cident either directly or indirectly TO the
Gentle interests of mining and smelling.
More than one-half the tonnage carried dur
log the past twelve years was directly due TO
ores and smelling. But for the Gentilcs in
Utah the purchases Of Mormon merchants
wouldn't be worth caring for. This prosper
ity the Mormons tried to prevent. Their
priests pronounced curses on Mormous en-
gaging in mining, and expelled from the
church those who disregsrded their orders.
Every legislature has expressed hostility to
it, and only the governors veto has made it
possible to carry on the business. T he Gen
tiles have held their own nevertheless, but
they could not have done so had Utah been
a State instead of Territory. By the aid
OF the United States Courts and the governor
the Mormon legislation has been sufficiently
centralized TO keep Utah AmericaDized in
come degree. Give effective aid TO United
States authority, check the crime, and stop
the exercise Of illegal power by congress
sional action, and in five years the Gen
tiles will be the majority. They ask from
the Mormons simply submission to equal
laws. This done, trade would SO increase
that business and railroads would, in ten
years, realize four times the present profits,
and the Mormon problem would be
solved without any breach Of the peace.
What is wanted is to take political power
out of the hands of the polygamists. Then
they will be succeeded in few years by a
younger and different class of men, who will
succeed the polygamists as light dispels
darkness at the break of day.

wuATAsALrLAKE PAPER SAYS.

The Salt Lake Tribune, a paper that is
wormwood and gall to the polygamists,
asserts that the sc entities" are on the way to
take the lead in that benighted land. 1t
says that the Gentle vote is small, owing to
the willy management with which the Nor
mons regulate the registration OF the voters,
and this small vote has led TO the impression
that the non-Mormon population is much
smaller than it really is. The Mormon con-
ference returns of April last, compared with
the census in the following year, shows an
aggregate of thirty-two thousand people in
the Territory not claimed as Mormons. In
round numbers the total population was one
hundred and forty-four thousand in June,
III aking the Gentiles as one to three and a
half; they are really about oue-fourth of the
whole The brute force is with the Nor
mons, the intelligence and enterprise with
the Gentiles. Including mines and rail-
ways, more than one-half the property of
the Territory is owned by Gentiles, as is also
most of the money invested in stock, trade,
merchandise, and mines and their produce.
The Gentiles have invested in churches,
schools, hospitals and charitable Institutions,
and their sustenance. Though at present
IN the minority, that minority is, there
fore, neither feeble nor contempt
ible. Without Gentle energy, with its
mining and smelling, railroads would
be a poor investment in Utah. The Nor
mons ride to their spring and fall conferences
at half fare, and they send out a lew egg,
chickens, and such truck, but z train each
way once week would do all their business.
1t is susceptible OF proof that three-fourths
OF the railroad business done in Utah is in

The Ins1Ifed Flag Drops.

salt Lake Tribune, February 1Ith.
Yesterday afternoon in the legislative
council there was a long debate on the vari-
GUS amendments TO the report rendered by
Messrs. Thatcher and Wells in reply to the
governors messsga. Among other things
there was a motion to strike out clause
which asked the government TO exercise
proper fOrbearsnce toward the MormOns.
gued that the Mormors had nothing to ask
oil the government in the shape OF forbear-
snce. Said he: Didn't We come out here
years ago and raise the flag OF the great
American Union on Ensign peak; must we
now turn round and apologize to the govern
ment for planting its flag on these barren
wilds?' After this vigorous appeal the mo-
ton was lost and the council decided that
they wanted no forbearance from [ ncie Sam.
A curious accident, however. took place at
this time In front of the building, about
sixty feet from the place where
Thatcher was speaking, the United States
flag waved mslestically, until Thatcher
attempted to make the old banner Of the
Republic cover the crimes Of MormOnism.
Then the old flag weakened. Some OF the
gear becoming loose, ii came down to half
mast, and there hung until some parties no.
ticing the fact, sent the sergeant-at-arms out
to hoist it again The dag dropped TO half
mast out Of respect TO its own memory,
vher Il came 10 realize that il was buried
under such an insult. The wonder is that
the blnshing red did not cover the space in
its folds generally occupied by the blue and
white.

A Daughters CRIME.
She Deliberately Murders Her Father
Her Mother and Sister Implicated.

Rock RAPIDS, IA, February I6.-Before
the coroner's jury who are investigating the
murder of John Lanahan, who was killed
while sitting near his window Saturday night,
Maggie, his Oldest daughter, confessed that
she did the shooting. She also implicated
her mother, her sister Anna and the latter's
lover, young man named Birch. The girl
testified that it had been agreed between
them some time ago to put the old man out
of the way" at the earliest opportunity.
Birch furnished the pistol, and when her
father came home from farmers club meet
ing and was about to sit down she stepped up
behind him and fired, killing him
instantly. She then arranged the body
so as to appear as if some one
had shot him through the window while her
sister Anna went out and broke the glass.
AS to the motive for the crime, Maggie testi-
fed that Birch wanted to marry Anna, and
her father had refused. He also did not pro-
vide well for them. The mother and other
daughters corroborated this testimony Birch
at one time lived with the family, and was
driven from the house by Lanahan, who sus-
pected him with criminal intimacy with his
wife and daughter. All parties implicated
are under arrest and the greatest excitement
prevails.

A Workman, Texas, correspondent of the
Salt Lake Tribune says a new sect-the Holt
ness Bands troubling that neighborhood.
The leader is Robert J. Haynes. formerly a
Presbyterian preacher, but turned out for
wild fanaticism. He then commenced
preaching specification and holiness on his
own account at Waco, Corsicana and Dallas,
Texas. He and his dupes teach sancti6ca-
ton to the point Of being as spotless as the
Lamb of God. They heal the sick by laying
on of hands, have spiritual wives, marry
without license, and are not bound more to
one woman than another; have visions, and
are taken by the jerks ana cast on the floor,
there they lie PROSTATE and insensible for
hours, then arise and tell of the wonders
that have been opened TO them; they will never
die, but zee the Lord with their present eyes;
they have neither baptism nor communion;
they meet in a tabernacle where they heal
and cast out devils; they have no discipline,
the spirit directs them how to act. Some
have sold houses and lands and deserted all
to join the band, husband leaving wife and
wife husband. They have as little as posi-
bic to do with the outside world, but indi-
viduals of them have been sent inside an in
sane asylum. Their leader is now beating
up for converts in New York and Brooklyn.
