productien. Benefits, therefore, to
the purchaser or consumer--of such
article, can not result. Then the
benefit must be outside Of the pro-
-duction, abstractly considered. If so
where is it? Is the demand for any
production increased because its
price or cost of production is ad-
vanced? ? If not creating a greater
demand why will more laborers be
needed ? If no more laborers are
demanded can not skilled labor for
producing the article, be obtained
at much lower rates, and yet the
price Of the protected article remain
high2 In such event who is bene-
fitted? The one, ofcourse, who has
the. credit of being the producers,

the article, blinded though he may

ionist, the reverse is ture. Cheap
cloths are thrown aside before dear
ones; wood is substituted for dear
Iron; Less labor does when high

THE MORMON DZFFyCyL yIES

That there are quarrels in the Mormon

oue sne pn s,v3usosg consequences of these dis
sebslcns are vastly overrated by the general
Bubble. We observe in the ne wspapers
iisposstii \ to conclude that the new schism
aused By Harrison and Godbe. Of the I-t,h
Magazine, must speedily break down the
rule of Brigham. 1t is possible that It
may, but very far from certain. This ia the
fourth or fifth schism in the Mormon organ

"Josephite' movement, which, though some
what extensive, is not a dangerous enemy of
the Mormon Church, having resulted in

INVESTMENTS ON MORTGAGE

INVESTMENTS ON MORTGAGE
1t is suggested to us, by gentleman who
had been reading the opinions on our local
finances, published on Saturday, that the
remedies proposed for striugency in the
money market are all remote and impossible
to be put into present use. But though in
vestments in real estate, on bond and mort
gage, seem now to be so little sought, it is
true that they, like all other things in trade
anu finance, have found their Natural level.
aud old mortgages ere now currently sold at
ninety per cent of their face At this rate.
there is no difficulty in procuring them, and
it will be found, upon going into the calcu
lation, that if bought at that rate, and mid.
say, in five years, they will pay the investor.
over eight per cent per annum. 1t is an
important question whether, at such figures
they are not much safer and better invest
ments than to purchase securities in distant
corporations, the management of which NAV
become corrupt or incompetent.
We urge these considerations on our citi-
zens, and on moneyed men, especially, be-
cause III they are correct, a greater degree
OF attention can be given TO home invest
nents, and the development of our own real
estate, which would have suffered great in
Jury, during the past few years, had it not
been for the opportune relief given by the
Loan Associations. In our opinion, the
hest measure of permanent relief is to make
the legal rate of interest seven ner cent Ia,
