Law in Utah.

They seem to find it necessary out in |
Utah to change the ancient rules of evil |
dence that prevail everywhere else in the
civilized world, in order to convict the |
p0lygamous husbands of that bedeviled
territory. One of the wives of man
charged with ''unlawful cohabitation, was
fined fifty dollars and imprisoned from Sat
urday until Monday, for declining to an
swer questions put to her on his trial as to
her relations with him. On Monday the
man was arraigned on a further charge
Of "polygamy," and the same woman,
again refusing to testify, was fined 300
for contempt, and ordered to be impris-
oned until the fine was paid. She says she
will not answer if shei imprisoned forever;
and we think she is commendable. A
law which requires her to answer such
questions against her will is not commenda-
ble.. A wife nowhere is required to testify
against her husband; and even upon the
theory that this woman was not a wife,
she would not be required to testify, out
side of Utah, when her testimony would
tend to incriminate her. And if perchance
the laws Of Utah have been so amended as
to make fornication no crime in female,
still the woman who refuses to testify in
court concerning her relations as wife or
mistress with man will be justified and
applauded by universal sentiment.
Who is it that is melting the United
States officials in Utah to make themselves
ridiculo lous The law says polygamy is q
Icrihfe and Nhe lawSsays fornication is 9
crime. But who ever heard of a complaint
made for the latter offense in any part o.
the United States, except when it is made
by the woman who suffers from it If th'
Utah women complain against the Ctal
men, the law furnishing polygamy is ol
the statute book for their relief
And IL anyone else is offended b.
pOlygamy, the law is there to be invoked
But we submit that it is going too far 70
those who are offended at polygamy to cal
upon polygamous wives, who are no
offended by it, to testify against thos
whom they claim as their husbands an
who acknowledge the claim. And whe
these women are sent to Jail for refusing t
testify as to their relations with men whor

THE quiet scholarly man who, as Cardinal
Pecchi was known in the European religious
world as one of its most jealous and learned
divines and who, as Leo XIII, has won the
respect even of the enemies of his faith, must
find his pontificate much saddened by some
recent eyents in Rome. Uneasy lies the
head that wears the CROWN" is an old
Shakespearean aphorism, but it usually re-
fers to the annoyances of statecraft and sell
dom sinks to the level of personal indigni-
ties During the incumbency of the present
pope, he has seen the remains OF his prede-
cessor, Plus TX, brutally treated by mob,
and only few days ago the tomb of Pope
Clement ~, at Viterbo, was violated The
account states that the outrage was per-
formed by the city officials. "The tomb was
opened without any formality, the pontical
yestments were taken, and the bones were
put into a tin can formerly used for petro-
leum, and brought to the city hall. Strong
fears are entertained that the officials Of the
city may have appropriated some precious
coins and parchment that should have been
in the grave" Fortunately for the credit Of
the human race, such exhibitions Of wanton
brutality are rare even in Italy, but the latter
power owes 1t to itself as well as to the mil
lions of Romes children scattered through
tho world to see to it that similar outrages are
made impossible for the future.

Amending the Suffrage Laws.

There seems to be a rather violent as
sumption on the part of some of our es-
teemed contemporaries, that the resolution
proposing an abolition of the poll tax quail
fication for suffrage was actually adopted
by the last legislature. We have very
decided impression to the contrary, that it
failed even to pass the Senate wherein it
was proposed by Senator Kennedy, on the
same day that it was recommended by Gov
ernor Pattison in his message to the legis-
lature. Our recollection is that the meas
ure was opposed and obstructed by Senator
Cooper and other Republicans, and to them
its defeat is due.
Even had itpassed there would be long
way yet to its engraftment upon the con-
stitution, as two succeeding legislatures
must assent to an amendment before even
it comes to the voters for popular rati-
fcation.
Whether this amendment shall be
adopted soon or late, or never, it is Ger
tain that popular discussion of our suffrage
laws is wholesome. The suffrage tax, as
manipulated by the politicians, with popu-
lar acquiescence, has not vindicated the
wisdom of its establishment. The revenue
derived from it is comparatively inconsid-
erable, and it has not operated to dignity
the franchise on the part of those who
possess and exercise it. The fact
is that very large class of voters, espe-
cially In the cities and in many rural re-
gions, debase the privilege of suffrage and
surrender their individuality by depending
upon the party organization to pay their
taxes. In Philadelphia, at single election
as many as $4,000 voters have made the
parties pay their taxes, and in Lancaster it
has happened that as many as $500, nearly
half the total number of voters, did the
same thing. Such results or possibilities
make the tax qualification for suffrage a
farce and a hindrance rather than an aid to
free and independent elections.
While the suffrage laws are under discus
sion, however, or when they are to be
tinkered, there are other features of them
which willadmit of radical salutary amend
ment. Since it is now fixed that every
voters rights are determined thirty days
before the election--which is only Iea-
sonable precauton against fraud-there is
no reason why any dispute over a vote
should occur at the polls. 1t is entirely
practicable to do in Pennsylvania what is
done in some of the Eastern states, to
print and publish list of
the voters in every district twenty

well determine them I'm advance.
Besides the consideration of convenience,
there are two weighty reasons why the
rights of voters should be ascertained and
legally determined in advance of elections.
One of these is that by long train
of decisions, it has been established as the
law that If lawful voters vote is rejected
it can by no process, upon disputed elec-
ton case, ever be counted in favor of the
candidate for whom it would have been cast
had it been admitted into the box. BY this
principle candidate for election might be
defeated by the exclusion of votes to which
he was entitled, just as surely as by the ad-
mission of fraudulent votes for his oppo-
nent in the one case the law furnishes a
remedy; in the other it does not.
Again, contested elections now drag
along so wearily and at such length, in the
ascertainment of the validity of the votes
and the qualifications of voters, that con
testant who is counted out can scarcely
establish his claim until the term fol
which he was fairly chosen is ended ant
his opponent has enjoyed the office. 1
every voters right was determined befor
election day, contested elections could b.
settled within thirty days.
If the suffrage laws are to be refined lie
there be a complete job of it.

THE passiyeness with which the English
pulpit regarded the Russo-Afghan question
at the time when war with all its attendant
horrors was believed to be inevitable be-
tween these powers attracted general atten-
ton to the inquiry whether nineteenth cen
tury civilization was any advance from the
state of original barbarism in which might
made right 1t is this thought that gives in
creased interest to a work on "Military
Manners and Customs" by James Anson
Ferrer. He lets in some strange light on
historical characters on whom the noderns
have long blown the incense of hero wor-
ship. With merciless iconociasm Mr. Ferrer
declares that Chevalier Bayard, sans peur,
sans reproche, was wont to massacre surren-
dered garrisons and order the wholesale
slaughter of innocent children. Edward,
the Black Prince, was as thirsty and cruel
| in revenge as an Apache warrior. Nor
| does he draw only from the centuries
| that are past tor his proofs that war is
| to-day as ruthless as it ever was, while at
the same time far more destructive. The
| Franco-German war, according to Mr..
| Ferrer, furnished proofs of savagery of the
| most cold-blooded description, and had Eng.
| land and Russia engaged in hostiities, the
| most dreadful carnage in the worlds history,
marked by an infinite amount Of barbarity
| would have resulted. Many have been wonI
to console themselves with the thought tina,
improved weapons of wholesale destruction
to lite shorten wars horrors, but the NOR
tality of recent strifes will not bear out the
supposition. War is essentially cruel work
and may only be adopted as choice be
tween evils. Mr.. Ferrer, perhaps goes tor
| far in saying that modern war has all of the
old-time barbarity, for with tho mingling o
