Hon. D. O. Rideout on
Consolidation

Editor Tribune:-I agree with Mr-
John u. Carlisle that in considering the
question of consolidation the problem
number should be kept in mind. The
facts arc our State. In population about
the size of Detroit City, cannot AFFORD
two universities. At the last Legisla-
ture the two institutions asked for about
two-fftha OF the revenue OF the state,
and TO provide for the Agricultural coll
lego as tho administration desires IT TO
be Co university, the college did not ask
too much. and certainly the University
with it's three big State schools did not
ask for too much. Both requests were
cut down. and even then the State went
beyond it's income. According TO the
Constitution when tho assessed valuation
OF the property of the State reaches two
hundred million dollars tho revenue for
tho schools and other State matters VIII
be Ave mills on tho dollar instead OF
eight mills as ut present, SO that there
will then be smaller amount for
school and State purposes than. now
BY consolidation and proper adjust
mept of tho higher education, more
money can be used for agricultural sub
jects than has been used heretofore, and
both the Agricultural college and all the
the head university made moro efficient,
and at tho same time much money be
saved The money saved could be used
to assist the public schools, opening a
way for high schools TO be established
throughout the State. giving at least
from ten to fifteen times the number OF
young men and young women an oppor-
tunity TO got a high school education
than can now get such education by sep
aration, and thus fully carry out the
principle OF the greatest good 10 tho
greatest number. BY combination it
would be possible for high school educa-
tlon to be obtained at home. and efficient
college education IN all lines could DO OBJ
tanned within ones own State equal to
White OF Cornell university says:
Scatter your high schools throughout
tho State. but concentrate your higher
education In ono place"
According to existing facts instead Of
tho Agricultural college being in any way
detrimentally affected by combination as
indicated by Mr.. Carllsle's letter, It
would be greatly benefited and brought
within more easy access TO the very
large majority of the people of this
State. The existing facts are that with
one or two exceptions, IL there Is any ex-
ception at all. the best agricultural col
leges are connected with universities; as
for instance, agricultural colleges of New
York. Wisconsin. Illinois. Minnesota,
Ohio, Missouri, Nebraska, California, Me-
vada, Wyoming. Idaho and others.

higher education, aud for giving to all
the young men and women Of the State,
irrespective OF locality, the best higher
educational facilities the money available
for such facilities can afford. All higher
educational institutions Of Utah should
be consolidated and centrally located, for
the best good OF the largest number

THE UPRIGHT LIFE.

Tho best reply to yiliacation, slsnder and
abuse Is an upright life. No othor oontradic-
tion Of malicious accusations il as effective.
Most facts can DO concealed and {alsohoods
made to tako their place, temporarily. Logic
can DO buried in sophisrns by masters OF tho
black nrt Of deception, ProteBtstions and ct,
fanstioism, but q pure lIfo devoted TO the
unselfsh service Of God and man forms a
rock against which all the waves Of opposi.
tion roll In vain.
> 1t is tho firm conviction of tho truth Of
these propositions that has determined tho
policy of the News" not to tako any notice
Of tho slandsrous sttacka upon tho church,
and It's members. except in very rare cases
Descrot Evening News Editorial.
Without disputing with the News as
to whether the attacks are slanderous
OF not, and merely speaking Of the at
tacks as such, let US ask the official
organ of tho Mormon church, the Des-
eret News, whether the reasons quoted
are the real ones for the declination Of
the News to reply, or whether tho real
reasons arc found in the inability OF
the News to mako answer. The noble
sentiments expressed In tho opening of
the News editorial are common to all
right thinking people. They arc not
the heritage or the possession or the
origination of the Deseret News; they
have been cited, and in better Ian
guage, on many occasions by many poo
ple-sometimes good people and some
times bad people.
If these really were tho reasons
which animate tho News to maintain
it's discreet silence why break that ST.
lence at all, even in "rare cases"7
Why does the News violate it's sacred
sentimentalities, why does 1t descend
from Its exalted position day after day
and reply to technical errors made by
non-Mormon writers who are not suf-
ficiently well acquainted with the Nor
mon question to state the proposition
with exactitude7
Hero arc some Of the real reasons
why the News does not answer tho
general and intelligent attack; and
once moro The Tribune challen ges the
organ Of tho Mormon church to leave
it's platitudinous recital Of high motives
which do not actuate the News and
como down TO earth and meet plainly
these accusations which are not SLAM
derous, but are tho everlasting and yet
disgraceful truth: The leaders of the
Mormon church are not following an
upright life, as men understand that
expression. By their own testimony
(however good they may be in other
respects) they are violating a revela.
ton which they claim came from God.
BY their own confession, deAantly
made, they arc fagrantly breaking the
laws which they eagerly covenantod to
uphold.
Is it an upright life for the presl-
dent Of tho Mormon church to live with
FIVE wlvesa Answer, Mr.. Deseret News.
Let this be one Of the "rare cases"
in which you make reply. Is it q part
Of "pure life devoted to the unset
fish service OF God and man. for the
leader Of the Mormon church to bring
twelve children into the world born Of
his polygalnous living after he cove

That Just at the time whom 1t Is most
needed one often finds the key OF

and has to take valuable time to polish
1t up again.
That David was anticipating Just n few
centuries when he said In his ha5ts "all
men are liars"
That when the cream of some peoples
thought is SKINNED off there Is mighty
little left and still less taken away.
That polite society is never seen any
more on the streets or In the cars.
That women everywhere in public In
dulge IN an unseemly scramble for plaoa.
That men puff their offensive tobacco
smoke IN your face from the beer garden
to the parlor.
That tobacco spit and the fumes Of ths
whiskey breath challenge your approach
at every corner.
That revolution In manners and
morals is one Of the great needs OF Salt
Lake City,
That Sabbath desecratiou is not con-
fined alone to Gentues.
That G. widower Peurose Is tust now
in "ft" OF moral reform for others
while he still divides time with two
women.
That the Kernel of tho "Asrd" has
turned over the command to one of his
subordinates while he "vacates" over

That the absence of Just one man from
Salt Lake City has deprived Ave homes of
a head. nve women Of a husbands ca
resses and forty-three kids Of a fathers
