SUMMER.

The almanacs tell us that summer has
come again. We do not, however, need
this announcement in the types, for the
knowledge comes as naturally as the
season; it is found in the rare days and
the blue skies, in rich verdure of the
fields, in the mellow evenings, in the
cheerful songs of the birds, in the
foliage on The trees, in all nature, which
says the reign of the bright and joyous
spring has ended and the seeptre been
assumed by her more staid and per-
haps less lovely sister. The sun, which
is the grand ruler, has proclaimed the
change. and the calendars must adjust
themselves to his DEGREES. Happily
there is no disagreement this time, the
larmonies being maintained by all.

June takes the place of May causes US

ciety and overturning the government
Itself, for too often the lawful authority
for this mode of gaining wealth has been
obtained by bribery and corruption of
legislators and administrators, it is true,
yet nevertheless obtained and lawfully
held.
Thinking people often wonder if there
will ever come an end to the reign of
this King Monopoly who is so terrible
to the Americans; and thinking people
also ask themselves how that end will be
brought about, should it come at all.
When the end does come it VIII be
through the people rising up and throt-
Ting the monster, but it Is doubtful if
this uprising will occur while all, rich
and poor, are such mad worshipers of
Mammon.

and the daily newspapers number
four, while there are more than the
customary issues of semi-weeklies,

so on. An inspection of the newspaper
directories will show no other town in
America with an equal population, sup

better, the newspapers here are sustained
in manner and with a generosity that

really first-class newspapers. New

than those Of Salt Lake, and here and

able ard enterprising journal appears,
but no city in the Union with no greater
population than this city boasts, fur

Quantity of news published or the
quality of their contents generally;
while our home papers are a long

newspapers, but rather as good word
