Silva, the Portland capitalist, who has just returned to the metropolis, said, that after the close of the war of the rebellion, he found himself in Utah, and at a time when Brigham Young was in the enith of his power, in the Mormon church and out of it; and being in a condition that made him, Captain Silva, receptive of most any sort of work, he was pleased when President Grant recognized him and made him registrar of the federal land office for that district, with headquarters at Salt Lake. One of the first problems that pre sented itself was offered by the great Mormon apostle himself, who, one day walked into the land office,, at the ead of a gang of 40 filthy Indians, and presented a list of sections on which the readskins desired to make formal entry. Captain Silva, with the instincts of n honest man and officer, promptly turned Brigham Young and his 40 stool-pigeons down and absolutely refused every single entry, though Young argued long and well in favor of their American status, claiming they had all renounced their tribal relations and were amenable to the privilege sought; but the captain held out and barred the whole outfit. He made an elaborate report, to Washington, stating frankly all facts and reasons, suspicions and possi bilities of fraud, and in due course of time received an explicit, terse and mandatory letter from the Depart metn directing him to enter the last one of the O proteges Young had in troduced, all of which he did, and then stayed in the office long enough to see the last fraction of the land, fter it had been duly patented to the redskins, pass swiftly to the "power behind the throne" in Mormondom. The capital was never blamed; nor were any reasons given him for turn ing down his report; it was simply a case of the sheer influence of Brig ham Young, ' whose saintliness did not stand in the way of his swindling the government and people out of normous land values.
