The parade was magnificent; the military being the leadingfeatura The streets were crowded with living humanity, and the Tabernacle filled to its utmost capacity, demonstrat ing that a building holding 12,000 people could not accommodate 50,000.- Cannon-firing, horns toot in:;, whistles blowing, men and boys shouting, and everybody re joiqing was the order or disorder of the day.

Wells, in his inaugural address, in giving honor and credit to those, who in the past had endeavored to obtain statehood for Utah, should have neglected to even mention the gallant and suc cessful effoxts of the Hon. J. L. Rawlins', who, above all others is entitled to more credit, for having the. boon conferred, upon Utah. The governor, in his address, seemed to avoid even the mention of his name. If it was done through partisan jealousy, we say shame on such narrow bigotry. If it was due to an oversight, then we think it is inexcusable, as there was ecough transpired during the exer cises' at 'the tabernacle to have re minded the new governor, that it was largely due to the efforts of Mr. Rawlins, that the occasion of last Monday was possible. The people of all parties give J. L. "Rawlins the honor of being the successful advocate of local self- government for Utah, as was dem onstrated by the enthusiasm shown him on inauguration day.
