THE proceedings of the Mormons will
bear watching at the present time. They
are making arrangements to boycott the
christian citizens and TO orender the Edmunds
law imperative. Trouble has TO come 10
Utah one of these days, for our republican
institutions and the domination OF a priesily
hierarchy are utterly irreconcilable. and be-
fore one Of them can be operative in Utah
the other must be excluded The only
eHectual plan with the tricky priests is the
adoption of law that shall declare what, in
the United States Territories, constitutes
marriage, what officials or magistrates shall
have authority 10 preside at the civil con-
tract, and also to require that such contracts
shall be officially registered. With such
marriage Law it would be known who were
married, and if persons marrisd more than
once they. would be prosecuted as criminals
in the usual way. 1t ia our defective MAJ
riage system that gives the polygamists op-
portunity 10 commit crime in a way that
defes easy discovery and proof. The moral
question involved in proper system of cele-
brating marriage is worthy Of more attention
on the part of the religious world than has
yet been given TO it.

1 FINAL ACTION REACHED ON THE IFER AMI
Hl,RBoR BILL
WASHINGTON, July 29.-There was spec
iai meeting of the cabinet to-day TO consider
the river and harbor BILL All the members
were present except Secretary Chandler.
The bill was discussed and final action de-
cided upon. The greatest secrecy is main
tanned as 10 the conclusion reached There
was an understanding between the President
and the members of his cabinet that nothing
whatever should be divulged as 10 the result
OF to-dsy's deliberations. One fact, however
is known in this connection, that the Presi-
dent will send a communication to the House
of Representatives on the subject on Monday
next. The preparation OF this message has
been intrusted to the secretary OF state.
While the course of'sction decided upon will
not be positively known until officially COM
municated 10 the House, the general impress
sion is that the President will approve the
bill and exercise his Discretionary power in
directing the expenditure of the money appro-
priated. Although the opinion above stated
Is one which finds most general acceptance,
great confidence is expressed by prominent
of the bill that the President will
veto it outright. They generally expect,
however, that the veto will be accompanied
with the suggestion that be will approve
a duplicate of this bill on condition |
that it be amended by the addition
of a clause comforting upon him express
authority to exercise his own discretion in
'xpending the various amounts appEopri-
ated. Several senators said they had re-
,eiged infornRtion which they deemed en- :
irely trustworthy (slthough they disclaimed |
having obtained it direct from the President |
" his cabinet advisers) that the decision |
cached at the cabinet meeting was in favor |

ABUSES by the police induced the Legisla-
ture of New York State TO pass law that "a

hard upon them. II may be all very well for
dottors to have night-bell, and be rupg out

When l wrote you last, our cooperative
store had just paid October l, 1884, a

"BosS" OLIVER
Renominated for sheriff by the Repub-
can COnventfon at LflfIe Rock.


Special to the Appeal
LITTLE ROCK, July 29.-The Republicans
held a County Convention this afternoon,
Boss Oliver running the machine, being nom-
mated for sheriff. A great many colored
people are in the city, but there has been no
serious disturbance yet, although they are
very impudent. Mayor Kramer's procla-
nation for the arrest of all persons carrying
concealed weapons claiming to be deputy
sheriffs, had the effect of cooling the most
rampant Radicals. The mayor says there
can be no professions without the permission
of the city authorities; Oliver says the col
ored people shall parade if they desire. The
mayor will not refuse if they ask it, and the
people hold that consent should be requested.
The Democrat this evening says the city au-
thorities must be respected, and if any sher-
iff or deputy attempts to override them they
will suffer for it.
Democratic primaries are being held in
all the city wards tonight.

a sword by negro is recovering.
