The last census in Chill presents an
anomaly that is pulling the people
very much. The married population
of the country, distinct FROM widows
and widOwers, is stated to be sos, 3t2.
OF course, half of this number, or 800,
1856, ought to be males, and half fe-
males. But such is not the case, ac-
cording to the census report, which
says the married persons consist Of
300, 577 males and 267 735 females.
This leaves 2,S42 married men with
out visible wives.

AND now Augusta, Ga. has got the
anti-Chinese fever. 1t seem that for
several years past the Chinese have been
flocking to Augusta in considerable num-
bers, and have adopted the advocationa
usual with Cinnamon in this country.
The anti-Chinese virtue of Augusta seems
to have been aroused from reading the
accounts OF the anti-Chinese agitation in
Washington Territory, and not from any
particular dislike to the Chinese there.
In the West it is said that the Chinese
are the enemies OF the working classes,
while in Augusta they are said to have
many friends among the lower classes.
This is owing to some climatic influence,
no doubt.

another field. Ii we remember rightly.

with truly fashionable instinct came to

J. Randall spoke about the Admnistra-
ton, and gave it great praise. We are
glad OF this, because the Administration
is worthy Of endorsement; and the out
spoken endorsement OF a man OF Ran
dall's prominence in the party will do
much TO quiet the murmurs OF some mem
bers OF the party. He referred to the
charges against the Democratic parry, and
told how it had been said that ii
the party were to come into power 1t
would tear down in place OF building up.
These charges have proven false, and
everything that has been done has been
done to build up and not to pull down.
He said that Grover Cleveland had been
called slow, but that he is building up the
party in strong and firm manner, and
that the thing for the party to do is to
wait patiently and that they would see
Cleveland accomplish the work which the
Republican party had promised for rycars,
but could never do. This speech of Ran
dall's will serve very well for a guide to
indicate the manner in which Cleveland's
work will be received by the Democrats in
Congress, for Randall is leader there.
No doubt the people do endorse the Adj
minstration, but so long have politics
been run by bosses that the mind OF the
people has not been known in politics.
The great discomfort that is said to exist
in the Democratic party on account OF
methods OF the Administration have gen.
orally been reported through Republican
papers. When the party gives its final
decision on the Administration, that de.
cision will be for it and not against it.

THE COMMISSIONS REPORT.

The Utah Commission have made their
report to the Secretary of the Interior.
The telegraph does not say much about
it, but it says one very important thing.
1t says it is now only matter OF time
when polygamy will become extinct, and
this must be patent to every observer.
We are especially pleased to see that the
Commission have recommended a con-
tinuation OF the policy now being
pursued, and not the introduction
of any radical policy. The policy
now being pursued is 10 abol-
ish system OF marriage which
is inconsistent with modern civilization
by an enforcement OF the ordinary
laws made for the protection of society.
That there are needed some additional
laws is true, but those laws if they shall
be passed should be administered as or
dinary laws are, and not by the institu-
ton of an extraordinary method. The
use OF extraordinary methods destroys to
very great extent the moral force OF
upon which society must rely for its pro-
lection. Ii an active and armed oppo-
sition to the law is made, then, of course,
it becomes necessary that society shall
repel such opposition by force. That
opposition does not exist in Utah,
although there is very widespread vio-
lation OF a particular law, but the opposi-
ton to it is evasive rather than active.
These violations must be punished, but
they should be punished in the ordinary
way, as all crimes are punished. This is
what the Utah. Commission recommend
if we interpret their recommendation
Alright. The employment OF an unusual
method for the suppression OF crime,
will usually create sympathy for those
who commit the crime sought to be sup.
pressed which they would not otherwise
receive. The dislike of the method
gives an indulgence to the crime.
Government itself is but method
of controlling and regulating the
common affairs OF men, and the
more constant the method adopted the
more permanent is the government. 1t
is this constancy and adherence to its
method that has made the English Gov
ernment what it is, and has made it the
model OF all representative governments.
The American Government has all the
principles and methods OF Il free govern
ment, and to a much greater extent than
any other government ever had, but the
danger to these principles lies in radical
ism rather than in conservatism. The
Utah Commissioners have declared in
favor of conservatism and against radi-
calism, and for this we are glad.

A Bad Practice.

We notice that some Republican
papers, friendly either to Beatty or
Foraker for Governor, are busying
themselves with saying unwise things
against the candidate they are not
favoring That is all wrong. It is
almost certain that either Beatty or
Foraker will be the man, and those
papers which are speaking disparag-
ing or one or the other, will find
themselves in an unenviable position
should they fail to secure the nomina-
tion they want. Be just, gentleman,
to both men, and you will be right,
and in good trim for the campaign
when it shall be inaugurated. For
aker is very good man. Beatty is a
very good man. If either Of them
has made mistakes, it is somewhat Of
a relief to know that he will, if NOM
mated, be supported and elected by
men, every one Of whom we suppose
has made some mistake at some time
in his life.-Marysville Tribune.
