Tho dispatches say that One Of the
presidents personal friends is authority
for the statement that the president -
quite anxious, 80 soon as there is any
let up Of the existing pressure, To con
slider some practical and speedy plan Of
dealing with the Mormon question.
The recent arrival in New York Of
some hundreds nf Mormon immigrants,
and the departure from the ssrne port
of forty Mormon Tui.sioDaiies with q
view Of increasing the food Of poIyga-
nous immigration, have intensified in
his mind the desire expressed in his In
angnral, while respecting 70 the utmost
the conscientious connections and reli.
gious scrnpIes Of every citizen TO pro
bibit all crihinal practice, especially Of
that class which destroy the family re-
lations and endangers order, be is
equally decided ia his opinion that no
ecclesiastical organization can safely le
permitted .io n4urp in the smallest d.
gree the fnnetions and powers pf the
national government. Recent attacks
by Mormon church leaders on Governor
Murray. OF Utah, who. Is personsl
friend Of the I.r, silent. and upon Gen.
NJ. VI. BIne, of Illinois, because of
their anti-polygamous sentiments. have
excited some considerable fs.rlines in
hiS mind. The denomination of tie
latter gentleman as receiver 81 public
lands IN Utah is tiei mp in the a.naie
on charges preferred by delegate ca''por'.
Among snggestel plans the one pro-

G. Campb.l', The: anti-polygany dele
gate from th's territory, has written a
strong letter favorins it. Meanwhile
Senator Logan, to whom. tic president
coniided the championship Of his anti
polygamy policy in the senate, h
actively considering what Legislation
can best bc had ~ Ineet the desired
end II seems 10 as that it is about
time for the Republican party to take
some STEPS to~ar'is putting stop to
polygamy. We believe almost every
National Republican platform since
1850 has contained plank antngon
istic Ia Mormonism, but that cLiireh i.
now stronger than ever.

rnE way was DONE.

The method by which so much plum
der has been secured by Dorsey, Brady
and their ring is shch that actual frand
is difficult to prove though it may be
very apparent. 1t consists in raising
the compensations after contracts are
let, upon the ground of increased or
"expedited' service. For Instance, A
and b arc competitors fora contract
worth about $4,000, over route re-
suiring three trips a week. A is an
honest bidder and files bis estimate In
good faith b is a johber, and by an
understanding with the authorities in
charge of the letting, makes his bid be-
low the actual cost of performing the
service. He gets the job and straihgtway
sets about getting signatures along the
route petitioning for dali. trips and
expedited" service. In accordance
with this petition, his compensation is
increased TO $75,O 900 or perhaps $780,.
600. This sort of thing being done or
about 80 routes, makes good thing
for not only the contractors but fol
their conlederates in the Department
with whom they are supposed to divide
In most of these cases the increase il
compensation is nearly all profit, a
the extra expense is but slight. Yet j
! is oil done within the letter of the laS
and the records of the contract offic
are in perfect order.

EacAL Politics.


Under the above caption the Merc.uy
has the following very sensible remarks
on deserving party principles when the
contest Is merely locsl. ain time of
peace, pare f,r war" is we'll known
maxim in craftsmanship, and that man
who does not appreciate its wisdom in
politics is not worthy of following.
IL may sound well, and sound
honest, to say, "In local elections party
lines shonld be disregarded;" but it is
unwise, except the motive is to dispupt
the existing parties or to steal the hon.
ors which they may have gained in a
hard fought campaign. If it was right
to vote for principle last fall, it is right
to vote for the same principles now.
If party lines are to be drawn every
two years, 1t is imbecile to say that
organization or discipline should be
abandoned at other times. What
makes success and insures victory every
two years, or everyf four years, vii
most certainly insure victory &C othel
times, and the party that is not worth.
of success in local elections should no
succeed in national politics. If Demo
Gratis are to suffer defeat in the ar
preaching election, it will be to thei
credit to make spartan sacrifice. w
want no more 'scrow;" no moro husk
for Democrats while Republican sort
heads are eating the corn.

NEW YORK EAsmIexs

Steel is the most notable Of spring pro-
ductions. In itself, Of course. Il is nothing
novel, but such g veIitabIe shower Of steel
as now descends upon us, IL rather . sur.
prising fact In the history Of dress. Be-
ginning with the new bonnet Il covers the
entire outfit even peeping ont from the
spring slipper. In millinery, We have
braids, cords, beads, ornaments, fringes,
laces, embroideries Of steel, 10 say nothing
Of steel net works and gauzes lsden with
steel spaBgles. In costumes tlI ese ideas
are repeated. while outdoor garments are
siylishIy srnamented With fnishines Of
the same character. 50 you see that steel
can hardly he misplaced, but # IL most
tasteful when combined with black. A
moments reflection sulicss TO show the
refinement or q black satin costume trim
med with steel and in the way Of . bOnnst
nothing l. more quietly eIosant than stHs-
liar combinations. But where steel is
united with cOlors, effects are frequently
In dubious taste. This indeed IL q mild
way of putting It, for to tell the truth
plainly, results are oftentimes very bsd.
Everything that glitters however IL fash
ionabie. II Is eagerly sought after for this
season gilt is In great demand and iri-
descent beads arc also very popular. Trim
miDgs OF material are IN a. much vogue as
ever and disposed in much the same way
as formerly; that is in kilt plsitings, box
plaitiDgs, gathered rufes, shirrings, etc.
OUT DOOR aARMESTs.
Everybody you meet wears something,
bat one Is as fashionable as the other.
Jackets, visites, circulars, capes, ulstsrs,
recingoies, I'aletOts, coais--aIl are stylish.
Now when ] go on to say that each one Of
the above names represents not one gar
ment alone but q number or garments dif-
feriDg in minor points, one can form SEINE
idea Of the variety. In The jacket family for
instance, We have at least dozen differ
ent shapes; some cutaway. others straight,
others long, others short, SEINE with
hoods, some with capes, etc.. etc. Last
but not least comes the Mother Hubbard,
with shirriDg at the neck and sleeves, and
a very handsome adaptation OF the Mother
Hubbard, called the S0lana visIte, which
Is shirTed in 10 the figure and has the
sleeves shirred also.

EAsrEh BoSNRrs.

Small shapes fitting close to the head
are leading style. Flowers are used In
profusion, and there is manifest prefer
ence for small or medium sizes rather
than large ones. But in all We see the ef-
fects Of that shading" which Il. now %
prominent. In masses Of small flowers
there are constant alterations from light
TO dark or vice versa, while sprays are al
most invariably shaded from pale 10
bright. The same graduating tsnes are
mott 'eable in silks and ribbons, and when
skillfnlIy arranged, produce beautiful re-
suits. Most Of the new ribbons In conss-
quence are very wide, 50 as to give room
Tor an insensibie transition and with the
same view very wide strings ara Of AiIk
doubled and fringed on the ends. Yet
narrow ribbons ere not prohibited, but
these are exceptions. Quite new silks and
ribbons however are uniform in color and
will be worn because the shaded are ex-
pensiye. Porcupine straws are the new
est for genaral wear; being so called be-
cause woven with sharp projections all
over the surface. An elegant bonnet lately
chosen by Sarah Bernhardt, is OF open
work, Tuscan straw, in poke shape. The
brim is faced with pale blue satin and
folds OF blue shaded satin are laid around
the crown. A cluster Of pale coral pink
flow srs ornaments the lett side in front,
and the strings are of shaded blue silk 9
