aREAr UNDERTAKINGS.

This is the era OF gigantic undertakings,
great public and international works, like the
Suez and Panama canals and the filling of part
OF the desert OF Sahara. Even the widest sug
gestions are entertained as possible, and the
only question in bar to any of them is one of
money. To be numbered in this list is the
suggestion of the Albuquerque Journal, that
by building dam across the canyon Of the
Big Colorado lake larger than Lake Erie
can be formed. The canyon at several points
is 5000 feet deep and very narrow. 1t drains
vast Mediterranean country, equal in ex-
tent to half of Europe. The land which could
be flooded by the building of this rather ex-
fensiye mill-dam is arid, desert and worth
less. Blythe creation of this inland sea
moisture would be formed and rains made
frequent. Along its shores cities would build
and prosperous States find commercial CEN
tiers. 1t would take less money to build this
dam than it has to widen the mouth of the
Mississippi river, and the benefits would be
much greater. "This," says the Journal,
"may seem folly TO some people, but the stu
dent of the condition of the great Utah basin
will at once see the utility of the proposed

The Indianapolis Sentinel sums up the
responsibilities of the Republican party, and
among them we find enumerated the giant
railroad jobs and jobbers, whisky rings, Peru
Wan rings, the credit mobilier and the sutler
combination for the robbery of private sol
diers. For twenty years the Republican
party has held sway. 1t has debauched all
things once of good report. Nothing has
escaped its Communicating touch. 1t has
partisanized the supreme Judiciary of the
republic, and it has done this Infamous work
that Republican infamies might be shielded in
some measure from the peoples Indignation.
In ever department of the government
thievery, robbery, pronissry. corruption and
rottenness exist. In the Washington Jail a
bowling Republican assassin; in the White

Star-route thieves as Brady and Dor

and universal debauchery. And matters are
still going from bad to worse. Certainly it
is about time to retire the Republican party.

NASHVILLE, May 10.--Miss Anna Ring

ner of College and Monroe streets, died
Tuesday morning at O'Clock, from the eff
fects of a dose of arsenic taken Monday
night at 10 o'clock. She went to drug
store on Monday afternoon and bought the
arsenic. Her brother was in the store at
the time, but thinking she was purchasing
then went home, and her mother, seeing
something was wrong with her, asked what
was the matter. She replied, Nothing"
and then went to the hydrant, where it is
supposed she took the poison, and COM

done, she said she had taken arsenic,
and that they would find a letter
which would explain all DIR. Hag-
gard was called in, but could do moth

misery, she died yesterday morning as above
stated The letter found in her room was
addressed to her sister, Mrs. Mary Smith.
In the letter she gave as the reason for COM

She said she was engaged to Mr.. Eberhardt,
but he had formed other alliances and was
to be married in a short time to another
woman, and rather than suffer in the way
she had for the past week she thought death
was sweeter than life. She wished for Eb-

Mys.eriou. Double Tragedy.

NKw YORK, May 10.-Frank Il. Ames,
captain of the ship L. j. Morse, of Bangor,
Me, and Mary l.. Ames, his wife, were
found dead in their room at clearinghouse
kept by Mrs. NJ. Z. Ames, No. 307 West

was in bed with a bullet-hole. in her head.
Captain Ames was on the floor, shot through
the head. A small Smith & Wesson revolver,
with all but tive chambers filled, was lying
on his body. The couple went TO this house
about three weeks ago. Nothing unusual
was observed in their conduct. They seemed
happy and contenteel, and were last seen
alive Monday night, when a boy took a
lemonade 10 their room at the captains
call. They did not appear to-day, but
no one, it seems, made any inquiry as to the
cause of the non-appearance until this even
ing, when L. J. Morse, capitalist OF Ban
gor, called to see Mrs. Ames, who was his
sister. 1t was on going to Ames's room to
inform them of the visit of Mr.. Morse that
the tragedy was discovered. Nothing was
found in the house or effects of the dead
couple which would throw any light on the
mystery. The only reason that can be
assigned is the iIl-health of Mr. Ames. Mr..
Morse said he had been in bad health for
a number of years, but never had any do

Maxruder,s wopderrnl story.

The Chicago Tribune's Washington special
says: THE Tribune last week had specials
from Tucson, Ariz-, describing the murder,
by the Apaches whom Forsyth pursued, of a
company of miners and capitalists from Phil
adelphia and Washington. 1t appears that
the only one who escaped was young Magru-
der, of Georgetown, ID. c. His wife, who is
here at the house of her brother, Henry d.
Cook, has received a letter which gives the
first detailed account of the massacre and
escape. The letter tells wonderful story.
Mr.. Magruder states that they were am
pushed by the Indians on the 3lst of April,
and all the party killed except Captain Fink
and himself. Captain Fink saved his life by
falling into narrow ditch where the grass
was high on both sides, and the Indians failed
to find him. Magruder was within a few
yards of Mr.. Risque when the Indians
shot him in the head, killing him almost
instantly. He was riding a fine horse
When they left Lordsburg Magruder was
laughed at for taking his rifle. When the
Indians attacked he was fred at from all
sides. One Indian close by him fired at his
back, but missed him, and Magruder turn
ing quickly, fired and saw the Indian fall.
After all the party were killed Magruder re-
treated, facing the Indians at every tree and
bush behind which he could find shelter,
and when he had gotten his breath he ran
again, and every time he ran the Indians
opened fire on him. There were twenty
government Indian scouts in the attacking
party, and he was covered with dust from
their bullets several times. Magruder ran
nearly a mile up n steep mountain trail,
dropping behind one tree and then another
until he reached two miners, Wood and
Antaine by name, who were camping there.
Wood had a rifle and AntaIne a Elk
shooter. Several shots were exchanged
after Magruder reached the miners,
but they succeeded in reaching shelter
in thicket of scrubby timber and some
rocks. Magruder considers his escape moth
ing short of miracle. At times he almost
lost hope, yet he prayed and fought hard,
and says God has shown him that with Him
nothing is Impossible. When Magruder
reached Clifton in the night he saw light
burning in house and went in. The men
stared at him as if he were a ghost. He found
that he was in carpenter shop and they
were making his coffin, and armed men,
none of whom he knew, were out hunting
for his body, having found the bodies of
the rest of the party late in the afternoon
and brought them in."

AssassInated al Church.

Wu.MINGToN, N c., May 10.-Intense ex-
element was created here last night by the
deed of jealous lover who chose the scene
of a revival as the place in which to assas-
sinate his rival, who was enjoying the society
of the woman they both loved. At The time
a revival was going on at the Ebeneztr Bap-

MEMPHIS APPEAL
REPUBLICAN EXPECTATIONS.


A special TO the New York Sun states
that the National Republican Committee, with
the help of the astute Chandler, expect to
capture no less than twenty-five Republican
members from the South. The pins
are already set up for it-eight in
Virginia, two in North Carolina, two in Lou
isians, three in Tennessee, and so on. Mr..
Malone is working very faithfully to fulfill
his contract so far as Virginia is concerned.
Already the preliminary arrangements are
being made for sending Kellogg to Congress
from Louisiana district. The Republican
Committee will not allow the grass to grow
so high that it will need moving. Their
work begins at once. By and by the Demo-
cratic Committee may find it worth while to
go through something more than Perfunctory
formalities, but if we have our usual luck it
will be too late.

A GOVERNORS APPEAL.
A Letter 10 the Secretary Of The Interior
on the Outbreak,
Asking for the Removal and Dfsarma-
ment of the Savages.

Tucson, May 6.-The Star says that Gov
ernor Tritle, of Arizona Territory, addressed
a letter to the secretary of the interior, set
ting forth the fact that on account of the
frequent outbreaks of the Apaches it is i'm
portant that they should be removed from
the Territory. He states that under the reg
ulations which now prevail it has been found
impossible TO prevent their murderous raids
upon the lives and property of the people.
Under this condition of affairs the settlement
of the country adjacent to the mountains is
out of the question. Necessarily immense
districts containing valuable minerals and
valleys adapted to agriculture are left with
out inhabitants. Those who do venture upon
them in nine cases out of ten fall sacrifice
to the savages. But if the removal of the
Indians cannot be effected the governor in
sists that their arEs shall be taken from
them and the savages rendered powerless to

NEW ORLEANS AND WEST INDIA
TRADE

No American possessed OF just pride in
his country and hearty desire for its well
fare can look over the map of this continent
with the reflection that the important ma
tiesa.ii.is= south of It are supplied with pro
ducts we desire to export by Europeans in
stead of by our own nation. With tariff
favorable to our trade, and with power to
buy our own shipping where we can buy it
cheapest, with our splendid resources we
could do an immense business that is now,
by our national impolicy, thrown into the
hands of rivals. Under these circumstances
it gives us pleasure to notice that New
Orleans is awakening to sense OF the rich
harvest which lies within her grasp. Just
now commerce with the important island Of
Jamaica is exciting attention in the Cres-
cent City. That island has an import and
export trade that amounts to $15,000,-
600 a year. 1t trades with Halifax
and some of the Eastern cities, but New
Orleans is nearer and more accessible than
the other points, and ought evidently, from
its geographical position, and from the vast
resources open to it along the Mississippi
river and its tributaries, to be able to out
rival anything they can do. Two or three
influential New Orleans houses are attempt
ing, at the present time, to renew commercial
relations with Jamaica, and their advances
have met very satisfactory reception. The
New Orleans Times has been at the pains to
ascertain what sort OF trade the city can do
advsntageously with Jamaica, and learns
the following, among other facts: That the
Jamaica market will take four-Southern
brands preferred-hog products, which New
Orleans can receive direct by river; common
cotton goods, which Southern mills can sup
ply in abundance; lumber, especially South
ern, which Jamaica prefers; canned goods,
which are in great demand, and which are
plentiful throughout the Western country;
common dry goods and common hard
ware are also in demand. Once get an
active commerce in operation with Jamaica,
and it would increase indefinitely. AS
Jamaica learned the vast resources Of the
Mississippi valley it would draw upon them
more extensively, and it could find no coun-
try able to supply her with feed products at
as favorable scale of prices. Nor would
the trade be confined to that island alone
Hayti, Cuba, Trinidad, Barbados and other
places would prove profitable and permanent
customers. Beside its other advantages the
semi-tropical climate of New Orleans adapts
1t especially TO the gull trade with the trop-
les. Let but an active West India and South
American and Mexican trade spring up with
New Orleans and what an immense mart of
commerce would the Mississippi country be-
come The river would be crowded with
vessels carrying Southern fruits and other
products of the country, and bringing down
meats and breadstufis and animals for ship
ment to the tropical markets. Every city
on tine banks of the river would become the
center of an important trade, and the many
advantages possessed by Memphis could not
fail to attract commerce and make our city

HOW PLURAL WIVES RI GARD PO-
I.YRAMK.


The Salt Lake Tribune is powerful oppo-
nent of the Mormons, not as religious sect,
for the right of those people to entertain
such sentiments as they choose to adopt the
Tribune freely grants-but as breakers of the
law by the practice of the crime OF polygamy.
In its issue of Wednesday last that paper
expresses little faith in the Edmunds law as
a sHppressor of that crime, but has strong
faith in the influence of public opinion as a
corrector of the evil. 1t says Utah is
country of great possibilities, and that Salt
Lake would become a hourishing and
wealthy city if it were freed of polygamy.
So strong even now is the influence of
opinion upon the people there, so much
dreaded is the stigma that polygamy entails
upon its victims, that "there is not Nor
man, man or woman, who does not feel that
polygamy is a disgrace and shame"
This is manifested everywhere in
the actions of plural wives and their
children. A second, third or fourth wife viii,
whenever she can, pass herself of for first
wife, and the children when they have OPP
portunity will claim to be the children of a
first wife. This state of feeling among the
Mormons is a very important circumstance
in considering the polygamy problem. The
existence of such a feeling shows that if our
government carries out earnestly well drawn
up laws, and holds the law breakers to strict
accountability, the system will break down.
Such laws, faithfully administered, would
give the feelings of wife and children the
support necessary to sustain action on their
part in consistence with those feelings. At
thor -av,,o-st-e,css aG~'-'-. = hr's-
band and father can be treated by him, when
he proposes to take more wives, as acts of
disobedience. With the power of the law
on their sides, their opposition to his wishes
would stand on the ground of obedience to
tbs law. They could object that he was not
justified in placing his family in priyatien
by rendering himself liable to arrest and i'm
prisonment, and SO leaving them without sup
port. The more intelligent and conscientious
Mermons, the Tribune assures us, feel them
selves ensnared by polygamy, and, as things
stand, they do not know how to break the
meshes that entangle them. Let the active
opposition of the law come 10 the support of
men who are urged by the priesthood TO in
crease the number of their wives, and those
indisposed to do so would have an argument
to oppose to such a step which the priest,
with all his craft, would not be able to sur
mount. The Edmunds law will at least
point out what is the precise kind of legis-
lation required. When that is sscertained a
proper effort on the part of the people will
secure the kind of legislation the polyga-
mists cannot overcome.
