an ERROR OF THE IMMIGRATION
BOARD.
We confess to learning with great surprise
that tho so-called new edition of 10000
copies of the State immigration pamphlet is
simply reprint of the stereotype plates of
last year. There are $4,000 copies of these
pamphlets now in print, which the commits
sion seem to have been unable to distribute
and here comes an order for $4,000 more. The
pamphlet is review of the State for 1873,
year which was exceedingly unfortunate for
Minnesota. Owing to the excessive heated
term in July, our crops became the nearest
total failure which has ever been known
since the State became prominent in the ap-
ricultural production of the world. The con-
sequence was that the record of that wear
was necessarily CLOSED over and good deal
drawn from the previous year. The year lust
closing, 1879, has been one of the
most prosperous ever known in Minnesota.
1t is probably correct to say it has been the
most prosperous. A record of the year if
properly prepared and circulated would be
worth millions of dollars to the State, and
still the immigration board are so short sight
ed as to order reprint of the review of
1878 when We had an exceptionally disas-
trous year. Instead of this tho twenty-five
thousand undistributed copies should be sold
for waste paper and new pamphlet sup
piled throughout. We trust the commission
will reconsider their mistaken action.

UNFOLDING THE LAZY.

It should be borne in mind that the Re-
publicans do not accuse Gov. Gsrcelon and
his council of doing anything illegal. They
admit, by implication at least, that he has
pursued strictly legal course, but the law is
what hurts them. They have been in the
habit of controlling the count themselves,
and all illegahties which told against the Re-
publicans were ignored. This year the lille
galities have been strictly enforced, and
hence the howl. IT,. FL
It should be borne in mind. too, that on
the popular vote for Governor the Republic
cans we're in the minority. They pirate
about overriding the popular will. If they
could elect their Governor by. the legislature
they would elect man who received o minor
ity of the popular vote. The popular will is
more nearly served by the present programme
than any other. ...-.-.-....... "a
The Republicans thought that by means
OF fraud and bribery they had secured the
legislature. They ind that according to
law they have not, hence they propose to re-
bel. We trust they will execute their
threats. --- ...-......-., . ..s ~ 81,

MORMONISM,

Mr. Haues' PIN for Crushing out the I,.-
Equity.
Washington Special ~
The President is reported to be very de-.
terminea in his purpose to pursue an agrees
sive policy against the Mormons. In bis
message the President stated that it might
become necessary 10 deprive the Mormons of
tho right Of citizenship as one means of de-
stroying polygamy. In private conversation
the President has recently expressed the
most emphatic views on this question. The
first step in the policy WAS to issue a circular
to foreign governments, requesting them to
notify emigrants that the laws in this coun-
try against polygamy were to be enforced.
Many OF the foreign governments have Civ
on this information. To some gentlemen
from Utah the President has explained de-
tails OF his plan. In outline it is this: The
President would deprive the Mormons as such
of all political power, and would place the
Gentiles alone in authority in localities
where the Mormons are numerous. The ex-
perienoe of the past, he thinks, has shown
that polygamy can neither be destroyed nor
restrained except by the most stringent
measures. To accomplish this the Presi-
don't suggests board of registration to be
composed OF the governor and judges of the
Territory, or of such persons as they may
choose, the duty of which board shall be to
SEQ to it that none but Gentiles are regis
tered as voters. It is to be obligatory upon
the voter to prove af6rmatively that he is
not Mormon, or at least not q
polygamist. By this process it is
proposed to deprive all polvgamists- of the
right of suffrage. As q consequence of such
policy it is believed that Gentle legislature
could be secured which would Cooperate
with tho governor and make laws that would
further restrict polygamy. Such legisla-
ture could enact that cohabitation
should be sufficient proof of
Polvgarnous marriage, and in this man
ner overcome the impenetrable mysteries of
the Endowment House. With such
Expressive measures as these it is believed
Mormon polygamy could not long survive.
This is the Presidents policy. It will be
seen that it is an intensely aggressive one,
and there is little probability that Congress
controlled by Democrats will indorse such
policy. The Mormons have been shrewd
enough to involve the possible political su-
Premacy of the Democratic party in tho
fate of Mormonism. -

It is believed that the real object of Sec
rotary Sherman's trip to New York is TO ar
range for the sale of the balance of the 4
per cent. bonds authorized to be Issued under
the refunding act of July l, 1870, and the
supplemental act of January 20, 1871. These
two acts authorized the issue of an aggregate
of 81 800 100000 in bonds for refunding
"any of the bonds of the United States out
standing and known as FIVE twenty bonds -
and it is specified that of the aggregate
named not more than $50O,OOO,OOO shall
bear interest at the rate of per cent per
annum. not more than $3OO,OOO,OOO
shall bear ~ per cent, and the bal
ance of the 81 800 100000 shall bear per
cent. Under these acts authority was only
given to refund the bonds known as five
twenties. The total amount of fve-twenty
bonds outstanding when refunding was au-
thorized was nearly 81 200, 600 900, and when
all this class of bonds were refunded the Sec
rotary of the treasury was authorized, by the
act Of July Is, 1879, to refund the ten-forty
bonds, of which there were outstanding
$194, OOO, 900, and which have been redeema-
able at the option of the government since
