T!i<-y Hot Forth Their Griev»ncen, aad A>k for Betlreas. [By Telegraph.] Salt Lake, May 2d. — The mass meeting this afternoon at the Mormorn Tabernacle for adopting a protest to President Cleve land and tlie nation against the present crusade by Federal officials in Utah drew ■ an immense audience. John' T. Caiue, member of Congress for Utah, was Chair man. Hi.s speech outlined the general his tory of the Mormon people from the or ganization of the church to the present. Alter asserting the loyalty 'of the people all through their history, he referred to the abuses imposed on them by Federal officials appointed to Utah, assisted by office-seekers whose object is apparently to so influence public opinion outside of Utah that laws should be passed and measures taken to ' oppress the Mormons. The speaker claimed it was the duty of the people to protest against the present crusade existing here. A protest, of which the following is an abstract, was presented and unanimously adopted as (he sense of the met tins: 7.) th(. President and l\»i,>, of the United State* — i Fellow-Citizens : A condition of affairs im perilling the vital interests of the vast majority of the people of Utah and their co-relh;ioni*is in the neighboring states and Territories impels us, their representatives, to address you. We are unpopular with our fellow-countrymen; it is our religion which makes us so. As to our j religions faith, it is based upon evidence which ! to our minds is conclusive: convictions not to ; lie destroyed by legislative enactments or judi- I cial decisions. Among the principles of our re : | ligion is that of immediate revelation trom God. One of the doctrines bo revealed Is celestial or p oral marriage, for which ostensibly, we are stigmatized and hated. This is a vital part Of our religion, the decisions of Courts to the con trary notwithstanding. Polygamy, as under stood among the occidental nations, is a system ' of sensuality. But the Latter-Day Saints be lieve that the marriage relation is one which, ! when properly solemnized lure, exists in eiern ' ity. Every faithful v.onwn in the church be : lieves that in order to insure her exaltation in the presence of God on i the Lantb, she should bo married or sealed to an upright, f.iiuiiul mall. They firmly believe that <k>d hat re vcnled this tv them as a command, but while patriarchal marriage, as it is termed, is a part ol their iaith and practice, they have no idea : that it should beeooiG universal. At the same time we fully believe that women should be married, even if two or three of them come the wives of one man. Plural marriage was publicly proclaimed a doctrine of the church in 1832. Congress di clared it a crime in lSi!2, but the law enacted ••.(,'iun^t ii remained for seventeen years a dead letter, thi Federal officials hesitating to enforce it, v* if ihi'y doubted Its Constitutionality. Pln i ral marriage, therefore, was openly : ::.-!-.t and practiced ten years fore any law existed 'I against it. All through iur history the general i (lovonnneiit as seemed to regard us less as loyal American citizens than us a dangerous i alien element. The authorities at Washington have disre ; garded our rights in the matter of local self government; a Territorial Government is not a republican Institution, but for thirty-five years we nave been compelled to accept the colonial conditions which tl imposes. II hos been the nndeviating policy to send strangers Into our midst as Governors," Judges, Prosecuting Attorneys and Marsha!-:, men who, with honorable fsceptions, had do inter. : in the common welfare. We complain iot only of] the personal character of these official*, and that they have acted the part of petty despots I among us, luit we also complain of<repeatvd i manifestations of ill-feeling from the parent i Government. Our numerous petitions, protests and memori ! als in our own defense have bcea usually passed I over unnoticed. The Commissioners appointed under the Edmund ; law have grossly bus* d the authority con furred upon them; They .'. ciously formulated an unauthorized an illegal . expurfratorr test oath, and required each elec tor in the Territory to take it before be could I register or vote. They have arbitrarily assumed Ito exercise legislative powers. They have pre sumed to exercise the highest order of judicial ■■ j authority, by declaring void Acts of the Legis i lathe Assembly of the Territory of I'tuli. They ) have constituted themselves a Supremo Tri '; bunal for the determination of all matters in the Territory pertaining to elections and the . qualifications of voters. They have grossly abused their authority in the- appointment of registration officers ■" by ; selecting for such positions, whenever possible, only such persons as belong to the anti-Mormon faction. They have assumed to be charged, as the representatives of the Federal Government here, with the duty of suppressing polygamy. The Governors of Utah, possessing absolute veto : power, have usually been despotic in their iniu j isteri^'.i acts. The present Governor, especially, : has acted the part of a petty tyrant. He has ' accused us of a lack of interest in educational I matters. The Edmunds law, which not only j - provides for the punishment of polygamy, but I also cohabitation with more than one woman, I whether in the marriage relation outside of it, is made to operate upon one class of people j only— the Mormons. The non-Mormon who violates this law walks the streets in open day. , These are some of our grievances. Now hear our protest : We protest against unfair trvutmcut on the part of the general Government. We protest against a continuance of Territorial bondage, subversive of the rights of freemen and con • inuy to the spirit of American institutions. We j protest against special legislation, the result of I popular prejudice and religions Interference. We protect against the conscien c of one class of citizen' ' ■ A:.; made the criterion by which to : judge another. We protest against the tyranny of Federal officials, and the continuance in I office of men who disgrace their positions and use their official powers >:' a means of op; rts \ sion. We fi'otesl against the partial admin is; ra tion of the Edmunds law — punish; " : " "uc class for practising their religion tend exempt ing from prosecution the votaries of UiM and \ crime. We protest against the I'ri'aMuff'np of I family relations formed previous to i!ie pas-aue lot the Edmunds law, andthe depriving of wom en and children ol the support and protection of their husbands and lathers. We protest against the prosecution of persons, many of whom are infirm and aged, who entered into plural marriage before it was declared a crime and have never violated any law. We respect fully ns-i; for the appointment by the President | of a commission to fairly and thoroughly mi i vestigate the Utah situation : and pending its I ropc-t we, solemnly protest against the continu ance of this merciless crusade. A delegation was appointed to proceed to I Washington and precent the petition and ; resolution to President Cleveland. Meet- j ' ings of a similar nature, indorsing the same I protest, were held in all largo towns in Utah ami in the Mormon tabernacles in Idaho and Arizona this afternoon. Bbidging utE — United States Consul Merrill, at Jerusalem, reports that during the past summer an attempt has been made to build a bridge over the Jor dan at Jeriiho. It has progressed slowly^ however, as the lumber furnished hail to be brought from Europe and carried on the backs of camels from the port of Jaffa to the river. Th« Consul BQgeeststhat there might be some, market in Palestine for American lumber, as tlia Austrian and Turkish lum- ' ber now used there is of poor quality and I high priced, but the country is probably ! too poor to make much of a market for anything at present; the whole yearly im j ports at Jaffa, which is the Mediterranean seaport for Jerusalem, amount to only ; about $aK>,oQo.— [American Railroad Jour- 1 I nal.

Hut hold the same sheet of paper over the vapor of mercury, and the metal it received in the former operation: will be brought out in dark tints. Several sur j prising effects may be produced by utilising j that fact. If the experiment be reversed I not less maivelous results may be obtained. First expose a drawing or writing to the. gases of mercury to charge the lines with mercury. Then bring the drawing or writ ing in contact with a paper previously sen sitized with a solution of "platinum, and the drawing or writing will be reproduced upon it line for line. . — _» m What the Railway.-. — To-day the railways are moving more than 15,000.000 tons of farm products from the Far West to markets in the Eastern States.

At 05 cents per LOO pounds, the rate in January, iB6O, or $i;> a ton. the cost of moving the same freight would have been $195,000,000. By the development of the railway system $135,000,000 yearly has t'«'»» preaentcti to the producers of the west and the consumers of the East, to bo divided between them. That is about $10 a year for every inhabitant of the great wheat growing Btates.-r-[B. R. Jonrnal.
