HOEaOns Anxious 60 Sell Out
There are indications ia New York.
according 20 8 correspondent 0f rs
Cjnciandti Commercial Gazette, that
the operation Of the Edmunds bin with
reference TO polygamy has had an I'M
expected effect upon the leaders Of thG
Mormon church. The control Of that
church IS vested in the president and
his twelve apostles. It has been gen
orally supposed that they held q vast
amount Of properly for the church
The amount however appears 90 be
comparatively limited, and under
pressure Of the Edmunds bill they
have been impelisd 60 make q prOffeF
Of the sale Of AL their principal pes
sessions TO 8 syndicate OF eastern cap
italists, with the intention oE emts
grating 90 Mexico and taking wish
them such Of their followers as can BE-
induced to leave Utah. The PROPOSE
ton has been laid before several large
eastern capitalists, who have been in
vlted to consider it purely from q
business standpoint. The agent im
the matter Is John w. Young, q SON
Of Brigham Young by his first wife,
Young was one Of the contractors for
the building OF the Union Pacific rOadI
and rs q sharp business man. He has
this mission, and has one Of his wives
with him. He was here about year
ago with brother and SOM &C Which
time 50 many Mrs. YOungs were reg
ister6d at the hotel where they
stopped that it became q mOoted
question whether the practices OF
MOrmOnism we're not being carried on
in New York. Thus far Young has MAIDS
no progress beyond getting a hearing
from capitalists, who have taken hi1
scheme under consideration. A gene
tleman who formerly lived IN Utah
said to your correspondent tO-daVd
cit has long been the desire Of q
strong faction Of the active leaders
among the Mormons 90 get away from
Utah. 1 presume that the oonVicGiOE
under the Edmunds bill has given the
excuse for pressing their views on thG
rest Of the church. There is very liza
tie common property held By the
church. The territory Is districted4
Each district is given over TO am
apostle. There are upwards Of one.
hundred bishops, chosen for thoiH
business capacity. The bishops Eid
lent partner is the apostle for his dis
trict The entire scheme is TO get up
q monopoly OF trade. No other Nor
mon is allowed 70 start store. and
the MOrmOns are forbidden TO trade
with the gsutiies. II an -uffa.E e gEnua
ertV has been made 70 eastern capital
lists, It e the property Of individuals
1t may be q big scheme 20 sell lanGi
that Is otherwise unstable. The
MOrmORs are equal TO any such trick,
and the YOungs are sharpe enough tO
put it through"

And Ruth kept also the old picture,
which, with its story, Is an heirloom.

Institutes.
Communicated


It has been the custom, for some
time, to hold State Institutes for the
benefit Of schools and school teachers;
but the Institutes of Mimi, for the
most part, are nuisance. They are
a great expense to the State and to
teachers without any benefit to either.
No teacher, worthy Of a second
grade certificate, gets one iota of ben
eft from all the bombast that he
hears at al institute harangue. What
is the value of all the new methods OF
which they boast? Scarcely anyone
Of them can be applied to common
schools. The methods are good enough
to talk about, but very poor to use or
to apply. When the institute instruc-
tors teach methods that can be used
and applied, then, and not till then,
will institutes be anything but a nui-
sance, an imposition and a shame.
What have institute instructors
taught teachers, in the last five years,
with all their perpetual ranting!
Nothing at all but what anyone, with
an ounce of sense and spoonful Of
brains. could have written on ten
cents worth of fool-scap.
TuEO. TOBIAS.
