This was too bad. we dislike to refrain from com- Why could not Judge Boreman re- f She 0 yet ments lest such controversy might euiue. Thtrefure we feel inclined to that our coteuiporary remark &t Salt Lake City, the Tribune is hard to please, and when diapleased is not by any means backward in its ' dissent from whatever act or opinion to-da- y fault with. Inded we have sometimes thought that in its case the liberty of speech had degenerated into licentiousness, or at least that it claimed "A charter free as the wind, to blow on whom it it finds pleased." There are people so uncharitable as to apply epithets to our neighbor, believing, as they say, that the Tribune has become a "common scold." It has perhaps earned 'this reputation from the fact that it is the trusted organ of a "ring" which had a mission to per form, and as such organ has freely indulged in language condemnatory of others, it becomes Dur duty to defend our cote'm. against the charge, and in its behalf deny the soft impeachment it is not a common but an uncommon performer. The immortal Bkckstone, in commenting on certain laws and usages by which common scolds were punished in ancient times, defines the "ducking stool" as a "stool or chair in which common scolds were formerly tied and plunged into water," as a punishment for too much indulgence in the art of scolding. We believe that the ducking stool has not been introduced into Utah, but if it had, think we have shown that tho Tribune is not amenable to its punishment. It is to be expected that, should a "Gentilo" be seen in friendly conversation with a "polygamous Mormon," tho vials of its wrath would descend upon the devoted head of such "Gentile" from the columns of the Tribune. Had Governor Axtell on his arrival in Utah, gone at once into tht bosom of the ring, all would have gone well with him. As he did not, behold tho result! Time will tell what may be tho courso of that gentleman's successor; time will also reveal his treatment by the "organ." The last ebullition of words on the part of tho Tribune was produced late decisiou of the Supreme by Court in the Reynolds case, and although that paper finds a few crumbs of comfort in the "curt" remarks of the Judge in his opinion, which "that the plea of Reynolds' at- ts de-cla- re torney, that the practice of polygamy is a part of the religious belief of the defendant, "is, aa we conceive, based upon neither reason, justice nor law, and therefore we dismiss it without further notice," yet, still, because the court . has reversed the action of tho Third District Court, the Tribune is not happy. Under this ruling, judicial matters are knocked "galley west," whereever that may lo. "No more indictments can be found under tho Poland bill." It is a matter of peculiar regret to our contemporary that thelawa of the spect the feelings of the Tribune, and omit this, the last, and "most unkindest cut of all?" Ah I but this Supremo Court i3 unwilling to "imply" anything; it must have a clear enactment, and here is where our client is aggrieved. To suit the Tribune, Congress must do all the legislatioH, the Territorial legislature sone, and whera the act:on ef the former is doubtful the Supreme Court must by "implication" infer such and such a law and decide accordingly. When will the Judges ever learn ? Wo are of opinion, from the despondent tone of our complaining that Othello's occupation is gone, or will soon be, for he advises "our judges to shut up shop," saying that "a blundering "Congress and judges have brought judicial affairs iuto such a fix that there is really no use trying over-scrupulo- to keep up appearances fonycr." THE CURKEXOY ISSUE. Since the Ohio Democracy, at its late convention declared that "the volume of currency should be made and kept equal to the wants of trade, national bank circulation be permanently retired and legal tenders be issued in their places," the newspa pers have renewed the agitation if it had ceased of the currency question. We give a tew brief expressions on the Subject, to show the diversity of views thereon. ' The New York Herald thinks the action of the Ohio Democrats more than ordinary attention, because the hopes of success of that party in the Presidential race next year will sink or rise in proportion to their success in Ohio next fall.
