a MUNICIPAL election was held in
Salt Lake City Monday. 1t was an
utter sham. No genuine election
was ever held in Utah. That Ter
ritory is altogether under the politi-
cal control of the Mormon Church,
except so Ear as concerns the appoint
i've Federal offices. The Superintend-
ent OF lions Cooperative Merchan-
tile Institute was elected Mayor.
That establishment is the heart Of
Mormon traffic. TO it leads all the
arteries and veins of trade. The
Mayor elect is not n polygamist.
Polygamy is by no means the only
evil of Utah. Some, who are pro
found and intense in their abhor.
renee of the peculiar institution,
still insist that, bad as it is, there is
something worse, namely, the abso-
lutte monopoly Of power and proper
ty by the church as such.

TuE Senate of Wisconsin has
passed a bill by two-thirds vote re-
establishing the death penalty, and
now goes to the Assembly, with at
least an even chance, ii is thought,
of becoming a law. No hanging
has been done in Wisconsin for
murder during the past twenty-five
years, and Imprisonment for life, as
n substitute, has certainly had a fair
chance. To go back to the gallows
now would lse Il confession that the
experiment had failed, and that
hanging is the best remedy for that
revolving and bloody crime.
When we say that there has been
no hanging done in Wisconsin for
the last quarter Of century, we
mean, of course, to say that none
had been done according to law,
aud did not refer to the sentences
pronounced by Judge Lynch. a
number Of instances have occurred
where murderers have been hanged
by mobs, sometimes after they have
plead guilty or had been fairly tried
by the courts and been proved
guilty.

THE total eclipse Of the sun of
May 18th of this year, is awaited
with much anxiety by astronomers,
it being hoped that then the ques-
ton of the existence of large pla.
net within the orhid of Mercury
may be settled. Professor Watson
believed that he saw such body
during the eclipse OF July 20, 1878,
The search is attended by great
difficulty and liability to error, as it
can only be conducted during the
exceedingly brief interval of totality,
which, in the case Of the next
eclipse, amounts to less than two
minutes at any point on the earth's
surface, while in localities accessible
to scientific expeditions, it is scarce
ly more than one minute.
