Show JtAkl TI1KH MID. Tiirnn aro two thlnga which are especially reaping to the unrentant and unverarloua acrihea of the Halt Lake Irlfiant. One la the reference occaalonally made to the liogua lllahop Wiatlettir, publlalipil In lta oolumna with editorial comment, the othi r la Iheilrawlngofalteiitlontothe "What Utah WanU" article, In tho eame pnier, which alvocaled brotbela, aaloonaand gnmhlltighouaea aa moral relorraatorlea for the "Mormona." Citation of cither of thoe thamefiil emi'loua niakex the Trl'itme edltora madder than hornrta. Tho lltralil haa tien touching them up on the Witt Utter. Tiny therefore attempt an explanation of lta a) pear-a pear-a nor. They do not con'na that It waa concocted oil the Tribune premlacai nor make auy fair and aunre amlr3y fur lta manufacture Hut they now threaten to reproduce It (tJe hy aide with a genuine "Mormon" aeriuon In order oahow that the latter la tlio worao of the two. That laaterill !e threat. In all protiaAllty the acrmou will alio be bogua, for the TMunt never fairly re' jartfd a "Mormon" dlacourae yet, lut haa frequently lml off Iwlh Ideae au J lauguago of lta own aa the i roduc-tlou roduc-tlou of ,,Mormon"fiakeni, The rrliu'iecUlma that It waa Im' ptwed iin by tlie Went letter, an I that "It bote nil the earmarke of being genuine," Nobody In thla city ever U'llevrd a word of It nor of trie TViAune'j pit tended aotogy. There waa not the allgbteat rcacmbltnce In the alleged aerinon, to "Mormon" Mini, language or alyle. It iurrted to linve been delivered by a pcraon whuhad no rilatencr, by the lllahop of n place whlcli had no lllhop, an I on a day when no meeting waa hell there. It waa concocted for the then (I ivernor Murray to take with hlmto tlio I:mI, lohelphlm In ralalug prejudice agaliiit the "Mormona." It urged that Murray be trod on till hla bowel guahel out In tlio lire, la, Tho gran I olject waa to have UUh put under martial law, with Murray aa t-oiumanderl.ch!ef. A large number ofialra coplet waa printed for the purpoaeof raUIng a furore, and were uaed wllh that Intent. Horn e of tin ni reached the place In Teuneaaee where "Mormon" mlailonarlea were laboring, and nrouaed a feeling of monocracy which led to the macrft of nidira and Halnla, and the other terrible lieftrcutlone at Cane Creek In that Htatv. 'Iho vlllalnoua laihllcatloll waa wldtlyecattereil, the pretended apology, apol-ogy, which waa wurae than none, ro-cilieil ro-cilieil no apeclel nttentlon.
