The report received to-day says:
The reform in Utah is progressing
favorably, far beyond our most san
guine anticipations. Utah is forging to
the front among the Rocky Mountain

mines and hoUrisaing condition OF her
cities and towns. A great deal Of cap

MOrmons in city lots, farming lands
and mining prose rty, and such invest
ments are as safe there as in any ether
State or Territory; that is to say, there
is not the slightest danger of an insar-
rection, nor, in our opinion,
is there any danger of adverse
legislation that Will Jeopardize personal
from sexual offenses, which are deeid-

pie of Utah VIII compare favorably
with other communities for peace, good
order, sobriety, honesty and industry.

have wisely resolved that the practice
of polygamy should De abandoned.
Eve are thoroughly satisfied say the
commissioners, ",4hat the work of re-
formation in Uteh Is progressing rap
