| Show 7 ANOTHER Y O f BE RE regenerations GENERATIONS 0 r ai f 00 the dispatches inform us that john jqhn B weller weiler has arria arrived ed in washington for the purpose of seeking protection for gentiles in utah the mission mission of the ex governor ex minister ex ax sena tor J and faded politician lean ican is worthy his associations while while here hete the miserable le party who made up the pony purse to aid his departure arid the back baek room whiskey caucuses by which th lob lon wp was assigned him while plans laid to increase the violence 7 of the lying slanders published against utah and her citizens that an opportunity might again onder offer for fresh contract sand a chance to replenish coffers now mow growing empty from the public purse of f the past career and character of this this new apostle of regeneration degeneration is the correct word we know a little of his peculiarly regenerative erat era tive lvell ivell course while here wo we know a great deal and it is pit pitiable lable labie to see a man who I 1 has filled honorable positions in the past descend so low as to become the tool of a depraved clique of miser able whiskey bloats bloat s and contract hunters and sink from an elevated position to the meanness of degradation but that surcharges our charges may not lack sustaining evidence and that the value of his mission may be appreciated by the authorities at washl washington we will notice one or two things and it may be ask a question or two mr weller when here was specially retained as counsel in the investigation into the death of dr robinson Eo binson he had the tead lead lead in that investigation and prolonged it from day to day and from week to week for how long and for what purpose no person who attended that inquest believed that the actual perpetrators of the prime were really sought 0 after the object was to fasten it upon the mormons cormons Mor mons and more particularly upon leading I 1 mormons cormons Mor mons and everything which had A tendency tend dicy diey to direct suspicion in any other guarter quarter was sedulously passed ever over over oven and thrown into th the eback background and the investigation was continued until the gentleman whose arrival in washington is telegraphed back from the east discovered that it was not a gold mine he was working that neither great salt lake city or county would have to pay him round fees for his valuable labors on that occasion but that he must look elsewhere for means means to meet board bills and indulge in extensive smiling As soon as the discovery was made that it was not going to pay in the manner expected the whole thing was tapered off to a point so quickly that it seemed like cutting it through the middle if we did not know the men their aim and motives who were behind the scenes and pulled the wires that J B W moved responsive to we would cry shame on his whole course in the matter far for it was a burlesque on prosecuting acdan and an outrage on common de ceney But Butt hose those who are arc his patrons here are known to be dead to sham shame e and it is waste of time to speak of it in I 1 connection with them now after mr weller sta stated in his speech pie prepared pared for the close of that investigation that threats of personal violence had been made against him during its progress and after he was asked in the columns of tho the NEWS to say who made those threats did he hot state to a gentleman of this city that there had been no such threats made we L know nom now he so admitted what would such an admission after such an assertion be if uttered by anybody but john B weller welter plain people would say bay that sueh such an assertion wasa was a falsification I 1 uttered for a purpose and plain people would bo be correct I 1 in ia so saying sayin k so much for the ver ven veracity delty deity of the gentleman but now for his present mission I 1 I 1 I 1 N he e is in washington gion to solicit protection for gentiles in utah ts Is he aare aware of a design assassinate to president ayoun young g tf there thene is suph a design is the accessory before thed theS the act fact he said in this City that he did not believe gentiles bould be mo molested ller here e unless 7 11 some ree Fec feckless kIess kless ana and hardened yli liilian ilan iian should ouid kilL hill President dent young and that he thought would be the sign signal a 1 for a general slaughter if then he believes that genii gentiles fes feb dould not be molested here unless president young should be killed and he has gone gone to washington to solicit protection for gentiles it looks as if he anticipated some such bloddy crime and was endeavoring to provide for the result but this very individual who was favored with a recommendatory letter to colorado from a certain notorious ex post comma commander fider who sadly needs a recommendation himself and who lectured there to obtain a few greenbacks green backs to help him eastward on his errand not having got sufficient here knows to his own satisfaction that gentiles in this city and territory do not stand in need of any protection if he does not know so why did he while in this city repeatedly bear testimony to the good order peace and security that prevail here was not his hi high 1 h toned civilization satisfied that everything requisite had been obtained when the city council licensed a few bars as he expressed his appreciation of its action in the matter while generously patronizing one of the institutions by declaring with gusto all ail ali ah this looks like being in a civilized place where a gentleman can get got a drink when he wants it or has he gone east laboring under the hallucination that he was turned out of a respectable gentile assembly because of his rigid sobriety this seeking protection for gentiles in utah is becoming stale and it seems strange that the fertility of imagination with which his patrons here are endowed could not have invented something else by way of a change and perpetrated some newer slander on the community it is time that the honorable portion of those who are not members of the church in this territory should publish the facts as they exist and let the world know that the rights of every man are respected here no matter master what his faith may be and that every man who will conduct himself as an honorable gentleman can enjoy the fullest security in person and property in utah we have not told all that we couldwell could fell tell by a good deal about 1 B W and his sayings and doings while here heye Y GOING james james jamea needham of the firm of bourne and needham declares in the most positive terms that he will go east cast this season to purchase goods and that his friends and the public may rely upon his so doing without fall this mauran ce will wiil be satis factory |
