Notwithstanding the popularity with which the instructions of the Utah Commission relative to permitting the ladies to register, are being reoeiyed, Tne Blade desires to enter its protest. The vain and silly boast of the Salt Lake Herald in its "Political Arena" that "The Republican party dare not shoulder a protest agaiust women voting thrs fall," is full of disguised falsehood, because that party are in full sympathy with equal suffrage. The Blade's objection to permitting the sisters to vote at this coming election on trie constitution is based on two propositions. The first is, that the legal fraternity are divided in their ipmions as to its legality, and those that declare against its legality are more likely to be free from partisan bias than ire those that favor it. The second proposition is involved in the first, and n is found in the fact that thert exists a strong under-curren- t of to woman sufferage, Those However, the indications are so fa- opposition make that up the opposition are the vorable as to justify close prospecting ones that, in the past, have been the along the zone in which the coal ha )ittar enemies of Utah.

It is universally con- ceded'that coal was formed by a rank growth of vegetation on low. marshy ground. That in subsequent centuries, the beds of vegetable moved thus formed, gradually sank into the oceans and that great masses of iack were forraed, layer upon layer, until the enormous pressqre, combined with the interior heat qf the earth. the beds of vegetable mouldwere metamorphosed into veins of stone coal. It was the oulmination of all the necessary conditions that gave to Pennsylvania its 30 foot vein of Authro-cit- e or hard coal, In those early days the system of animal and vegetable life underwent comparatively rapid changes. Eaoh chan re was accurately recorded by a tmrial of the various forms of animal and vegetable life. By a systemhas atic study of those forms-fossilsbeen, demonstrated that certain forms existed during the true carbonifiers that did not exist in the preceeding age and that ceased to exist in the age that succeeded it. The foregoing facts have been explained in order to make iutilligible that which is to follow. A study of the fossils belonging to the coal period would save thousands of dollars' worth of time each year by those that are searching for coal. An encouraging feature of the coal-finnear Nephi is. that the right kind of fossil plants are found in the rook lying next to the coal, and proves, so far as formation is concerned, that the Notwithrecent find is all right. standing conditions are thus far favorable, the quantity of ooal to be found may be so limited as dot to be profit-aolto work the beds: for it is a seeming paradox, that where oonditions. uecessary to the presence of coal, exist, the fuel may not be found in paying quantity.
