CHICAGO, Sept. 21.-Gov. Murray OF
Utah 10 in town. Speaking Of the results
following the practical application Of the
Edmunds bill, Murray said: ut turned
out Just as I expected. Congress would
not take the bull Of polygamy squarely by
the horns for fear Of doing the Mormons
injustice, and consequently. through fear
Of doing wrong, it failed to do what WAS
right. l believe that the Commission
under Edmun1s faithfully executed the
terms Of the statute in the d~isfranchise-
msnt Of polygamists, but it had no effect
upon tho result. Not beyond 20 per cent
Of the Mormons are polygamists. but the
remaining Mormons, or monogomists. as
they are called, are largely in excess OF the
Gentle population, and as they stand
ready to do the bidding Of the Mormon
Church, they can easily out-vote the Cen
tiles and control the election OF the men,
beers of the Territorial legislature"
els Mormonism on the increase ?"
Eyes; Mormon immigration into Utah
is very large and growing. Probably the
increase is in proportion Of three to one OF
the Gentiles. They are also settling IN
adjacent States and Territories. In fact.
Mormonism is to-day broader, deeper and
stronge than ever before. It. 10 aggressive
in every sense Of the word, and must be
dealt with in an aggressive manner.
The Governor further said that from
Louisville he would go to Washington and
make . written report on the condition OF
affairs in the Territory to the Secretary OF
the Interior.

permission to land certain Chinese sailors
recently brought to that port. He said the
matter had not been brought to the notice
Of the department officially. but that he had
read . telegram from New York this morn
ing asking whether the decision had been
ton. He replied that the question had
been decided by Judge Potter in New York
last August, the latter holding in the case
OF J. Fork, . Chinese sailor on the British
steamship ~Pembrokeshire, that Chinese
sailors are placed by law on the same foot
ing - other Chinese laborers, and could
not be landed. James said that 3 similar
decision III been reached Ut San Francisco

Department could not construe the law,
that being . matter for the courts. He
thought Judge Potter's decision WA all
that WAS necessary in this particular case.
