The MOrmOns and Mexico.

A few weeks ago the WATCHMAN re-
ferred to plan evolved by the Nor.
mon leaders which might, be the
means of settling the Mormon problem
so far as the United States is con.
cerned. Brigham Young, Jr., has
made arrangements with the Mexican
government by which a large number
Of Mormons will be allowed to settle in
chihuahua, on condition that they
obey the laws OF the country. But il
appears that the laws Of Mexico are
even more rigid than our own against
polygamy, and it is probable that nm
less the Mormons can obtain special
concessions from the government, they
cannot, by thus isolating themselves
from law and civilization, practice their
immoral code with greater impunity in
Mexico than they have been permitted
to do in the United States. 1t is stated
that this new movement does not con-
template the abandonment of Utah by
the polygamists, but Brigham Young,
Jr., has explained that the Mormons
were much cramped and must have
more room. During few years past
they have overlooked to some extent
into Idaho, Arizona and Nevada, but
they have not received a cordial well
come. The anti-Mormon sentiment is
so strong in these territories that the
Mormon leaders have felt compelled to
discourage further emigration of the
polygamists into their borders. The
new project is regarded as evidence of

of the republican officials who have pre-
coded them; but where it is shown that
republicans have been removed to the
damage of the public service, and upon
false charges which have injured their
good names, | shall do my part to Sc
cure for them the fullest opportunity
for vindication.-Sendtor Sabin Of MIN

LESS than month ago an intelligent
democrat from South Carolina, while
making a call at the editorial rooms of
the Troy Times, INDUCED in some very
frank language on the subject of sup
pressing the negro vote in his state.
1t was no longer necessary, he said, to
pursue the old system of night-riding
and violence, by which colored men
were kept away from the polls on cleo
ton days. New plans have been de-
vised and are in operation by means of
which the negroes are prevented from
voting, or their ballots miscounted and
made to tell against their intent. All
the election machinery of the state is
in the hands of the democrats. No
black man can vote without presenting
certificate issued by the democratic
authorities proving his right to do so.
A certificate, once lost, is never dupli-
Gated or renewed, and very ingenious
| schemes are resorted to for the purpose
of getting such papers away from the
holders.-1roy Times.
A QUACK-DOCTOR was once asked how
he succeeded in getting so large prac-
tice, in spite of his ignorance of medi-
cal science. "Oh, ;" he replied, " about
nine out of ten of the people are fools,
and ] get the nine" He may have
placed the proportion entirely too high,
but the class that he looked to for
patronage is alarmingly large. For in
stance, there now lies in the st. Louis
jail a confessed scoundrel, accused of
treacherously chloroforming his friend
and dumping his insensible body into a
trunk to smother. The proof is almost
positive that the man is a murderer; ii
is absolutely certain that he is villain
and shameless rake. Yet there are
multitudes of people who are seeking
to make him hero-women who are
sending him flowers, delicacies and
wine, and hundreds who 90 to the jail
to get sight of the man. All sympathy
spent on such worthless object is a
discredit to the parties, and is proof OF
soft heads rather than soft hearts,

Mr.. GLADsTONE's address to his
constituents, which has been awaited
with much interest, was issued on Fri
day. 1t shows distinct recognition of
the radical programme. He claims
the credit of the Afghan settlement,
and traces all the trouble in Egypt to
the policy of foreign Intervention which
he had combatted. But he admits that
he committed errors of judgment in
the Soudan affair, but for none of these
were the ministry rebuked by the OPP
position. In regard to land reform, he
merely recommends an improvement of
existing facilities for the transfer of
ownership and an increase of the taxes
on landowners. He questions the me-
cessity of making at this time primary
education gratuitous, and evades any
definite expression upon the questions
of church disestablishment and the alb
clifton of the house of lords. As to
the Irish question, he believes the
genius of the nation is adequate to the
solution of the problem, and says moth
ing inconsistent with his previous dec
larations that he would entertain the
proposition of home rule. Mr.. Glad.
stones manifesto is regarded as an as.
tute, though not a perfectly frank APP
peal, designed to hold the wings and
radicals together for one more desper-
ate encounter with the conservatives
AS was to be expected, the tory jour
nails pronounce Mr.. Gladstone's adj
dress weak and disappointing.

Reviving an Old Issue.

The democratic and mugwump jour,
nails have good deal to say about the
I" dead issues of the war and reconstruc-
ton periods" but some of these are not
so dead as they might be. The Louis
vile Commercial, which is not repub-
lican paper, makes this candid comment
on Senator Sherman's speech
Senator Sherman may not have been
polite enough for the present time when he
said, in his Mt. Gilead speech, that he had
noticed many signs Of disposition to
waive all the glorious results of the war
but in his protest against the tendency to
opliterate all distinction of war records he
merely echoed sentiment that is bound,
sooner or later, to prevail again with great
strength. The temper of the country has
been against the nursing of old issues and
Old feelings, but the present tendency is to
revive in some manner the old discussi on of
states rights, and that is sure to revive the
war feeling. Senator Sherman is not good
party trimmer, but he is an eminently SEN
sible and far-sighted man."
The Boston Traveller thinks that if
the speeches of General Fitz-Hugh
Lee, the democratic candidate for GOV
ernor in Virginia, are to be taken as a
guide, the chief political issue in that
state is a notification of the Constitu-
ton and the laws as expounded by the
supreme court of the United States.
Other journals take a similar view of
the situation, based upon the following
facts: The court, in its decisions on
what were known as the coupon cases,
very properly held that the clause of
the Constitution excluding from the ju-

Latest Crop Reports.

The time has come when reason
ably close estimate of our wheat sup
ply can be made, and the New York
Produce Exchange Weekly, from a
careful review of supply and demand,
arrives at the following results: Re-
mainder of previous crops carried over
to 1856, 90,000,000 bushels; crop of
1885, estimated at 357 100000 bushels
total supply, AL ,000, 900 bushels. Con-
sumption for bread, on the basis of
four and one-half bushels per head of
population, 263 100000 bushels; seed
requirements, SO. 900, 900 bushels; man
ufactures, Ii, 1000, 900 bushels-total con-
sumption. 3Sl 900, 900 bushels. This
leaves an available surplus for export of
115, 900 900 bushels. The September
report of the department of agriculture
estimates the entire crop at 35l 100000
bushels, of which 2l7 100000 is of
winter wheat. The condition of the
corn crop continues high in most sec
tons, and the prospect is still favor
able for a yield above the average.
The condition of oats is two points
lower than in September of last year, but
as there was large increase of area, it
is thought that the total yield will not
fall below that of 1884 The potato
crop will be large, but there is consid-
cradle complaint of rot and bugs. In
Canada the harvest is generally re-
ported as satisfactory. In Great Brit
ain the cereal harvest is above the
average of few years past; and in
other European countries, except in
Russia and Spain, where the harvests
are deficient, the results have been ia
vorable.
The Boston Journal has crop reports
from all the New England states. The
returns from every county in Vermont
show that the yield of farm productions
is abundant, and fully an average one
compared with previous years. About
forty per cent of the farmers report an
average hay crop, and sixty per cent
report the crop below the average of
former years. The yield of oats, wheat
and barley is especially good. Corn is
late in maturing, and in some sections
has been injured by frosts, but nearly
an average crop will be secured. The
growth of fodder-corn is heavy. Beans
are rusting badly and the crop will be
less than the average one. The potato
crop, owing to rust or rot, will be about
ninety per cent of a full crop. The
yield of orchard products is larger in
some sections and smaller in Others
than last year.

The Wyoming Affair.

The government has acted wisely in
ordering the apprehension of the in
stigators of the riot by which unarmed
and unoffending Cinnamon were massa-
cred in Wyoming, though it could hardly
have done less than this. The later re-
ports of the affair leave not a shadow
of justification for the infamous con-
duct of the perpetrators. The China
men were in the employ of the Union
Pacific Railroad Company as miners,
and were given employment not be-
cause their labor was cheaper, but on
account of the difficulty which had been
experienced in obtaining reliable Amer
lean miners. 1t does not appear that
any controversy had arisen concerning
wages or hours of labor, the only COM
plant being that when the white
miners, for some real or fancied griev-
ance, had seen fit to 90 out on strike
Though many of them had been earn
ing 500 a month) the Cinnamon would
not join them. Our treaty with China
provides for the full protection of the
Chinese in this country; but it is prob
ably true that the laws discriminating
against these people have given much
encouragement to the commission of
outrages upon them by class of per-
sons who imagine that the Chinese have
no rights that should be respected
In the Pacific states and territories
the principal grievance against the Chi
nese is that they work too cheaply, and
thus neutralize the efforts of white
workmen to secure an increase of
wages. But the same complaint is
made by strikers and trades unionists
in other parts of the country when
they demand higher wages and others
are found willing to work more cheaply.
Referring to the numerous instances
where men are insulted, beaten, shot
or stabbed, because they have dared tn
accept low rate of wages in defiance
of the dictum of some organization
which seeks to control the labor market
contemporary satirically remarks
90 If the ideas of a certain class of men
in this country ever come into gen.
eral acceptance, a new species of crime
will have to be recognized in our legis.
latures and law cOurts-namely, the
crime of working on small wages and
living cheaply. The number of per.
sons in this country who have suffered
the extreme penalty for this offence in
the past few years may be counted by
hundreds. Those who accept labor al
low rates, or countenance the practice
of living cheaply, are likewise sub
iected to assaults, and often to the loss
of property and even of life. If the
offence charged in such cases is really
worthy of such cruel punishment, then
for the sake of simple justice, the crime
ought to be defined in technical term,
and recognized in the statute-books, Sc
that the maxim would apply that ig
norance of the law excuses no one"

SEVERAL journals have called atten-
ton to the fact that the United States
have larger interests in the Caroline
Islands than other nations. There are
at the present time twelve American
missionaries there engaged in educa-
tional and outstanding work who are
supported by funds from this country.
The only steamboat at the islands is
owned by Americans. There are five
hundred of these islands, with popua-
ton of one hundred thousand, half of
whom have been induced to give up
paganism by American missionaries.
If the islands are to have a protectorate
at all, nothing would seem so appropri-
ate as to make it an American one.
But the United States is not likely to &c
into the protectorate business in the
Eastern Hemisphere.

THE Burlington Free Press charges
that the letter III last weeks ArguS
upon the matter of Mr.. Roberts re-
moval from the receivership of the
First National Bank of st. Adams is
"a compilation of misrepresentation, "
and ga mere echo of the wall of the
indicted" These are grave charges,
but it is in the power of Controller
Cannon to furnish a plain statement of
the motives and causes which induced
the change of receivers. Then we can
see just how much of genuine reform
there is in it..

United States if they continue to prac-
tice polygamy; and they are hoping that
when the worst happens to them their
proposed settlement in Mexico may
prove a harbor Of refuge. But it is not
certain that their Mexican scheme will
be of any advantage to them, for the
law against plurality of wives in that
country is based not only upon political
but also upon religious, principles.
