ly did over imaginary wrongs of Lo.
the poor African The Government
does not seem troubled greatly on the
subject, and may not interfere, as the
morals of Salt Lake City are fully
as good as those Of Washington
and when old Brigham dies it is
likely that quite q number Of regular
politicians will be found seeking his
place. But If the Government fail to
treat polygamy as violation of all law,
human and divine, public sentiment
and the influx of Gentiles will sooner or
later break up the institution. The
young men who go West in these days
are not, as rule, very much addicted to
matrimony. In the States very few Of
them can make up their minds to marry
one woman, but in Utah, where the article
is so scarce, they may take to it with q
sharper appetite. The Mormons are
doomed, for they violate the plainest laws
of nature, but unless the Government
strike them down, they may prosper many
years in their mountain Businesses and
beautiful valleys. But the time will come
when their vile practices will be pun
ished with death, and the innocent will
be protected.

During the last and the present year,
to the 18th of this month, the solar spots
have been unusually numerous. There
is now near the eastern limb of the sun
a group of spots, the largest being above
five thousand miles in diameter. Some
times when the sun appears of a deep
red color, spots have been seen with the
naked eye. Whirlwinds cause the spots
to rotate; sometimes they move with
velocity of three hundred and sixty. three
feet per second. In June. l843, spot
having diameter of 1900 miles was
visible. In August. 1889, spot had
surface of 25,000,O0O, 900 square miles.
On April 26, 1916. spots to the number
of two hundred were counted. -New

earn CANDIDATEs,

Gen. Stokes is in favor of State Con-
yention in October, and Governor Senter
is also committed unequivocally to q
convention. Stokes would no doubt
call convention if it suited him to do 500
but be is a man of strong mental reserva-
tions-witncss, for instance, the Duncan
letter. Shortly after that was written he
had new revelation, as Brigham Young
sftap does, to suit the emergency, and
promptly a0ost-faeed from the Confsder-
acy and took the other end Of the road.
On one occasion Mshomet had revela=
ton shieh required his followers to wash
their bodies every morning 10 cold water.
Afterwards, on Q long march at the
head of an immense army, in trackless
desert, his people complained that they
could not comply with the law. That
night Mahomet had another revelation,
which psrmitted the faithful to rub them
selves down vith sand instsed Of water.
And thus the "bald eagle" ifeleoted Gov
ernor and not supported by Republican
LEGISLATURE, would find reasons for
changing bis mind, and before October
be trying to .hsog ssHd in the peoples
eyes. Sweet William, II elected Gov
ernor, would be master Of the situation,
and would not compromise on anything
short Of 0 seat in the United States
Senate. But as be will be defeated by

occurring What be would do if elected.

THE KU.KLux GARD.

Less than year ago the Radicals made
thousands of votes in the North by
making the people believe that the South
was overruu and controlled by an imagi
nary organization called the Ku-Klux
This was big card last year, but twill
not win this fall. The people have found
out that there is nothing in it, and even
the negroes fail to be led or excited by
stories of the ghostly khan. Asa party,
the Radicals have abandoned the Ku-
Klux cry. But some of them who saw how
we'll it worked last year are at it again.
Yesterday morning it was published
among telegraphic news that four negroes
had been killed by yelled horsemen in
Middle Tennessee. The minute particu.
lars were given, so that there could not
be q doubt of it. 1t was stated that the
murdered men had just finished some
work and had trihe Of money coming
to them, leaving the inference to be
drawn that the men who owed them COM
mitted the deed, or had it done as mat
ter of economy. The four were killed
and laid out in a row, and we're counted
by a reliable contraband, who gave the
information. Under other circum-
stances It would be good time
to call out the militia, but as the
Stokes wing oppose that institution, from
a distasts acquired by taking too much
of L at one time, they merely cry out
Ku-Klux, and telegraph North for SYM
pathy. 1t will not pay. The negroes
we're not even killed and if they were,
it would hardly be believed after so many
false stories of similar nature have been
told. Yesterdays telegram proved to be
without any foundation whatever. 1t
was told by an idle Radical negro who
was trained to the business, and supposed
that good murder, as he called it, would
be highly acceptable to the party. Moth
ing will save the Stokes party; but like
fish in shallow puddle, they do not in
tend to die without a splitter.

Msjor Melrose, of Chicago, an officer
of the late Cuban expedition, reports that
Colonel Ryan and Lieutenant-C Colonel
Currier left GARDENERS Island on Sunday

1t is stated that large vessel recently
left Baltimore with $4,000 stands of arms
and 100000 rounds of ammunition for

protesting to be loaded with hay, and
reached her destination successfully. 1t

A Washington dispatch says: Infor-
nation at the Internal Revenue Bureau
from New York to-day is of an encour-
aging character, so far as the collection
of income tax is concerned. 1t appears
that assessors and collectors find the
business of the year in this respect, which
they supposed had been finished, active
as ever, numbers of gentlemen who now
find that they have taxable incomes and
who are DESTROYS to pay income tax
being counted by thousands.
1t has been reported that the Fenian
Halpine, now imprisoned in England,
will soon be released. Government has
not received any late advices regarding
his case, but Secretary Fish ordered
Motley to renew efforts for his
release, which were abandoned when
Reverdy johnson was relieved.

but when in the discharge Of con
scientious duty to the public we lash
rascal with whip of scorpions until ne
appeals through the courts for public
sympathy, we are ready to hold ourselves
strictly responsible.
Some days ago we published an article
headed " scandal" which was quite gen.
orally read and copied. No name was
mentioned, but the case fit man in
Nashville so tight that he made himself
known BY denouncing the entire article
as false. If it were false in every par
ticular it could not hurt him, because he
was not mentioned, and there could be no
application. But somebody is hurt, and
somebody is about to lose situation.
The sum and substance of our article
was that married man Of Nashville had
courted young lady in Memphis as a
single man, and became engaged to
marry her. In some minor details we
have been slightly incorrect, but the
main points we can prove in court, II
necessary, and we stand by them. A Mr..
Cady in Nashville thinks he is the man
meant. Perhaps he is; but that is bis
fault, not ours. We know our bounds rs
a journalist, and when an impostor comes
along, as in this instance, and like
serpent seeks to destroy that which he
cannot legally possess, it is within our
province to hold him up to public scorn.
This il what we have done in the
present instance, to the best of our know
ledge and belief and the mere assertion
of Mr.. Csdy through Nashville paper is
no proof to the contrary. This individual
has instructed a prominent law firm in
our city to proceed against us for dam
ages to his precious character ITO the
fullest extent of the law" If he is the
man let him come. We will prove much
more than he will want to hear, and will
publish that also. If he thinks that few
bushels of our boarded shinplasters will
make gentleman of him he is mistaken;
and if be thinks whole quilt of green
backs will mend the rents in his charac-
ter he is welcome to all he can get. The
law firm alluded to have the case under
consideration. They have our sympa-
thies.

A GLImPsK OF THE MORMONs.


Nov that the Pacific railroad is COM
pleted and the Mormon territory is &C
cessible to the army, If not 10 the gun
boats, it might be expected that the Gov
eminent would turn its attention to the
suppression Of polygamy. This has
been denounced often in the balls Of
Congress as a twin sister to slavery, q
blot on the map of the United States and
a disgrace to the American name. Brig
ham Young never expected to hear the
snort Of the iron horse in his dominions
until short time before the long railroad
trains were sweeping past him without
paying toll or asking his leave. The
Prophet has q good opinion Of himself,

pie in his territory, and sets himself up

been sent there before that il they came
again they would se required to leave the
territory. One of the Senators in the
party told him plainly that the laws and
the Constitution would be strictly &c.
forced in all parts of the country, and
that Utah could not be made an exception.
Brigham held to his position firmly, and
it is likely that, If necessary, he will fight
to the death to perpetuate the sensual
system which he has established
The Government has plenty Of
