What is Left Out of the Platform!

In it's days of pride and power the
Democratic party was very bold aud de-
fiani in it's utterabces. its enuuciatohs,

couched in such resolute and uneQuiviocal
words. and stated with such All air of
pesi;iveness aud energy, as To give ihem

come over the spirit oil that ouce power

to butt its head against a granite wall of

THE SAENGERFEST.

This great ociaI and musical
festival has enjoyed q complete
success this month at Cincinn att.
Thousands of German and Amer
lean citizens fiocked to the Halles
Of that city, and met with a welcome
WHICH might have cl ecred the heart
Of the most gloomy misanthrope.
We are glad To see these days of
social enjoyment and public gather

worked and money getting PEOPLE
just such recreation as day of fes-
tlyal cnjoyn ent sfoIdse is
needed. Business and politics
so fill the American mind that, in
process of time, il becomes warped
by pursuing almost exclusively one
train of thought {; the heart also
becomes hardened and cold, unfit
ted to enjoy the real happiness of
social converse, music and home.
The Germans carry out their
ideas OF social life in this country
rs in the FatlIerland, thus making
the adopted land more pleasant ard
cndearing. We never yet have seen

Fatherland, its music and literature
and the more this country becomes
10 them like their native land, TIE
more will they love it. Many
Americans have of late, united Will
the Germans in the exercises of the
Saens erfest. We hope the number
will increase uutil this day shall be-
come as truly an American as it is
now German pleasure day.
There are, doubtless, oceanic
quantities of lager consumed dur
ring these carnivals; but we con-
slider this gain on American poor
whiskey, by as much as lager is less
harmful than whiskey; and OF two
evils we always choose the least;
and aside from the consumption of
this drink, we cannot but regard the
German Saengerfest as n welcome
guest upoL our shores. We believe
in all that tends to unite and render
a nation prosperous and happy:
Nothing contributes more to
this than gatherings for mutual en-
joyment, seasons Of mirth and mu

animosities; where old friends can

BIGAMY AND POLYGAMY.

BIGdW AND IOLI L GAM 4.
In this country bi gamy is and always has been
a crime under our law. What is bigamy?
Having at one time two husbands or two
wives. Polygamy is the act or custom of
having more than one wife or more than one
husband at the same time.
This act has never been O lawful one in the
United States; consequently this custom has
follows, We think, that no such license could
have been contemplated in the first amend
ment to the Constitution, which says-"Con-
gress shall make no law respecting an esta-
blishment of religion or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof" etc., etc.
No such right was claimed at the time of
it's adoption as that man, under the plea of
religion, could claim exemption from the
crime of bigamy. If, then, bigamy has been
a crime under our laws, both before and since
the adoption of the first amendment, this law
was not abrogated by it.
We take the broad ground that no act
known to the law as crime, when this part
of our Constitution was adopted, was or can
be abrogated by it, and, therefore, that the
plea of exemption from any crime because it
is part of religion will not stand. We
say, further, that it would be direct "esta-
blishment of religion" to admit the Mormons
as a sovereign State, or any other religious
sect as sovereign State therefore we con-
clude that Congress has the power 'to pro-
vide for the general welfare of the United
States, to dispose of, and make all needful
rules and regulations respecting the terri
tory, or other property belonging to the
United States (see art. 4, section 3,
paragraph p, and power to punish for this
or any crime committed within the terri
tories, Notwithstanding the plea that it is
allowed by and part of religion.
