The Fourth dawned bright and cool,
and at an early hour, ranchmen, their
wives and children commenced to arrive,
and by noon Main street was filed with
well-dressed, thrifty yeomen. At noon
the Bozeman silver cornet band called
the crowd to the large tent on Upper
Main street, where Major S. NJ. Martin
introduced Judge Shannon, of Dakota,
and Judge Mcguire of Bozeman. Judge
Shannon then delivered short but
eloquent address and was followed by
Judge Mcguire. We have been able to
reproduce the following extracts Of local
interest from Judge Maguires speech:

AN OUTRAGE EPIDEMIC.

If this epidemic of brutal men
assaulting little girls is not broken
soon, people will begin to think that
it is time for a contagion of hemp
to set in and keep the former com~
pany. Within a week three human
brutes have been guilty of assailing
girls from four to eight years OF
age, and though but one of the
children was outraged, that half a
dozen of them were not abused is
no fault of the fiendish fellows.
Fortunately for the men arrested
they were gotten into safe quarters
before the knowledge of their crimes
became widespread, otherwise the
people might have found themselves
unable to control their impulses.
If there is crime on earth that de-
serves summary punishment it is
the one that was perpetrated in
Ogden the other day and has
since been attempted both in
that city and in Salt Lake.
We hope that Utah will never again
be the scene of any but lawful
punishments of criminals; at the
same time, we as earnestly hope
that the law will be applied in ali
its vigorous certainly and severity
to the scoundrels who have lately
fallen in its clutches through their
hellish conduct. 1t is necessary
that the statutes be enforced with
determination and without mercy
in these cases, not merely as right
eous punishment upon the guilty
wretches, but as warning to others
who may be afflicted by the mania
that appears to have broken out. If
the courts will do their duty the
people will not have occasion in
future to think that perhaps they
should have stepped in and made
sure that which is sometimes un-
certain when left to the law.

ment next year which will make it
inconvenient for low ward politi-
clans to eat lobster and chicken

that true Bostonian should object
to a government that ate salads
with fingers. In the wide, wide
west where the correct thing in
eating chicken salad is not thor
oughly understood, there could be no
serious objection to aldermen and

MINISTERS EXCLUDED.

Another interesting question has
arisen in Maryland, growing out OF
the late election. 1t seems that the
Marylandser, having an unholy
horror of the temporal influence of
their spiritual advisers, provided In
the constitution that "no minister
or preacher of the gospel, or of any
religious creed or denomination,
shall be eligible as Senator or Dele
gate" at the last election, Mr..
Thomas S. Hodson, local preacher
ofthe Methodist church, was chosen
Senator, and now his opponent
claims the seat under the constitu-
tional prohibition against ministers,
Hodson claims that he was not a
clergyman in full orders, in the
active pursuit of the sacred calling,
but was merely a preacher

bors; that lie .T as licensed 20 preach

OUR LITTLE army seems 10 be
getting it from all sides. Secretary
Lincoln and others of the top Off
GERS have assailed it on account of
the bad character of so many of the
recruits, and the number of deser-
tions, and now the Judge Advocate
General shows deplOrable condi-
tion of things in another direction.
According to his report, during the
year ending September 30, this year,
the general courts martial num-
bered 1885, and the regimental and
garrison courts martial 8,404. From
this it will be seen that the inirac-
tions of military discipline num-
bered nearly half as many as the
whole number of soldiers in the
army. Americans have felt consid-
erable pride in their little army, but
if these unfavorable shOwings con-
tinue the country will have to ad-
NIT that the corruption and demor-
alization that have perm eated the
public service in other departments
of government have found their
way into the military branch Of the
nation. That one-third of the
officers and two-fifths Of the rank
and file of the army should be
court-martialed in one year seems
outrageous, and implies a want of
discipline that ought not to exist.
While the reform is going on it
might IS we'll include the military
as we'll as the civil service.

BANKRUPT LAW.

The Boston bankers are again
moving in the matter of urging
Congress to provide a national law
of bankruptcy. Merchants, bankers
and business men in all the princi-
pal financial and commercial centres
have held meetings, adopted resolu-
tions and signed petitions in the
interest Of the movement, which is
most general throughout the coun-
try. There were bad features about
the old law that was repealed four
or five years ago, notably the enor-
nous fees that were allowed under
it. An estate had TO be large and
comparatively well preserved that
could not be eaten up In fees of
courts, registers and officials. It
was this fact more than any other
that led to the repeal of the law, the
sentiment of creditors being that
an insolvent debtors effects might
as well be retained by him.
self as distributed among a lot
of official CORN Grants who were
lying about watching for something
or somebody to plunder. The abuse
of Official power came to be the rule
rather than the exception. Many
estates that should have paid fair
dividends to the creditors were de-
voured in fees, and in not few in
stances the bankrupt property was
insufficient to satisfy the greedy
charges of the officials.
The past few years, however, have
shown the absolute necessity for u
bankrupt law, whereby ere 1itors
may be protected. if not in securing
their rights, at least in obtaining
their just equalities against crooked
disposition of effects. It is said
that in the absence Of a bankrupt
law such gross abuses have grown
up that nine-tenths Of the assign
ments made within the past
year have been more Or
less fraudulent. This speaks
badly for those engaged in trade,
showing a deplorable condition of
morals in the world of commerce.
Lately, as the readers Of neWspa-
pers are aware, there have been
many large assignments in the east.
AS a rule they appear regular on
their face, but investigation almost
invariably shows erookedness. The
wife, son, brother or other relative
or friend of the failing creditor has
been 'preferred" to the extent of a
large proportion of the estate. Sell
dom does the debtor give up all,
generally putting enough aside in
one way or another to provide for
himself. If the inquiry is deep
enough it usually demonstrates that
the debtor has lost nothing, his own
capital being safely held for him,
and frequently he increases it by
liberal drafts upon his creditors.
While it was largely the fee evil
which caused the repeal of the old
law, it is the fraud that creates the
demand for new law. Tt is quite
probable that Congress will act upon
the matter this winter, and there
being such a thorough understand
ing of what is wanted, it is likely
good law will be enacted. Honest
merchants need the protection, and
dishonest ones should have the op.
portunities to cheat and defraud re-
duced to the narrowest possible
limits.

it is an admirable trait to note that

difficult matter to so adjust his COM
mittees as to give all his democratic
brethren such chairmanships as they
claim and desire. A great many
bills have already been introduced,

relating to pensions and other minor

will skirmish for political advantage.
