veritable a mere legal ass how does doos he take his humiliation atlon any true lawyer any capable and honest judge would have fled to the mountains and called on the rocks to fall on him and cover his disgrace A pretended friend of gen grant he would instantly have resigned as he has done more to disgrace grants administration than all the other officeholders office holders in this nation as the folio following winz wine extract from that most respectable cfall of all ali monthlies the atlantic will show aroura al always Be republican publican and nothing else eise the proceedings of ef the administration 10 n in utah have at last been thoroughly exposed and we must bay say that looking at them therm from any point of view they are to our minds the most extraordinary of the many extraordinary aeme acme in which it haa has beon been implicated the facts stated without either aggravating or extenuating circumstances were thee e adjudge was sent from washington to utah to prosecute the mormons cormons Mor mons this thia judge having arrived in rutih began to execute his commis slon bion by creating a court of his own and in trying under undra a code of his own men over whom he ha hd hid no jurisdiction by sitting as a territorial frudge judge when he needed the support 0 of the territorial laws and as aa a united states judge when the territorial laws lawa failed him he managed in a short dirae to make such confusion in utah that had bad it not been for the certainty of final redress by the 11 supreme court the cormons mormons would undoubtedly have taken tho the law into the their irown own hands and attempted to right themselves by violence but the illegality of all the proceedings was quite evident from the first judge mckean know knew quite as well as aa the mormons cormons that his proceedings would be upset by the supreme court and that the administration did not khow it also is to suppose not only that the president but the attorney general klows no law instead of doing as ag he should have done he be turns now to congress becomes a mere lobbyist asking Intel intelligent lf american representatives and senators to give him another law more infamous if possible than his own judicial usurpations a law which would place the citizens of utah and the millions of their property in the sole boie and exclusive control of justice mckean marshal patrick and U 8 district attorney maxwell that was to be baymore nay more than this that law jaw would have placed every civil suit involving these great mining cases under the exclusive control of these three gentlemen and the juries that they were authorized to pack by that statute the offspring of mckean and du dan voorhees ea when beside himself but thank hoa hea ven veu as he failed and disgraced himself and the administration by his judicial blunde blundering rini so haa has he made a greater fool of himself by his attempted lec ier legisla laia isla tion first and foremost this thia voorhees act is in direce direct contravention of the decision of the supreme court of the unit auld d states in the case of clinton vs englebrecht eng EDg lebrecht aud such lavers lawyers and statesmen as matt carpenter edwards of vermont sherman of ohio conkling of new york would never vote for a law which on its face was null and void vold jor for avant of p power 1 geer ower to muke make m ake it gen geni ben P F butler dawes of massachusetts garfield of ohio and morton of indiana respect the be law and gen grant too much to td ever permit dormit such a at statute to be adopted and the democratic party have too earnestly opposed the ku ka klux hill to vote for huoh hueh a measure this extract from the world tells tella their sentiments A prominent ex federal who arrived today to day from salt lake reports business improving the city peaceful and prosperous and nothing lacking for a quiet and successful summer but the assurance that grant newman and dyle dyre merean mckean kean rean will let them alone As for fer Wc mckean kehn rehn self respect and the respect due his judicial demand that he be elther either tender his resignation at once or return to his courts la in utah and in any event to cease his attempts to influence the making of the laws lawa which he is to execute failing disgracefully as a judae judge still more so eo as a lobbyist his last effort I 1 is s as a politician to have his bis cronies the virtuous A M gould and 0 J hollister represent him and the twenty car pet collected at corinne in the philadelphia convention and so make new strength with the president dr newman has proved as great a failure as his hig boswell Bo swell awell he has lost his church in washl washington naton has failed to become a methodist bishop in the convention and can no longer save himself at court now then these men turn to the phila delphia convention and astr ash that splendid body of men to endorse mckean with his hla blunders hib hla follies his vanities but all in vain the philadelphia del dei phia convention like ilke the grant press of the nation will denounce the operations in utah for the last twelve months as aa and of law

hee wee the law I 1 according to law the court here violated and trampled under foot toot all law imposing on the president and deceiving nim and thus the philadelphia convention will wisely shut its

dead weights on his shoulders and thank goethe god the end nigh As aa the enclosed telegraphic dispatch proves C H hempstead late united states district attorney for Utah arrived from salt lake city this am he reports reviving capital and capital ests arriving in the territory and that nothing to is necessary for a quiet and prosperous summer except the aalur ance that Con congress grews greus will permit matters to go on in their natural course chief justice mckean with several of his followers still remains in tha the city but bat there are indications from high quarters that a general change of the federal officers in utah will be made within ink ina a reasonable time grant isalow ia slow blow in his movements after imbecility corruption violation of laws but his hla mills like
