Show The Penitentiary. Congress passed a law before the close of the late session transferring the control of penitentiaries erected by the United States, in Territories, from Territorial officers to United States officers. How will this law effect the penitentiary of Utah, erected partly by the United States funds and partly by Territorial funds? ' Will the two sets of officers each have control of a share of the building, chalked off in proportion to the amount expended by the Government Govern-ment and the Territory? Or can Congress Con-gress dispose of the funds of a Terri tory without the consent of those who were taxed for the funds, given through their representatives? How is it? |
