| CHICAGO, Jan. II, 1890. Especial
| Correspondence Of the DEsERET
News. IA few moments ago, while
giancing over the pages Of TuI-
idge's ''History Of Salt Lake CITY. ,,
my eye rested on a sketch of the
history Of the Salt Lake 7iEtme
This sketch suggested a train OF
thought which for the moment CON-
pletely took possession Of my whole
soul. l note that after chtquered
existence ofsome fourteen years the
Iri6sHe at last fell into the hands OF
Ar. Patrick H. Lannau, under
whom ii became n success both
financially and politically. The
historian does not say whether this
success is attributed to superior bust.
ness talents on the part of Mr.. Ian.
nan, or to n change in the on.
vironments Of the Tribune.
One OF the charges most frequent
y preferred against Irishmen Is
that they are absolutely unified for
any KIM OF business EXCEPT that Of
sal0on-keeping or Of manipuIatin0
ward politics. Here is a most en'
phatic contradiction TO this cbarge.
MI Lannan, a pure tyne OF the
aboriginal freshman, hns made n
success of a journalistic enternrise In
which Englishmen, Scotchu,er md
AmeLlcans JAILED. 1t may be urged
That the Gentle journalism Of Utah |
lsoeneath the standard Of Legitimate
newspaper morality, and that Is WHY
the superior intellects Of TuIIidoe
anu sawyer failed in what Lannsn
inane a success. IL that is 80 n 4
hlckory conscience, and a petrified |
soul has more to 10 with iournaJistic
success than an educated mind n
comprehensive intellect, and an ex-
allied morality. -.
But 1t is not with this snaci,I
province OF journalism that / wjsk !
10 zeal. From Mr.. Lannan the
mind naturally turns to Mr.. Aior-
rison, OF Arizona. This latter ppn.
tieman, II appears, Is also n success

critics say he is adapted-poIitics
