TOO FAST AROUND THE TURNS-DANGER
AHEAD.

To THE EDITOR or THE HERALD
The passengers passing over the Hudson River
Railroad have been very much exercised OF late by
the headong speed with which the trains are run
around the curves between Kingsbridge and Spuy-
ten Duyvil station. In the rear cars OF the trains
the passengers are frequently almost thrown from
their seats by the momentum, the wheels OF the
cara striking the rails on the curves with force
that would surely break or dsplace them II there
should happen TO be flaw in the iron az the point
OF contact or screw or bolt loose in the seepers.
Now, this thing should be looked into by the rail.
rOad authorities, or your paper will have to chroni-
Gle, at no distant day, disastrous railroad acci-
dent on this road. A C0MMUTER.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
Your Washington correspondent In letter pub
llshed by you yesterday, states that W. A. c. Ryan

mon Cespedes aud myself TO set on foot an expedi-

SALT LAKE Cry Jan Ex-Governor " GODS
appeared before the Legislative Assembly to-
day and read his message. 1t recommends the
passage of mining law also Il law ;S Il basis
Tor AN efficient system Of free schools with Il
tax upon all property for their support also
an appropriation to detray the expenses OF the
commissioner to attend the centennial cclcbra-
ton Of American independence. Ii suggests
the establishment OF an asylum for the Insane,
the necessity of Il system OF railroads To penl
trate every portion OF the Territory and the
decentralization Of Congress Tor the donation
of lands, now unLroductlve aud worthless. to
those who will improve them by irrigation. On
the subject of marriage the Governor dcprccatc>
the violation OF the federal law, on polysamy
and says if one class can violate one law with
impunily and shield themsc Ives behind the
buIwarks Of religious liberation. another can
do likewise with SEINE other law and so on un-
til religious dogmas take the place of the con-
stitution and laws and anarchy ensue>. He
says as friend of the whole people and earnest
" desiring the prosperity Of all, Il urge you to
take such steps as will establish harmony be-
tween Utah and the general government on
this subject. Territories are wards Of the re-
public and as such are snhjcct to the will OF
Congress. The constitution guarantees freedom
of conscience in religion. but it presume> that all
religious convictions shall be in harmony with
the Supreme laws. Otherwise there would be
national suicide There is no statute in
Utah on marriage as it should be. Narriag
may be a sacrament, but it is none the less a
civil contract. This is an established doctrine
of the republic and should be 50 regarded in
this Territory" In conclusion the Governor
pledges himself that to develope the varied re-
sources of the Territory to make more secure
the rights and liberties OF its citizens and to Sc
cure pure and rapid enforcement of its laws he
will give the Legislature his hearty co.opcra-
ton
