sTEPHEN s. HARpING

In July. 1862, Stephen S. Harding, an
Indianian and an able lawyer, arrived in
Salt Lake City, and qualified as governor
He incurred the displeasure OF the people
at the outset by accusing them of disloy-
atty in his first message to the legislature,
and reproving them for practicing polyg-
amy. a petition was drawn up, request
ing the president to remove him. The
governor was also asked to resign. His
reply was couched in very incorporate
language, which aroused fresh indigna-
ton.
In March, 1883, seven leaders of the
Norrisite sect were convicted of murder
in the second degree, they and their fol-
lowers having resisted the service of writs
and precipitated a conflict in which sew
eral men were killed. Governor Harding
pardoned these seven men, and the grand
Jury censured him in the following
language:
Therefore we present his excellency,
Stephen s. Harding. governor Of Utah, as we
would an unsafe bridge over dangerous
stresm-jeopardizing the lives OF all who pass
over it-or as We would pestiferous cess pool
in our district, breeding disease and death.i'
In June, 1868, this most unpopular
official was appointed United States con-
sui at Valparaiso, and his departure was
not deeply mourned.

history, he seems to have obeyed instruc-
tions. He resigned the Office in 1859.

ALFRED CUMMINGS.

Utah's second governor, was Alfred
Cummings, who wac appointed to sue
coed Brigham Young in July, 1857. but
who did not reach Salt Lake city until the
following year. At the time of his ap-
pointment Cummings was superintendent
of Indian affairs on the upper Missouri,
and had made good record in his deal
ings with the tribes.
Governor Cummings remained with
Johnson army in Wyoming until April
1858, under the belief that it would be IN
safe Cor him to come to Salt Lake city. A
body Of Mormon troops was finally sent
out to accompany him to this city, and
upon his arrival he was most cordially
received and his authority as governor
Immediately recognized.
In June, 1858, Johnston's army en-
tered this valley, but found deserted
city, the residents having aban doned their
homes and gone TO Provo. In July all
returned and the so-called "war' was
over. having cost the government SIS, :
00O, 600.
In 1859 Governor Cumming became in
volved in an alteration with General
Johnston concerning the necessity for
maintaining troops at Provo to guard
prisoners under arrest for civil offenses
The federal judges supported Johnston
The bitterness thus engendered between
the governor and the other federal Off
Gals was intensified by the fat refusal of
Cumming to countenance plot to arrest
Brigham Young on a trumpet up charge.
Although the action OF the governor in
his conflict with the judges and military
authorities was endorsed at Washington
he became unpopular with the cabinet.
His resignation was not demanded, but
he left Utah in May, 1861, two months
before his term of Office expired.

GEORGE L. WOODS.

George [. Woods, Missourian who, as
judge and politician in Idaho and Oregon,
had accumulated and lost quite fortune,
succeeded Vaughn and took the oath OF
Office Morch 10, 1871. He was a
pronounced anti-Mormon and, in
conjunction with James B. McKean, who
was appointed about the same time,
waged an anti Mormon crusade. A seri-
Gus clash between Governor Woods and
the territorial militia occurred on the
fourth of July, 1871. The governor for
babe the militia TO assemble for the pur-
pose OF participating in the celebration,
and, when his orders were disobeyed /,
called out the federal troops, when the
militia dispersed.
Bitterness, contentious and strife
marked Governor Woods entire admins
tration, which was terminated in 1874 by
his retirement.

"a> Ll59% to admit the state of
Brigham Young Deseret into t b e
Union, but in September, 1850, passed
an act organizing the territory OF Utah,
and Brigham Young was appointed gov
ernor and Notwithstanding affairs.
He discharged the duties of the latter Office
with such wisdom and ability that his
intercourse with the tribes was generally
OF a peaceful character.
The only Indian disturbance worthy of
note during Governor Young's admins
tratlon occurred in 1853, when Chief
Walker, a gifted. well-educated and in
fuential leader OF the Utahs, made war
against the settlers, by which the latter
suffered considerable loss in lives and
property.
The most noteworthy event that marked
the period OF Governor Young's rule was
the outbreak of what is known in history
as the tfMormon war; Brigham Young
had been reappointed governor in 1854 by
President Pierce. In filing the judge
ships and other offices the federal admin
istration made most unfortunate selec-
tions. The territory was infested by a
clique OF political adventurers who prac-
ticed every form of roguery and dissipa-
ton.
Through the intrigues and misrepresen-
tations OF these INSCRIPTIONS officials the
government was led to believe that it was
impossible to enforce federal authority by
civil process in this territory, and General
Albert Sidney Johnston was sent out in
1857 with an army of about 5000 men.
They wintered at Camp Scott on Ham 8
Fork, Wy. A detachment of the troops
came as far as Echo canyon that fall.
Governor Young issued a proclamation
forbidding them entrance into Utah, and
preparations for resistance were made by
the people.
During this last year of his administra-
ton $3.50 Governor Young established
the Brigham Young express, a pony SER
vice, between Salt Lake city and the Mis-
souri, river. II was about the close OF
Governor Young's term that the Noun
tain Meadow massacre occurred.

Nauyoo legion. This was the only note
worthy event of Governor Shaffer's adj
ministration. He died in October, 1870.
VERNON H. VAUGHN.
Vernon Il. Vaughn, Shaffer' secretary,
came next. His administration was ex-
ceedlngly brief and nothing worthy Of
record occurred during the few months of
his incumbency.
