IA time since the days of shack

of the community and the grizzly
veterans of the G. A. r. came in

A Chicago paper recently published
a portrait OF whom 1t styled the most

ON SUNDAY LAWS.

The plea of the Deseret News for a
Sunday closing law in Utah is an
arrant piece Of hypocrisy.
The Mormon church controlled the
Territorial Legislature from the begin
ming of Territorial government until
Statehood. The Mormon church has
been the largest influence in State Leg
islatures from January, 1896, until to-
day. During all the time of complete
ascendancy by the church there was
no particular worry about Sunday
closing law. The church owned Saltair
resort, and that was the chief Sunday
refuge for people who wanted enter
tainment-with the trimmings. Theat-
rical performance, open bar, late hours,
all were factors IN the profitable opera
ton Of the place; and the church would
have issued promptly an edict forbid
ding sumptuary legislation if anyone
had dared to suggest-during the time
of church participation in the profits
of n Sunday saturnalia at Saltair--a
strict Sunday law to be administered
strictly throughout the commonwealth
But now, having passed Saltalr over to
other ownership and not having any
Immediate partnership in any institu~
tion which can yield extraordinary
profits from Sunday operation Except
its wholesale and retail liquor. selling
drug STOREY the church wants to shut
down entertainment upon the Sabbath
day. Salt Lake has grown into the
promise of metropolitan character This
city is the center Of an active region
People come here from all parts of the
world. In minor degree Ogden is sim
ilarly situated. With a cosmopolitan
population, and with genuine demand
for n day of entertainment as well as
n day of rest, there has been great
pressure from the new population for
Sunday thcatricals; and because this
does not happen to suit the book of the
Deseret News, it begins to cry out for
the moralities. That paper abuses the
Legislature unstintedly for not passing
law in accord with the present pur.
pose of the priests, just as it would
have abused unstintedly the Legisla-
ture for proposing any such law while
it might have interfcred with the
profits of the priests. That is the tex
ture of Deseret News morality and the

OPPOSES NEW COURTHOUSE,

fremont Times
A desperate effort is being made by
some OF the office-hoiderS and the people
of Brigham to induce the County Com
missloners to reconstruct the old court
house at Brigham at q. cost OF 10000 or
$25, 900. Now. that may be all right from
the Brigham point of view, but Brigham
is not the whole county, and our com
missioners are elected and supposed TO be
custodians OF the interests OF all the tax
payers. Brigham wants a new court
house TO show off 10 visitors. The old
one Is large enough for the transaction
OF all the business Of the county and VIII
II is enlarged IL will be only for the pur-
pose of making a place for another care

we venture the assertion that almost any
business man in the county could do all
the business of any office with half the
help now employed. OF course. new
courthouse would look nice in Brigham
and would improve the looks of that
town, but there are some other things be-
sides the appearance OF the city to be
taken into consideration. We need good
roads now more than We need new
courthouse. and the money that would
be necessary to reconstruct the court
house would go a long way toward MAX
ing our main roads passabe al all times
OF the year. When the roads are in such
a condition at all seasons that one can
drive TO the county seat without getting
stalled. then We Will not object 10 the
expenditure of money either In repairing
the old courthouse or building a new
one, -'-
