FOR YOUR SAKE.

Miss Anna Dickinson has been deliv-
ering a lecture at st. Louis, bearing the
title placed at the head of this article.
In the course of it she took occasion to
bitterly denouncs the Social Evil ordin
ance which at present obtains in st.
Louis, requiring the registration of the
soiled doves of that city. She said that
a policeman ought TO be stationed at the
doors of the houses where the frail fair
ones reside, who should take down the
names of all who enter and publish them
in the papers. We opine that proceed
ing might cause little GOODNESS in some
circles. In the course Of her lecture,
Miss Dickinson made a most eloquent
and moving appeal in behalf of these
unfortunate girls, which affected the au-
dence greatly, even to tears-which were
participated in by the speaker. As an
example of how kind hearted and gener-
Gus many of these unhappy girls were,
Miss Dickinson related an incident that
happened last fall in Philadelphia. She
received note requesting her to call at
once at certain house not far from
her own residence. She found FIVE young
aud beautiful girls there, aud the mis-
tress OF the mansion. She was shown q
pale, innocent girl of fifteen, who had
come to the city to find employment, and
being unsuccessful had entered the house
and begged to become one of the in
mates. The mistress and the five girls
seeing that she was innocent, stripped
off their jewels and emptied their purses,
contributing $1,000 for the child, and
sent for Miss d. to come and take her
away, and provide her with a suitable
home. They said: Take her; take
the money and the jewels, and get hei
ont of here ~

MINING CLAIM ABANDONMENT The
San Francisco Mining and Scientific

three months from the 10th instant il the
requisite amount of work has not been

such claims will be open to relocation in

THE CENTENNIAL.

The veteran Thurlow Weed has writ.
ten letter to the New York Tribune,
which We think places this matter in its
true light. In. the projected exposition
with proposed appropriation of SlO,-
100000, Weed sees the foot prints of q
ring and the usual consequent stealinss.
He does not want any exposition, but
wishes regular Fourth of July celebra-
ton, only of greater magnitude and ex-
tent, and more than usual solemnity, to
which all the country could be invited.
He says that would not need but q mod.
crate sum for expenses and be much
moro appropriate for the occasion. We
think be is right, especially when he
says that it should simply be day Of
festivity and rejoicing, and not hamperet
with money-making or seeking enter
prise as an exposition must necessaril,
be. With him We think that the al
mighty dollar should be forgotten ant
the nation unite in offering thanks TO
its preservation and in rejoicings appro
pirate to the occasion. Mr.. Weeds re
marks are so sensible and apt that W
publish short extract from his letter:
What looked for, and what l thin
was looked for by others, was a day O
general jubilee, in which the Who'll
American people could unite in expires
sions and manifestations of heartfelt To-
for their individual happiness and for on
national prosperity during the HUNDRED
years. But this was a deluson. Tn,
occasion is to be turned to account in a,
pecuniary way. We IRE to have. not ,
Fourth of July celebration upon broad
basis, but n United States fair or cattl,
show. 1t is to be what might inst n.
well be in any other year or upon ony
other day of the year, as upon the Fopr,5
OF July, 1876. In my judgment the ey.
hibition of scientific, mechanical and No.
rlcultural implements and products q,
Philadelphia wonld be quite as much oui
place on the Fourth of July, 1876. as
were the money-tables that desecrated
the Temple of Jerusalem. We should

national age, become, for one whole day.

SORRY COMFORT.

The Pubs went ont cunning and caught
u full blooded Democrat. and great is the
rejoicing over their i'll fated victim. They
are as pleased as lot of Fijee Islanders
over an unexpected banquet of roast mis-
sionary. But we would advise them to
be q little more cautious. True, they
have detected Groesbeck in the commits
sion of a crime, of bribing the City Coun-
ell of Cincinnati. So far, good; we are
glad they did so, and wish that all such
offenders, no matter of what political
stripe, were thus exposed and punished.
But what is the use the administration
papers are making of this! They do not
exult because an offender is detected, but
take comfort because all the corruption
is not confined to their side of the house.
Now we take it this is but sorry consola-
ton, and shows the contemplate spirit
so frequently exhibited by criminals, of
rejoicing when others fall as low as they
are. This is but short-sighted view of
such matters. Two wrongs never made
one right. If ninety-nine men commit
crime, is that any excuse for the offences
Of the hundredth? If one man is con-
victed Of murder, shall the commission
of similar crime by another excuse the
offence of the first? No; this style OF
reasoning won't do. We say, that when
man is charged with crime, the proper
enquiry is into his guilt or innocence,
and not into his political proclivities.
Stealing is stealing, whether committed
by Jew or Gentle, Republican or Dem
ocrat; and we submit. that when crime
is proved against any one, you should
punish him with strict impartiality, and
do not have q sort of debtor and creditor
account between parties, sects, cliques oil
coteries, and make the offences of one
condone the crimes OF another. Follow
ing that system, is q very ready way OF
sending the whole bundle to old Nick
neck and crop.

MONTAGUES AND CAPULETS.

The Salt Lake Tribune and Herald are
having a very pretty journalistic warfare;
the Mckee ILL recently introduced into
Congress to regulate Utah matters being
the bone of contention. The truth, as it
usually does, lies between the posi-
tons taken by the disputants.
There is no doubt that Mormondom
needs reconstruction in some matters,
but it is equally true that the ring of
Federal Office holders is as corrupt as the
practices which they pretend to discoun-
tenance. The fact is both sides want
cleaning out, and a just and equitable
system OF government established, which
would make no distinction on account of
religious or other opinions, and deal out
equal and exact justice to all. This con.
summation, however desirable, is not to
be had under either the present Nor
mon or Federal rulers, so we say with
Mercutio:
"a plague upon both your houses"
The best thing the people of Utah can
do, is to get rid of the whole boiling OF
them and have new SET, which by some
unlocked for chance might be honest
men. This we admit is forlorn hope,
but 1t is the only one, and as such we
respectfully offer it.

The country is dividing into those who
believe in political honesty and who
mean to secure it, and those who laugh
it 10 scorn as impractcable sentimental
ity. What sincere Republicans ask, and
do not receive, is some unmistakable sign
from Washington that their Administra-
ton is with the former and not with the
latter. They do not see that sign in the
appointment of Governor Shepherd in
the Sanborn contracts, in the nomination
to the Boston Collectorship, as they did
not see it in the approval of the salary
grab, " in the retention of Mr.. Casey, in
the tendency to initiate the currency, and
in the hesitation to retrench. That de-
mand, however, will not be relaxed An
attempt in the White House to Johnson
ize the Republican party failed and m
effect to Buterize it will be equally USE
less.
The above is taken from Harper's
Weekly which, up to the present time,
has been a thick and thin supporter of
The Administration, and is very signif-
cant of the current Of popular opinion,
1t says truly the demand of the public
will not be relaxed until the Government
of the country is in the hands of honest
men. 1t matters little, what they call
themselves, whether Republicans or
Democrats or anything else, but they
must be honest and capable. This is
the popular will, it is growing stronger
and more pronounced daily, and unless
needed will become so loud, so stern and
threatening, that the political tricksters
who now rule the roast will be seeking
hiding places from the wrath to come.

THE ARMIES OF CHRIsTENDOM.-"Pea Peace
on earth and good will to mem" The above
sweetly inspiring words are attributed to Jesus
Of Nazareth. we believe; they are said also to
have been sung by the angels. Preachers and
priests expatiate unwearyingly upon the indu-
bitable beauty Of the sentiment they inculcate
and some of the finest panegyrics in our Ian
guage have been pronounced upon the religion
said to be founded upon the humane principle
they suggest, but perpetuate only in theory
Desirable as is Peace on earth and goodwill
to men," however, there are at this day, in
Christendom alone, more than ten millions of
men supported in arms. whose life-pursuit is
war; and this after more than eighteen him.
dred years have elapsed since the song was
sung in Heaven. These men are not maintain.
ed to war with barbarians, nor to protect
Christian nations against powerful enemies out
side the pale of Christianity; but to lombard
Christian cities, to desolate Christian countries
and homes, and to cut the throats Of opposing
Christian armies. How inconsistent is this
