Show .MAKI.VG NEWS. A ridiculous story, say the dispatches, dis-patches, has reached Washington from Kurope, that President Grant had offered of-fered the Czar a fleet of war vessels in the event of war, and had written an autograph letter to that effect. The try is pronounced a pure fiction, manufactured out of whole cloth. We beg to assure President Grant and everybody else that that is the way lots of Utah news) has an origin; and stories from here ycry ol'tcn remain uncontradicted uncon-tradicted for the same reason that this fabrication concerning I'ruwdcnt Grant remained uncontradicted up till now. It has been in circulation fur weeks and passed over tho telegraph wire before, be-fore, but we que'iliou if anybody paid the least attention to it or five il any credit. TIih little pjint a reminder of Lov "news" is (,. and Utah "fi iw?" is prominently of this fashion. |
