The Mormons are much frightened since the convic-

American people satisfied that John ID. Leo richly
deserved death. And yet they fully satisfied that
he was the instrument Of tho massacre only, and that
the men back OF Lee, who ordered and directed the
massacre have not yet been brought to justice Tho
most criminal still ut large. Such beng the case,
they DO not want newspaper reporters at Salt Lake
City who keep continually stirring the matter. The
Mormons want peace and quiet. They don't want TO
