The evidence for the prosecution
in the trial of John D. Lee, the chief
actor in the Mountain Meadow mas
sacre, was closed at Beaver, Utah ,on
Saturday, and to the establishment
of all in Court, the defence rested
their case and proposed to go to the
jury on the evidence adduced by the
prosecution. The details Of the
massacre as given by the wit
nesses for the prosecution, and
many of whom were participants
in it, brings out fully all the sicken-
ing horrors of the bloody butchery,
and before any fair and impartial
jury could not fail to result in the
conviction of Lee, whose guilt is es-
tablished beyond the shadow of a
doubt, but it is greatly to be feared
that the inhuman fiend, even if con-
vitced, will escape the penalty of his
awful crimes unless the Government
should interpose its authority to Sc
cure to him the punishment he so
richly merits. In fact, the resting
of their case by the counsel for the
defence suggests suspicion that
they are confident that their client
has nothing to fear from Utah jury.

1t will be seen that the fund re-

nearly $4,000 less than last year. If
this reduction is kept up for a few
years, it will not be long until this
county will receive no fund at all
from the State for School purposes,
although our people pay annually in
to the State School Fund about
$4,000. Why is this TINS?

The Servians seem to be holding
their own lately, and there are more
evidences that Russia is determined
to give them open aid as well as CO.
vert sympathy and support, rather
than allow them to be crushed out by
the Turks. AT the same time Turkey
is earning the moral hostility of the
leading European nations by the
atrocities committed in Bulgaria,
and if Russia decides to go into the
field openly in behalf of the Servians
they will probably not make any
great opposition, though in the end
they will doubtless interfere to pre-
vent Russia from Selling any portion
of the coveted territory of Turkey.
