Show j Yesterday Thk Dispatch gave i!s readers the new constitution entire. We may refer to it frequently this summer and fall and review it 1 1 times when editorial themes grow scarce in the hot days to come. We can say now that we are tolerably well pleased with the document and will supportit with all of our earnest, ;aLd not because of anything the Herald . ! may have said in its favor, W are rather inclined to love the liberty of talking out in meeting and we are not in love with the dictum of one man or paper. When it Rets so that a democrat demo-crat cannot exercise the privilege of thinking for himself in te party we shall choose an abler mentor than the Herald, or eo to s-mo other party. It will not lesson the alleged crime of Dr. Mabry to Bay that the Rev. Gil-lilan Gil-lilan had no business to tell on him. Some of the papers are blaming the latter gentleman for "giving away" professional secrets, for trotting out the skeleton said to be locked in every yestry room, but we are not of those who blame. Ko self respecting and virtuous minister of the gospel of purity pur-ity knowing such a thing could have done le3S than the Key. Gillilan did. The only thing left to regret in this connection con-nection in our judgment is, that it was not turned up to the public gaze long since. And doubtless this will soon be the opinion of Lawyer Reilly also. lie is about the most iniured and unfortunate unfor-tunate party in thi3 unsavory mee3 of moral rottenesp. Poor Reilly The great Salt Late scandal has so shocked the Salt Lake morning p&pers that they have not yet got their intellectual intel-lectual legs sufficitntiy under them, to be nblc to treat it, other than in an aj p .'lozctic way. The higher the ecclesiastic eccles-iastic who commits such a crime the sterner should be the journalistic reproof. re-proof. Salt Lake will not recover from this great moral lapse for many a day. It is too bad and every enemy of Utah and her people will be overjoyed.' Why should the New Star now point out the defects in the constitution? It should have done that while the defects de-fects could have been remeded. Now it is too late, unless the paper in question ques-tion wishes to compass its defeat. We do not believe that is possible and the only effect will be to arouse an impotent im-potent and useless opposition, a thing which ought never to be done. Work only while you can do good, never when you cau only accomplish harm. The Woman's Exponent has been handing the Millard Blade a chunk of tally recently, and it is tickled aimost to death. We have neyer yet seen the Exponent and so do not know how much the taffy is worth or how mudi licKled the Blade should be. We will imsa me convention sadly now that it has adjourned. What splendid suggestions it furnished lor leading articits while it was in life. We cannot see lor tne life of us why the papers should be bo oyeijoyed at its adjournment.
