Ttis anticipated that the Denver & Rio Grando road willbo opened to Salt Lake City by Jauuary next. The farmers thr whosge lands the road runs have largely taken the ling contracts, and the work is being orously pushed. As far as Provo this line will almost parallel the Utah Cen- tral. T} e cenaus of Utah shows how largely her population occupies the farming districts, She has but four towns with a population of over 3,000, They are Salt Lake, £20,000; Ogden, 6,000; Provo and Logan not 4,000 h, Two-thirds of the population dwell in the northern one-third of the territory. South of that the settlements are small and farther apart. In Sanpeto val south of the aro a cluster population. » towns Mount Pleasunt, Tph and Manti are the most populous. At the last nmmed place the Mormon church is building o magnificent tem- ple, which will be sccond only to the ono in this city. 1t is of u beautiful French white or light-cream color sandatone, and is built on a projecting spar of the mountains, tihe top of which has beon leveled with immense labor to form a suitable site for this cdifice, in , about three years. temple at Logan, in Utah, will be completed next year.

Tts pleasant side shows business activity, unprecedented rvests, abundant labor, cheap money, and great internal improve- ments, espocially in public buildings and blocks of stores, On the other side we find a seasonof much sickness, with numerous deaths of e men and women, especially among the dignataries of the Mormon church aud numerous accidents, In political and religious controversies we are having a lull, possibly a calm before the storm.

The | Mormons have one strong hold on the business of the county; as a rule they are exceedingly prompt and ecrupu- lously honest in - meeting their finan- cial engagoments. To the wholesale dealer and manufacturer they arclarge and reliable customers, and those who have dealings with them are un- willing to have theso pleasant business relations brought to a snd- den end for sentimental or religious considerations, If a man promptly oays his debts it is of little momont to his creditor in New York, Ch , St Louis or Omaha, if he be miarried or single, if he have one wife or two, Such a condition may trouble the soul of Beecher, Talmage or Ingersoll for they make money by fantastic, polemi- cal disputations, but those whose busi- ness is in danger of being injured by their philippics are not so zealous in correcting other men’s religious ideas, or in stamping out unpopular social ethics. BLUYORD, — A Convention ef Coustitutionnlists Des Moines ¢ egab r Hon. Francis Springer, of Colum- bus City, who was President of the State Coustitutional Convention of 1857, has issued a call for a meeting of that body, to be held at Des Moines on Wednesday, January 19. That date will be the quarter centennial an- niversary of the meeting of the con- vention at Iowa Oity. The usually ac- curate Sioux City Journal is inadvert- ently misled into saying that compar- atively fow members of the convention now survive, but it will be seen by the following list of those who are cortain- ly alive, some of them in active busi- ness and others up to their eyes in pol- itics, that Towa is a State in which to live long B, G.

Olair Pilot, Now comes information that a con- apiracy has recently been uncarthed whereby cortain conl dealers in St Louis and the agents of a number of railroads running through the coal fields of Tllinois, had combined to limit the supply of coal going to St. Louis, thereby reap a speculative profit on prices, JIn view of these facts The Lincoln Journal buckles on its armor and goes forth to do battle for the canse of right. Hear it: “Ihe ponalty for a_ systom of rob- bery like this should bo the severest known to the criminal code, short of capital punishment. 'The man who stenls a lorse or who robs a bank cither as burglur or a cashior,2is o saint compared to the infornal rascal ing charge of the car supply of a ilroad who conspires with coal men, nmen, or any other commercial interest to run up the price of any necessary of lifo, by creating an arti- ficial and unnecessary scarcity, by pre- tending not to have, or absolutely re- fusing means for its transportation. ‘The Journal does not hesitate to say that any railroad whoso dircctors are found guilty of such a crime should be prometly confiseated and put into the hands of a receiver, in addition to the personal punishment that o public thief should undergo in the peniten- tiary.” Taoeso statements have about the right ring to them, and coming from the unapproachable altitude occupied by a State Journal-ist, gives them a forco and dignity heretofore consider- od unattainable. The Omaha Bk has said the same thing in substance many times, but the Journal and other monopoly papers saw nothing in the caso then but ‘‘the senscless vapori of a political demagogu difference is that the B aamo terms to our own roads, at a time when one of them, at least, was not obliged to formaconspir- acy with outside partics,but owning the coal fields themselves, sought to and did build up an exclusivejtrade of their own in that line, refusing (o others the privilege of shipping coal to towns in the yestern part of the state, und thereby oppressing and robbing the people—the very !fiiug against which, in Illinois, the Journal launches its thunderbolts. St. Louis is so situated that she can hardly bo doprived of competition, while the townsand cities along the U. P. railroad in this state were absolutely at the mercy of its managers, And when that company o‘ppruuml the people along its line in the matter of coal, and oven stared them in the face with a coal famine at the most inclement season of the year, we somohow fail to romember that the Journal opened its humanity-loving mouth in defense of the rights of the THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 16 1881. | thoughts long enough to refresh ou | perpetrators so much greater in Hlinois bo 4 e th or & nanagement of the U, P, road me other of the Journal's mono pets in Nebrask [.
