be q nonogomist Legislature. Being
asked rs TO what advantages would ao-

unhesitstingly replied that he consid.

preferable of tho two. 81 admire

"if admire him at all, who enters your
house and does the robbing, more than
his chums, who stand guard and 'divvy
the spoils. | therefore think such a
change as ia expected will not be for the
better" Governor Murray does moi
think the Edmunds act will solve the
polygamy problem. Even If admins
tered to its utmost, 1t would fall short
of checking its growth. In his opinion
polygamy had not decreased any since il
went into elect.

SENATOR COKE is prompt and timely
with his resolution for legislative COM
mittee TO investigate the soldiers Or
phans' schools, and inquire how many
of the inmates are there without au-
thority of law. His attention was called
to the matter by the disclosure of the
fact that the man who ran against him
for senator, and who has a salary of
81 500 per year, had his children in these
schools clothed, fed and educated at
the public expense and he is convinced
that other abuses exist in the admins
tration of this system which should no
longer be only vaguely limited at, but
be fully inquired into and made known
to the people of the whole state. Sena-
tor Coke says truly that no honorable
soldier will object to any such inquiry.
The management of these schools
has been the suject of much scan
dal and their continuance so many
years after the war has ended and long
after the last child born during the re
bellion is ineligible for admission,
strengthens the suspicion that they are
maintained for private profit and not for
any warrantable public purpose.

dead body and declared that the shooting
was purely accidental.

adopt by enactment the suggestion of

treasury shall be diverted into the
