The discussions among the Democrats
growing out of the tariff question ale get
Ing worse. For some reason Mr.. Morrison
has stifened up good deal lately, and now
demands a caucus that shall bind those who
take part in 1t instead of a conference, as
was at FIRST proposed. The Randall men
say If a caucus is determined on instead OF a
conference they will keep out OF it. 1t is
said that the edict of Henry Watterson,
which proposes to read all opponents Of the
tariff bill out Of the party, was submitted
before it was published to Messrs. Carlisle,
Aorrison,. Hurd, Hewitt, Herbert, Black
burn and Dorsheimer.

Andrew Peterson, delegate to Congress in
1882, and an avowed polygamist, is on trial
ct Salt Lake on an Indictment under the
Edmunds act for registering and voting.
Seven Of the jury are polygamous Mormons,
who swore that they believed the Divine
Law was superior to the law of Congress,
but were nevertheless allowed to sit on the
case by Chief Justice Hunter. Peterson's
defence is that his plural marriages were for
eternity and not for time. Doubtless this
defence will sufficiently impress the seven
pslygamous Mormons on the jury to secure
disagreement What is the use of trying
q polygamons Mormon before jury of his
peers In sln?

The Dominion seems to be prolific in scan
daIs THE year. Only a few days ago one of
the ministry was forced TO resign on account
of disreputable performances in one of
the Ottawa hotels, and now two members of
the Ontario legislature declare that they had
been offered $500 ana 5000 respectively if
they would vote for the opposition. They
took the money and then exposed The would
be bribers. OF course there is great SEN
sation and the excitement is not at all d.
vanished by rumor that one of the Do
ninion ministers is at the bottom of the
bribery scheme.

Mayor Cummings of Bangor succeeded in
dropping Ave of The old board of directors of
the Bangor and Piscataquis railroad and
substituting five new men in their places.
Two of the men dropped were Democrats

two, but the reason for dropping the other
three 10 not so obvious. 1t was alleged at

Mr.. George q. Corliss has promptly de-
elined the nomination of the Independent
Republicans of Rhode Island and of the
Democrats as well. The trouble among the
Republicans in that state, as well as can be
made out at this distance, springs from a
controversy over the question of railroad ter
mi0al facilities at Providence. Mr.. Corliss
was selected by the Independents for their
candidate because of his position in regard
TO hisqusstion. he very wisely decided how
ever, thar the question of terminal facilities

In making it such.

The Lasker incident may be considered
closed. The House has adopted Mr. Cur
tiD's resolutions, which say nothing OF any
consequence that was not better said by the
Secretary of S ate, and has listened to
speeches from Mr.. Thomas Ochihree of
Texas and Mr.. S. S. Cox of New York.
Both these gentlemen are humorists, the
former perhaps without intending to be.
Mr., Ochiltree's assault on Bismarck was a
terrible thing, and if it amuses the German
chancellor as much as it did the American
House he may be expected to laugh and
grow fat for some time t. come.
