deseret News hews is removed to the north northe northeast e east ast i r room bm of the council house up stairs where the newe newsy will be delivered henceforward the closing in of what it is generally supposed ased will be a winter of severity suggests a variety of questions to those who contemplate mor more ethan than a very short residence in our territory of these the first and bario by no means the least important esthe is the certainty of a sufficient clent supply of provisions till they can be yielded by another harvest the peculiar circumstances atti attached to the past years history of the territory have baye prevented the sowing and planting of the usual amount of seed grain and it ignot is not improvable that during the extensive move ment mentse of the citizens from the more norther northerly y settlements ettle ettie ments of the territory much of the grain then secured may have suffered waste to some extent the remembrances of th the e grasshopper war and the consequent semi bemi famine are sufficient proof that the farms of utah even in seasons of full cultivation yield very little more ro ore than the years rations for the citizens it must biow now be remembered abutin that in addition to the ordinary population of the territory there are several hundred discharged employees of the government who while they remain remain here will be almost entirely dpn dependent dent upon our out granaries for their iod lod food nor should it li ba forgotten as importantly incidental t to 0 au our r subject that an immense quantity tk of wheat has been sold to the army for tor forage at the usual ratio of issuing forage four hundred horses or mules would consume the samp amount of bread daily as six thousand per perr r sons not mot this alone but thousands of animals animals belon belonging in to the citizens are fed on wheat we do not deny that under general circumstances sti str ce every man has a right to make such disposal of his property as he please whatever 1 kind anait inait it may be but there are laws un written as well as that govern our I 1 I 1 social relations and bind hind society together for mutual protection A min man may not with immunity burn his own house at the risk of firing his neighbors nor fire his bis grain on the wind war wai dide of another anoche r mans field neither is it any aby more morally legal 0 for one man to paste faste waste baste his bis bread when thereby he compels his bis neighbor either to see him perish or suffer in the famine helas he has provoked we urge then upon nall nail all ail the present residents a as well vell as the permanent citizens of tiye the territory to 0 give this matter their gerlov serious consideration let the civil guardians of the public welfare call pall for a full and minute rep the amount of bread in the territory let each responsible member or head of a family make the inquiry for or himself so that if there is indeed a scarcity economy may be used in time till this is ascertained with some degree of 0 certainty we do not hesitate to pronounce it a most mischief working breach of social law to waste an ounce of bread or needlessly dispense it out as forage for beasts it ra must be remembered again that we are now for some seven or eight months beyond the re reach h of markets whence we may inky replenish Z our provision stores it is also an acknowledged fact moreover that it is by no i m means ean s safe to rely solely upon each successive fi arvest harvest for our bread A loud cloud of grasshoppers eps eis or a seasons drouth would throw us irretrievably trieva bly upon the resources of our old supply will the people consider this subject of sufficient importance to take the necessary precautions I 1 against months of incurable hunger bunger A another adother er question for the consideration of the citizens inize ns is how bow they may best the t fj P U b 11 c p peace e a c e du duning during the len ien lengthening nights of the coming winter police riots or rows with the police are getting to be of weekly occurrence in our city they are nightly in the more moral cities of bf the elst east there is an easy way to avoid avold them here the simple adoption of the old familiar creed mind blind your own business woula would would de be a sure successful preventive tive business hours are not very late in utah there are arp saloons of various degrees of respectability wherein tipplers tipp lers may way perform their insa insane n orgies if they confine themselves to some degree degreg of quietness but bat to preserve the peace and quiet of our city we recommend that ladies remain at home and gentlemen limit themselves to reasonable hours or at least to their legitimate walks and line of business it is a fact that the nonsensical ideas 0 of f aristocracy are confined to the lands of despotism reputation or character are not or og should not be formed here by linsey woolsey or satin by corduroy or cassimer neither can we distinguish in the he dark nights of winter between the gentleman pretender who swe swears arsba bawls w Is and staggers under the influence of re galias alias and champagne and the team ster who riots in pipes and drugged whisky all peaceably disposed citizens and residents will encourage good order by night and day and will suffer no wrong nor interruption from officers of the peace those who seek trouble will probably learn hat that the wahsatch Wah satch mountains do not shut out all the rights of american citizens and that rows with the police will redound no more to the honor of gentlemen in utah than in new york or st louis wild oats are not a profitable crop in thib this desert land it is very true that the winter wit with h its storms and long nights presents rather a dreary prospect for the sojourner but to those who seek other recreations and amuge amusements ments than wild drunken revelry even utah holds out inducements and means for employment at once profitable and entertaining everywhere we travel around our cities we find empty schoolhouses school houses bouses and hundreds hundreds of young men and boys to are well sat bisfie dedication in all its branches would be by no mean means s unacceptable abe among the many whose residence will probably be in our midst for the winter there are doubtless men of superior literary attainments we need teacher of bf all bi branches anches of the english r ian lan language ua ie particularly of the higher branches we need and invite the seri services ices of gentlemen capable of teaching french danish german italian spanish russian and in fact every known language 0 at present spoken spoke nelve jowe need and invite our friends must not be alarmed we need and invite teachers of law lawi th this is ai might ht seem strange to those who have m witnessed the immense array of professors around the bars of our courts but we do not form a part of the easily dazzled crowd who judge a mans le leai legal leal al J attainments or even his common sense by his admission to the bar or the number of sheep 1 skins on his bis shelves the study of law in in a country like ours where every man is equally interested in its justice and enforcement should engage b the attention more v or less of all every everyman man in the unite united d states should be his own lawyer the limit of the study to a few has made it an abuse and by the abuse the very name dame of lawyer has justly merited contempt in every country here then is offered the means to the well disposed and liberal minded to spend a winter of usefulness to the industrious and honest there is no time found in hayland any land for debauchery and riot the idle and vicious make their 0 own wn temptations and become their victims everywhere PEACE BREAKING ATTACK ON THE POLICE on monday night dinst several persons were carousing and making a loud noise in Livio geton kinkead cos gos store A little after 10 pm some seven or eight persons came out of the store yelling screeching in 0 and shouting 0 god damn the police ac the nearest policeman on beat was then about twenty yards south of the store lie ile stepped up to the party and civilly requested them to make less noise mr C kint kinkead ead said that he rented ranted th the place and would be responsible for the conduct of the party all an officer of the U S army one of the party ordered the policeman away saying they would have no damned spies around that store A small posse of the police appearing the store pary party retired to the door yelling Z and bading baaing t the police then then retired to ave station except the two who were ah on the beat sou pou south t h of the store who continued patrolling the street as previously about 10 minutes nil ril affer afterwards wards some of the h store party bame iame came out by a side door yelling god damning the police tb rowing iving stones at it the two on the south beat threatening i to shoot and saying that if they could get a sight of them they would send bend something worse than rocks 0 ae e of the two policemen then ran a short distance to the station got his gun and add speedily returned by that time apparently the whole of the store party 1 were again out some with revolvers they advanced ced on to the sidewalk and ordered the policeman emanoff off other policemen soon gathered round and one of the store party hit a policeman over the eye with a stone astone when the policeman knocked him down As the army officer who had previously busly ordered off a policeman li ceman stooped to pick up stones from the water ditch he was knocked into iko it on the outside line of be the sidewalk side walk some one of or the store party then fired a revolver and the report was speedily followed by two or three more pistol shots after some further knock downs the store party called for quarter which was readily and frankly granted mr kinkead w was as heard beard to say that the gross outrage was the fault of him and his party that they had come out of the sto store re on purpose to insult and have a row with the police the police at no time left their beat on on the sidewalk neither did they fire their guns notwithstanding iNith standing the violent outrageous and armed assault much of which discretion is doubtless due to the presence during the fray of oi our worthy mayor who was attracted to the spot from his bis way home by the unearthly bilings yel yei lings and noise odthe store party dr covey of the US US army received a ball from a pistol but we have not been able to learn by which party or whether severely we sincerely regret that mr james munroe livingston was at the time in camp floyd and the store left in charge of one who by action and confession has proved himself so reckless mr livingston has traded in our territory Terri territory tor y most of the time since the f fall all of 1849 and we have never known him to in the least transgress law
