Show That Delegation. Wc sec ko 1 much iu a number of our exchanges ! about some delegation of Mormons i going to Washington for soma purpose ' or other, th;it wo arc a little anxious t to learn who they are. Delegate j Hooper is in Washington by virtue of j his oiiice; lion. Geo. Q. Cannon has ' gone east, wo boliove, on private busi- ( uess, and a number of Elders are east on mik-us. But as for this notable ! delegation we have never heard any- ; tUu oi' it exc:nt from bitch "reliable ; sources" as furiii.-ih sensational tele- ; grams. We re(uo.it the eastern papers j to give tho name that wo may know i v.ho aro thus representing us. A tele-pram tele-pram from this city, bearing date Deo. i'.h, and published iu the .New York JkraUl, says: "A delegation of! Murmons left here for Washington on ' Sunday, with a view, it ii said, of ec curing proper legislation to protect the ! polygamous kuet of their religioD." j A3 no such delegation left here wo j need scarcely characterize the state- j iloii'. as a falsehood. 1 |
