Show NEW .MEMBER IN' THE AXAXIAS CLUB We do not hardly feel competent to enter into a newspaper controversy with writers in so exalted a paper as the Salt Lake Tribune, but a certain article in the issue of that daily on the 25th in st. . column one page twenty-two has just been called to our attention. The reason we mention this at the present time, is that we want our readers to see the article mentioned, and if we should wait to call their attention to it next weeK, their copy of the Tribune might be destroyed. We of course do not know the source of Mr. Rishell's figures, but when he says only 2108 arrived j in Utah over the Midland trail and the Arrowhead trail, he makes himself him-self eligible to membership in the Ananias Club, because of actual count over that number entered Utah over ! the Arrowhead trail in the past five ' months. Evidently Mr. Rishell considers con-siders Salt Lake City to be the whole of Utah and that all south of Salt Lake county is foreign territory and i deserving of no consideration. If the Tribune wishes to endorse that at-i at-i titude, and we take it they do, we 1 j surely shall be under the necessity ; of doing what little we can to coun-I coun-I trract this influence in the outside I territory.
