SALT LAKE CITY, May 27.-The con-
trolling interest in The Salt Lake Herald
has passed into Gentle hands. The Her
aid has been the leading exponent of the
Mormon church, and this sale pra ctical-
ly breaks the back of the Church OF
Latter-Day Saints as a factor in Utah
politics, The Herald will be made q
strong Democratic paper, advocating the
admission of Utah into the Union. The
old parties are broken up in this political

The character of these surveys will be
something between that of a reconnois-
sance and preliminary railway survey,
rs practiced in more settled and better
known countries. Distances will be
measured with the odometer and stadia
rod and checked by observations for lati-
tude and longitude. For measurements
of attitudes dependence will be had upon
aneroid barometers, checked by barom-
eters.
Estimates of cost will be made as
closely approximate as the nature of the
SURVEYS will permit. Information will
be collected upon the mineral agricul-
tural and commercial resources of the
countries traversed, and upon all other
subjects of interest in connection with
the proposed railway.
1t Is hoped chat the work allotted to
the several parties can be completed
within year, and, while the entire line
will not have been surveyed unless funds
are forthcoming to provide for the send
ing out of other surveying parties, vet
the main question as to whether the pro
jected railway is practicable will have
been determined, for from present in
formation there is no doubt that, If IA
railroad can be built through Central
America, the isthmns. Colombia and
Ecuador into Peru, ii can be carried on
southwark TO connect with existing sys-
TENS.
Pending the completion of the surveys,
the commission, having no further work
before it, suspended its regular sessions
