COUNT OUR GAINS.

It is sometimes said that in Utah
there are two civilizations, each strug-
Cling for supremacy. For distinction
here they may be called Mormon and
Gentle civilization. The enemies of
Mormon civilization say that it is ORR
entail in its character, while they claim
fol unrlI OWN that it Is AngIo-Saxon.
As it is not our purpose to discuss at
present whether Mormon civilization is
Oriental in its character or not, We
shall pass it, pausing only long enough
to say that while the Mormons not only
believe it right under some circum-
stances, but a religious duty, for them
to marry more wives than one, their
way of life in nothing resembles that of
the Orient, except in those features that
are common between other Anglo
Saxon peoples and the people of the
east.
What we have for convenience con-
sented to call Mormon civilization, was
established in these mountain valleys
first. then followed what for CONVEX l.
ence we call Gentle civilization, which
is supposed to possess all the virtues,
and to be so far superior to the former,
that comparison between them would
be like comparing farthing rushlight
to the elegant brightness of the noon
day sun. If that be true it may be
reasonably expected that when this
beasted superior civilization" struck
Utah. 1t at once covered our territory
with its brightness and warmth, and
that the farthing rush light became OBJ
scured, even as the stars hide their de-
minished heads in the presence of the
rising sun. Or at least we may expect
that it has turned comparative dark
ness into light wherever it has been es-
tsblished. For as one of Sankey's re
Vival hymns puts it:
Then is your lamp burning my brother?
I pray thee look quickly and see,
For II IL is burning then surely,
Its rags must have fallen on me.
But to know just how. much Mormon
civilization has been benefited by Gen
tile civilization. insinuatlng itself into
the Territory, it Will be necessary to
understand the state of society here
before this boosted superior civil
lization" made its appearance. We
must know how dense was the dark
ness in order to understand how bril-
liant the light is that has fallen upon US.
The Mormon people were led TO brave

escape the intolerance and cruelty of

,anying each expulsion with deeds of

hame savage. They settled in these
alleys, then series of deserts. And
was, at the time, uncertain whether

that statement infer that all the non
Mormons of Utah by any means would
sanction that encouragement, and
doubtless there are many Gentiles in
Utah, who sincerely deplore the growth
of immortality in our Territory, and
are willing to do what they are able to
do, in common with al good men of
every sect and party. to stay the in

has not improved the moral condition
Of Utah; its tendencies have had the
