A REMARKABLE IMMIGRATION
FUND

The Salt Lake Herald gives some
account of n perpetual immigration
fund in connection with the Mormon
Church of Utah. 1t has always been
known that poor Immigrants We're
aided by a fund; but its extent, or the
principle on which IL WAS admins
tered. was not so generally known.
The Herald says the names aud sure
ties of 5000 persons appear upon the
books as delinquent to this fund. in an
aggregate OF more than a million of
dollars. 1t appears hat the principal
of the fund is lent to aid persons in
coming to the country; but the repay
ment is pledged both by the borrower
and a surety. The capital is thus con-
tinually turned over. The extent OF
the Immigration fund is indicated by
the amount which is delinquent. The
larger amotrll of immigrants have no
doubt paid up. 1t is claimed tia
many, ever among the delinquents,
have become wealthy. When it is
noted that the Mormons always have a
number of preachers in the field, es-
pecially in Europe. who are gathering
companies of immigrants, and that
there is a perpetual fund TO aid them
in coming to Utah, the perfection OF
such an organization is apparent. Its
operations never cease, and its fund,
though delinquent in a million of dol
lars, never gives out. The money is
always going put and coming in. The
10000 delinquents will disappear from
the books, and other debtors will be
recorded. Nothing so perfect in the
way of an organization to bring out
immigrants as this Utah immigration
plan, is known in any other part of the
country.

Bs.AIR's MEMORIAL.

Montgomery Blsir's memorial. in
PRODUCED In the Maryland Legislature,
coming, as it does, right on the heels
of the expose OF Mr.. Secretary Chan
dler, of the National Republican Cen
trail Committee, is attracting universal
attention aud comment from the press.
MIR. Chandler admits that 1000 rilden
votes were thrown out by the Louisi
ana Returning Board, and he says 1t
took men of tried courage and iron
nerve to do il. It was. nevertheless,
done, and the State given to Hayes.
The same acs, or series of acts, also
gave the State to Packard, who re
ceived 1000 votes more than the high
est OF the Hayes electors. The re-
spective titles of Hayes and Packard
were therefore idenlical-they should
stand or fall together. If the one was
not good, it is certainly no possible
that the other could be any better.
From this came all the trouble.
The people of Louisiana protested
against being swindled out of the
Presidency unless they could make
terms securing local self-government
for themselves. This was all they ex
pected from Tilden. and if they could
obtain the same results from Hayes
they were willing to wink at the frauds
of the Returning Board. A compro-
mise was next in order, and Hayes,
through>hi lis friends and advisers, and
to smooth his W path TO the
Presidency. opened negotiations.
The terms finally agreed upon
bound the incoming Chief Mag
istrate to a withdrawal Of the Fed
eral troops and the recognition
of the Nichols Government-Fackard
to be mercilessly slaughtered in the
house of his friends. How we'll the
compact has been carried ont is famil-
lar 10 every American citizen. This is
substantially the case as made out by
Chandler, Secretary of the National
Republican Committee. Montgomery
Blair. assuming these thingsto b. true,
memorializes Congress to institute a
searching investigation. We believe
he is right in doing so, not that we be-
lieve the title of Mr.. Hayes to the
Presidency can be successfully assailed,
or that it should be. but to satisfy the
country of the crooked means, or the
re verse. by which he attained his pres
ent exalted position at the head of the
nation. The people of America are en-
titled to all of the facts underlying this
great wrong. if wrong has been com
united, and if all were fair and honor
able it is but justice to President Hay s
that he be fully exonerated. The facts
is the only interest we have in the mat.
ter. The validity of his claim TO the
Office is not to be brought in question
at this late day. That was settled by
a solemn compact of the two great par
ties, and it must not be disturbed.

4 CASE or CREMATION.

According to the statements of several
persons, n uniqe case of cremation took
place near HandsbOro, Miss, n few days
since. Ar old Italian fisherman went from
Mississippi City to Handsboro and settled
in n hut near the town. Shortly after
wards he was taken sick and died alone
and unattended in his hut. After two OF
three days he was missed and sought and
found dead in the small building. Decom-
position had set in and advanced rapidly,
80 that it was impossible to approach him.
No one could be induced, even with the
offer of a generous reward, to bury the
body, or even approach it. 1t was conse-
quently resolved to use extreme measures,
and the hut was purchased from it's own
ers. 1t was set on fire and the body of the
old fisherman reduced to ashes with the
house.-N. o.. Picdyune, 10Th Hh.
If the above article had the cap
ton, "a Case of Misrepresenta.
ton" it would have been nearer
the truth, as the statement is false
in every particular.
The man spoken of is Matio
Poliche, an Austrian, whose death
was mentioned in our local para
graph column last week. The facts
in the case are substantially these:
On Tuesday the 18th ult., Mr..
Poliche went fom Biloxi to Mr..
John Latimcr's house near HaLdk'
bOro, and was taken sick on the,
following Thursday, and died Mon.
day, 23d. He was attended by
DIR. j. E. Lyon, and the family of
Mr.. Latimer did not move out till
the day before he died. A nurse
was procured who remained with
the man until his death. Wedues-
day his remains were decently in
tered, and the house in which be
died is standing to-day uninjured.
