When the Chiffon case was continued on the
following morning, observant Junior
marked 10 his neghbor: do you see Grngle's
face? Something is coming out in the cross
examination to-day"
For some time nothing occurred to justify this
remark. Mr.. Gringle resumed his cxami-
nation Of the gold digger" at the point where
ne had left of the day before. and pursued
monotonous course OF Inquiries. which. except
far they substantiated his veracity in

were few and his income exceedingly limited.
Mr.. Gringle occupied good deal Of his leisure

responsible position the staff Of The De

enabled to dispose of his literary wares with

THE UTAH COMPANY.

Some of our eastern contemporo-
ries are becoming much exercised over
the corporation known as the Utah
Company. AS an indication of this
feeling we find the following para
graph in several exchanges:
The greatest wealth either of the
Mormon church or of the individuals
at its head, has been again demon
strated by the recent investment of
ten million dollars by the first presi-
dency" in a new corporation called the
Utah Company. This new company is
to operate coal mines, railroad, a
Bathing beach and pleasure resort at
the Great Salt Lake and build, equip
and operate telegraph lines. This is
purely church scheme in which Cen
tiles have no part, and is, like the
Zion Cooperative company, to be man
aged to add to the wealth of the
church.
Exaggerated ideas about the great
wealth of the Mormon church have
been very common and have excited
great concern, while the immeasurarbly
greater riches and possessions of the
Catholic, Episcopal and other ecclesi-
astical organizations seem to attract
no particular attention. Be that as it
may, we think our contemporaries are
unduly excited over this matter.
We have no authority to speak for
the church dignitaries, but the Utah
Company is composed of gentlemen
many of whom hold high positions in
the Mormon church, while others of
the company do not. But it is not
purely church scheme as stated.
On the contrary it is not a church
scheme at all. The incorporators are
not members of the company in any
other way than as citizens, engaged in
an endeayor to promote the material
welfare Of the community They ex-
pect, if sufficient capital is obtained
on the valuable properties which the
company control, to start many indus
tries which will provide labor for
workpeople, and develop the resources
Of this territory, which are great and
varied.
Even if this task We're undertaken
by churchmen for the benefit of their
fellow church members, we fail to see
wherein that should provoke unfavor-
able criticism or awaken any alarm. 1t
is a mistake to suppose the non-Mor-
mons here are hostile to or excluded
from this organization. We believe the
general sentiment is Favorable to the
enterprise, and all the regret that is
felt here concerning it is, that gufi-
cient available cash capital is not at
immediate command to start the in
dustries which Utah needs at this mo-
ment.
Our friends in the east are unneces-
sarily aroused over a scheme which all
classes of people in Utah would like to
see made successful. And if the tenn
poral and material advancement of
mankind received more attention from
religiously influential persons as well
as their spiritual welfare, it is possi-
BILE that religion might have greater
