condescension and petrified wisdom so sug-
gestive of the owlappearing and baked bean
fed Bostonian; others are philosophical,
others statistical, others denunciatory,
some few humorous and very few just
and fair, nothing extenuating nor setting
down aught in malice.
Here, for example, is an extract from
country exchange, which concludes that
utah is rapidly arriving at the point when
in the matter of population she Will be en-
titled to consideration at the hands OF Con-
gress in her claims for statehood. But first
and foremost she must present clean
record. Under no circumstances will she
be admitted into the union while the most
remote faint of polygamy clings to her
skirts Her people who still fondly cling
to the beasUly tenets of the Mormon faith
as sedulously taught them by BRIGHAM
Young aud HEBER KIMBALL, must learn TO
obey the federal laws against polygamy
more in spirit and less in letter The leaven
of Gentle progress, to be sure IS working
wonderfully, but much time must neces-
sarily elapse before Utah is regenerated
and disenthralled. When not single yes
tige of fealty to polygamy remains, Utah
may expect statehood recognition, and not
before"
1t is awfuliy gratifying to know that a
territory which contains quarter OF mil
| lion people-more than any of the recently
admitted states excepting South Dakota
sis rapidly arriving at the point when IN the
matter Of population she will be entitled to
consideration at the hands of Congress IN
her claims for statehood" But this in
formation is not much more refreshing
than the reminder that we must present
'clean record" that mo faint of polyg-
amy must cling to our skirts" etc. The
fact that it would be somewhat difficult to
rake up some of the ''taint" referred TO
matters not; this is one of the stock argu-
to be used when
there is nothing new comes forth OF
the laboring of the quill-driVer's brain
And then the little reference to ''beastly
tenets" sounds so much like the silurian
or the tertiary period-the same age per
! haps, which gave to US 1.-The twin relic OF
barbarism" aud other choice yet wrlnkled
chestnuts that it hits and passes off with
out making the slightest confusion or
abrasion.
But why does it say that we are observ-
ing the laws too much in letter! There
can be no laws of public nature without
letters, and to insist that we are observing
these altogether too much seems strangely
at variance with what the rural opinion
moulder is evidently trying to say. Be
sides, it is very disloyal. "Obey the laws
against polygamy less in letter." indeed
You dare not come to Utah and say that!
There is one refreshing feature in the
article-it contains nothing about the
Mountain Meadows, the endOwments, the
destroying angels and other yellow-covered
| material which has been doing duty since
our parents were children.

THE LAST EXPOSURE.

Something of sensation was caused just
below the Emporium corner yesterday
morning when Il number of ladies in seal
skin sacques were seen to make break for
a large show window and indulge in a
scramble as to who should get first place.
A reporter, seeing an item in embryo,
struck for the spot, where he found the fair
ones were struggling to get good glimpse
of the interior of the blazing iewelry estab-
lishment of H. Young & Co. formerly
Swaners), where the display for the com
ing holidays is just commencing to be
made. We have enough for all, ladies, and
you can not do better than to drop in and
see our jewelry display.

COUNTRY JOURNALISTS ON UTAH.

Utah is unquestionably the best adver-
tised portion of the public domain, not alto
gether as relates to its peculiar but to a
great extent as regards its general fea-
lures. 1t is rarely indeed that we pick up
a newspaper of any kind-Democratic or
Republican, Jew or Gentle. Mohammedan
or Pagan, Christian orinfdel, metropolitan
or provincial. in which this favored land,
its people and its institutions are not men
tioned-one or the other and sometimes all.
The range of the treatment of this all
prevailing subject is as extended and ex-
tensive as the different sources of publica-
t on. Some treat it with that lofty

THE HERALD has shown and is showing
its faith in Salt Lake. 1t bought its own
ground, it built one of the largest and best
arranged and best-equipped newspaper
blocks in the west, and from the first issue
has pulled" for Salt Lake and Utah. Will
somebody please point out where and say
where any of the Liberal organs spent a
dollar for brick and stone, or did anything
to improve the city? THE HERALD shows
its faith in good and substantial works; the
others show theirs in carpet bags.

FOR FUTURE BRIDES.

Winter is the favorite marrying sea-
son.
The shower of rice is a prayer for fruit
fulness.
Dec. 81 is a favorite wedding day in
Scotland.
Never read the marriage service en-
tirely over.
A bride should use no pins in her
wedding clothes.
A bride must wear nothing green
that color is emblematic of evil.
To change the name and not the letter
is change for worse and not for better.
A bride on her return home must be
carried over the threshold by the groom's
relatives.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

The arbitrary support that has been given
the market the last few days was not active
this morning. There were few lots of July
offered and sold Ac below the closing of yes
apparent that the only standing July had was
the UNFOLDING Of it by parties who did not
want it, but who had to take it to prevent de-
moralization and heavy drop. With the ex
ception of such buyers, there was no demand.
only for small lots that happened to be short.
No new wheat to speak of is expected in July,
but the season being exceptionally early, it
may be looked for early in August. The
old crop is poor one in quality. and II the
new one is good the demand for it TO mix
will come at an early date. 1t appears now
that there will be wheat enough Of the old
crop to meet the natural requirements until
September, by which time new may be
worth more than the old. No one buys July
lied support it gets If that should be wholly
Withdrawn, which is even more than posi-
bili,y, the drop might be considerable. The
belief is current at least that July contracts
when due may be filed as easily as May are
now, and as easily as the other threatened
month, December was.
July sold at S74c at the start and later
dropped to SIC, about o'clock, with rather
small transactions. There was considerable
for sale with few buyers until prices reached
75c. September was in smaller request than
yesterday, with but little demand for it. New
York touched the lowest figure yet reached
on the crop, and at the decline there was
very little demand reported for export All
other markets were also weak and dragging.
No. 2 northern for July was offered without
bidders. e. 60
There was some looking at samples by mill
ers from Faribault, La Crosse. Winona and
PEORIA but they were not loading themselves
up with much wheat, and the support given
the market by local buyers was not very
strong Sellers were asking yesterday s prices
for their stuff, but later in the day were often
glad to move grain at concessions. Buyers
spent too much time in examining the
samples. and the number of bargains secured
was not large. The weakness in futures bad
bad effect on the cash wheat market. AL
grades seemed to drag, and prices averaged
q big fraction below yesterday. Receipts
were l24 cars and 81 were shipped. Duluth
