made would be fined and sent to prison.
Anywhere else than in Utah the United
States Marshal would be removed and
the Attorney General would be i'm
penched. Other efforts have been made
in Ogden to subvert the due course OF
justice and these malignant endeavors
have gone far over the boundary Of
proper freedom and have grossly in
suited the District Court. Out Of the
several instances OF hagrant contempt
ono may select the proceedings Of two
publications in Ogden which sought TO
cajolo and terrorize tho jury in the
case against Councilman Craig for talk
ing illegal fees. These papers were
published by person who had adj
vised and aided tho offense OF Council
man Craig, and their articles were so
palpably and successfully directed to
the jury in tho Craig case, to induce
that jury TO bring in Il verdict con-
trary to the plain evidence, that
member of the bar felt impelled TO call
their contempt to the attention of the
court,
And even more hagrant was n re
cent case reported in this paper of
Joseph +. Smith, who, as a religious
instructor, counseled juries from the
pulpit what kind OF verdicts to find
i'll certain suits. In the very time OF
his official proclamation, which is rs
binding upon his adherents as If it
were the law Of God, there was
Federal court jury panel and Dis
trict Court panel, and some men who
had served or were then serving were
sitting under his instruction Prob
ably the offenso Of Smith was not
sufficiently concrete to justify judicial
notice by Judge Marshall of the Fed
eral court or any one OF tho District
court Judges. But it was so effective
in its results that reputable attor-
ney Of Salt Lake City made affidavit
to one of the courts in demand for a
new trial for his client on the ground
that tho instruction Of Smith had
reached the jury, had been effective,
and had cost the rights of his client.
1T is time that this contempt OF
court should cease. The safety of our
community life is in the judiciary.
Whenever that is assailed the rights
OF all are endangered 1t is incum-
bent upon the courts to protect them
selves from indignity, and 1t should be
an enforced requirement upon all Off
cials, all politicians, all prophets, seers
and revelators, as well as the common
people of the community, to treat the
courts with the respect which they de-
SerNo.

SOME GLARING INSTANCES.

According to the Prico (Utah) Adj
vocate, Robert Forester, geologist for
the Utah Fuel company, says that the
cases against his company will not
come up, in the Federal court until
about the first of the year, and when
they do "they will be thrown out Of
court on demurrer" There is a Fed
eral Judge in Utah named John Mar
shall, who is supposed to decide ques-
tions Of this kind upon due hearing
and in harmony with the law which
governs. 1t is not necessary for The
Tribune to pay compliment to Judge
Marshall; for his integrity and his
ability as q judge are known and ap-
preciated throughout the Nation. But
1T may be fair for public journal
to call attention to the palpable con-
tempt which is committed by Mr.. For
rester in his Jealous regard for the
interests of his own company. BY
what right does this gentleman, speak
ing for defendant in court, declare
that the cases will be thrown out on
demurrer2 The very assumption is an
insult to the Department of Justice
at Washington, is reflection upon
the good faith Of the representatives
OF the Government hero for prosecut-
ing the case, and IS a contempt of the
court over which presides one Of the
most distinguished and immaculate
jurists IN this part OF the country.
Contempt of court is becoming all
too frequent in this State. One may
pass by the general contempt which
is shown in the conduct Of the most
powerful men in the State, who openly
boast that they defy the law and the
courts, But it is well to call atten.
| ton TO the specific instances in which
contempt OF court is perpetrated by
/ individuals who seek TO subvert the
| righteous course of justice in order to
accomplish some partisan OF personal
| benefit for themselves.
| Quite as fragrant as the casa OF
Robert Forester Is that Of the United
States Marshal and the Attorney Gen
eral of Utah, who visited the district
] Judge at Ogden and sought to coerce
his judicial action in behalf Of adher
ents of their party. Anywhere else
| than in Utah these mon would be ar
raigned before the court and upon tho
showing which they themselves had

That the Mormon church is carrying

promises Of wealth and luxury, but for
the sole purpose of providing sufficient
Mormon wives to accomplish a speedy
and sufficient increase of the sect.
Supplied with money and coached
to tell a plausible story, these recruits
for polygamy defy ell efforts of the
immigration officials to bar their en-
trance, and, little realizing the future
before them, are hurried TO Utah TO
pass under the iron rule OF church
that controls every act Of its subjects.
