We publish today a letter from a reliable resident of Brigham City, in reference to aume scurrilous comtnunb-a-tlonfrom that place which have appeared in our morning contemporaries. We iwid no attention to them at the time except to read them, believing that tbs public, with tha exception ot a few uninformed persons, would readily perceive their falsity and absurdity, lint since the matter la now brougnl forward we will make a few comments. That there haa been some trouble with a few Individuals in Brigham City over a matter tiff small moment except to them will not very probably be disputed.

The purpose and animus of the ronrocter of those stories are evident mum their face. There is a proper way to bring chargee against members of the church and proper tribunals to hear and judge them, no matter what position the accused may hold in the church. in the management of a stake or ward it ia .necessary that there should be harmony between Its officer. Change hare to be made, as circumstances require, 'In the personnel of the different organisations. But they do not affect the standing of the Individuals nor the priesthood they hold. If an elder is spisdnled to take charge of sumo auxiliary organization, that Is a temporary position, and when he ia released or resigns, he Is still an elder, with all, the authority that his office in the priesthood embraces and implies. So in regard to any iweltlon of presidency, it la not necessarily n perms-Leappointment, but the priesthood abides and continues, no matter whether its possessor preside for n period or not and it ia not affected by hia continuance fr hia removal aa a presiding officer.

We answer yes; that woman that right during leap year as well as Ja every other year. We are also asked to give the law on this matter, or rather the authority which gianta woman special privilegee ia leap years. Of course there Is no law on the subject. Leap year was establishwho decreed ed by Julius Caesar, 3bS 4 day was a year, and in order tu avoid confusion he directed that each year should have 383 days, excepting each fourth year which should have 3to ciaya; and because erery fourth year lea i) over one day it was called leap year. Early In the eighteenth century In England a nobly lady proposed marriage to a lord, rod was accepted. Borne of the enemies of the lady spread the rumor that it was unwomanly for a woman to proioee marriage. So strong was gossip that the court divided on the question, and the fair lady waa humiliated and slighted so much that she appealed to the king to do her 'Justice. Ho called before him all the parties Interested; both sides were represented by the ablest spokesmen of ths court. The king, alter hearing the arguments. was much perplexed and troubled. To decide either way meant a division of the court attendants, nnu wnue thus meditating, the court Jester attracted the king's attention and the latter shouted, "tool, what say you about, this sorest of problems?" k The court Jester replied, both are right, and both are wrong, indeed it were a grievous wrong tor fair maiden to offer herself to every one until accepted, aa this would take from her that modesty for which we love her most. But where man is too bashful to propose, it Is provideu that In leap year only shall woman offer her love." This suited the king so well that he decreed that It was not unwomanly for a woman to propose every fourth, or leap year. Of course this was heraldeu throughout tbs antlre kingdom and has become a custom. IB America wa have only heard admiration for the woman who claims her krve in leap year. Leap year on the pai of women are not hy any means uncommon. Tha papers all over the land announce "leap veac mean marriages" which, of course, marriages resulting from proposals hy women. At Cleveland, Ohio, Miss Morgen roth counted the last minutes of the last year, waiting fordeap year to give neri a license to oxpresa her love, and the new, year of 190$ waa not ten minute old when ghe propqaed to William Herman, and was accepted. and Mr. Herman wanted hia bride so much that tha marriage took place the same week.

N.ixabeth Perkins, of Cleveland, asked Frank Jones to become the head of her nousehold, and he led her to the county cierk'e office. Ella Wheeler, of Denver, advised a namesake of hers, Frank J. Wheeler, that If tney married neither would have to change their name. He almost fainted, hut when ho Jid revive he Immediately secured a license. Miss Martha Wentworth, of San Francisco, told Harold Orion that it she could muster up courage enough should would take auvanlsge of leap year and propose to him, but he was generous enough not to tempt the courage by closing the contract at once.
