I am utterly opposed to interviewing in any form, said he, and I hope you will take pains to be accurate in your reports of what I may say. I should much prefer that my' name le omitted if that were possible. The reporter as.--u red M r. Young that it should le hi, endeavor to make a truthful report. In the fir- -t place, said Mr. there is a prevailing Young, opinion that we have not rightly estimated the good done by the introduction of the Pacific Railroad, and that it has done much harm to our religion. Now I say that no people have felt the advantages of a railroad more than we. A people for years from civilization and compelled to transport everthing in wagons 1,200 miles, at a cost of twenty cents a pound, must be uncivilized and bigoted indeed, if they did not appreciate the advantages of a road that brought civilization to their doors. We are not such a people. To le sure one effect of the railroad has been to introduce modern fashions among our people, and those living near the road are already assuming the dress of the period. Then if there are any dissatisfied persons among us and in what people are there not some dissatisfied ones? they invariably drift to Salt Lake City. Strangers meet these people, always ready to pour the story of their grievances, real or imaginary, into willing ears, and thus the story is spread that our religion will not bear the light of civilization. These strangers do us a world of injustice. They come to Salt Lake City, step off the train, ride to a hotel, then go around the city in the afternoon, question anybody who will answer them, ask questions simply to confirm their prejudices, and the next morning step into the ears and are off, thoroughly confident in their ability to judge Utah and the Mormons, and thoroughly determined, to scatter these judgments The fact is, conwidespread, tinued Mr. Young, our religion was never dearer to the hearts of our people; never were the princiSaints more ples of the Latter-daentrenched than they strongly in-ola- PROVO CITY OFFICERS.

The truth -, there are a horde of bu-bodies always active iu trying to work upon the weak and fi loli.-- h of our people, especially i? they think there is any money to lx; made. Our civil offices are filled with just sudi persons. The way the government of Utah is conducted is a living shame, a disgrace to the United .States. Our people, all living on the frontier, need gentle government. Just consider their jMisitiou, the hardships they undergo, the privations they experience, and then show me the justice in appointing the men to govern them whom tiie'Unllod .States Government sends men connected with the Indian Ring, the very scum of Eastern politicians. This is tlio way upKint-ment- s are made. Alter giving this office to one favorite, that to another, it is found that one or two old political hacks nre left. What shall we do with them? Oil, send them to Utah! And this is called justice! All that Utah wants is justice. We are loyal. We are true to the Union. i- y. e TIIE PATRIOTISM OF 1IER SONS. In time of war give Utah a chance ami see her people shoulder their guhs and rush to the front! And the keen gray eyes of the young railroad President flashed, and his cheek flushed. We resjK'Ct the Constitution, he continued, and we honor t ho Government and its officers when there is anything honorable alout them. But we do not honor or who respect the carpet-baggeare running our country. There are exceptions. There are men in Office in Utah who are worthy of respect. Judge Baker is such a man. There are two or three others, bbut only, two or three. But what could he expected when a Governor gets a salary of $ff,0K) only? One of two classes will naturally accept such au office either a man who can't make as much as that at home, or a man who is hxking for the perquisites. Occasionally will an honest man be found who, needing a change of climate or something of that kind, will accept these offices. Yes, Utah is prospering. We t. are daily Iteeoming more Our people are raising their own food and making their own clothing largely. We have excellent factories; already railroads are branching in nl.'direc-tions- , and our iron mines are being rapidly developed. Do you consider your silver mines your greatest source of wealth? Oh, no; our silver mines are owned by outside capital. It is in our fields of coal and iron that, our future wealth lies. The history of silver mining countries is significant. Silver goes out of a country and leaves it poorer. Iron and coal bring silver into a country. They are the real source of wealth. rs self-relian- y 44 44 to-da- Ik man who is to carry on that Hoik.

There was a foolish article in the papers some time since to the effect that I was going to leave the Territory and renounce my faith in the Mormon religion.
