LEGGED GENTLE CONSPIRACY.
3 For the Miner, bp q Special Correspondent.
It will be remembered 1 devoted my last let
ter to q description of scenes and incidents con-
nected with the general state of affairs in Salt
Lake City and vicinity and I now propose to
present a few more facts about that part of
Utah ere introducing those obtained during my
journey ~northward.
R UNDERTAKING.
Many of the residents of the valley have tried
what they call dry-fafming, this year; that is
the cultivation of the soil without irrigation.
A few only have met with success, and that is
but partial. The dependency existing in macy
directions is very deep. 1t is due to a variety of
causes, the most of which are traceable TO the
duplicities that nave been inflicted upon the too
confiding Mormon followers and the rascalities
practiced by the Mormon leaders. Zion is not,
therefore, q roseate place just now. The fruit
and trees were whiting for want of water and
large areas of valuable and greatly needed tim
Der were vanishing into smoke as the t~entacles
of great roaring and devouring flames reached
them. There was drought, grumbling and dis
satisfaction everywhere and yet the unctuous
Saints who occupy the highest and most con-
snicuous seats in the colossal anditor;rn q, tho
Mecca of the Church, as 1t is called, have the
effrontery to go right on preaching in the most
sonorous and doematical manner that thoro
of all others in the universe (next to jackson
county, Missouri), is the II ~ 24921EHTE
