If the Mormons had not filled Utah, the territory would be far more advanced than it is now. A description of Mormon worship services. Colonel Johnston’s expedition was a failure. A description of Colonel Conner and the California volunteers. Mormons who were serfs in the Old World are now slaves in the New. The Mormons are trying to use money to change public opinion about them. A description of the approach to Salt Lake through Weber Canyon, of Ogden, of the railroads, and of the Great Salt Lake. Utah will be a great state when the Mormons leave. It is said that the older Mormons will give up their wives to have land and railroads.
