A COLUMN editorial in the Ne,r En-
do cme~t on the situation of affairs in
MnrmOndom opens as follows:
Notwithstanding all that has
been written and talegraphed from
here in relation to the Utah prob
lem. t-.ere is not proper apprecia-
ton In the public mind of the
cnnntry of the situation of affairs in
this Territory. nor Of the legislation
that is required to correct existing
evils. The legislation that is de-
manded must come partly from the
Legislative Assembly of the Terri
tory, and in part from Congress. To
the former We look for series of ell
actments on subjects that are strictly
within its province. We must have

deeds, and other Instruments affect

tribntiOn of estates, and law in re-
gard to divorces. which shall not
leave the dissolution of the marriage
contract entirely to the caprice and
whims of one or both of the parties
contracting that important relation.
All these matters belong. in accord
auce with the prered-nts heretofore
by American history. to
the Legislature Of the Territory. We
must confess that there is not much
in the past of Utah to encourage Q
hope Of the passage at the next ses-

We have the charity to believe that
the members of that body will have
the desire to do right. but will they

Heretofore, tho rnling power that

A LARGE number of Intelligent, re
spectacle and Irresponsible" voters in Knox
Vile believe that real estate ring exists
which has been making money at the
expense of the corporation: No attempt
at ridicule is going to change their minds.
They can see with their own eyes where
considerable improvements have been
made to enhance the value of certain
property. They know that but few tax
payers are interested in these improve
ments. The Mayors organ may make as
many sickly attemps to ridicule this idea
as it chooses and not single individual
will change his mind. Defend your acts,
gentlemen, and stop trying to ridicule
those who do not indorse them.
