Riel, the Canadian revolutionist, is still making it warm for the Ca nucks, and whipping everything he meets. He has issued a manifesto setting forth the wrongs for which they are fighting, which are mostly land troubles; and in this connection they have been badly treated, and their wrongs should be righted. Yet there was a better course to pursue than war, this Riel is aware of, but his rebel ious and warlike nature is not in accord with a peacable adjustment of the matter.

Chas. Searls, a resident of Uin- tah county, Utah, married his bro- ther's daughter recently, at Payson. This may sound strange to the out side world, but it is not uncommon in Utah. If a man should marry his own mother out in the Land of Zion, it would not be looked upon as anything out of the way by the holy people of Utah. Incest is con stantly being committed by these brutes in form of man, in fact they know not their own children.

The Philadelphia Press referring to the erroneous idea prevailing a. mong the Mormon people, that they can with a million dollars buy state hood for Utah, makes the following remarks: "The enterprising polyg- amist bishop who suggests that the Mormons settle their difficulties by buying the Territory of Utah from the United States, is laboring un- der a grave misapprehension. This Government is not selling sites for moral pesthouses."

Emigration Scheme.

A bill Is now before the Massa- chusetts legislature, which has foI its object the solution of the Nor mon problem. It contemplates the creation of corporation to be known as the Utah emigrant aid and improvement company, with a capital stock of $1,000,O00. This corporation, when chartered by the laws of Massachusetts, intends to enter upon government lands in Utah and assist emigrants, who are known to be opposed to Mormon ism, in retaining and cultivating them, and in this way extirpate po- lJgamy. Some ofthe incorporators are the men who organized the en- igrant aid society in 1856, for the purpose of colonizing Kansas with anti-slavery settlers, and they hope to be as successful in extirpating polygamy in Utah as they were in making Kansas a free state. The colonies will be thoroughly armed and ready to use the same means to protect themselves and families as the anti-slavery colonists did in bleeding Kansas.

As soon as the administration can get around to it, we hope it will make a clean sweep of the mo- torious Santa Fe Ring" which has plundered New Mexico for so many years, under the auspices of repub- lican rule.

While the Mormon nolvoam;sts

While the Mormon polygamists of Utah and Arizona are skipping out to escape arrest, the work of proselyting still goes on in Europe. These poor foreigners haven't the slightest idea of the lecherous den ofiniquity, to which they are being led by these damnable, smooth tongued and foul-hearted emissaries of the Mormon church. They are promised free farms and homes and in fact everything that would tend to make life enjoyable, but, alas, when it is too late, they find they
 have been deceived and are home less and penniless in a strange
 country ruled by a fanatical priest hood, and they must succumb to the inevitable. The sooner this immigration of Mormon dupes is stopped, the sooner will our coun- try break up this nest of licentious-
 ness. The most effectual way is to
 treat them the same as we do Eu- ropean paupers-refuse them per mission to land on our shores.

It is reported from Washington that in regard to the appointment of territorial officers the new rule of choosing governors from actual citizens will be adhered to in every case, but in the selection ofjudicia- ", customs and revenue and land office appointments the field will not be restricted for such positions.

The United States troops at the Isthmus have taken charge of Pan anna, and hold the control of gov ernment. Our government is bound to protect American interests and property on the Isthmus and the ac- ton taken is commendable. It is about time the United States as- serts that she has rights and that they must be respected, notwith- standing they may conflict with all the nations of the world.

A Philadelphia paper has the news that Mormon emissaries are at work in Montana, endeavoring to excite the Indians to revolt, pre- sumably with the two-fold object of revenge and of di:erting public at tention from themselves. This is astrong illustration ofthe desperate condition to which the enforcement of a good law has brought the po- lygamists and shows what they would do in Arizona, particularly in Apache county, were it not for the fact that they are too closely watched.

In considering the possible fU- ture of Utah, the earnest gentiles here should never lose sight of one fact The hoarded wealth 5f the mormon church is very great; the yearly assessments upon the peo- pie must amount to something tre- mendous. It would be cheap ir- vestment for them to expend a mil lion dollars for Statehood. Let any one think what $1,000,00O would accomplish in shrewd hands. We are astonished that the whispered word was not sent out to the peo- pie at the late conference that po- lpgamy must, be for the time being surrendered until statehood could be purchased. We must not for get that the gentilcs have no repre- sentatives in Washington, while the mormons always have a full force there. For three weeks after the 4th of March, Messrs. Cain and Cannon were there constantly, and they had interview after interview with the Secretary of the Intcrio'. {. There is a great deal for the gentiles to guard against in the next few months, for the bold declarations in the chiefs address were inspired by some new born hope that means mischief Salt Lake Tribune.

Territorial Meeting of Stoekmen.

The Arizona Live Stock Associa- ton met in Tucson, Thursday the 16th of April, there being represent ed at the meeting the following To- cal associations The South-eastern Stock Growers Association, Stock Growers Association of Tombstone, and Stock Growers Association ot Gila County. They adopted reso- lutions in regard to the appoint ment of inspectors to prevent the introduction of diseased cattle in to the territory. The resolutions are nearly identical with the quar- antine law of Kansas except that part permitting the importation of cattle from suspected districts dur ing frost months. MT. Theodore F. White was unanimously chosen general inspector for the territory of Arizona, and the local associa- tions were advised to appoint in spectors to have jurisdiction over their respective districts which were divided as follows
 Southeastern Association, along the New Mexico line, from the mountains north of the San Fran cisco river to the Mexican frontier.
 The Tombstone Association from the southeast corner of the territo- ry on the Mexican line, to the sum- nit of the Huachuca mountains, west to the crossing of the San Pe- dro.
 The Pima County Association, from the Huachuca mountains, west, along the international line to the Colorado river and north to Castle Dome.
 The convention then correspond ed with the Globe and Apache county associations, to find out where they wished their lines drawn. Gov. Tritle was telegraphed in re- gard to the immediate appointment of Mr. White as inspector.
 It is to be hoped that the Apache County Stock Growers Association will unite with the associations of the central and southern part of the territory, and at once place an in- spector on the line of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad and other points where herds are liable to be driven into the territory. We see by the Texas papers that arrange ments have already been made to ship 1S,O00 head of cattle from Panhandle, Texas, to Holbrook, in this county, to be placed on ranges in that vicinity, also about the same from Pecos county, Texas, to points in this territory

CATTLE SHIPMENTS.

The outlook for large shipmer, OF cat

The experiment Of shipping By rail from
Southern Montana was made las. season,
and it will doubtless be followed b. larger
shipments this year. In speaking Of the
increase Of cattle shipments from Mon.
tana the agen: OF the Northern Pacific has
this to say: Three years ago shipments
amounted to only 3o.ooO head. In 1859
there vas gain OF 10000, and IN 1854
shipments reached 10000. al! Of which
wen, over the Northern Pacific road The
bes. authority in the trade place the ship.
ments for the present year 4. 10000 at
least. You can see from this with wha. =
ratio the trade is increasing in this Terrific
~ alone. Large numbers OF young cattle
are brought, BY rail and other. are driven
in from Texas. Cattle are coming in also
from Oregon. and not long ago one hun.
dred car loads Of stockers came in from
Washington Territory. Then the natural
Increase is very large and rapid. It is
snus easily understood how Montana gets
its cattle for the ranges and for shipment.
