UNDER the caption OF "A Cold Day for
Utah." the Salt Lake Tribune has ringing
editorial in reference to the resignation OF Eli
H Murray az Governor of that Territory.
The Tribune pays a high tribute to the
work OF the retiring official and to his per-
sonal merit, and concludes as follows: las
long az it is not Mormon work, nor Nor
mon influence. that brought about the re-
suit, with the Administration approving OF
all the vigorous measures taken, and.
above all, with Congress and the Amerl-
can public with us and a sure triumph
ahead, it is not manly to despair. We can
regret the change, and render high and due
honor to the outgoing Governor, and still
keep our loins girded for the fight, with eyes
fixed upon the growing brightness of the
day of d;senthrallment and hearts firm in
the patriotic resolve to do our part, let
come what may. The old guard will be
found in it's place at high noon
of the day of victory and OF the COM
ing OF the sun of freedom in it's splendor." )"
These are the brave words of a man who
has ever been among the most loyal OF the
band who, against fearful odds, have been
upholding the majesty OF the Government
OF the United States against the insidious
attacks and open treason OF the Church OF
the Latter Day Saints. The sentiment
finds al universal response in al! the news

since the resignation OF Nj. Murray. To
this they with one accord ami the sincere

purpose that ch ,racterized his administra

MALICIOUS LIBEL.
The Charge Upon Which VI AbrnnDs
Will BE Tiled To-day.

At 2 O'Clock this afternoon n very inter

Justice Nichols. NJ. Abrams, !, West Park

and NJ. G. Coh1, another dealer in poultry
doing business on the same thoroughfare,
will be plaintiff. The charge will be mali
cious libel. and il will be supported and
opposed by able legal talent.
COhn y complaint states that his business
has been injured by Abrams, who mali
couslv attempted to deiame his chara cter
and impair his credit by writing letters to
parties in the East from whom plaintiff
was receiving goods on time payments. In
these letters, it is charged, Abrams
stated that Cohn was Il gambler
and a consnrt of last women, and that his
general behavior was not such us to invite

Oh business at Grand Island, Nebra ska, and
who was shipping goods on credit to his
brother in Butte. After receiving these
cplstles the brother at Grand Island sus-
pended shipments, and when requested to
furnish an explanation, furnished the let
terr written by Abrams. Hence the suit.
Abrams, whose case will be pleaded by
Messrs. Campbell & Duffy, will not deny
that he wrote the letters in question,

Agent Of the Denver Il Rio Grande Rail-

papers descriptive OF the great mardi gras
procession. We were as much pleased to
hear from our old friend as we were for the

KANSAS CITY, March 19.-Governor Mar.
maduke, OF Missouri, and Governor Mar
tine, OF Kansas, have decided that the
public interest renders it necessary for them
to endeavor to act as mediators in the
present strike. They have prepared a pro-
position which after consideration has
been accepted by the strikers and the two
Governors left tonight for st. Louis to Law
it before the railroad officials. The men
agree to return to work on the basis of the
settlement adopted at the close of the
strike OF a year ago; that is they will come
back on the terms OF the agreement in
force at the time they struck, simply max
ing the request that the question of in
creasins the wages OF the bridge and track
men be taken into account. The matter
OF Halls reinstatement on the Texas e.
Pacific is not mentioned in the promo.
sition.

terence with the heexecutivele delegates this even

Baltimore, earning precarious living by
