Show JOURNALISTIC AMENITIES. How They are Cultivated Salt Lake Citv, Oct. 2S, 1S73. Editors HcralJ: When reading Mr. Harrison's card, in this morning's IJuuM', J ee-n-duded to ask you to Ml tl public o: another instance of the ''unknown person's" reliability in ncw.-p.iper matters. Some ten days aco, an "unknown pereon" went to Uishop Procter, o! the Tenth Ward, saying that "Brother" "Broth-er" Sloan, of the JIkkai.d, had sent him to ascertain facto concerning the burning of Mr. Clausen's house, as the Tribune had published s.mt-stiitoments, s.mt-stiitoments, and "Brother"' Sloan wishtd bun lo find out .horn the Bishop Bish-op if they were- correct. The Bishop courteously talked with him over hall an hour ou the matter, nnd, on coining up town in the - afternoon, happened to see the same "unknown person" walk bravely into the T itmru Ollico, being the news "gatherer on that papor. , Bislrop Proctor told me he was willing, will-ing, at all tunes, to impart information informa-tion to any person, - no mutter what his profession may be, but he likes to know honestly whom he has the honor of addressing, and does not wish to be imposed upon by false represenua-tinns. represenua-tinns. - Mr. Editors: My private conclusion conclu-sion on. this matter in connection with Mr. Harrison is, that such "men as these "unknown persons" prove themselves to be, are not worthy oi anv confidence or reliability in journalistic jour-nalistic matters. A man that will thus use another one's name, lalsely and maliciously, would also be capable cap-able of doing it on a bank cheek, and is a dangerous man, or, more phdnly . speaking, a dishonest man, and should be shunned in every capacity by business and public men.
