DOUGLAS COUNTY WARRANTS.


The character of the bogus indebted
ness Of Douglas county, sold by Charles
i. Mccoy to Thomas II. Parsons, of
Worthington, Minn., in July last. is not
generally known. We have recently
seen a sworn copy of the record of the
proceedings of the commissioners of that
county. up to the early part of Septem-
Der last, from which it appears that but
about 81 400 Of Indebtedness was author
lied by that body, upon which warrants
could be issued by whatever of authority
was vested in it, and these were issued
Us follows: 81 ,O09 to Bowen l. Kingsbury
for books and stationary, and the balance
to w. H. Brown, A. B. Brown, Frank
Neese and E. b. Hoyt for salary, fees,
DC. All the warrants issued for these
debts are believed to be in the hands of
the Merchants National bank Of st. Paul,
hence the 5000 taken back by Mccoy
from Parsons, under the criminal code Of
this territory, are forgeries. This con-
clusion is supported by . warrant Of
Douglas county bearing date July 18th,
1881, No. 434, registered No. 4l9, Tor up
wards Of $500, duly signed by the clerk

The committee on election of the
house has considered the Campbell Can.
non case. Tho opinion is current that
the committee will report in favor of
sending the election back to the people
of Utah. 1t is doubtful if such report
would be accepted by the house. Many
of the best lawyers agree that the fact
of Cannon's polygamous record is not
ground upon which the house can legally
denv him admission, while it is quite
within the province of the house to ex-
pei him on that account. 1t is urged
that should he now go back to the peo.
pie he would undoubtedly be reelected
by as large majority as before, and the
result would he rather to add to his

Should he, however, be first seated, and
then by two thirds vote be expelled,
he could not again be admitted.
The subject of compulsory retirement,
which has been brought before congress
by Mr.. Butterworth's bill, is being agi-
tated among the military men in the
west. From recent letters received ut
Washington from army officers, and from
conversations with several of those sta
toned there, it is learned that there is
almost q unsnlmous desire in the army
to have bill pass retiring all the officers
from active service who have attained
tho age Of 62. This feeling is not con,
fined to the commoner ranks, who will
be benefited by the law, but is enter.
tained by tho older ones, and petition
recently forwarded to Washington urging
the passing Of the bill contained l,4OO
names OF military men, many of them
being men who would, if the bill passed,
be retired at once, or in few years
The arguments adduced in favor of the
bill are many, but the chief ones are that
by making retirement mandatory, instead
OF discretionary, all would be treated
alike. and there would be no chance fol
tsvoritism or political prejudice. The
officers would know what to look forward
to. instead Of being in constant uncer.
tainty, and the army would stand on the
same ground as the navy in tho matter
