the legislature the statement Of well
known citizen who, the other day, sex
amined. Just through curiosity, the tax
books Of a certain county in this state
and found that one man returned proper
" at about $4,000, TOR which the said
citizen would give him 100000. That
another returned 100000 worth of pro-
perry at less than 100000. Another gen.
tleman stated that the total mining in
vestment and property Of the State-irOH
and coal mines, gold mines and copper
mines-is returned at $127 900, when ten
millions cash, nor, perhaps, twice that,
would buy the mines"
1t does seem that such facts would
attract the attention Of even an ordinary
LEGISLATOR. The citizen who honestly
paws his tax, after reading such facts,
and remembering thar the Legislature

The Utah Commission don't like being
criticised. The recent attacks upon them,
i'm which the charge was made that they
have accomplished nothing, have led them
in file defense with the Interior Depart
mept. They have good, fat offices, and
criticism, therefore, alarms them. They
arp afraide that the commission will be
abolished. They say that they have eN-
cIuded l5.000 pOlygamists from the polls
and an polygamis!s from office. They,
however. privately admit that the Ed
munds law is a failure, and they Vii! re-
commend additional legislation. Polyga-
my will never be checked as long as Con-

II you are resident of Augusta, TWEEN
ty-one years of age, next Thursday you
can vote for county officers.
If you are Democrat you will wish to
vote for Democrat.
Some of the candidates who are asking
you to vote for them are not Democrats.
On the contrary if there is anything they
hate politically it is Democrat.
Some of these applicants for your votes
were once Readjusters, then became Coali-
tionists and are now Republicans. Why do
we say SO? Because they are supporters of
Arthur, the Republican President, and be-
cause their leader. Governor Cameron, has
just openly declared for the Republican
party in 1884. These candidates them
selves will show you they are Republicans;
they will vote for Republican In their
ranks over you or any other Democrat.
Then, you ask, why are they running for
Office in Democratic county? 1t is be-
cause they eepect the support of the Repub-
leans. Without that support they would
not be in the field. And even with that
support they would rot be in the field in
Augusta county. il it was not for the hope
that you, q Democrat. may be induced to
lock arms ,osth the Republicans and lift a
supporter of Arthur into office over the
head Of Democrat. And this in the ban

is now assuming national Importance
The visit of Gen. Malone to the Norfolk
navy yard to ELK things has brought out a
card from Hon. J. n. Dezendorf. the
straight out Republican candidate for
County Treasurer, who calls the attention
Of President Arthur to the fact that Gen.
Malone while there pnt in motion q levy
of per cent. on the wages Of all Federal
employees to aid the Coalition ticket in
defeating the Republican ticket. Mr.. De-
zendorf, it is also reported. "has taken
care to lay the facts before the President
and the members Of the Cabinet IN a way
that the information cannot be ignored. ~
