is well known that the church of jesus christ of latter day saints professes to be built upon present revelation r ea vel tion but it is not bot no t so well wel I 1 known to outs outsiders liders siders at least that one of the earliest revel revelations atlow given to the Church was in regard to I 1 eating and drinking 11 A revelation which to bome gome may appear to be couch couched ed in measurably vague 0 language as if those to whom the same was directed needed an apology for interference ter ference and yet in that vagueness there is more comprehended than many who read it and some who try to keep it have lyet understood it wasa was a great thin thing Z to establish in the century the idea which was indissolubly connected with the early r history story of mankind that god who he created was not only able but willing to give instructions and commandments mand ments as to that food which would give the best physical condition and the greatest longevity to the human race those who accept in their faith and practice this revelation are beyond the reach of the special organizations which may lay claim to some success in other localities good Temp tempi lars gs nacha Racha bites temperance and teetotal societies and blue ribbon brigades are among the latter day saints alto aito altogether r ether ethen out of place being d and superfluous inasmuch as their aims are all provided forand for fon and their ends all anticipated by the tiie religion nell neil 1 I on of jesus christor christ or what is called the gospel there may be and doubtless is room for professional temperance lecturers here as elsewhere there are in this community many transients many outsiders who are not amenable amenable to the covenants of the gospel there may be those who have been or are yet professed members of the church who need apparently patently ly sa salvation V atlon from their taste tastes propensities propensity sit and nd appetites but so far as is tho the latter class is concerned when they forsake the covenant of their falth faith to seek salvation in the covenants of babylon they are like those who ignoring consecration had hag to submit suba it to the law of tithing or hike fike those of ancient israel who rejected relec relee ted the gospel and had to bo be subject to 11 the law of carnal commandments which made nothing perfect but was useful only as a schoolmaster to bring men to th CliT christ 11 to be sure the salvation attained by this process is better than none but it is not in keeping with the law of liberty it is but an expedient dealing with a sad and terrible evil evil like usino using using lotions and ph pi plasters asters and ointment mert and quackery instead of laying the axe at the root of the wrong and liew llew hewing inci 7 down the deadly tree and then casting it into the fire lire drunkenness has always been re pretended prell ended of god godi it has always been opposed by his lis servants it would bean beau almost unknown thing in utah if the authorities oath of the church and the faithful saints had bad the power in the premises which they desire but the appetites backed by the legal rulings of the champions of drink have made powerless liv lif inthe the large cities of utah the wishes of the liest best as of the majority these have not forgotten that revelation was given to the priesthood of god in ancient times the lord saying to aaron his servant do not drink wine nor strong drink thou nor thy sons with thee when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation aaion teft test ye dici dt cifa t shall shail bea be a statute for ever throughout 0 your generations that ye may put a difference between holy and unholy and between unclean and clean lev 4 8 9 20 and in this despen dispensation the lord said through his prophet 1 I have warned you and fore fofe forewarn warn you inasmuch as any man drinkuth drin keth wine or strong drink among you behold it is not good neither meet in the sight of your father in heaven doc doe doe hoc and cov section 1 page 1 40 and if paul is to be believed no drunkard shall shail inherit the king kingdom doni donl of god 1 cor vi 10 lo men in and out of this church who remain uninfluenced by these considerations wh who for novelty notoriety or supposed salvation act otherwise are arc hardly hardis likely to work out for themselves a gorou thorough 1 i reformation even by the aid of a pledge or the wearing of a ribbon all questions of moral and social ethics are circumscribed by and provided for in tile the gospel the acceptance of or any other method is to bar ter athe the birthright for d a mess of pottage 11 LOST PROPERTY tim THE following which we clip from the christian union is well wort worthy by of attention not only by the tiie young I 1 to w whom bom lom it is addressed but to every finder of lost property we will simply add to it that the latter day saints siai Sial rits are expected when they thes find property which does not belong to them to deposit it in the tithing office of the town or settlement where alere it is found that is tile the custom or local law chica which obtains among amon imon 9 us and due diligence should nii |
