Moro About that Error In Tax Ger
tifcates. ="

The Witness undertakes TO refute
oar position on the illegality Of the
publication Of the last delin-
quent land list. Half of it's
article is devoted to throwing dmt.
II assumes that we sought the cor
rcctior If the error in that publicQ-
ton for the purpose of bringing re-.
prosch upon Mr.. Lester, the comfy
Treasurer. The fact is that in all
our references and in conversation
with members OF the Board we studi-
ously avoided making any reflections
upon Mr.. Lester. No personal mem
ton vas made at all. Indeed, we
made special effort not to cast refec
tons in any direction Bat now we
will say that the trosble with the
Witness man ia that the error was
his MIR Lester made out his list in
part ten days before the Witness pub
lished IT, But the pious editor re
membered that the HERALD the year
before had got the list after il was
given to the other papers, IN time to
publish il four times before the day
Of sale Ho thought it would be
smart to hold back a week this year
aud not let the HERALD have chance
to 10 that. II was the Witness man
that1Nasto blame for the failure, and
he should never have been paid q
cent for his Illegal publication. When
we rallied against Mr. Lester before
the nomination we thought it was
his fault, but, learning better, we have
never named him in that connection
since. We kHoo he did wrong in rot
giving the publication to the HERALD,
but that is not the point in dispute.
The "W eakness" is not satisfied with
throwing dirt upon the HERALD, but
must take in the members Of The
Board who believed as it does. 1t
says:
The true inwardness Of the whole busines IS
might hAye beea little more apparent had
INV resolution been presented by the parties
more directly interested, instead OF making a
catspaw OF our Democratic friend from the
south part Of the county.
This is the way it undertakes to in
jure Mr.. Her, who introduced the
resolution of inquiry. 1t says fur.
iher:
1--WE do not believe he would have had anr.
thing TO do with it at al. had he not been I'M
portuued to do so by the HERAIo and few
OF its friends. We know that other part les
were approached on the subject, but they de-
clsred they would have nothing to do with t."
The TACT is that instead Of our 10
ing to Mr.. Her he approached" US.
We had raised the question in the
HERALD, aud be as q dutiful servant
Of the people made use of the first
opportunity he had to inquire further
as to the facts. The "Weakness's"
ave know that other parties were
approached" &c, is also falsehood
There was but one single member of
the Board to whom we mentioned
the matter before he did TO us, and
that one we happened to observe
<was reading the short paragraph in
the HERALD calling teut;on to it.
We did not speak OF the matter at
ail 70 mAre than four Of the members.

SOME OF the political journals IN

over the republican family quarrel
in this city. Especially is this the
case with the Grant papers. They
can see no justice in the central COM
mittee here usurping authority and
sending Blaine delegates to Chicago.
when republican sentiment in Utah is
clearly for Grant first, and Blaine
away down on thu list of " choices"
We understand the'tWo factions, that is
the central committee and the repub-
licans, are each taking steps towards
getting their respective delegates into
the convention and excluding the
other. The committee will stand BY
its action as legitimate and proper,
taking no part in the convention next
Tuesday, and treating the party as
boilers; while the republicans will 60
ahead. elect their delegates to Che
national convention, and try tc
change the present representative in
the national committee for one o.
their own choosing. Utah's two
votes in the Chicago convention may
be important, and which set of dele
gates that will get in depends upor
the performance of the Grant 0.
Blaine sentiment in the meeting.
