any man is a Citizens Black white or red and if
the Jews come here with a part of the Canaanite
blood in them they are Citizens & shall have their
rights but not to rule for me or my Brethren
those persons from the Islands & foreign countries
know nothing about governing the people. The Canaan
ite cannot have wisdom to do things as the white man
has. We must guard against all Evil I am not going
to let this people damn themselves as long as I can
help it

Sunday Feb 8 President Young addressed the assembly
and said I trust in the Lord for light as I have
heretofore done when the minds of men are open
to understand they will see things as they are. we are
subject to all the evils which are in the world. I have
thought this world as fallen as any of the creations
of God. when the Lord created the Earth or any world
if they have an Exaltation they will have to experine
all that we Experiane I see no reason why they
should not be tempted as we are tempted. If we
are candidates to exhaltation & glory & that we cann
ot get that Exaltations & glory in no other way then
we should be reconciled to it & be satisfyed to let the Lord
do with us as He pleases is their any Evil upon any pe
person or affliction upon any Nation or kingdom
that God does not permit their is not we should
then be faithful to God in all things to be his
secret counsellor if necessary why should we com-
plain or find fault with God about any thing we
should not. Se the Example of the Nations of the
Earth they complain about evry thing and against all
his providences their is no proceding of ours or act or ex
periance but what He knows all about. If it would
be any satisfaction to you I would say that God has
passed through all the trials & experience that we have
Jesus Christ has passed through all the trials & experine
the same as we have it would not be prudent for
me to say that the Father has not the same experiene
that his Son had. He had quite as much as his Son
had, let the Saints look about themselves & se if
they hadve as great things as they expected when
they first received the gospel & the Holy Ghost opened
their minds they saw that Zion was to [be] built up &
Israel gatherd the power of God & the Holy Ghost to be
poured out upon us. If we could get a place by ourseles
how faithful we would live & thank God. Do you have
the same things you looked for well I dont know you say this
shows that somebody has let down their watch & inf-
luenced others & they have not lived up to their privileges
when we first received the gospel we were humble
but since the tempteor has come & we are tempted with
many things but this is right the Lord permits it
we could not get glory without it let me ask if any
