"what Fools These Mortals Be. ;

1t is not by any means a secret that
the ranks of the Federal officials and
that bitterer element of the noR-Mor-
mon class which draws its inspiration
from Tribune sources. were in a boil and
a ferment yesterday over the fect-it is
humlliating 10 have to say it-that the
civic reception to His Exceliency Cover
nor West resulted in so grand success.
IL was freely said by prominent gentle
men at the ball that an effort had been
made during the day TO organize a
movement by which every nonMorm0n
who had received al invitation was TO
stay away from the ball. Half dozen
people seem TO have made themselves
busy in running about on this deleet-
able GRAND, and among them p. II.

was in a tempest yesterday all day, and
one would have supposed from the
gathering that some national calamity
was being discussed. About one half
the groups seemed TO be demanding
reasons of the other half for attending
the reception. and explanations. execra-
tons, sarcasms and pleasantries of all
kinds were openly expressed. One

had been at the Theatre; another said
that prominent members of the Alta
Club had been among the guilty"
ones, so that the reception would prob
ably come of at the Walker House at
an early date.
The reason understood to be advanced
by General AcCook for the absence of
the Post officers is that they had upheld
Governor Aurrav's regime, and as they
did not think the reception was much
of q compliment" 10 him, they could
not consistently attend. As If honor

fact that list Of the names of all the
camp officers was prepared by Lieuten-

that list. il will appear to most people
that the absence OF the military was
due to the fact that the boy cotting"

obeyed out of mistaken
idea that il was to be universally obeyed
