Avotuer cousideration, The eristocratic element Of society —that Of the mtelligence and Wealth of the country--will Dot attend the trotting reanions that are Leld about the cites in sucii inesses, as they Visit tie parks where ruuning meetings are held. There are many reasons for this, ‘The tterest to them is not so great, Jaasmuch as the trickertes of MWe trotting turf are weil Known and the exhivi- tions generally devoid of the excitement when | is caused by doubts as vo the probable winners. Thousands of wealthy geutiemen own and will con- Unue to Own fast trotting horses in the country, using them for their daily pleasures, vat they will not allow them to go into the hands of protessional Jockeys and be matched for trials of speed. The irauds of Uie tort have producea this resuit, and unless there is a complete revolution In this particular the demoralized condition of ‘the trotting vurt will be- come greater and greater. Of course, when refer- ence Is made to Lhe non-snecess of trotéimg meetings it is from a stand point similar vo that held by the Monmouth Park Association. At watering places they never have and never will prove remunerative, notwithstanding the outside attractions, In aome rural districts the case is different. Spirited men in. such places have banded together and caused the construction of superb tracks and elegant surroundings, and there snecess is attained. Such genuemen take their families and their friends to these meetings and are personally inierested in everything which appertains to their Driliant openings and continuances, because the greater portion Gf them are breeders, and conse- quently all more or lesa imterested in the develop ment of speed.

UTAR, SITUATION OF AFFAIRS I'l Feeling of the Orthodox Mormons Toward the Gentiles—Formation of a Loyal Liberal Party—Platform of Princi- ples—Opposition to Theoeracy and Polygamy—The Gen- tile Nominee for Dele- gate te Congress. Baur Lake Orry, U. T., Jaly 90, 1970, The leading saints supposed that if Congress failed to take concurrent action upon Mormon imat- ters during this sammer’s session they would fee! more secure in Utah than they have ever felt before. They thought they could overawe Gentiles and apos- tates now as they had done tn former years, This policy was pursued with reference to tue municipal election here a fow months ago, when a crowd of muscular Mormons, headed by 2 bishop, broke up a Political mesting calied to nominate candidates in opposition to those put forward by the Church authorities, Siuce the adjournment of Congress the occurrence of some unpleasant incidents has tended to produce the impression that a similar policy would fain be attempted now. Bat all the Mormons dare do is to show their animus, and that they often do. 1t would be futile for them to attemptany open outrage, by direct divine” au- thority, like some outrages Chat have disgraced their annais heretofore, This they know; for the effect of the completion‘of the raitroad to this city, the infux of strangers, the Increase of independence of thought and action among some of the saints themselves, together with the presence of troops and the dirm- ness of the few “opposition” residents, have ail combined to make # decided change ia the situation of aifairs within the last six -mosths. ‘The disaf fected Mormons and the Gentiles huve determmed to oppose the one man power with as stroug a will a3 the ove man power has wielded here; and it would seem that the Gentiles espectally, headea by federal oficiais, mean to show the Morinon leaders that though Congress has so far juiled to pass a bil mending matters here, the spirit of the Jntended Jegisiation Will be carried out 50 far as cireulustances will allow unt the government stall have ikea some new, determined and decisive course, A jew years ago an opposition independent party in Utah would not have been permitted to exist. After the compleiion of the raiiroud across the con- tinent the Gentite town of Cortune sprang ito ex- isteuce on ity line, and the sacred territory of the saints soon began to be pevimanentiy Inyaded by “barbartus,” Corinne is tie point of departore from the live of the ratiroad to tat Perritory of Mon- tana, and the Gentiles there have monopo.zed all the Montana trade which was formerly transacted In Salt Lake City by the Mormons, This is one re- suitof the presence of the Vacitic Railroad. Corinne is a lively, ora ast? Western town oi great pre- ventions and considerabie promise, and is a thorn in the side of the exclusive system of tie saints. ‘The eleciton jor Velegate to Congress takes place next week, and i View of that eveut a Gentile Uberal political party has, ch O ganized to coatest the election with’ the Olhureh | party and to regulate the balance of poltical power in Utah, Under the auspices of this organization the loyal and law-aviding Citizens im the different counties elected delegates to a general convention, ‘Lhe convention ussembled in Corimne, adopied a laiform of principles, uomina‘ed a’ candidate for Delegate lo Congress 2nd appointed a central com- mittee to conduct the canvitss aud attend w the general business of tie new liberal party. ‘The platform proclaims aualteruble Oppositien to any union of Church and State, aud to that system Whereby the rights of citizeus in a free republic have been ignored by an irresponsive priesthuod, und ue pokucal and temporal aifairs of the Territory made subservient toa Church Iierareiy. It declares the same unalterabie opposition to tlie doctrine of poty- gauy as taught and practised in this Lerriory wider ihe guise Of religion, as being iu conduct with the spu'tt of the age, contrary to good morals and pro- hibited by the jaws of the imud, and favors suca early achon by Congress 4s will suppress the growiug evi, and also the enactment of such measures as Will secure the enjorcement of the laws of the United States threaghout the lengti and breadth of the land, and especially in the Lerri- tory of Utah. It expresses Llial reverence for the constitution of the Oniied Stales, and Insists that te provisious of tbat constitution and the acis of Congress, as the supreme jaw of the nation, shail be respected and obeyed by all men, high or low, thronguout te whole republic; aud) while acknowleugig and tuiy appreciating the s: credness of the coustituitonag guarantee of tbe free exercise of religion, denies Wat chat yuarantes etther authorizes or protects (ae practice of polygamy or any other crime. It accords to ali peopie perfect freedom in religious matiers; but provesis arainst pracuices of the estabitshed Caurch in wing Intolerant, proscriptive and desir: the true prluciples of repuolican government; and asserts Wat that Chureh’s assumptions of wa mfall- ble priesihovd constitutes it a hierareny whieh, by usurping the guibority to direct in temporal matters, becomes a despotism subversive of every right and priviege of a people, Finally the platiorm matuiains that the inineral re- sources of this ‘Territory present an ampie tela for the energy and Industry of the people, and that the munes Of gold, silver, lead, iron, copper and coal need only the fosicring care of proper legislation to greatly advance tie interests of the Yerritory; and. While thus favoriug the development of the exten- sive mineral and agricultural sof Utah, ab the same time deprecates the ediorts of the ortho.tox. authorities to discourage tag development of the mines Of precious metals. ‘This platform received the unanimous assent of dL the Convention, Wich uiso as uuanimously pledge the suppori of the party to Governor Shaifer in the performance of lis duues aud the enforcement of the laws. General George R, Maxwell, who 1s at present residiag 1 Unis city, as Regisier of the United diales Land Onice for Uiah, is the Gentile nommee for deiegale to Congress in opposition to Captain Hooper, the present Mormon delegate, who bas been put forward by #righum Young for re-election. Political meetings have been held by the Gentiles in this city and In some of the otuer towns for the pur- pose of explaining the platform, euiogizing the genius of Atecrican insutuuons, proclalining loyally to the government and denouncing that system of theocratic usurpation winch crushes the spirit of human freedom and enchains the imtnds of the Mormons, It is singular to see such gatherings in Utah, The time has been when they would have been summarily suppressed. Sut now men whose blood has fowed on fieida of honor in defence of the fairfame of the republic, and men who in the civil service or in privaie life have proven their loyaliy to the government, have no idea cf being dictated (0 in Utalt by a sanguiuary set of disloyal and fanaticui Pharisees Whose secret and solemn oath binds thei to avenge the death ot Joseph Smith, who hoid upthe people and government of the United States as their “enemies,” and for whose destruction they pray with a fervor which 1s as merciess as it appears to be malignant Brigham Young said the other day im the Tabernacle that twenty years ago, when the Suints were at the Mis- sourl river ei route to Salt Lake valley, ne told an agent of the government, “If tue government of the United States huni us bero and aflict our Jamilles while we are gone to find an asylum for them, I will haunt them to the Jast day of my life so hetp me God.” Some of the federal oficials have taken an ucuve part in the present political canvass; in fact, the parly Was projected by the federal oflicfals, and General Maxweil” himself, whose distinguished services and honorable scars ave evidence of his devoted loyalty and valor, has been among the most Tearless in bis pubic denunciallons of the shameful anomaly, which would never have been so long allowed in any other country, ot a disioyal theocracy asserting lis superiority and its divine night to rule i the heart of the republic. With ali the machinery of the church in operation controlling the election, 118 not expected that the Gentle can- didate can be stccessful; but the inuoyation of the existence of a liberal party will Nave a present and a future good effect among ue people, Ido not think the lead imeinbers of the new movement take an active interest 12 savor of ihe liberal purty in this political contest, although Gen- eval Maxwell will receive the votes of many of the disaffected Mormons, The Gentiles and ihe new inovement men do not heartily aMilate, because the prominent jeaders of the schism are polygamists, and the Gentiles wish to be consistent. The new Movement 1s more Opposed to the rule of Brignam Young than it is to Mormonism as a re- ligious system. ‘The political principles and the de- velopment of the mineral resources which It adyo- cates are essentlally in accord with the piatiorm of the Gentiles, The bew movement men are ardent advocates of loyalty to the government. They do not preach polygamy, but those of them who were involved in it before the movement Was inaugurated still practise it; and im persisting in # practice which 13 opposed to existing laws the Geniltes think the Godbeites, as they are catled, are not sufii- ciently loyal and consistent. Still both see the absolute necessity for a reformation here in Utah, and de general principles there is between them considerable similarity of sentiment. Ata tea party and festival of the new movement people the otver evening the Gentiles were largely represented, and the whole com any heartily jotued im singiug the “star Spangled Banner.” Among the many distinguished visitors who late); came to make a short sojourn here is Major General Augur, accompanied by his daughters and a large party of ladies and gentlemen, consisting chiefly of miltary officers and members of their fame lies, General Augar came here en rowe to. Provo, some flity miles south of Sait Lake City, for the purpose of establishing a new military post. On the evening before his leparture for Provo one of the Gentile residents here gave a reception tn his honor, The military band from Camp Douglas was stationed in the garden, and the guests enjoyed themselves by dancing in the parlors and promenading in the grounds.
