We KNOW IT.

Mr.. Newsom, who so stoutly denied
any intention of withdrawal from the
Temperance Alliance, nothwithstand-
ing the attempts of the recalcitrant
Wooden to inveigle him into the camp
Of secession, writes us some rich revela-
tions, CLEANED from a visit to the enc
my's camp. He says: "As fast as the
truth can leak out, every bolter is found
to have seeded from the Alliance be-
cause you were voted in as Delegate at
Largeu
Well, brother n, the National disor-
ganizers acted on precisely the same i'm
pulse when they seeded after Mr.. Lin
coins election. 1t is the old fight Of
might against right, error against truth,
oppression against freedom, and in such
conflicts the right will win.
81 tell you," continues our brother,
'that the movements OF these bolters
have done you more real good, and
the noble cause for which you labor, rs
well as the cause of the State Temper
ance Alliance, than could have
been done by the unehallenged admis-
sion of n score of ladies and gentlemen
as delegates from the Woman Suffrage
Association"

perishabIe fame. Aided by DIR. Hall,
whose intrepid zeal is worthy of all
praise, and by the support and counsel
OF DIR. Watts, Professor Prentice, Rev.
Mr.. Parrish, DIR. Fiske, Hons. Downing,
McF. Patton and many others, these
gentlemen held anarchy at bay and
brought the question as to whether or
not we should be admitted to our seat in
the Alliance squarely before the people
in such a manner that they all under
stood it, and the consequence was that
the President, who had set out from the
first under instructions from T. II. Cam
and his packed committee to hold the
bits between his teeth las did the tenn
porary Chairman until iocularly i'm
peached}, thought better of his position
and conducted the trying subject fairly
and justly.
We have no hesitation in avowing
that had J. II. ID. Henderson in his Of
fee as temporary Chairman remained
as an executive instead of assuming the
role of dictator the Woman Suffrage
delegation would have been admitted
on our motion to amend the Commit
tees report, and we also declare that II
upon Mr.. Ryan's installation had he
been content to take his seat as eXecu-
tive instead of trying to follow the ad-
vice of the disorganizers, poor old man
Thornton who can never forgive us for
being his successful competitor in n
prize essay, would not have had oppor-
tunity to attack and insult us as he was
permitted 10 do. But all that is past
now. The President nobly returned TO
his duty, the eX-President repented OF
his injustice, and the sequel proved that
it was not the Woman Suffrage delega-
ton but ''AIrs. Duniway" whom the
packed Committee sought to ostracise.
Right has triumphed and everything
is serene again.

FREE EXPRESSION OF THE BALLOT.

Many and various are the rumors
that come to us from the stronghold Of
Mormonism. There seems at last TO be
a determination on the part of the Gov
ernment to abolish polygamy, and we
well know that none will hail this pros
pect with greater joy than the Mormon
women themselves. As usual, men, in
their determination to amend their po-
litical muddles, are mixing them worse
and worse.
1t is well known that women in Utah
have the right of suffrage, but under the
plurality system of marriage this right
is enjoyed, as all other rights are en-
joyed in such instances, by the master
over the slave, and Mormon wives vote
at the bidding of their Mormon lords.
The politicians now propose to so amend
the election laws as 'tO give them free
expression at the ballot and allow only
male citizens to vote" Just how "free
expression is to be given to the ballot

EVENING SESSION.
It was generally understood that the
Alliance would adjourn sine Gie this
evening, and general desire prevailed
throughout the city TO be in at its death.
Therefore the Opera House was densely
thronged at an early hour. The Oppos-
ition meeting did not appear to lesson
the crowd in attendance at the Alliance.
On the contrary, it seemed to increase
the interest already manifested, and the
consequence was that every available
seat in the lower hall was filled, while
the gallery was well represented.
Mr.. Leland as the first speaker, adj
dressed the assembled multitude for
half an hour, and on retiring introduced
Mrs. Duniway rs the Oregon self
sharpener."
Mrs. Duniway thanked the gentleman
who preceded her for the handsome
compliments he had paid her sex in ac-
knOwledging they did possess sufficient
common sense to know right from
wrong. Even that was more than some
men would own up TO. She then pro-
ceeded to apologize for certain remarks
made during the forenoon session while
in the heat Of passion ; but her apology
was expressed i'm such u manner as to
lead some to believe that it was sarcasm.
She had been attacked by those who
were her seniors in age, and who used
I language insulting to herself and her
sex. She could not humiliate herself
enough to think she WAS the only one
at fault, although she acknowledged she
might have said some things that might
/ better have been left unsaid. In fact,

said aught TO be sorry for she was glad
of it. She again thanked the members
of the Alliance who had so nObly de-
| Tended her, and she took the present Oc-
casiOn to speak q good word for Rev. J.
| II. ID. Henderson, whom the discharge of
I his duties rs temporary Chairman had
Overruled her in several instances. She
did not doubt his sincerity to do what
lie considered right, and her motion to
impeach him was made in jest. His
heart was in the right place, and such
being the case, she could easily overlook
his, in her opinions, unjust rulings.
Regarding the needs Of a Temperance
paper, the friends of Temperance were
not without one. The NEW NORTH
WEST, of which she was the editor. was
in every particular a strict Temperance
sheet. It never had by a single article,
or even an advertisement, encouraged
the sale of Intoxicating liquors and she
. did not intend that it should in the
future One of its chief aims was to in
still upon the minds of its readers the
blessed principles of Temperance and
sobriety. II the Temperance people
would but aid her she would endeavor
! to furnish them with a weekly paper
! having for one of the chief planks in its
platform prohibition in the fullest sense
Of the word. She resumed her seat
amid the hearty applause Of the audi
ence.
We are sorry that our space preeludes
z other reports in this issue than upon the
all-exciting one of suffragists and anti
; suffragists.

A State Temperance Alliance was last
week i'm Session at Salem. The pro-
ceedings were discordant, stormy and
disgraceful. Some foolish and superan-
uated men opposed, with much dis
courteous vehemence, the admission OF
Mrs. Duniway, who claimed to have
been elected as a delegate from the Wo-
man Suffrage Association, and they
were successful in their opposition.
The time will come before long when
this order of things will be reversed, and
women will be permitted to the fullest
extent to cooperate in carrying out
great works of reform. If any are inter-
ested IN inaugurating an era of temper
ance, IL Is the women of the land, upon

lost 10 the crowd This package was found to
contain good and sufficient deed conveying to
Ulysses s. Grant zone undivided one-haf in
terest 10 and to- certain sllver-bearing lode
situated in the lower end of the county
AT the time of the giving Of the deed as
mentioned, the only development on the lode
was shaft at the discovery, some thirty feet
deep, which showed some mineral, but very
much scattered; but about six weeks since the
remaining half owner whom we shall call
Roberts-as that is not his name) went down
the mountain about 800 feet from the discovery
and started drift on The lode. He kept very
quiet, but worked with will, and has reaped
his reward; for after driving the drill some 80
feet, he came upon body Of ore abundant
enough and rich enough to turn the brain of the
oldest prospector. The bare statement OF the
wealth disclosed would sound like some story
of the Thousand and One Nights, and would
seem incredible to any one unacquainted with
the rich mineral deposits sometimes found 10
this region.
Roberts continued to drive the drift, which
is now about one hundred feet 10 length, aud
nearly under the discovery. The body OF ore
has if anything increased in size, and for itty
feet the pay streak varies from twelve inches
to four feet in width 1t is mostly gray copper
and brittle silver, and it is wonderfully rich.
We were told of an assay of one specimen which
showed coin value Of 1920 dollars to the
ton. There has been no stopping as yet but IN
running the drift Roberts has taken out some
eleven tons of frst-class ore, which will proba-
bly, average 500 ounces, and which is, We un.
dvrstand to be- shipped to Germany. There Is,
at thes4owest calculation, SO We are informed,
fifty thousand dollars in sight, and nobydy
knows the extent or width of the pocket.
Thus the matter stands. Roberts has said
nothing, and has shipped his ore away without
disclosing to anybody the richness or the loca-
ton of the lode. There are probably not five
persons who know anything about either. The
deed of the President has not yet been put
upon. record, but he is, of course, informed re-
garding the value of his Colorado property.
