Show GEORGE Q CASSO CAS cannone SO EDITOR AND PUBLISHER wednesday april io 1872 UNTIL within the last year or two salt lake city was really and ac knowledg acknowledge edly a model city as regards peacefulness morality and general good order even naw now in these particulars this city is in advance of any other in these western regions so far as we have learned at the same time during the last two years or so under the rule of the judge judge witha with githa a mission and his various alda aids and adjuncts what a ehan chan changetas change gehas has hab come over the spirit of the scenes now the open defiance of local and municipal law is a matter of dali dall daily dally V and notorious arid arld established and boasted occurrence why simply and wholly because of presumed judicial sanction a presumption by no means baseless for it has manifest fouli foundation N now owl houses of ill repute ax exist let iet thi the professional harlot boldly flaunts her finery and exhibits her brazen and bhame shame bereft face on the public streets an exhibition entirely due to the encouragement given by federal officeholders office holders for if they respected the laws and the municipal ordinances din ances no such exhibit exhibition ioia no such institution would be known in this city if we had a judiciary worth a snap for austice or the public welfare all nuisances of these kinds would be glad to make inake tb em selves scarce in double quick time and their patrons would be left lamenting there is another thing to which we ought in the performance of our d duty u t y as public journalists to refer and t that h a t Is the increasingly prevalent 0 offering ff ering of insults to ladies on the streets street those ladies particularly the younger ones who wish to avoid open insults from creatures who appear in the form though lacking the attributes of manhood should remember that immunity ean can mot be assured now in this city especially after the sun has gone down unless ariless masculine protection is near at hand it will be well too for all such lady insulters even if they do presume upon judicial protection to remember that alth aith although some persons may pass over such insults in a rather easy man ner there are others and their number is not few who most assuredly will not but who will promptly and effectually resent insolence to ladies no matter what the consequences extrajudicial or other may be HUMPREY MARSHAL died at his resl resi dence denee in louisville march 28 aged 60 years yearb he was wab As born horn at frankfort kentucky january 13 1812 graduated at af westpoint west point resigned studied I 1 law aw and became a successful and conspicuous practitioner in the courts of his native state during daring the mexican war he did good service as colonel of cavalry he was elected to congress in 1819 and served two terms he was waa appointed minister to china and afterward elected representative to the tho thirty fourth congress in 1861 he joined the southern confederacy and became a general of volunteers in the confederate service operating with little military credit in kentucky and tennessee after the close of the war says the indianapolis journal he lived quietly in louisville engaged in the active duties of his profession eschewing politics and otherwise conducting himself to the admiration of his friends mid and the indulgence of his enemies THAT old sore bore thea the labama alabama claims appears to be a long way from settlement yet and there is no reason to suppose that england will submit to the payment of consequential damages the san ban francisco golden mra mma has some sensible remarks upon that consequential part of the difficulty to the effect that it is by no means certain that the right of that part of the question is with the united states that the principle cip olp leof leot of indirect damages is too sweep ing and indefinable to be embodied in a law or tobe to be he worked into a precedent on which to base international law or usage that the attempt to embody buch such a principle in law would indol involve ve law in a labyrinth of difficulties that there has probably never uever been an instance of absolute neutrality observed by one nation to two belligerents with which it possessed intimate commercial relations that the alabama case neither j justifies ratifies uati nies fies nor requires a new principle of international law that the united states has not always been an impartial spectator of wars in either hemisphere that such a principle may operate ida injuriously url uri on the united states in the future as though now plaintiff in another in stance she may be defendant that the argument that england could not i afford to go to war is the argument of a bully and unworthy of consideration that the united states could not afford to sanction much less to urge the in corporation of an unsound principle into international law that the nearest practical approach to justice is the result that should be desired by all par ties iles that the united states cannot connot make a law to which she will not be herself bound that the smartness which secures a triumph in a mere squabble over little law points often becomes a dangerous quality when great principles are under consideration that the only desirable national triumph is the recognition of principles and establish ment of precedents in harmony with the spirit of our institutions and that irwill it will beof beoo be of little avail to humiliate england and wring a few millions from her piet plethoric hoile rea yury aury if we depart in the least from tho the th 0 line of true justice in so 50 doing THE following excellent legal doctrine wab was enunciated by judge david davis

if the case be judged on its merits we may reasonably expect i that a sense of security and tranquilly lity and confidence will pervade the bhe community and will nut fail to be felt in mining and

concerning the I 1 importance apor tance of the early filing of claims to lots lota or parts of lots within the city boundaries ac cording to the published notice of the mayor of the city the law requires all persons to file their claims to their city lots or parts of lots with the clerk of the county court of salt balt lake county by the of may of this present year 1872 consequently not more than seven weeks remain for the accomplishment of this essential preliminary to the obtaining of a perfect title and many claims are yet it will not be very prudent to leave this business until the last moment but many persons seem to be so BO doing unless indeed they do not think anything about it the titles under which the city lots are at present held are merely temporary preliminary provisional possessory the controlling title of course rests with the federal government and for our citizens to secure legal government titles to their thein lots they must proceed in the matter according to the law in the case ease made and provided it Is sheer folly and time involving hind hindrance ranc e and risk for any persons to make any stupid objections foria for if the law be not complied with the government title cannot be secured every person having proper claim to a lot or part of a lot should give this matter matte of filing his claim early arly and prompt attention and thus avoid as aa much as possible all chance of hindrance annoyance litigation and rish risk i in obtaining a proper title it would be an act ot of charity if those who are dull or procrastinating in this thia business were stirred up by their neighbors and friends to energy and promptitude in presenting their claims ere it be too late to local cal CAI AND OTHER MATTERS FROM THURSDAYS DAILY
