| Show y dair THE GIRLS THE NEWS of last evening in a local solves the quei que tion what shail shah we do with our giris girls sIll 1 and relieves reliever reli rell eves evea the lecture lecturers its irs of the trouble n of studying atu dying the subject and telling f lyus ius us any more about it it says marry them to the boys ull uil all I 1 I 1 very well a aa as far as it g goes oes but bat 1 afus keus fus jus it takes two to make a bargain T alid and as the boyr boys are not always ti gir 5 ready to bo be done with them X i till they are arm are 1 l vwe We clip cip the above from the salt bait wj lake herald of this morning the point is well taken we ledge it freely the question is I 1 ai pertinent we will endeavor to an noi xii xui awer it let the men take them nae nai it is a lamentable fact that a As J great many of the boys are nut I 1 ready to marry the girls it may 4 be that in some instances they are s not to blame it takes considerable means nowadays now a days to support a wife in anything like the style of il the period and quite a number of i the girls think style is the one thing needful still there is a Q host of marriageable girls in this city and most of them would be i willing to help fight the battle of 1 life with a congenial companion n and show themselves really heip help meets to loving husbands but the young men shrink from the reabon t ties and expenses of married life and therefore neglect a very important duty to society one ot at 0 the commandments of god and stud a rule of the church to which they belong it I 1 i every healthy young man who 1 can biru a living should take a i wife it may be objected but betit it takes two to make a bargain exi at acely and the other party to the uj 04 contract can easily be found pro ai I 1 aided vided the parly party of the first part i i is not too exacting and particular in his choice there is no need to wait until a large amount of money ia 13 13 ly saved with sufficient means to i furnish a room and employment remunerative enough to provide necessaries a young couple united in heart and raith ralth and determine 1 tion to make their way in the i world can marry be happy and b i make headway through t lide lifo tos is gether 1 girls should be educated in house i j hold duties and with the prospect in view ot 01 managing a home of t their own the of the housewife are far more useful and productive of comfort and hap bap than the ornaments buts euta of education such as piano playing fancy t needle work outward adornment S J aud and graceful deportment now coul eldered essential if all these can be acquired with that knowledge i which ia is necessary to a true wife it who to assist her husband 0 instead of being a weight upon his energies BO so much the better 1 the desire for expensive pleasures and to live in alternate alter aller nate idleness 1 and amusement nent which ia Is growing upon young people in american society ia Is taking lacing hold of our girls and boys too in the larger cities ef of utah it la is working evil everywhere luxury tends to weakness of body and of mind A purposeless life is a wretched existence A useless life is criminal let moth era train their daughters for the true phere phero of womanhood which they can only reach fully in the family relation and honorable maternity t and those mothers will confer upon the r children a far richer heritage i than can be represented by any figurea ef f dollars and cents and ix 1 I 1 the boys will be encouraged to wed the girls when they can see that in taking a wife they obtain a helpmeet instead of a fancy and expensive article to teed clothe andrup and support A gr great eat number of marriages have ta taken k on place since the reopen re open ing of the endowment house in this thia city it has been reported and circulated very industriously that these marriages are polygamous it ia is amusing to note how mea who lie by telegraph contradict themselves they commence by stating that such marriages are performed clr formed with the utmost secrecy in U the next sentence they a an bounce a certain number of polygamous unions thinking people enquire how these eager telegraph ista find out full particulars of that which is BO so secret that the officers of the law can obtain no clue to it the fact la Is that these have been principally of young people from the country the luxuries and extravagancies of ot city life have not yet extended to the rural districts to such an extent as to maker marriage formidable to the boys it seldom is very formidable to the girls A young man in the country can find without difficulty a partner for life who is not afraid to work with him for mutual sustenance nor to commence the partnership with the bare necessaries for comfort but with all the marriages that have taken place there are still large numbers of marriageable girls and women who remain unmated what is to be done with them asks the herald if the boys are not ready to wed them we answer the men will have to take them and if they do fulfilling a revealed law of god performing a duty to an un constitutional statute framed framm against an establish establishment me rit of religion and for the purpose of prohibiting the free exercise thereof what ia is going to be done about it and who is going to bo be injured if all parties immediately interested are in peri feet accord concerning the arrangement the bebb beet thing to be done with the girls ia Is to marry them to the boys but if it the boys boya wont and the men will we sire are not going to raise any objections and if we should we doubt if it it would make much difference NOT A SQUARE DEALER THE editor of the beaver square dealer is ambitious but not wise he alms aims to distinguish himself but if it he continues his present bayle will only succeed in hta hla own extinguishment his great forte la Is finding fault but the faults be he assails are frequently imaginary and be he is usually found butting violently against the wind his hla latest exploit is an assault against all the delegates who have represented utah la in congress whom he charges by implication with never accomplishing any substantial for their constituent cy because they have never made an effort to secure the people of utah iu their homestead rights here is the situation of our L ulah utah itah farmers aa as he describes it almost every acres surveyed bythe by the government covering land in cultivation found more than one occupant in many cases a half dozen farmers are accommodated by the same quarter section A glanceau glan ceat the situation reveals the ain impossibility possibility of these thebe settlers availing themi themselves selves ol 01 the homestead or preemption pre emption act acl although this is the situation of the hardy pioneers of utah congress has refused from year to year to pass any law for their re relief lief ilef A very nery little legislation W would ouid have sufficed it was only necessary to recognize the surveys which the legislature had caused to be made in the dis tribu tion of the land among the people and authorize one man to homestead and deed over to his adjacent neigh neighbors bors such por portions tina tiDa as the county records showed them to be entitled to it would certainly be in good taste and withal show a little nood good sense for the press of the territory to unite enito in an effort to secure a modification of the homestead law that will allow fillow the farmers to ob tain a title to their lauds lauda with without out ru running nning the risk of being sent to the penitentiary for false swearing 1 now let us quote from the revised statutes of the united states in regard to the public lands sec see 2274 when settlements have been made upon agricultural public lands of the united states prior to the survey thereof and it has been or shall be ascertained after the public surveys have been extended over such lands that two or more settlers have improvements upon the bame name legal sub bub divi sion blon it shall be lawful for sue suc sueh such settlers to make joint entry of their lands at the local land office or for either of obeaid baid said set bet tiers liers to enter into contract with his hla co settlers to convey to them their portion of said land after a patent is 19 issued to him ands and after making said contract to file a declaratory statement in his own name and prove up and pay for said land and proof of joint occupation by himself and aind other others and of such corl coti contract tract with them made shall be equivalent to proof of sole occupation and arid preemption pre emption by the applicant proui Provi dedI that la in no case shall the amount patented under dorthis this section exceed one hundred and sixty acres dorshall nor shall this section apply to lands not subject to homestead or preemption pre emption entry this section became a law march 3rd ard 1873 and was enacted through tile tiie labors of our delegate it is only obe one of the many benefits obtained for the people of utah by the gentlemen who have faithfully represented them in congress who have been noted at the capital for devoted attention to the interests of their constituents and who are li belled by the person now ruining the square dealer we think olt it would certainly be in good taste and withal show a little good bense sense if that exceedingly inept in would inform himself on the subject which he undertakes to expatiate cultivate caution when he essays personal criticism critic ismor or retire from a position to which he is evidently unsuited the farmers in southern utah need be under no apprehension of being sent to the penitentiary for obtaining title to lands jointly occupied they are la in far less danger ulan than their unsafe would be adviser who is liable to the penalty prepared for fon or those who bear false faise witness against their neighbor he Is the v ery very antipodes of a If square dealer |
