OGDEN, Utah, February 1.-THE most
important election that has ever taken
place in Utah, occurred to-day. 1t was
fight by the Gentiles, or Liberal party,
tor foothold in the Territory, by the
election Of the Mayor and Council. The
new City Hall was crowded at all it's
entrances, where the election was pro-
ceeding at four different ballot boxes.
The city voted as a whole, and not by
wards, and, tc accommodate the large
number of voters, four voting places were
necessary. The Mormons, or Peoples
party, now have the officers of the city,
and at daylight brass bands and drum
corps were promenading the streets
with the beginning of voting.
The system of intimidation commenced
on the part of the Mormons, by arresting
Gentiles before they had a chance to
vote and hurrying them off to jail. This
was anticipated by the opposite party,
who had Marshal Dyer present, and a
squad of United States troops quartered
in the Broom Hotel across the street.
The Marshal at once stopped the arrests
until the voter had a chance to tender his
vote and be passed upon by the Judge.
After this the election passed off quietly.
The result will not be determined before
midnight.
[Later.] The result of to-day's election
is complete victory for the Liberal or
Gentle party. Fred Kiesel, candidate
for mayor, is elected by a majority of 44O.
The balance of the ticket, including the
full City Council and Chief of Police, are
elected by about the same majority.
The Gentiles are jubilant over the result.

Associated Press DISPATCHES to the HERALD
INDIANAPOLIS, February 11.-Nothing
new has developed to-day about the
Cabinet. There is perceptible decrease
in the daily volume of Cabinet talk.
General Harrison's 's visitors to-day were
from widely different sections-M -Massa-
chusetts, Washington Territory and New
Mexico being represented. Delegate
elect John Allen, of Walla Walla,
Washington Territory, was accompanied
in his call by John M. Butler, of this
city, and Judge Gould, of Delhi. Allen
made no cabinet suggestions to General
Harrison, but spoke urgently on behalf
of his people for the admission of Wash
ington Territory, along with Dakota and
the others, stating that the people were
united and anxious for Statehood.
James A. Spradling, OF Santa Fe, New
Merican, called to advocate his old
friend, General Powell Clayton, for a
place in the Cabinet. Mr.. Spradling is
an earnest advocate of Statehood for
New Mexico, and vigorously repels
not prepared and able to sue
cessfully assume Independent govern
ment. He says the objection at this
time comes from few politicians and
bankers in the Territory, who perceive
that if the Territory is admitted, they
will lose their grip on the control of
affairs. The statement, widely pub
lished, that the official records of the
Legislature and courts are kept in tt Q
Spanish language only, he declares is q
falsehood. He is the Public Printer of
the Territory. Spradling also says
that there are three promin-
ent names mentioned for the Gov
ernorship of New Mexico-Joseph
w. Dwyer, of Ration, formerly private
secretary to Chief Justice Chase A. L.
Morrison, of Santa Fe, ex United States
Marshal under Arthur, who took prom
inent part in the late late campaign in
New York as an organizer of Irish Amer
ican Republican leagues, and L. Brad
ford, ex-Chief Justice of the Territory
under President Hayes.

Our esteemed contemporary, the
Tribune, has taken what it calls "step
forward" by ensmalling its issue from
eight to four pages. This it has right
to do, and the HERALD, further than ex-
tending it good will. would have nothing
to say about it if the Tribune had not
said, in substance, that Los Angeles
could not support an eight.page journal.
We have found an assured patronage in
this community which justifies US in
publishing an eight-page paper, and, in
truth, we could not print the favors OF
advertisers were we not to do 80. AT
times we have found ourselves embar-
rassed in crowding advertising and read
ing matter even into that space, being
compelled, quite frequently, to print ten
and twelve page editions. The Tribune
has done right to ensmall; for, TO,
months and yet weary months, it has
been carrying from fifteen to sixteen
columns OF dead advertisements. Our
contemporary has perfect right to state
its position after any fashion it pleases,
but it should not misrepresent the news
paper situation in this city; which, at
least as far as the HERALD is concerned,
is healthy and thriving.
