mcnt of this city, after an examina-
tion in which it was shown that he was
not in the city at the time his alleged
offense was committed here, and that
it was physically impossible for him to
have been guilty as charged, was held
for trial. Thercupou there was loud
and persistent outc-y from the opposl'
ton papers that he should resign or be
suspended from Office,
The State Land Board of Utah was
charged with dereliction of duty, faith
lessness in the performance of functions
and lawless if not corrupt and criminal
dealings, in the performance of its
work. Following tAat charge. came a
full and open hearing, by high trl-
bunaI designated by tho Senate of the
State. This tribunal found the Board
guilty as charged, pronounced sentence,
and recommended the enactment of
criminal law to reach the offenses cs-
tablishod. The secretary Of the Board
at once resigned, But do we hear any
demand for the resignation of the mem
bcrs of the Board1 On the contrary,
do we not hear demand that they
shall be rewarded for their devotion TO
''the machine" by reappointment to
office, in spite Of their delinqucncies
and offenses. Found guilty, they are
not to be punished, but rewarded.
Chief Sheets has not been found
guilty. The members Of the Land
Board have been. If Sheets should get
out of Office, why should they remain
in? Their case is worse than his, in
their respective standing. Why, then,
do not the opposition press demand that
the members of ths Land Board retire
from office? Why is that that which is

THE STATES DEFICIT.

In spite of repeated warnings, the
Legislature has failed to take into due
account the financial condition of the
State. The Governor pointed out that
there was a deficit in the estimated APP.
propriations needed, compared with the
receipts, of nearly three quarters of .
million dollars. The Tribune has
pointed out from time to time that the
Legislature ought TO take some steps In
this matter by way of providing for
the eXigency, other than to wait until
the last hours Of the session and then
cut and slash in a reckless endcavor TO
make both ends meet
And yet nothing was done; the cut
and-slash process is in progress No
fair consideration can he given at this
time TO the actual needs of the State
institutions, or the comparative injury
that may be done to one or another by
a process of cutting that may cripple.
There has been no attempt, so far as
any public indication goes, Of any real
study into the Institutions, TO see which
is IN urgent need and which can wait
few years Without material harm We
will use the State Industrial School at
Ogden as an example. It is being

had been fitted up especially for it,
and then neglected. 1t is now trying
to get some cottages put up on a bit
of land which it can utilize if it can
get aid from the State for start. But
there appears to be no proper rcaliza-
tlon of the urgency of the need there,
nor of the advantage TO the State Of
providing for it fairly and promptly,
This, of course is no special plea for
that institution, 1t is merely a plain
recital of facts. 1t is used primarily
as an Illustration of the fact that the
matter under discussion, the compara-
tive needs of State institutions and the
financial condition of the treasury,
have not received and are not receiv-
ing the study and careful attention
that they require.
1t is no reply TO say that tax is
proposed on corporations; for, such a
tax would be utterly inadequate to
meet the great deficit stated by the
Governor; and then, it would add TO
the movement already i'll progress that
takes corporations out of this State To
incorporate elsewhere; so that present
~ there may he no corporations left
here TO tax. The true remedy for the
financial pinch is TO thoroughly over
haul the State s affairs, put lust econ
omies into effect, and so keep the ex-
penditures within the limits of the in
come. 1t is now too late To do tins
effectively and completely; but much
may yet be possible, with industry and
good will, and we commend this sub
Ject to the earnest and energetic at

The Rcorganizcd church has now
better opportunity than ever before to
attack succession in the Utah Mormon
church: for Joseph +. Smith, the pres
ent head, has practically admitted that
the rule of Brigham and his successors
was one Of usurpatiou. They have still
added opportunity from the fact that
by Joseph +. s own theory. he himself
is in an additional sense an usurpcr.
Also. it is now clear why the young
SmithIets are put on guard at various
points to defend the title. One Ger
aid j. S. Abels, of Ogden, a former
missionary of the Utah church to Hol-
land, a man who has been twice trusted
by his church in that important held,
has renowned the Utah Mormon church
on the ground that, as admitted by
Joseph T., the church is usurper OF
succession to the presidency and pro
phetship. This was one of the moment
Gus events which created the present
crucial issue.
1t would be sntire worthy of the
whole scheme if Joseph f., after over
throwing the Brighamite usurpatlon IN
order to defend himself against the
charges of the ReorgaDized church and
TO vindicate his own family pride and
vanity, should make such n strong case
that his brother John would find, estab-
lished for him. a clear title TO the

Scandinavian elder Of the church,
She announced that she was no long

her friends this servant girl declared
that she believed poIygamy 10 be right.
that some of the apostles had "done

STOCK EXCHANGE TO FOLD
SESSION ON GOOD FRIDAY

NEW YORK, March 2S.-After a pro-
lOnged consideration of the pstition
signed by most Of the members Of the
New York Stock Exchange, requesting
that the exchange be closed tomorrow,
Good Friday, and Saturday, the govern
ing board announced that il had decided
10 grant the request for a holiday on
saturday, but that the exchange viii
be open for business tomorrow
In view OF the fact that the London
stock Exchange viii be closed on both
days, as well as on Easter Monday,
many Of the members of the local ex-
change were DESTROYS Of having the
committee authorize two holidays.
Some of the sUpeTstitious brokers re-
called TO mind the fact that the ex-
change had failed to close on Good Fri
day Of last year, although such had
been the custom for ten years pre-
vious, and, with but one exception, last
summer, the stock market has been
tending downward ever since. It is
now estimated that the aggregate loss
in stock and bond values since last
Good Friday amounts to s., 00O,0O0.0OO
