Lund Matter at th Port Office at Salt EDITORIAL Some TJuth That Should Make You Glad A Study In Few greater men than George Q. Cannon have walked on the stage of life in Utah. He was a fount of wisdom and learn- -' ing and a tower of strength throughout the pioneer years. Among thp words that fell from his lips none are more significant than these, spoken in the Tabernacle July 24, 1881. Simplifying one. Everything connected with this people has foe its design the renovation of the earth from the evils which exist at the present day. I am thankful there is a prospect for myself and my children in this respect, for when 1 look it society as it exists, 1 confess if 1 had no hope only in that to be found in such society, I would have no desire for life, and 1 certainly would not care about having a family.1 By the term Babylon Pres. Cannon meant Capitalism, and by the term SYSTEM he meant the Capitalistic system. By theexpression, A NEW ORDER OF SOCIETY he infant the United Order What he says about his hope for the Ne.v Order we have expressed in our way many, many times.

There are some people, who for six years have eaten their every meal out of the administration's hand, and who now go about talking against the government in a tone that is far worse than the talk of any communist from Russia has ever been. There is no sin quite as cold as ingratitude. The leadership we have is the only leadership that has been developed in the depression debacle. THE GREATEST DANGER. The greatest danger that the depression has brought to America is the erosion of character that has taken place. And a worse weapon than poison gas is the flood of poisoned ideas which have taken hold of some people. But worse and sadder than these is the bod v blows that have been dealt religion and spirituality. For these things there must be a reckoning. We shall pay and pay and pay. THE BABSON REMEDY. Roger W BABSON offers as a remedy to over come depressions, poverty and many other ills, the following. Let the reader ponder them and do some thinking. "Religion spiritual revival.
