The editor in whose paper the foregoing appeared Is
charged by his rival with being himself the .young
American Who 'f his travelling expenses paid, is
willing his mathematical and chemical studies to

sqnabble between Mr. Uilmann of the Academy Of Music
and the editor and reporter Of Portcrs Spirit Of the

reporter deny Mr. Uifmanns right to exclude them and

forcing their way in They forcbly elected and
arrested warrant charging them with creating dis
turbance The attempt il to be renewed, | hear to-

express considerable dissatisfaction with Brigham Young
proceedings and hint at the possibility of another prom
