Show a lAWfititi. mih.imhimii. Ov another age of thla Itsue we reproducv a unique corrtsponJeuce aldrenee.1 to (lovernor Tfiomaa by nn addle-headed Individual tiling tho name of Chartra llelnhold. Tho coin munlcatlon, which la on the sul cct of Ihe sheep bill, now pending III the I.eglslallvo Assembly, n peam(o have been given to the "l.lbtral" organ for publication. Aa lo the reason for Mr. Thomas desirous to have itihllclly given to Helnhold'a hash, that la Uat known to himself. It could not have been In thelnlertst of crtallnga correct Impresaloo with regard lo the bulk of the population of thla Terrllor). To make this clear we here Introduce an extract from Helnhold'a sl!ntera thrown on from a dlaordired lmaglna. tlont "If thla bill becomes a law, a alieop cannot exlat, nor can they go up or down any canyon, and any tleutllo owning a herd ran bo annoyed and driven out, an t a Mormon can own tbo rangn. It la clevis legislation, an I no Juat man, hating, tbo wclfareof hla fellowman at heart, would uphold auch a measure It la a Mormon nieaaure, lulled by a Mc uicin 1.0 glala ture, all I auch bllla baio atwaabeell etood by tho (loiernor, and we aak you aa a tec of Jiutlco to veto this, the vry worst measuru of tbem allt no aik you to examine the aectlou tt and aeo If Ibat doca not fill the bill.'' The fellow who penned that epistle to hla 1'xcellency directly charges the preient Legislature with aaalug laws that apply to one class of shtep-ownera without having any bearlug upon thorn of another class, and aiaerta that the reent Iieglslature Is lorn jioied of "Murmous," all of which Is utterly (also. "It la a 'Mormon' raeie ure," he ixclalins, when the fact Is that tho number of sheep owned b Gctn-ttleabeara Gctn-ttleabeara nocomparlion to the herdi of which "Morniona" are the projrle tors. Conequently, whatever hard-ihlpor hard-ihlpor Injuitlce would lw entailed Icy the taauige of tho bill lu question would fall with much greater wolpbt ujwn "Mormon" sbeep men thnu any others tonnrcted with that Industry. In connection with his ri-quist that Ihe (lovernor veto the bill over which llelnhold haa becomo excited, and which haa tausetl him to cxhlcit his ailulnoUudcnchs, he declarea (hat the existing btatuto on the subject (ace.
