claimed that he would not he stultilied

and Kisses he ut length got under way
and poured his vials OF wrath on the
Woman Suffrage movement IN general

particular He identified Tree love with

sible. DR.. Haven spoke briefly ON the
other side. and Mrs. b. was by vote nj.

fortunate that 50 many hobbies are trotlec

T1co Important arrests.

The past week has been noted for the
arrest OF two representative men in the
nation--both high in power, charged with
a violation of the laws of the land, and
each feeling safe from the laws reach,
claiming to be entrenehed in the protect
ing power of their dupes. We refer to
Mayor Hall of New York City and Brig
ham Young. The former obeys the sum-
mons of the court, not by accompany
ing an officer, but in his private carriage,
and addresses the court in club room
speech, and valves an examination very
graciously as il he was doing service
TO the ends of Justice. He feels safe in
the hands OF the Grand Jury, who have
been packed in his behalf; and deiies the
prosecuting officer. and says bill can.
not be found against him.
Brigham Young pleads sickness, and is
excused for few days, pretending that
he is ready for judicial investigation
INTO his conduct He. with others, has
been indicted for bigamy. In the mean
time the Mormons are getting excited
and are threatening vengeance upon the
United States authorities. Whether the
law will be indicated in either OF these
cases, remains to be seen. II it fails IN
either case, our institutions may receive
greater shock than rebellion gave them.
Let Us hope for tho best.
