that have sprung up in the great West and
grown into populous cities and States since the
Mormon hegira from Nauvoo, where can one
be shown to have defed the United States
government, and to have treated its laws and
its public officials with the contempt and inso-
lence the Mormons have? On the contrary,
among the most loyal States in the Union, and
among those which sent into the field the
greatest armies during the struggle for our
national existence, are States in which the
earlier pioneers had to undergo as many
perils, hardships and privations In organizing
their communities, in subduing the forests and
the savage, and in impianting the seeds Of
tiOnai law, as ever the Mormons did
in erecting their Salt Lake empire and
in establishing in the heart of the nations
public domain a religious organization
the corner stone of which is dogma abhOr-
rent to modern civilization and in violation of
all the received rules of decent social and do
nestle life and society. Therefore the claims
Of these impertinent and rebellious Mormon
squatters for immunity from the operations of
the general laws of the country, on account of
the service they have rendered in improving
barren waste, but more properly in making
fortunes for themselves out of the Gentiles
and the government, are idle and ridiculous.
Greater hardships and more personal sacri-
Gees, we repeat, have been undergone by
settlers in other tracts of territory, now be-
come great and prosperous States, respecting
the laws and fighting for the national flag,
than ever these Mormon adventurers encoun-
tered from the time when old Joe Smith went
into the tablet business, after the manner of
Moses, aud founded the Mormon sect, up to
the moment of the conversation Brigham
above. They have no claims for political
sympathy, for immunity from legal response
bilities, nor for hardly the consideration paid
to other religious communities; for the odor
Of their saactity is FOUL and their moral prac-
tces are unlike those of all modern Christians
We say, therefore, to Brigham Young and his
deluded followers, that they had better accept
the sensible advice of Judge Trumbull, con-
suit with President Grant before they proceed
to extremities, accept the laws Of Congress in
regard to polygamy, as well as in regard to
everything else they are required to, and
either haul in their rebelious horns or prepare
to pack up their baggage for tramp to some
distant country outside the boundaries Of the
United States. You must obey the law, Pro-
phet Brigham, or you must march. Uncle
Sam has stood your nonsense long enough.
He will tolerate it no longer.

EicCt10n-p0VCThoF
Views.
The views of Mr. Walker, Governor elect
of Virginia, as given by him to a HERALD
reporter the other day in free conversation,
place the late Virginia election and it's results
In new light before the public. The Governor
says that the election was one of the very
fairest ever held in any State, and that as It
was held in strict conformity with the laws of
Congress and with the Presidents orders in
pursuance of the laws it cannot be impeached
But he says, too, that the result, though q
radical defeat, is not democratic victory
that seven-eighths Of the men who voted the
conservative ticket are as far removed from the
old Northern democracy on the one hand as
they are from radicalsm on the other; that
they want neither Of these parties; that in
accepting the situation they have rejected the
fatal lessons of the Northern democracy, as
taught them to their ruin, and that the Vir-
ginians at the same time have cut loose from
radicalism run wild.
Furthermore, says Governor Walker, he
started out on liberal republican platform,
and that this is the proper name Of his party
in virginia-liberal republican; that the Vir-
ginians are leaning this way; that demo-
cracy hath profted them nothing, and that
they know better than you can tell them
where their real interests lie. The
Governor says, too, that while General
Grant was all right in this contest
the conservatives were very earnestly opposed
by the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Postmaster General, and that their assistance
made the Wells party bold and confident.
The result, however, is that the loyal
leagues are breaking up, for the blacks
are deserving them and joining the liberal
Walker party.
The special points here given from Mr..
Walker are these THAT his party in Virginia
is an Independent party; that while opposed to
the ultra radicals it has nothing to do with the
Northern democracy, but desires to be recog-
nized as identified with General Grants
reconstruction policy, under the discretionary
powers given him in the laws of Congress.
The new Southern party, then, which has
come into power in Virginia is q new republi-
can party. It has, too, very fair prospect
for the possession of all the other Southern
States, which will give il an important balance
Of power in Congress and out of Congress
against the bgoted radical republican leaders
Of the North. But still, If the old Bourbon
democrats of Virginia have, under the Walker
banner, secured majority of the new State
Legislature, we suspect that Governor
Walker will have yet his hardest battle to
fight in order to establish the negro conces-
sions which he proclaimed in the late cam
paign as his party platform. The real
meaning of this late Virginia election can only
be reached through the new State Legislature,
which, under all the circumstances, Is open to
doubts and oonjectures.

Church, on the ground first that such offer Is Op

because it is entirely unfair and insufficient as just
