THE VILLAINS.

When those men who are telegraph
ing, writing and publishing it to the
world that Utah is on the verge OF riot
and lawlessness, think what they are
doing, do they not feel that they are
base scoundrels2 Is there a place on
the top of the earth, inhabited by
human beings, where there is less hkeli
hood of popular outbreak against the
authority of the law then right here IN
Utah? If there is such spot, viii he
who knows of its existence please name
the place? When man says there is
danger here OF any such outbreak as
has been reported as threatening, be
that man an official or private citizen,
he simply lies, and lies wilfully. There
has never been but one uncomfortable
riot in Salt Lake City, though there
have been many outrages and occur
ences here which if they had happened
elsewhere, would have caused popular
uprisings and violent disregard of law
and authority The mob to which we
refer was thing of the moment; had
action been delayed half an hsur, even
the dastardly deed which turned men
mad and made them uncomfortable for
the time could not have excited the
public to the point Of an outburst
and the riot would never have oc-
Cured, and the burly negro
who shot down an old. an
honored and an efficient officer
without progocation, might have been
al large, or almost as bad, an inmate of
the Penitentiary defying the law TO
punish him for hi crime. as others
have done and are doing to-day. The
people felt so thoroughly ashamed on
that occasion that they had lost their
heads for a moment, that it would re-
quire even more than the great provo
cation then given to set them off again.
A mob to-dayis among the improba-
blities, and everybody knows it. and
al this sensational writing and these
highly c0lored stories are malicious
falsehoods; they are the inventions Of
the enemies to peace and good order;
OF the thieves and villains who would
like to see wreck and ruin brought upon
Utah, that they might fatten in the
plumber. The men who are trying to
have the Territory placed under mar
tial law, give the lie to their representa-
tons in that they move about town,
night aad day, nor only without moles-
tation, but without fear. There is not
one O. them bntfees safer here than he
wouid in an other city in the Union
Too much contempt Tor these scoun-
dTels cannot be entertained; they are
deserving the execrations Of all decent
people, because they are enemies to
society, to good order and to truth.
They would be ridden from some com
munities on a rail: but they are safe
here, and they know it, hence they
give the malice that Is IN their hearts
faH play.

by the Bostonians. Last summer, no
ticing that his wife entertained an IN
necessarily warm regard for Downs, hel

she visiting him at his study
and he calling frequently on
her at her residence during the
absence of Taber. Finally Taber
and an officer stood watch over his own
house, and some time after the en-
trance of the minister tried the door,
only to find it locked. Gaining entrance,
they found Mrs. Taber. partly III :
dressed, sitting on the bed, and Downs,
in his shirt-sleeves, on a trunk. The
husband instituted suit for divorce en-
the ground of adultery, and few weeks
ago his petition was granted. This was
followed by the indictment OF Mrs.
Faber and the Rev. Downs, on the
charge of adultery. The church officials
now thoughtit time to get rid OF Downs,
and as he declined to go on respect
fully worded request, the doors were
barred and constables placed on guard
to keep him out of the building. Downs
Immediately hired the largest hall In
the city of Boston. and week ago last
Sunday preached to an audience filling
every seat and all the aisles, and COM
posed largely of the "best peo-
pie" of the city, many of them
being fashionable J young women.
Mrs. Taber, who has been an inmate of
Downs house since the court declared
she and her pastor were guilty of
adultery, was present occupying con-
spicuous seat, and while her lecherous
paramour was knocking religion by pre-
tending to be pure teacher of Christ's
word, she brazenly smiled ON the con
gregation. A collection. was taken up
and over hundred dollars contributed
to the purse of this sanctimonious
scohndrel. He is the lion of Boston
to-day, and hundreds of those who
flock to see and hear him and who
contribute to his support in life of

in their presence unaccompanied by a
sneer. ferrs
This Massachusetts, case is not by any
means singular. 1t illustrates a rule
rather than an exception. Those who
pirate loudest against the Mormons, who
are so vigorous and earnest in opposing
the Saints are too often found corrupt
at heart and lewd in practice. Here
at home this truth is demon
strated almost every day, and
at this time is being proven
in a oststriking manner, in the frantic
efforts OF many of the prominent
to prevent the NUM-
cipal authorities from investigating
charges of iasciviousness.
The Boston men and women who pat
rOnize the Rev. Downs should blush to
raise their voices against the Mormons,
and the Salt Lake male prostitutes
should be ashamed to speak against the
marital practices OF the Saints.

AN account of the atrocious and
eowardly attempts to blow up the En-
glish Parliament houses and the Tower
OF London on last Saturday afternoon
with dynamite, will be found in another
column. The attempt to destroy the
Parliament buildings was cowardIy be
yond language to express, for the reason
that the British Legislature was not in
session on Saturday, but a large number
Of visitors. composed of men, women
and children, were passing around in
different parts of the building. No
lives were lost and only few persons
were injured. The men who EN- bark in
these netariOus and murderous under
takiugs, are the worst enemies Of the
Irish cause, and the certain consequence
Of their insane and brutal folly will be
10 rivet more firmly the claimso of British
oppression around poor, suffering Ire
land. Only two days before this dyna-
mite explosion Mr.. Parnell in speech
at Cork, congratulated his countTymen
upon the bright future that was in
store for the people of Ireland, and this
hendish act on Saturday is almost
enough to blight Mr.. Parnell's hopes as
well as the hopes of all his true follow
ers. The Irish priests and the Irish
Il ewspapers denOunce the outrage Ill
most vigorous terms, and the Irishmen
in London at d public meeting held on
Sunday condemned the explosions as
cruel, cowardly and Injurious to Irish
men who will lose their employment in
England in consequence of them. The
belief in London is that the dynamite
is manufactured in that city and not
taken over from New York, the London
Gazette expressing its belief that "if
O'Donovan Rosa was hanged to- morrow
and the collection for the Skirmishing
Fund made criminal offence it would
fail to stop the Outrages."

THE Old project of erecting a new
county out of parts of Indiana, Cambria
and Clearfeld, with Cherrytree as the
County seat, has been revived and is be-
ing earnestly agitated As no special
law for the erection of a new county out
of parts of adjoining counties can be
passed under she new Constitution, the
starting point in the present movement
must be the passage of a general law
regulating the formation of new cOun-
ties, and the citizens of Cherrytree, we
understand, propose to have such law
enacted, and then under it's provisions
secure by a subsequent act :heir new
county project. 1t will be a hard road
to travel and beset with many difficult
ties and distractions, as they will be
pretty sure to find out, but they may
nevertheless succeed, since where there
is a will there is always, or nearly al
ways, way. At the session OF 1850,
thirtY-fYe years ago, this same question
of new county to be called Pine and
CherTytree as the county seat, was be-
fore The House at Harrisburg, and after
a warm contest passed that body by a
small majority. The chances we're that
it would pass the Senate, unless 1t could
be managed by the enemies of the bill
to have it referred to select committee
of three members in that branch, with
Augustus Drum, OF Indiana, then the
Senator from this district, as Chairman.
F. This was successfully accomplished by
.he then member from jefferson county
going to the then member from Clear
field county, who was the champion OF
the measure, and Inviting him to g
down to Blady's Hotel and get drink
of whisky. He went, and while he was
absent, William Jack, now a banker in
/ Hollidaysbnrg, but then Clerk Of the
House, took the bill over to the Senate
where on Drums motion it was referred
to a select committee of three, himself
being Chairman, and that was the last
of Pine" county for that session. Had
not the gentleman from Clearfield'
gone out for drink at Brady's, the bill
would have been legitimately referred
to the Committee on New Counties il
the Senate, and III all human probabiIi
/ ty "Pine'' county would have oecomt
a axed fact at Harrisburg and would
/ have been organized without any uune
! cessary delay.

MORROW b. LOWRY, once a very

died in KirkbTide's asylum near Phila-

year of his age. As long ago as 1871 he
and J. Porter Brawley were elected to
the Legislature from Crawford county as
Democrats, and Mr.. Lowry, having af-
forwards turned Republican was elected
nine times to the State Senate from
Crawford and Erie counties. At one
of his elections his Democratic opponent
was Dan Rice, the we'll known circus
man and clown. who was also at that
time labOring under the delusion that
he would make an available Democratic
candidate for the Presidency. Mr. Lowry
had been hOrelessly insane for many
years. He was a man OF undoubted tai

Mr.. LOWRY, a member Of the Legis-
lature from Indiana county, has offered
bill 10 amend the Constitution by re-
ducing the membership of the House
to 100, the old number. The change
suggested ought to be made for reasons
as thick as blackberries, but MI. Low
ry's bill will not pass tor all that. The
provisions iu' the new Constitution
doubling the number of members of the
House, was the work of Ex-Governor
Curtin, who was a member of the Con-
stitutiOnal Convention. AT least we
have always understood 50, and have
been told o! the motives that prompted
his action. 1t was huge mistake, and
if the voters of the State ever get
chance they vii! strike it out of the
Constitution by phenomenal majority.
