In that direction. The crop this season
has been well and satisfactorily picked

at first on account Of an importation OF
boys from San Francisco. who proved

wseded out. and the children OF the

~plication Of white labor to hop-picking.

The Court troubles OF Samuel J. Til

this man at the head Of the Government.
and thus make Of the country q by.word
and q jibs among the nations Of the
world, We have escaped this browning
disgrace almost by q miracle. But for
u little vote the 9th Of March would
witness the Inauguration a. President Of
the Republic of a man against whom
already two prosecutions for receiving
stolen money are pending in the Courts.
and over whose head how many more
causes Of action are in existence. God
only knows.
The suit began yesterday Is not by

partnership accounting on a pool on
railroad stock in 1864. and also for
s2G0. 900. which. it is claimed, was paid
to Tilden by mistake. and which he has
refused TO return-in other words. II the
complaint be true, which he has dslibe-
rately stolen. What may be the result
OF the suit. no one can A. yet tell ; but
the fact that ii is brought In u Court OF
justice shows that the moral character
Of Tilden IL not without blemish. Again
we say q national day Of thanksgiving
should be appointed. that we may praise
the God Of nations that we have escaped
the "dssp damnation OF making this

JOHN d. LEE MUST DIE.

The Supreme Court Of the Territory
Of Utah. to which tho case Of John ID.
Lee, the Mountain Meadows assassin
was carried on appeal for a new trial,
has decided against the appellant. aud
his cause has been remandsd back to the
Circuit Court. with orders that q new
day DO appointed for his execution. Lee
will probably now appeal to the Supreme
Court Of the United States. but 1t Is
scarcely probable that that tribunal will
grant him the relief prayed for. His
trial Was much fairsr and more Impair
tial than such trials in Utah generally
are. lie was convicted upon the most
conclusive evidence, by a jury, the ma
jority Of which belonged to the Mormon
Church. and therefore had every induce
msnt to acquit him. To grant him a
new trial now. would be simply to clog
the wheels Of justice and delay the exc
cuiion OF a righteous sentence against
n Of the most heartlsss butchers
known In the annals Of modern crime,
That awful tragedy at Mountain Mead
ows must be avenged. and John ID. Lee
must die. His execution will DO but q
feeble sacrifice to the memory Of the
men, and children who were
slaughtered by his orders, but 1t will b
one step toward the punishment Of that
terrible bu,chery, and as such will meet
with the hearty approval Of the whole

IT is suspected in Chicago that the
author Of the "dlory to God" dispatch
to Colonel Pslton. promising a backing
up Of lO0. 900 men in case that one vote
in Oregon were stolen. is a native OF

The probability is that the Electoral
Commission will not waste much time
in deciding ON the Louisiana case. Prac-
tically the same principles which gov
srnsd tbs ruling in the Florida case will
dictate that in Louisiana. ons thing IL
certain. The Commission cannot con-
sistsntly 60 behind the returns Of the
State rs certified to by Governor Kellogg
and the Returning Board. The ques-
ton il therefore narrowed down to tho
eligibility Of brewster and Lsvisec. and
the Congressional Investigations have
virtually determined that issue in favor
Of the Republicans. SO that We may
reasonably expect to see the vote o:
Louisiana counted for Hayes AMI
