 Institute.
 This is the 6fty-ffth year of the associ-
 ation and completes the third year in the
 present quarters. During the past year 27O annual, and 280 semi-annual and quarterly
 members have joined the Institute, and 1,675
 books have been taken out in single volumes
 by persons not members. During the occu-
 pancy of the present rooms there have been
 963 annual members, TIP semi and quarterly
 members, and 3,731 books taken out by
 weekly rental. at ten cents per volume.
 There are also 16 certificate members of from to 12 years, and 39 life members
 The income for the past year has been
 Membership, $l,354.69 rents of the build ing, $1, ,33O.71 donations, $1OO; and adver- tising in circulars, $65. Total, $2, S5o.40.
 Total for past three years, $s, ,716.s7. Five hundred and fifty volumes have been added in the last year, and in the last three 1888.
 Dr. A. B. Lewis has given $1OO for adorn-
 ing the rooms, last year having given $380.
 The Institute is indebted to Judge Henry
 E. Pardee for obtaining an act of the
 Legislature relieving it from taxation, and
 will have a larger fund for obtaining books
 this coming year than ever before on account
 of it.
 The total receipts for the year have been $1 ,419. 64, and total expenditures $1 ,343.07,
 leaving a surplus of $76 62. The old in- debtedness, which was s, 800, has been re- duced to about $l, POO.
 During the last three years substantial progress has been made, nearly 2, ,00O vol umes having been added ,and publications of the last decade have been supplied. Cases, ar ticles of furniture and first class reading room have also been provided. The presi- dent thinks the library will soon reach such dimensions that a proper mode of catalogue ing should be introduced, and that greater protection should be given to the library, the rooms being open five hours in the day when the librarian is not in attendance, and large numbers of valuable books are left free to the access of the public. Further attention should be given to the increase of the refer ence library and the purchasing of encyclo- psedias and other works of reference. For these improvements more funds are required and more annual certificate and life mem- bers He thought that @ number Of public spirited men, upon having their attention { called to it, would gladly take one or another ! of these memberships for the double purpose of aiding the Institute and enjoying it's priv ! ileees. Our association has now arrived at | another phase of modern life. when the name of Young Mems Institute becomes in @ meas | ure misnomer. It is the age of reading, l the age of books, of periodicals, of newspa- | pers. We have now not only the printed page but the illustrated page. Books now ! are not only for the brain, but also for the eye. They gratify not only our thirst fol knowledge, but our love of the beautiful, and as the taste and daily desire for these things is confined to no sex, no age, no occu patton, no class, so this institution has be

polygamist, and consequently morally

polygamist, and consequently morally
unfit to occupy seat in the Congress Of
the United States. The moral sentiment
and advanced civilization of the coun-
try demand his prompt exclusion from
Congress on this ground alone. The plea
that polygamy-legalized prostitution,
and the right to worship God accord
ing to the dictates of ones own con-
science, are convertible terms, is as false
in fact as it is insulting to the intelligence
and virtue of the people of the country.
There must be no more dallying and tenn
porizing with this den Of harlots and
brazen-faced pimps. The people
expect the government to assert
the authority of the law over
the ungodly people of Utah. They de-
mand that the evil be eradicated at once,
and without ceremony, even though the
cause perish with it. In the interest of
innocent little children and the future of
the country, the abatement of this cess
pool of vice and immortality should be
prosecuted with that vigor and spirit
which characterize the movements Of the
police authorities in raiding dens Of
prostitution and landing the inmates in
the lookup.

Now that the Republicans have control

Now that the Republicans have control
of the House they are preparing to pro-
coed, as usual, to decide the election
contests according to their partisan in
clinations, without considering the facts
and justice. This was to have been ex-
pected, and the GLOBE has no sorrow to
express over the dose about to be
administered to the Democrats. When
the Democrats controlled the House
they were puerile enough to
allow the Republicans to over
awe them. They were intimidated
and prevented from deciding contests on
their merits by the Republican hue and
cry that an Outrage" was being at
tempted. The Republicans always con-
slider it an COURAGE" to unseat one of
their gang, and though in minority in
the last Congress, they developed such an
amount of cowardice among the Demo-
Gratis that they carried their point. Now
that the boot is on the other foot they
openly boast that they propose to unseat
number of Democrats who were elected
ny overwhelming majorities. We hope
they will execute their threat. 1t will
give the Democrats taste of the medi-
cine which they deserve, and will show
them what pack of arrant towards
they have been in permitting themselves
to be swerved from deciding accord
ing to the law and evidence, be-
cause their political opponents
shrieked ''fraud." Keifer organ
lied his election committee to convict
and the GLOBE will shed no tears if every
Democrat whose seat is contested is ous-
ted. 1t will be a just retribution for
the shamefully cowardly policy which
the Democrats adopted. Perhaps the
Democrats will learn wisdom from ex-
perience, but probably not. Such re-
suit is too much to expect.

ONE of the most pitiable instances of
newspaper office begging is just now
being displayed by the Chicago Inter-
Ocean. VIM Penn Nixon, the business
manager of that concern, was an appli-
cant for the collectorship of Chicago,
but he failed to secure the desired NOR
sci. The Inter- Ocean has been violent
stalwart in politics. At the time of the
Chicago convention in 1880 it was enthu-
siastic in support of Grant, and has ever
since continued in the same line.
When Nixon failed, a few days ago, to
get his reward, he turned his batteries on
the Stalwarts and is now civil service
reformer. That paper is now abusing
Logan and other members of the gang
which it has been supporting SO zealously
and practically advertising its own
shame. 1t is humiliating to see news
paper give itself away in such disgrace
full manner If it must be an Office
beggar it ought to have sufficient
amount of pride to conceal Its grief.
