Show DAMAGING SENSATIONALISMS- la tho Utter part of hl summer, wliun arrests were being nialo on vari-mi.i vari-mi.i cliarcft'uf proiuin''iit eniK-ment in tlii.i city, tL-kyrajih agents were Luy .enliiiK he iiri at tonal dinpatcties to the pitMS of the country ol'terrible riot and hju i.-hi i.l tliat were to occur iu this riry awl Territory. It Ls needles: to any now that none of the sanguinary pruno.itieation.-i then indulged in have bcieu fulfilled; but tlio result of those ti'Irjrrains w:ih to seriously injure husi-iu:-.i hi full and during the early purl of the winter. The Associated i'res-j a.truut, fure.-euing that .such would be the caho, for a time endeavored to allay al-lay the apprehen.sioDHof capitalists, by telegraphing that there wxs no trouble hero nor was any expected; but bubsc-iiucntly bubsc-iiucntly becoming a violent paitisan his dispatches were colored to suit party purposes, and became as unreliable a.s they had been previously reliable. This puiuo kind of inflammatory and sensational telegrams are again being sent to the press of the country, in the hope that an opinion may be kept alive, no mailer by what means, to aid Hpceial and prospective legislation against Utah to gratify a few who do not seem to care what interests suffer if their private and vindictive feelings can bo gratified. It was telegraphed to the press on Tuesday that "the Mormon authorities had commenced a series of arresUt," which 7tw dimply a direct violation of the truth, having in view the creating of a feeling of distrust dis-trust with regard to the stability of peace in tho Territory. Letters have already been received in town from prominent gentlemen in California, who designed coming here at an early day to es amino aud invest in mining properly, prop-erly, inquiring "What is the new trouhlo in Utah?" And their correspondents, corres-pondents, surprised at the inquiry, lmvo replied that there is no trouble here nor is there any grounds for believing be-lieving that there will be aoy. It was also asserted yet-terday evening that tho telegraphic correspondent of the New York Herald, in this cily, had written and was about to sond to that journal, after reading it to some gentlemen, gen-tlemen, a most iutlammalory telegram, predicting trouble here. The undoubted undoubt-ed result of such dispatches must be, if they are uncontradicted, to deter capitalists who had designed coming hero, from doing so. Now, we wish tho country u understand under-stand that all is peace and quiet in Salt Lake city, and apprehensions of difficulty exist nowhere in this Territory Terri-tory except in tho fancies of a very few, some of whom arc paid for manufacturing manu-facturing their sensations, and the others are measurably led by them nnd arc nuiicquaiulcd with the true history of the Territory. We have railroads to build, mines to open and develop, manufactures to encourage, and industries indus-tries of various kinds to iiMcr and strengthen; and there never Was anything any-thing further from the minds and desires de-sires of tho people of tho Territory ihau that trouble of any kind should, occur, and no other wish than that all, even those who are so persistently en-1 deavoriug to injure the Territory in a I variety of ways.should be most sacredly! protected in tho enjoyment of every right and privilege which American citizens claim, and of which these same, sensationalists would seek to deprivo tho great body of tho population of Utah. |
