MORMON ANATHEMAs.-The anathemas
Of the Mormon Church are hurled at
Judge Mexican for refusing to naturalize
polygamists. The other day the Judge
disposed OF the application OF Mormon
who had turned of one OF his wives be-
cause she had grown old. and left her to
work as cattle-herder for subsistence.
The Judge said: II do not believe the
man who treats women that way will
make good citizen. You committed q
crime against the laws of this country,
as well as against your wife. In your
own country you would have been sent
to the penitentiary, and you have no
right to come here and practice crime
and expect citizenship.

"OuR SISTER RrprB11c. The MAJ,

..OuR SISTER REprBIIc. The Maz,
ilan correspondent Of the Bulletin gives
the following account Of despotism prac-
ticed by the Governor Of Sinaloa, Mex.
leo: 81
Governor Buelna continues to rule the
State with an iron hand. doing exactly
what he pleases without caring for the
existing laws. Not less than seventeen
men have been shot by his orders after
sham trial, under the pretext that they
were connected with the late revolution.
and among these are Tiburcio Sancedo,
formerly partner Of Manuel Hidalgo,
and one Carbsjal, n former friend of ex-
Governor Rub. The worst feature OF
this butchery is that the death penalty
has been abolished in this State and that
all political offenses had been pardoned
by the President amnesty. On the
other side the Governor protects the real
criminals, allowing some to escape and
others not to be- pursued. 1t is further
apparent that the members OF the L-gis-
lature are doing the Governors bidding,
because they refused 10 Andres l.. Ia
pia a seat in Congress, this excellent law
yer being known to belong to the opposi-
ton. Though Mr.. Tapia protested, this
won't help him in spite Of his legal cleo
ton.
The same letter further says:
The Federal troops hitherto stationed
at Tepli have returned to Guadalajara.
and the court-martial trying the Lozada
prisoners had finished its work. No
further executions have taken place, but
81 of said prisoners have been banished
to Yucatan and taken there. The report
says that the most innocent of this loi
had killed at least three and kidnapped
ten persons, so that they got off very
cheap.

its principal members-since dead-to
bring about the repeal; and, the repeal
having been secured, demanded SO, 600

repeal was accomplished chiefly by him.

THE excavations and discoveries by
Herr >chliemann on the site of ancient
Troy have attracted much attention, and
few are unaware of the alleged discovery
o. the very ornaments and regalia of
Priam. A letter from Athens casts
doubt, not upon the discoveries, but
upon Herr Schliemann's Interpretation
of them. Many of us, no doubt, have
considered that it was hardly likely the
substructions were labeled Troy" or
that the gold ornaments bore the name Of
Pliam or Hecuba. This writer scouts
altogether der game trojanische Spuk;"
says that the localities do not correspond
at all with Homers descriptions; and
that the objects of art mostly belong to a
later period, probably not before the
time of the Diadochi. Another para.
graph in the same number speaks of the
German enterprise for excavations a,
Olympia, where valuable remains must
exist, as it was for centuries the great
repertory OF works OF Grecan art, and
very little has been attempted there in
modern times. The foundations of the
temple Of Genus, discovered by the
French in 1929, will afford sure starting
point.

DowS WITH THE BRAKEs.-The Sec

DowN WITH THE BRAKEs,-The Secre-
tary of the Treasury explains to Congress
that the public debt was increased So
900. 900 during the month of November,
and that there will be an increase of ten
TO twelve millions in December. He
calls on Congress to increase the taxes to
the extent of S42, 900, 900. and declares
that the alternative is a new loan for that
amount. Commenting on this state OF
affairs, the Sacramento Union says;
Yet in the face of this sad showing by
the Treasury Department, the Secretary
of the Navy has the assurance to call on
Congress for au increase of the naval
force to the extent OF twenty-five per
cent. in the number of enlisted men-
from 5000 to 5000; and for an extra APP
preparation of 81 900 600 to keep up that
arm of the Government; when. in fact,
there should be a reduction of its ex-
penses to the extent of 100000. We
are at peace with all the world, and since
the settlement of the Nirginius affair with
Spain, there is not speck of war as big
as q mans hand anywhere visible. The
country will be glad to learn that this
proposed increase of expenditures meets
with obstinate resistance from Sherman,
Chairman of the Senate Finance Com
mittee, and from the Chairmen of the
House Ways and Means and Appropria-
ton committees. Senator Sherman has
for years been the advocate of high taxes
and a strong Government" We have
often taken occasion to point out this
weakness in his character with censure,
and it now gives us much satisfaction to
see that he has changed ground. He has
discovered that his course has run coun-
ter to the will of the people aid he hast
ems TO correct it, He declares that he
will oppose this and all other useless and
wastetul expenditures, and with such OPP
position in the two houses there is not
much danger that the Secretary of the
Navy will have his extravagant way at
this session, albeit he has secured already
the extra $4,000, 900 demanded for the
fitting out Of vessels since the fare-up
with Spain From this time forward
Congress will put down the brakes.
