OFT OF JOINT,

The Mormon organs at Salt Lake are
somewhat defiant in regard to matters
and things in Utah Territory. The Her
aid says: The kilograms report that
President Grant will again refer to Utah
in his annual message, urging legislation
by Congress to settle what he is pleased
to allude to as the Judicial complications
existing in this Territory. This was to
be expected by all who know General
Grants fixidity of purpose, seeing he
has twice before referred to it in annual
messages, sent special message to Con-
gress on the subject, and descended from
the dignity of the Chief Magistracy to
log-roll bill through Congress, without
success. We beg TO tell General Grant that
he is mistaken, because misinformed;
and that the only complication in judi
cial matters in Utah arises from the con-
Trajectory decisions of one man, an ap-
pointee of his own. We undertake to
prove this before any commission ap-
pointed to investigate the matter We
aver that the official and whisky ring
of Utah have wiifully and deliberately
stated untruths, ard we stand ready to
prove it. We aver that there is official
corruption and incompetency here of the
most fragrant character, and the evidence
is on hand to sustain the averment. We
declare that the main allegations of the
ring" are false, and that some of its
members have been guilty of otfenses
which should not only rob them of Off
cial position, but OF the respect even Of
decent men. And we challenge investi'
cation from Congress. Ii these men are
so firmly entrenched as they declare, LET
them second this demand for inyestiga'
ton. They cannot say that this chal'
lenge is put forth with the view of STAY.
ing off action towards the close of Con
gressional session. We make it now be-
fore Congress meets, and dare them &c
sustain it. We know their corruption
and know that they cannot bear the light
Of strict examination. What says Con.
gress and the country TO our position?
