Hon. q. W. KENDALL.-The Washing
ton D. G. Gazette thus speaks of the
gentleman named: The Liberal Repub-
licans of the Silver State have shown
wisdom in renominating their present
efficient and industrious Representative
in Congress for the next term. He has
established record in the House deserv-
ing this recognition, and we hope the
people of his State will ignore party con-
siderations by returning him to his pres
ent field of usefulness with an overwhelm-
ing majority. Mr.. X. reflects honor on
his State, and has made hosts of friends
in this city.

A WARNING TO PHILIP KLINGEN
SMITH.

SALT LAKE City, Oct. /, 1872.
Mr.. PAT. HoLLAND--Dear Sir: As you
will probably know the whereabouts of
Smith, who made the celebrated affidavit
respecting the Mountain Meadows mas
sacre, l wish you would caution him
about man named Springmyer, alias
McFarlane, alias Mcpherson, alias Mis-
souri, Bill, who is reported to me to be in
Nevada for the purpose of making way
with Smith. When last heard from he
was in Eureka. He is 5 feet 6 or
inches high; rather roundheaded; 35 to
80 years of age; blue eyes; brown hair;
nervous and disconnected in his talk ;
fond OF telling his Indian adventures, and
easily pumped. The Mormons here say
he has gone to fix Smith, and they brag
that the affidavit will never do any good,
as he will never testify l have reason,
good reason, to believe that Mr.. Smith
should take more than ordinary care of
his person. Will you see that he gets a
hint?
The above is not intended for sensa-
tional item, but is undoubtedly well
founded. The writer is personally known
to us as gentleman whose facilities for
obtaining reliable information of that
character are unsurpassed by those of
any other individual in Utah Territory
That there is a movement on foot to as
sassinate Mr.. Smith we have not the
least doubt, and it behooves him to be
vigilant if he desires to defeat it. Any
one having lived among the Mormons as
long as Smith has ought to know that
his life is in danger, and govern himself
accordingly. The best thing that Mr.
Smith can do for himself and the Gov.
eminent is to so at once to Salt Lake
City and place himself under the protec.
ton of Gen. Morrow, at Camp Douglas
We hope that some of Mr.. Smiths friends
will cut this article from the paper and
forward it to him as soon as possible.

ADv1cEs from Washington say
that the friends of the third party
movement are quite discouraged by
the reports from the country
brought by returning members Of
Congress. The Democrats in Con-
gress are also reported as turning
the cold shoulder to the passive
and "possum" policy, looking on it
with increasing disfavor. In the
meantime the dogma seems to be
getting some substantial support in
Missouri, the place of its inception.
The State Democratic Committee,
after full discussion Of its merits,
have resolved to prepare an address
setting forth the result Of the last
campaign in that State and recon-
mending strongly that no policy be
adopted by the national Democratic
party in the campaign of 1872
This all comes Of the Missouri De-
mocracy, unlike their brethren in
Iowa, having no faithful sentinel
like John Irish on guard, who shall
at stated intervals, Issue bulletins
of the health Of the "grand old par
ty," assuring the faithful that it is
yet living. Those fellows down in
Missouri evidently believe the old
things ':eyes are sot," and are ac-
cordingly casting about for some
thing with life in it to tie to.

the sensational statement that the

of official relations with Russia,
send the Russian Minister his pass

Mr.. Allison's Integrity.

Mr.. J. L. McCreery who for some
time previous to his acceptance of
his present position on the editorial
staff Of the Dubuque Times held
intimate personal relations to MIR.
Allisons and had the best possible
means of arriving at a just estimate
of his character, thus bears testi-
mony to the incompatible integrity
of his public and private life. The
extract was written since the NOM
nation Of Mr.. Allison, as Senator.
and gives partial revelation of
record of which any. public man
may we'll be proud:
AS we look back over the years
when nearly all of his official and
social correspondence - and for
months when he was in California
and we in Iowa, and at other times
when he was absent from Dubuque
or from Washington, all of it.
passed under our eye, we do. not
recollect a line sent or received by
him that it would not be an honor to
him to print. We remember epistles
from Iowa editors DESTROYS to "bor-
row" money to enable them to
unmortgage their presses so they
could support HIM for Senator,
which otherwise they would not be
$50 situated that they could do. The
loans were not made. We remcm-
Der $500 checks sent him with the
hopes expressed that he would be
able to vote for reduction of tax
alton on certain articles which we
happened to know he had long
before concluded it was public
policy that the taxation should be
reduced upon. The money was not
kept: We have had placed in our
hands, by parties in Washington
who perceived our intimacy with
Mr.. Allison, at least one note for
$500 due him one day after the date
of the passage of certain bill.
The bill may have passed, but the
money never did. We have found,
in rummaging among his old letters,
one proposition at least from a
Chem postmaster in this District
proposing, if he could be retained
in Office through Grants admins
tration, to give Mr.. Allison the first
years postal receipts in full. We
also found that his successor was
promptly appointed. We could re-
cord innumerable deeds ofkindness
performed in behalf Of persons
perhaps Of other States, necessita
ting the expenditure of time and
trouble and money, for which it was
from the nature of the cases impos
siblc that he should receive any
direct or Indirect recompense either
in cash or influence. These arc
but SO many instances out o.
hundreds that we might mention
and we hesitate to mention these
lest it should be, or be deemed, ou
oftaste. But we feel like explain
ing ho,c it is that we knoao Mr.
| Allison to benot only not dishonest
but governed by high principles
and generous impulses.

Gov. Merrill's last messsagswill

Gov. Merrill's last message will
be found on our outside pages this
week. It is lengthy but not dry.
It sets forth with more cxplicitnsss
and PARTICULARLY than is usually
found in papers of the Kind, the
condition of our State in regard to
her financial, educational, charita-
bic and reformatory interests and
institutions, and abounds with many
sound and practical suggestions re-
garding needed changes in our laws.
The recommendation with regard
to the repeal of the railroad tax
law is, we think, . correct express
sion of the wish Of the mass Of the
people of the State. Whatever may
be the opinion regarding the gene
raj policy Of extending aid to rail-
roads, there are certainly very
strong objections to this manner OF
doing it. The changes proposed in
the school law, although they may
strike many as radical and revolu-
tionary, still have the endorsement
of many of the best educational men
Of the State, and II adopted would
no doubt, ultimately condace to the
greater efficiency, and more perfect
working Of our educational system.
So of the suggestions with regard
to railroads, the abolition Of the
grand jury, changes in the road
laws; all merit and will no doubt
receive the careful consideration of
the Legislature.
It is proper in taking leave Of
Gov. Merrill that we should add
our mite Of commentator to that
which is being accorded to him on
all handsfor his efficient administra.
ton of our State affairs during thelast
four years. Iowa never had . Gov
ernor more faithful or conscientious
in the performance of every duty,
and assuredly none ever vacated the
executive position leaving tho State
in more prosperous condition, or
making more rapid strides toward
greatness. .....t

SCHOOL REPoRT.-Tcachers will re-
member that in our Roll of Honor we
publish only the names Of pupils who
have been both prompt and regular in
attendance. Regarding irregular and
tardy attendance as serious drawbacks
to the progress of our schools, We made
the offer of publication, thinking that it
might assist teachers in their efforts to
check these evils, and we are glad to
know that, in some schools al least, this
is acting as quite stimulus. But we
cannot publish the names Of pupils who
happen to be prompt when they do at
tend; nor of those who attend every day
but stagglc in sometime during the fore
noon. Our friends will also excuse us
for declining to publish extended reports
of the condition of their schools. We
should be pleased, indeed, to give these
reports, but for want Of space, must ex.
clude them.
