HARMONY IN UTAH.
MOlmOns and Gentiles Putting
Aside Their Differences for the
/ mmOn Good,

Mr. R. W. Sloan, the manager of the
SALT LAKE DAILY HERALD, is in the
city doing missionary work for both
Mormons and Gentiles. He said yes
terday that they had been trying for
some time to stop quarrelling out in
Salt Lake City, and had succeeded ad-
mirably. There are, as there always is
likely to be, differences of opinions
between Gentiles and Mormons, he
aid. but the animosities no longer ap-
pear in business dealings nor in local
public improvements.
AT the municipal election held last
February" Mr.. Sloan said, -four
prominent anti-Mormons were made
members of the City Council by Nor
mon votes. 1t was the result of con-
cession by Mormons and accepted by
Gentiles. On all questions of local i'm
provements and of the advancement of
Salt Lake City materially both parties
stand as unit. They go into business
ventures jointly, they celebrate the
Fourth of July together, and they
contribute alike of their funds to
popular subscriptions devised tor the
purpose of setting forth our natural re-
sources and advantages.
Il think both sides are pretty well
tired of quarreling. 1t was constant
drawback to the city, and the desire to
participate in the prosperity of other
western cities has had a great deal to
do with bringing about little COM
muuity of feeling. Any marked mater
ial advancement was impossible without
united effort on the part of all classes of
citizens. There never has been time
when property and life was unsafe in
Utah, though such an imdression has
prevailed. But we are only now
awakening to the fact that it is not
enough for US 70 know property and
life to be safe, nor that Utah is so won
derfully blessed in minerals and in agri-
cultural and manufacturing possibili
ties. We must get these facts before
the people OF the cyuntry and convince
them of our sincerely and determine
ton to build up grand State there one
of these early years. So every man is
doing all he can TO forward the cause.
We hope to induce men of means to In
vestigate the possibilities Of our ways
for investment. and We are sure an ex-
animation will be fc flowed with the re-
suit we desire.
Induce people to go to Utah to live.
Let the papers convince men of means
that there is no safer place IN the world

booth was added, making as complete
and comfortable place as could well
be had. To add to the general comfort,
a good shower in the morning had we'll
laid the dust.
AS materials for use there was fur
nished, first about 81 900 worth CT lum-

c. R. SAVAGE.
We have here to-day the pio-
neer tanner OF Utah. We nave
all heard the sage saying. There is
nothing like leather" and certainly
some credit is due to the aged pioneer
who made us our first leather. did
not see Mr.. Mulliner's first effort,
but l believe it was generally pretty
good. A facteous person, speaking of
our early efforts, said, "You could
wear off both sides and then fry the

the tanner. l introduce to you Sam
uel, the pioneer tanner of Utah, and l
have the honor to present to him a gold
medal, given by E. J. Swaner & Bro, of
Salt Lake City.
Mr.. Mulliner responded in a few
we'll chosen words.
After "Auld Lang Syne" had been
sung by the choir,
MR. GEORGE GODDARD
was introduced. He said: 81 never
addressed more venerable company
than this. There are oyer geo people
here to day over 20 years of age. This
is our 18th anniversary. When pass
behind the veil my first work shall be to
inquire for the good angel who first
whispered to my colleague Z. R. Savage
the idea of these excursions. When we
came to Lehi three weeks ago to inquire
about facilities, all present expressed
their willingness to aid on this occasion.
l feel to say you have nobly done your
part. Amen.
Three cheers for Mr.. Savage wers
heartily given.
Mr.. G. R. SAvAGE.-We have a gold
medal for the man who turned the first

His Excellency, Governor West. On
the unloading of the train, our facili-
ties were manifest as the aged stepped
from the cars to special platform.
and from the platform Immediately
into the grove, thus saving the loading
and unloading into wagons of the aged
many of whom are OF substantial
weights.
Immediately after the unloading and
seating, the viaDGs were served and
apparently full justice done, the bands
playing most of the time, which con-
commenced by the singing by the Old
Folks Choir of Ere the Sun Goes
Down"
Prayer was offered by Elder George
Goddard, and after more music by the
band, the
ADDRESS OF WELCOME
was made by Bishop T. R. Cutter,
who thanked the committee for bring
ing the company to Lehi. and expressed
pleasure that the Governor had graced
it with his presence. This is the first
that the old folks have come to Lehi.
We hope that it will not be the last.
You are welcome to all that we have,
and we ask you to excuse our crude
efforts made for your entertainment.
Following this, cane music on Scotch
pipes by w. @. Dunbar, and music by
the joint bands, Hail Columbia.
G. R. Savage now introduced
GOV. WEST,
saying that this was the first time a
Governor of Utah had ever graced our
annual gathering of old folks.
Gov. West spoke about as follows
This is to me very novel experience,
but very agreeable one. 1 have often
met with gatherings of young people,
but never before with a gathering of the
old. When first l came to Utah, heard
of this yearly movement, and was
struck with its beauty and benevoience,
but had no idea of its extent. This is
the first time | have met with you'll
hope it will not be the last. l think
there is not in the world more beauti-
full and loving custom. | know not to
whom we are first indebted for its be-
ginning, but l understand it is to
gentleman here present. l believe
1 can say for him that if he
has never done another good act
in his life, this act should entitle him to
= place in heaven. All titles of honor
here to- day, are titles of age only. The
commandment is Honor they father
and thy mother" To-day you are
manifesting love, honor and obedience
for the old. What have these lives
gone through, the last forty years
All remember that forty years ago, this
spot was desert. Through the labors
of such as these we have to-day. our
beautiful and comfortable surroundings.
The young who are here to-day, are
also benefited. because of the truth,
1t is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive." | rejoice to see you all so
happy and contented. hope you will
continue to be blessed and prosperous,
and that as long as the sun shines, and
the breezes blow, this happy and ap-
propriate custom may continue.
Three cheers for the Governor were
heartily responded to.

vate it. God bless you all. Amen.
George Openshaw, over 20, gave re-
citation in Lancashire dialect, which
was thoroughly enjoyed.
MR.. NAIsBITT
was the next speaker. He said
1t has been all 1 could do to-day to re-
strain my feelings. l am proud to be
with the old people, proud because |
know their labors in the past, who
have plowed the field, dug the bitches
and built the houses. Much labor has
been needed to turn these once deserts
into fruitful fields. But not mere labor
has accomplished these results. Faith
was needed. and faith mas done much
in acc )mplishing these things. l have
travelled in Utah and seen its people.
l feel can vouch for them for their To-
yalty, honesty and truth. l am glad
our governor is with US to day, glad be-
cause he can see US in our homes, and
home life, and will be abe to form a
true estimate of us, as L believe It will
be for his good and ours. | am thank
full to the people of Lehi, who have so
nobly provided for all these aged peo-
pie to day. Also to the committee who,
like all truely generous, are too modest
to represent themselves; also to the
railroad company, who have always
met US literally. God b ess the old
folks, and as we do to them, may we be
so done by when we become aged.
