Neither is the News" able 20 turn

purpose Of muddling the public mind
The Church for which the Deseret
News speaks on Church questions Is
charged with having nominated and
elected the Congressman from Utah.
The charge is false, but when the
News" offers proof Of It's untruth, the
attempt is made to shut OF This paper

cal, and therefore Is a party matter
When the News" assents to that
proposition. so far as It relates to the
nomination and election Of the Repre-
sentative then a denial il entered and
We are told It was a Church nomina-
ton aud Church election.
In any case the Deserel News Is held

PULPIT AND PRESS IDEAS.

two columns solid, TO reports Of the

this was almost entirely lost sight Of In

nounce "Mormonlsm."
The authority for an the assaults on
the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter
day Saints. was the literature which
has been scattered through the country
containing garbled extracts from dis
courses and alleged remarks OF Nor

tured by the distributors OF those
pamphlets. The objections raised by
the Detroit preachers have all been
met and answered, SO there Is no need
TO take them up IN detail, and the ar

Is 50 absurd that It would seem that
even an anti Mormon preacher
would see is utter irreleyance to the

AN IMPORTANT MATTER.

It will be remembered by many OF

amounting to at least 1900 miles, the
court being held either in st. Louis or
ST. Paul. This amounts almost to an
outage on counsel and their clients.
The kind Of cases likely to be carried
to the circuit court from this part OF
the country Is peculiar TO the inter-
mountain region Therefore judges
who are not only versed In the law
that relates to general affairs but
also familiar with the circumstances
and conditions existing here. should
hear and decide the causes that spring
within those surroundings. Mining
and irrigation questions are among the
most prominent subjects Of litigation,
and a knowledge OF the special condi-
lions existing In relation TO them in the
West Is absolutely necessary TO the adj
ADMINISTRATION OF justice.

circuit. It should be provided that every
alternate term Of the Court OF Appeals
eaould be held in Salt Lake city. and
In view Of the large amount OF business
that will surely come before the court,
II Is necessary that not less than three
circuit judges shall constitute that
court.
We are Of the opinion that con-
certed effort should be made, not only
by the bar but by leading firms and
citizens OF these parts. TO bring this
important matter before the attention
OF the United States Senate, at least
