injury of the health Of the inhabit-

a partial cause of the typhoid fever

THE UTAH COMMISSION.
Their Second Annual Report in
Full.

II
Washington, 23.-The Board of
Utah Commissioners have sub
mitted their second annual report
TO the Secretary of the Interior.
After making a statement OF the
former legislation Of Congress in
relation to bigamy or pOlygamy,
they say the duties of the Commits
sion appertain only to matters of
registration and election and eligi-
bility to Office, while the punish
ment Of the crime of pOlygamy is
left, as under the lormer law, to the
courts of justice. Under the anti
polygamy act the Commission had
good success at the general election
of August, 1888, in excluding
polygamists from the polls and, so
far as advised, very few if any
illegal votes have been cast in Utah
since the Commission took charge
of the registration and election IN
August, 1883. The enforcement of
the present law against $4,000
polygamists, who have been ex-
cluded from the polls. shows the
act to have been fully and success
fully executed. 1t is thought that
the discrimination between those
Mormons who practise polyg-
amy and those who do
not. while not likely to have much
effect upon elderly men who have
alrs ady a plurality of wives and their
several wives, must have a great
weight upon the young men Of the
Territory, many of whom are am
bilious and aspiring and would not
like to voluntarily embrace political
ostraclsm. The very existence of
the law DISTINGUISHING polygamists
must tend to destroy their influence
whenever it is understood it is to be
a permanent discrimination. The
fact also that it will be necessary TO
the preservation of the political in
fiuence of the "People's party" (as
the Mormons style them5elves), to
have a large bedy of their members
who are not polygamisss, must tend
to weaken the practice Of polygamy,
for every Mormon who takes but
one plural wife loses three votes fer
his party, his own and those of his
two wives. woman suffrage being
established by law in Utah.
Concerning plurality of wives,
the report says: That
doctrine and practice so odlo! s
throughout christendom should
have been upheld so many years
