Occasionally there q an indication that his canvas

which the Republicans can take advantage.
The wrong man for Speaker. Mr. Dunn thinks,
would cost the Democrats the Presidency and
probably the next House also. The Speaker muso
be man opposed to any tariff agitation. Mr.. Dunn
declares that the Democrats have nothing to gain
and every thing to lose by undertaking to tinker
with the tariff while the Senate Is
Republican and O Republican Ia President.
Mr.. Dunn thinks that by keeping their hands
OF the tariff next winter the Democrats viii
probably gain million votes of mon, who. while
they are not In favor of high tariff are by no
means free traders. and all this may be done with
out losing single free trade vote. The meaning
of all this Is that Mr.. Randall will
probably receive at least four votes from Arkansas

If anybody (Mr. Samuel Cox. for instance,)
thinks that Mr.. Samuel j. Randall is sitting
quietly on the fence, and doing nothing to
secure the Speakership of the next Congress,
he is fooling himself sadly. Mr.. Dunn, Con-
gresham from Arkansas, has been talking to
TRIBUNE correspondent at Washington about
the necessity of putting wise Democrat in
the Speakers chair who viii give the cunning
Republicans no advantage, and will keep
down agitation about the tariff In this way,
Mr.. Dunn thinks, the next Democratic can
didate for the Presidency can win million
votes of men who do not want too high a
tariff, but still are not free traders. Mr.. Dunn
is at fault in his logic; but his remarks show
that Mr.. Randall has got far West as
Arkansas, and is probably sure of four votes
from that State.

The Mayor took sound legal position when
he vetoed the Aldermen's demagogic resolution
directing heads of the municipal departments
to let their clerks have a half holiday on
Saturdays during the summer But he need
not have looked so far for basis for his veto.
1t is against public interest that the city offices
should be closed at noon on Saturday. The
rush of business is not likely to be great after
that time during the summer months, and If
the commissioners want to let some of their
clerks off by turns, probably there would be
no complaint But enough Of them should be
kept at their desks to attend to the wants Of
any citizens who desire their services. There
are good many things connected with life in
New-York apt to wound the sensibilities of
kind people, but we don't think the most
tender-hearted philanthropist has eves any
cause to worry lest the employees of the city
government should be overworked.

The authorities Of Castle Garden will have
to assume the entire responsibility Of deciding
whether or not the assisted" Irish immigrants
who have recently arrived at this port are
paupers. 1t is plain enough that they have
the power. and now that the Secretary of
the Treasury has directed Collector Robertson
to act only after the Commissioners have de-
clared that the new arrivals are likely to be-
come public charge, the duty can no longer
be evaded. Judging from the developments
OF yesterday some decision should be made
quickly or most of the "suspectsr will escape
from the Commissioner custody. Mr.. and
Mrs. Mccarthy, who were thought to be pau
pers, have been claimed by their son, who
lives In Hoyoke. Mass. and Mary Sullivan

I" FIGHTING WITH WORDS"

The Boston AdUertiser hits the nail
squarely on the head when it says: "Po-
lygamy is not to be extirpated by heaping
up laws, none of which are properly exc.
cuted. 1t is not the size of the statute
book which determines the orderliness and
well-being of State. The resolution rem.
edy is not sovereign in political ailments
General Rosecrans' scheme of joint reso.
luton proposing an amendment prohibiting
polygamy is welcomed By certain sanguine
observers as practically settling the vexa-
tious problem. Before joining in such
fluctuations it would be well to remember
the familiar facts that laws against crime
do not enforce themselves, and that multi
plying statutes and prohibitory amend.
ments in the face of dormant or dead laws
is simply aggrayating the embarrassment
of the country" We have all along held
to precisely similar views, and recently ex.
pressed the opinion that no laws would be
of any avail until Congress and the author
tiles manifested disposition to enforce
those we now have. The truth is, it will
not be difficult task to extirpate polyg-
amy if once it is determined upon. But
there are political interests involved that
clog all progress in that direction. The
Mormon lobby influence at Washington is
far more potent than people generally give
it credit for. While the people talk, and
the press declaims on this question, the
Mormon wire, puller is secretly at work,
and effectively.

THE MUsSEL SLOUGH SETTLERS The
alta says When the cases of the Mus
sci slough settlers against the Southern
Pacific Land Office, on appeal from the
United States Circuit Court of San Fran
cisco, came before the United States ST.
preme Court few days ago, the Southern
Pacific was represented by Judge Sander
SOP, but the attroney for the settlers made
no appearance, the settlers having abaL-
doned the proceedings. Judge Sanderson
presented his reply to the appeal, where
upon the Supreme Court affirmed the judy
ment of the Court below, thereby settling
the title to the land once and forever. 1t
is fact not generally known, that out of
76 900 acres Of railroad land in the Mussel
slough district, less than 6, 900 acres have
been in dispute, the occupants of the other
20, 900 acres having purchased the land on
the graded terms. The outstanding occu-
pants, who have been the litigants, are now
endeavoring to purchase on the terms orig
inally offered by the railroad company. In
their appeal to the public, presented at the
time of the Celebrated trial, these gentlemen
stated that all they asked, or had ever
asked, was to be allowed possession of the
land until the cases should be finally set
tied by the Supreme Court of the land. 1t
is fact that the Southern Pacific Land
Office has brought no suits for ejectment for
more than two years, or in any way sought
to anticipate the appellate Courts decision
Now the decision has come, the outstand-
ing lsndholders will probably cease to az
peal for public sympathy and make the
best terms they can. When the whole his.
tory of the affair is told, it will prove a
genuine surprise to the public"

TIE ROSY SUNSETS.

The opinion prevails among astronomers,
ana is now generally accepted by scientists,
that the prevailing rosy sunrise and sunset
glowg, noticeable from England to the
Sandwich Islands, or half the circumfer.
enoe Of the globe, are due to the
rays of the sun passing through meteoric
dust or atmosphere which is believed to
nearly surround the globe at this time, as
it is known that the earth for month has
encountered vast number of meteoric
bodies. Professor Brooks describes won.
derful fight of telescope meteors which he
saw, and to which he could apply no ade-
quate description. At this time the earth
Is passing through belt particularly rich
in meteoric matter. a large number of
theories have been advanced to account for
the rosy, almost fiery sunsets of the
month, but none bear the test of reason
ableness so well as that given on the basis
of meteoric atmosphere surrounding the
earth. Very few people grasp an adequate
idea of the immeasurable extent of me-
teoric belts, or of the vast number of
meteors. They surpsss the powers of
human computation. Referring to the
population of space, Professor Ball, As.
trUnomer Royal for ireland, says that while
ihere are but 300 planets known to US, or
estimated, there are rnultitudes of comets,
and countless myriads of meteors and
meteoric atmospheres Professor c. a.
Young declares that the earth annually en-
counters three thousand millions of meteors.
Professor Newton says these vary from
microscopic particles to those of several
hundred pounds in weight. So minute
are the meteoric particles that, though
we may swing for weeks in a meteorio at
mo7phere, only some three hundred me-
teors annually fall upon the earth that
are large enough to be noticeable, and
these do not aggregate to exceed one hun
dred tons weight. 1t is supposed that the
tails Of the sweeping comets are but Putfs
Of meteoric dust, and yet go vast is this
atmosphere that we may be weeks, or
even a month, in passing through the tail
Of comet, and the earth has frequently
been swept by these monster waves Of
meteoric atmosphere. Professor Pierce, an
eminent investigator, arrived at the con-
clusion that the earth receives as much
heat from meteoric causes as from the sun
itself, and, indeed, that the heat of the
sun IS due to an impact of meteors.
SAYS Professor Young il recent article.
60 minute are TIE particles composing me-
teoric atmospheres that "the earth will
grow but one inch in diameter in a hun.
bred million Of yesrs because Of our en-
counter with meteor swarms." We re-
peat, then, that the theory of the peculiar
sunsets and sunrses OF the month, which
accounts for the rosy glow OF the basis Of
the prismatic color being formed by the
passage of the early and late rays Of the
sun through meteoric dust, is the most
thinkable and reasonable. Were the sun
no more powerful in light at noon than at
sunset, we should see the same rich rosy
color at midday also.

AGREEING OFFICIALS

The San Francisco Bulletin asserts that
the Postmaster. General and the President
are not agreed as to the adyisability of
establishing a postal telegraph-that the
Cabinet official is strongly in favor of and
advocates system of postal telegraphy,
while the President, who was once of that
mind, confesses that he has undergone a
change of opinion. We are at loss to
know how our contemporary arrives at this
remarkable conclusion As we read the
Presidents message and the report Of the
Postmaster-General neither one give a pos
tai telegraph system encouragement. In
fact, the President and!the Postmaster-Gen-
eral, from the reading of their documents,
are found to be in accord, and that agree
meat of sentiment is antagonistic to a
postal telegraph system. If our contemp-
orary will examine the report and the
message critically, it will find that it has
been in error in stating premise for the
conclusion that the Executive and the
Postmaster-GeneraIa are at cross purposes.

A FEDERAL BUILDING FOR sACRA-
MENTC.

The telegraph informs US that Sl00 900
has been asked for by bill just introduced
By Mr. G!aseock in the House of Repre-
sentatives for the construction Of building
In this city for Federal uses. 1t is certainly
needed The postofice-the second in i'm
portance in the Ssate-the Receivers and
Registers offices, and the Offices of the H.
ternal Revenue force for district compris-
ing large portion Of this State and all of
Nevada, are in rented apartments in this
city, and none of them are adequate. 1t
would be saving of money on the part of
the Government to erect suitable build
ing here, and 100000 would enable the
proper structure to be pus up. San Fran
cisco has just drawn and forwarded q
memorial asking Congress to order the con-
struction Of new postofice building in
that city. It would be well for the
Trustees and the Board of Trade of Sacra'
mento to supplement the effort made at
Washington in behalf Of Sacramento by
memorials, setting forth the necessity for
the building here, and presenting the sta.
tissics of the revenue, postal and land
