MORmuNIsM VS.. MURRAY.

A communication In the Times he-
view says: "Ths animus of the at
tacks now being made upon Cover
nor Murray of Utah, with a view to
prevent his re-appointment, seems to
have had its origin In the bitter and
malignant hate engendersd in the
hearts of the Saints by Murray's fear
less course and scorching denuncia-
tions in his recent report to Congress,
in which he took occasion to thor.
oughly expose the dannable subter-
fugss resortcd to by the polygamous
leaders to further their unholy prac-
tees. Having no opportunity what
ever to found any serious charge
against his official action as Govern
or of Utah, attention has been direct
ed to the time when he held Fed
eral Office in Kentucky, but, If
telegraphic reports are to be relied
upon, this last contemplate attempt
at mud throwing and character
blackening is also doomed to failure.
According to conversation had
with q member of Springer's COM
mittee, to which the accusations con-
corning Murray were referred, the
records are complete vindication of
the Governors action and directly
refute the scurrilous ISLANDERS of the
so. called Saints. 1t is evident that
the Mormons will leave no stsne
unturned, no tree uprooted, no char
acter unsmirchsd, that in any man
ner whatever offers a bar to the sd-
vancement of their law breaking
customs. ideas and practices. Moth
ing short of outright rebellion has
been or will be too mean and un-
manly for them to have recourse to
for the protection of theil debasing
religious rites and observances-
beastly orgies. Though there can
be no concesling the fact that Con-
gress has upon its hands a difficult
task of accomplishment, and that
every effort SO tar made to abate this
evil and relic of barbarism, has been
but Q futile and abortivc attempt,
yet notwithstanding all this there Is
but little question that the Morm"ns
are really digging their own graves
in so acting as to keep the attention
of all parties directed to their move
ments. If the ordinary and peace
full measures of law so utterly fail to
effect the objects desired, and the oft
threatened torcible resistance ever is
made, the believers in the doctrine
that emanated from 3righam's harem
will find to their sorrow that the
Lord will not prevent the power of
the United states from wiplng out
and literally apnihilatiDg their pet
institution"

who seeks to be licensed as Master
of steam vessel on inland waters as
follows: 81 know nothing impera.
tive in the reason of things in natu-
raj law, in public policy or in good
morals, why woman if she is skilled
honest, intelligent, hardy and prudent
enough, may not have command OF
vessel and navigate it, and manage
and conduct the business carried an
with it. To do this is to be the mas
ter of a vessel. | see no reason in
the written or unwritten law why
Mrs. Miller may not lawfully demand
an examina ton, and, if she prove
herself duly qualified, have a vessel.
Let the Local Inspectors, putting
behind them all thought OF her sex,
without antagonism and without
partially, make dilligent inquiry as
to her character, examine the proofs
offered as to her capacity, her expert
ence, her habits of lite, and, if salts
fed that she can be safely intrusted
with the duties of q master of u
steam vessel, let them grant her a
license"

THE Legislature in British
Colum bia has passed two anti Chi.
nese bills, one to regulate the Chinese
population in British Columbis, and
the other to prevent the immigration
of Chinese into British Columbia.
The first provides that every China.
man over fourteen years of age shall
pay an annual tax of $50 to be levied
by distrsint. Every employer of
Chinese must retain his license in
his possession and produce it when
required to the inspector appointed
for the purpose. No person Is per
mitted to remove dead bodies with.
out permission of the Provincial
Secretary, The use of opium is for
hidden. There are stringent health
regulations, and heavy fines and pen
alties for the infringement of the
provisions of the Act are provided,
recoverable in summary way before
Justice of the Peace. The writ of
conditions is taken away and the
burden of proof in all cases is on the
defendant. An appeal from the de-
cision of a Justice of the Peace is
only on the merits and before jury
The second bill forbids the entry of
Chinese into British Columbia under
Il penalty, and any person assisting
in bringing them into British CoIum
bis is liable to penalty of 5000 for
every offense. The provisions for the
temporary absence OF present resi-
dents provide that they must have a
certificate with photograph attach
ed. The Act is not to apply to ship
wrecked mariners, but it might bet
ter have been so worded.
