A VALUABLE PRECEDENT.

The people of this country have an
object lesson fresh from England in
the celerity Of judicial procedure. One
Edward L. Mylius, London agent and
distributor of a Paris paper, printed
a story that the present King George
of Great Britain, while his elder broth
er Clarence was heir apparent. visited
Malta and there fell in love with and
married morganatically the eldest
daughter of Admiral Seymour Such
marriage would be legal but the issue
from IT would not be in the line Of sue
cession. Later, the elder brother, Clar-
ence, died. and George became the heir
apparent, succeeding TO the throne on
the death of his father. King Edward
In the meantime, Prince George had
married Princess Mary of Teck, who
was first afiianced TO his elder brother
Clarence. 1t is thus evident that the
children of King George by his known
wife would have been seriously affected
If Il morganatic marriage had been
entered into previously, as charged, es-
pecially If issue had come of it; for
it is probable that such marriage, if
entered into al all, would have been
81 legal marriage. though the issue Of il
would be barred from inheritinp the
throne.
1t is but three days since the case
was brought before the court, and now
it is completed. the offender is convict
ed, sentenced for seditious libel, and
Chief Justice Alverstone, who had the
case, deplores that the punishment pro.
vided by law is inadequate TO the of
Tense
But what is chiefly TO be noted in
America is the swiftness with which the
matter was disposed Of II is a case
evidently held by all concerned to be
of the very highest importance; it in
wolves very serious questions, on the
one hand of social order and personal
grievance, and on the other of the lib
erty of the press and of individual free
speech and publication. A case of that
kind in this country would be pretty
certain to be extended over weeks, if
not months. And yet, il was disposed
of IN three days in England. II is en-
couraging to note that the best legal
thought Of this country is being turned
toward the apparent break down OF ia,
dicial procedure by reason of fochui.

RAILROAD MEN MEET HERE.

Salt Lake City is fairly coming into
it's own rs Il convention city. Frequent
proofs OF this have been seen recently,
and now to those proofs is added the
capture Of the convention of the Trans.
continental Railway Passenger Associa-
ton. which is to be held next June in
this city The news of this pleasant
fact was received in this city on We'd
nesday, and it caused smiles of congrat-
ulation all around
The summer weather Of Salt Lake
City cannot be excelled anywhere. The
atmosphere is dry and comfortable. n
refreshing contrast to the swetcring
dampness and torrid heat of the Eastern
coast The great bulk of the members
Of the passenger association will doubt
less be from the East; and they will
note an invigorating change in their
personal comfort when they get 10 the
mountains. and this change will be
pleasantly continued while they are in
Salt Lake. Besides, we have. apart
from the attractions of the city itself,
the lake with its unapproached bathing
facilities, and the mountain canyons
with their gorgeous scenery and pleas
ant coolness In fact. the summer at
fractions for visitors in Salt Lake arc
superior to those that any other place
can offer.
1t is decidedly feather in the cap
of Salt Lake City to capture the meet
ing of this passenger association Every
time that any of these associations or
conventions is held in this city. the
fame of Salt Lake rs Il pleasant place
to be in spreads wider and wider, and
less and less trouble it is to get other
conventions and associations to come to
us. And that is exactly as it ought to
be, for the city is unrivalcd and it is
rood TO see that the whole country is
waking up to that fact.

THE NEW COAL SUIT.

The procedure begun to be put before
the Interstate Commerce Commission
by the Consolidated Fuel Company and
derstood TO be. in part at least, an
equitable contention, in order to ad-
Just rates. SO as to allow the su,tors,
and other Independent coal companies
in Utah. in case the suitors win, TO
have rates adjusted, so that coal can
be shipped into Idaho and Nevada
from Utah mines. on the same basis as
independent coal companies in Wyo-
ming are allowed to ship into the other
States named. The conflict of rates
between the railroads has caused ccr-
tain friction that it is desirable to al.
lay, and establish routes of transporta,
tion and in the same connection. to so
adjust matters on an equitable basis,
that the Utah independent coal pro
duccrs will be put on the same basis as
the like producers in Wyoming.
The details Of the contention Will be
thrashed out duly before the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and it is not
either desirable or worth while to enter
into public examination of them prior
to the Judgment which the Interstate
Commerce Commission is expected to
deliver in the case. The chief thing
that will appeal to the Utah public in
respect to the matter is the ncighborly
desire that Utah independent coal pro,
ducers may find some way TO be put in
as advantageous position with respect
to the shipping of their coal to Idaho
and Nevada as competing companies
IN Wyoming enjoy.
In all this commotion about rates,
about coal, and about the different
interests involved, complicated and in
terwovcn as they arc. doubtless sat
isfactory cxtrication from the coufu
sion that exists will be evoked by the
Interstate Commerce Commission. And
that the Judgment of this body may be
cquitably and commercially favorable
to the chief interests involved not neg
locting the interests Of Utah, must he

pectation is that a further loan will be
negotiated for the same purpose when
this money is exhausted in the railroad
building arranged for. The scaling down
Of $112,000,000 Indebtedness to $4,000,
600 looks like a pretty stiff discount
But as the holders Of the bonds repre-
senting the $ll2,00O,000 have very
lively prospect of getting nothing at
ali on their original holdings, and as
the evidences Of that Indebtedness prob
ably cost little or nothing. it is likely
enough that the holders of those Hon.
duran obligations arc getting pretty
good value when they get $l,000000 for
the nominal SIP, 100000.

This, it appears, was done as usual
on the Manti reserve. And vet, on the
pleading of interested parties, the
scientific part of the programme is
waived, and the grazing is to go on
as heretofore. whether it Injuries the
ranges or not. SO that the forestry
grazing is not an economic or scientific
question any more, but only ono of poll
