Show MR. LTXCII WILL STAY. But Does Not Want any mercantile Business in His. Ex-Postmaster John T. Lynch, who was succeeded last week by Mr. W. C. Browe, does not intend leaving Utah. He said to a Democrat reporter this morning that he should make Salt Lake City his headquartera and should devote much of his time to the industry of min ing, bait Lake, as a place of residence, has no attractions for me," said Mr. Lynch; "only that in my business affairs it will be convenient as a point to work from. I wouldn't invest in any mercantile bussiness in the town on any account, as I consider the boycotting o"f the Mormons too completely organized to admit of great things being accomplished by any Gentiles who are candid enough to speak their minds. I had some experience ex-perience in that during mv association ! with the wagon and implement business of Lynch & Cottrel. After my return from the East, where I had expressed my views on the Mormon question freely, I ascertained from a gentleman who t traveled through the Territory that in the meetings of every little "village the bishops and men in authority urged upon the people the edict of the Church ostracising ostra-cising our firm from the business relations rela-tions and patronage of the people. No, I will take mine in some other pursuit, and one that will not keep me tied down to Salt Lake City, too." |
