The Eagle in Utah.
SALT LAKE, Utah, July 5.-At the cele-
| bration here today Gov. Murray an
nounced his policy. which is that of the
Republican party. He said: The
tree of liberty planted in 1776 had
| grown broad enough to shelter all
| patriots, native born or naturaliZed, and
was rich in timber for scaffolds and
collins for those who conspireG to break
down our constitution, and who violated
our unwritten laws. No state would
ever Ice wiped out, no star oblIterated
| from the flag, but no new state would
be admitted TO the Union whose people
are not free from kingly or priestly die
tatIon in civic affairs. Utah should be
| free, and then, and not till then, state
The shackles that bind her people to the
superslitions of the deld past should by
their own acts be broken. Then,
with her great natural resources and
commanding positions, Utah would go
forth in unison with civilization and the
law To the great future"
The speech was well received by the
gathering, which was chiefly Gentiles,
the Mormons reserving the expression
of their patriotism for Pioneers Day,
