The Tribune declines to answer''-refuses
to state the amount it received for the Gov
eminent printing two years ago, and urges :
as an excuse that to do SO would be ''to Law
bare Its business affairs for its 1.-THE DEMO
oRAT'sl inspection" The excuse is a very ,
lame one, to be sure, considering the assev-
eratlons the Tribune has made about sneyer
having received dollar from the Govern :
ment that it has not honestly earned" The c
DEMOCRAT challenges the Tribune to make I
public the amount of its bill for the work I
referred to. c
lit is not an uncommon thing iii the States I
and Territories for the members of the I
Legislatures to visit public buildings and in 7
for instance, an insane q
asylum: The Utah Legislature will there Z
tore follow good precedent when its MEM =
oers inspect the Territorial institution at
Provo next week. The one thing to be re- a
yretted is that the department. for naturals a
ind idiots is not yet ready for patients. If e
It were, the Legislature might be proftably
snsmalled by leaving a few of its chronic 81
md hopeless cases in an institution to which \
hey rightfully belong.

,ickery in the giving out of that work, and az
sserted that it had "a right to know all S.
bout the matter, and the public have q n,
ght to know Granted. But how does mr.
lie 1ribunes claim in this respect harmon ri
Q with its refusal to let the public know The +.
mount it received for the Government print =.
g two years ago? Can it be possible that pr
e public have "a right TO know all about tn
