a LONG pending case from Iowa, with
respect to the liquor legislation of that
state, has been disposed of by the supreme
court. The case was raised under the
clause of the Fourteenth amendment, pro-
Niding that "no state shall make or enforce
any law which shall abridge the privileges
or immunities Of citizens of the United
States; nor shall any state deprive any
person of life, liberty or property without
due process of law.p The court decided the
right to sell intoxicating liquors not to be
one of the privileges and immunities coming
under the fourteenth amendment, but that
III a case was presented Of any person
owning liquors or other property at the
time the law was passed by the state abso-
lutely prohibiting the sale of it, it would
be a very grave question whether such q
law would not be inconsistent with the pro-
visions of that amendment which forbids
a state to deprive any person OF life, liber-
ty or property without due process of
law" The court, however. decided that
this question was not before it, and there
fore did not decide upon it.

The Legislature of Utah, in February
1870, passed an act enfr~anchising the
women of that territory. Since then,
women have voted on all political ques'
tons. Ten thousand women voted at the
election last year for delegate to Congress,
many of whom were not Mormons. The
governors wife and other women of worth
and culture voted for the anti Mormon
candidate. Twenty-three thousand votes
in all were cast at that election. More
than eleven thousand of these were Nor.
mon men, being nearly six times as many
Mormon male voters as anti-Mormon male
voters.
All can readily see that whatever law
these Mormon men wish to enact they can
do so by o~ut-voting the others. Yet no at.
tempt has been made ON the part of Con-
gress to deprive the Mormon men Of the
right of suffrage in order to do away with
poligamy but strenuous efforts are being
made to deprive all women of that right /;
thus leaving not only Mormon women, but
all other women in the territory, perfectly
powerless. They ..can never vote to do
away with any Of the vices that there ex-
list but brutal, ignorant men can make
what laws they please. We are told that
the Mormon element is largely composed
OF the ignorant, degraded classes from
Europe, and miners, adventures, and un-
prlncipled politicians form the greater por-
ton Of the remainder.
And yet Senators and Representatives
tell us they want to purify that govern
ment and protect woman by taking from
her the right to say who shall be her law
makers.

SPECIE

We are surprised still to find the plea for
specie in public journals and speeches.
What is the object? Specie payment will
not increase the amount Of gold, hence not
the circulating medium but to force it up
or the country by diminishing the currency.
will only add to the cause from which the
country is now suffering. But these jour
nails and speakers tell our merchants and
laborers that specie payment would reduce
their expenses Of living, by a per centage,
at least, equal to the present premium
in gold. So it would, but these leaders
surely know that it would reduce
their income, or wages, even more (; for
the value of labor must 60 down with, if
not before, the prices of its products. The
complaint even now is that wages have
come down much more than the cost Of
living. We want a money medium that can
be increased and diminished with the re.
q%uirements Of commerce; for if the supply
of money cannot change, prices of labor
iuuSts ppCtlC CdIluOb OC uluuC W Nhty Us
much as m requires; but govern
ment bonds, and a currency that can be con-
verted the one into the other at the holders
option, will remove this difficulty.
Specie payment is indeed desirable, but
it must not be purchased too dearly. By
the plan of reducing the currency, we
should, as the youthful Franklin, 'spay too
dear for the whistle J" for the main advan-
tage of specie payment, if not the only
one, is our national credit abroad and
home comforts and prosperity must not be
sacrificed to this.
If there were enough money at home,
specie payment would come as an insepara-
BILE consequence, for our deficiency in
coined money is caused by the shipments
to Europe to pay interest on our indebted
ness there. The immense foreign loans to
build our railroads and carry on other en-.
terprises here, show that we have the value /;
so that our only trouble comes from not
knowing how to make our wealth the basis
of an adequate circulating medium.
