Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Utah Review, Vol. 1: December, 1881 We are cited to the British civil service as a triumphant answer to these objections, but it remains to be Shown that Great Britain's admin istrative methods or administration are better than ours, while in politics she has not yet arrived at the point we started from a century ago. Why then should we be asked to take either her administrative or political methods, which are intimately connected in a Democracy, as models? There, candidates for the civil service are subjected to a competitive examination, which lasts a few hours, which may examine for everything but real fitness, and which may be crammed for. Here the test is infin itely more searching. A candidate must have so lived as to have a well established and general reputation for fitness or he cannot command the in uence that secures appointment, he cannot pass the scrutiny of the confirming Senate, he cannot execute his official bond in amount and with sureties corresponding to the importance of the office. Broadly it may be said that the issue is between government by universal suffrage and 'by competitive examination. It is not Great Britain but China that has thoroughly tried the latter. Thousands of years ago China aban doued the experiment of governing by universal suffrage and adopted the other method. The result is a governing class, the members of which know the sacred books by heart, and a people without souls. Judged by this example the system will hardly commend itself to our people. If it is the only panacea fora pure and efficient civil service, it is at least curious that business men have not discovered and do not employ it, or that the people assembled in nominating convention do not require a certificate of his qualifications from an examining board be fore selecting a candidate for elective office. The truth is the man who should need it would be thrown out for that reason, and ought to be. His qualifications should be notorious for any office or any service and as a matter of fact they are.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Utah Review, Vol. 1 The Utah Review, in this its initial number, comes with words of greeting. It makes its advent into the world of letters as a friendly competitor for a place among the literary magazines of the day. Its editor is conscious of the greatness of the undertaking he enters upon. He is aware that it will require years of hard labor to build up a magazine of influence and merit and make the Review what he designs it to be, for every thing of permanent value is of slow growth. We think there is a large, unoccupied field in this great "New West" in which we trust the Review will find a wide place and a cordial reception. The spirit of the Review will harmonize with the spirit which pervades every cultured Christian home. We shall welcome truth from whatever source. The Review will seek to advance the cause of a broad orthodoxy, the highest culture and a genuine liberality. It will be devoted to Religion, Education, Philosophy, Science, Literature, Politics, Art and in a word to Christian Civilization. Success in such an enterprise is always conditioned upon the excellence of the work performed. The Utah Review asks for a thorough examination, a careful reading and a candid criticism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Utah Review, Vol. 1: September, 1881 The House of Lords is in many respects an anomalous legislative body. Though consisting of nearly 600 members, it may proceed to business where three peers are present. This modest quorum is made necessary by the fact that all bills of importance must originate in the Commons and cannot be amended without danger of damaging conflict with the Lower House. Most Lords take little interest in exercising the limited powers now left them. Nominally the Lords still have the pow er to amend or reject any bill; actually they content themselves with slight and unimportant suggestions, except where, as in the case of the Land Bill, their interests are deeply concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Utah Review, Vol. 1: March, 1882 Whoever has thoughtfully considered the relations that the Christian church sustains to _the peculiar civilization of this New West, and its antagonism to the religious despotism. Of this Territory, must recognize the fact that, whatever permanent success it may have attained, and whatever in uence it may have exerted upon the Mormon community, have been mainly through the school work of the church. Utah owes her better civilization, her culture in American Principles, and her broader thought, to the Christian schools, established along with the planting of the churches. The Methodist Church opened its first mission school in Salt Lake City, September 12, 1870, with an enrollment of twenty-eight pupils. It gained rapidly in favor and in uence in the city, and for a time its permanent success seemed assured. By reason of untoward circum stances it lost its prestige and reached a very low ebb. During the past year, however, a renewed effort has been made to establish it on a perma nent basis, and make it the central school of the church for the Territory. A new and vigorous policy. Is now being pursued to accomplish this end. The success of the school thus far during the present year, through the untiring energy of the Principal, Rev. T. B. Hilton, A. M., and the. Faithful work performed by his associate teachers, is very gratifying. There has been a continued increase in the number of pupils in attend ance, a higher degree of efficiency attained, and a growing Confidence in the community in its ultimate success. It is the purpose of the church to develop this school into a Uni versity. As tributary to this, Seminaries have been established at Ogden, Tooele, Beaver and Provo, where new and permanent improvements in school buildings have been made during the present year.

Book excerpt: In 1820, a young farm boy in search of truth has a vision of God the Father and Jesus Christ. Three years later, an angel guides him to an ancient record buried in a hill near his home. With God’s help, he translates the record and organizes the Savior’s church in the latter days. Soon others join him, accepting the invitation to become Saints through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. But opposition and violence follow those who defy old traditions to embrace restored truths. The women and men who join the church must choose whether or not they will stay true to their covenants, establish Zion, and proclaim the gospel to a troubled world. The Standard of Truth is the first book in Saints, a new, four-volume narrative history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Fast-paced, meticulously researched, Saints recounts true stories of Latter-day Saints across the globe and answers the Lord’s call to write history “for the good of the church, and for the rising generations” (Doctrine and Covenants 69:8).

Download or read book A Reference Guide for English Studies written by Michael J. Marcuse and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 872 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ambitious undertaking is designed to acquaint students, teachers, and researchers with reference sources in any branch of English studies, which Marcuse defines as "all those subjects and lines of critical and scholarly inquiry presently pursued by members of university departments of English language and literature.'' Within each of 24 major sections, Marcuse lists and annotates bibliographies, guides, reviews of research, encyclopedias, dictionaries, journals, and reference histories. The annotations and various indexes are models of clarity and usefulness, and cross references are liberally supplied where appropriate. Although cost-conscious librarians will probably consider the several other excellent literary bibliographies in print, such as James L. Harner's Literary Research Guide (Modern Language Assn. of America, 1989), larger academic libraries will want Marcuse's volume.-- Jack Bales, Mary Washington Coll.

Book excerpt: From Colleen Hoover, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us and It Ends with Us, comes a moving and haunting novel of family, love, and the power of the truth. Not every mistake deserves a consequence. Sometimes the only thing it deserves is forgiveness. The Voss family is anything but normal. They live in a repurposed church, newly baptized Dollar Voss. The once cancer-stricken mother lives in the basement, the father is married to the mother’s former nurse, the little half-brother isn’t allowed to do or eat anything fun, and the eldest siblings are irritatingly perfect. Then, there’s Merit. Merit Voss collects trophies she hasn’t earned and secrets her family forces her to keep. While browsing the local antiques shop for her next trophy, she finds Sagan. His wit and unapologetic idealism disarm and spark renewed life into her—until she discovers that he’s completely unavailable. Merit retreats deeper into herself, watching her family from the sidelines, when she learns a secret that no trophy in the world can fix. Fed up with the lies, Merit decides to shatter the happy family illusion that she’s never been a part of before leaving them behind for good. When her escape plan fails, Merit is forced to deal with the staggering consequences of telling the truth and losing the one boy she loves. Poignant and powerful, Without Merit explores the layers of lies that tie a family together and the power of love and truth.
