HOG CHOLERA.

The disease that has attacked the
hogs in Iowa is peculiar and almost
Immediately fatal. 1t is said to be
cholera in most malignant form.
1t does its work rapidly and 50 efec-
tually that in twenty-four hours after
the attack the hogs are dead. As
yet, no remedy has been found that
will, in the least, stay its violence or
hinder its rapid spread. The State
veterinarian says: ''There are thirty
counties in this great State infected
by hog cholera this year. The dis
ease Is more prevalent that any time
within the history of the State and
the losses will undoubtedly reach
100000 or more.

POLITICS In ENGLAND.
A Coming Revolution which May
Change the Order of II Thousand
Years.

In British politics profound revolu-
ton is going on which will work a COM
plete change. Beyond the possibility Of
a doubt, Great Britain is gradually tend
ing toward Democracy. There has lately
been added to the list OF Britains voters
two million men from the most ignorant
classes OF society, in fact suffrage has be-
come almost as universal in Engla..d rs
in the United States. The Liberals are
seeking to gain not only for Ireland but
England, Scotland and Wales, u large in
crease of local power. This means the
appointment of local officers, many of
whom now receive their commission from
the queen; and the establishment in
different districts Of local legislatures cor
responding in a measure with our own
state legislatures. They are further ask
ing free education for all classes and are
making quite an agitation in favor of the
registration of titles. There is no such
registration at the present time, and Mr.
Chamberlain, the leader of the radical
wing of the Liberal party, claims that the
secretion of titles have given landed
aristocracy opportunity to seize property
not rightfully theirs. In connection with
the registration of titles it is intended
that the transfer OF property shall be
simplified and cheapened. At the present
time it is tedious and expensive process
to transfer the title of land in Great Bri-
tain. For instance, if man has farm
worth $500 it will cost him e100 to make
transfer, instead of the merely nominal
sum for which it can be done in this
country. Furthermore, u large percent
age of the people is discussing and con-
sidering the proprety OF disestablishing
the Church of England as state institu-
ton and taking away its right of taxation
and state aid. The Liberals, as party,
do not avow this doctrine, but out OF five
hundred and fifty-seven Liberals four
hundred say they want no church as Il
part of English government. In Scot
land this feeling is rife, in Wales less so
and in Ireland it is most intense.
This is not the. .avowed opinion of
the Liberals as party, but the feeling
OF four hundred and twelve members who
had been communicated with personally
by letter or interviewed by newspaper
men is discovered to be in favor OF dis,
establishment. The land question is the
great issue agitating English politics. The
Liberals are for settling it in what seems
from an American point OF view, a reason
able manner, while the Conservatives
backed by large percentage of the House
of Lords and the clergy, stand in the way
OF any attempt to change the present
state OF things in Great Britain That
the popular wish will some day be graft
fed is inevitable, for the House OF Com,
mons rules the Lords and the people rule
the Commons.

IA RADICAL CURE FOR POLYG
AMY"

Under the above head the Phoebe
Record OF the Sd inst. makes the follow
ing barbarous suggestions for the cure OF
polygamy:
The method which the Government is now
pursuing in its efforts to break up the prac-
tice of polygamy by the Mormons is n slow
process, and in the end, we fear, there will
be little or no good result from it. The
practice of polygamy can easily and
thoroughly be eradicuted from the ranks of
the religious fanatics of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, provided
II is only gone about in the right way. There
should be law passed making pOlygamy
and bigamy come within the pale Of crimes
That are punishable by capital punishment
Then let the letter of the law be carried out.
The criminals arrested, and those convicted,
quickly made to expiate the penalty Of their
crimes on the gallOws. If this was done, il
would not be long until the members of the
Mormon faith would brush away the cob
webs that have accumulated over their eyes
for the past forty years, look at polygamy
and its vices as they really exist, then there
would be another revelation from the Lord,
and the church would send forth orders to
IT'S Hooks that polygamy il thing of the
past and that the members must cease in
dulging in such vices. AS the matter now
stands, those of the Mormon church who
are convicted of living III and practicing po-
lygaIny are, upon conviction, simply sent to
prison for Il brief period and nominal fine
imposed upon them, After serving short
term of Imprisonment these men emerge
from the pen, are feasted by their brothers
IN vice, and looked upon as heroes, and, to
| snow their contempt for the law, we do not
doubt but what a certain party, upon hi.
release from imprisonment, took to himself
another concubine, or polygamous wife
Religious fanatics know no laws and do a.
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1885-10-08

the authorities of the church dictate. Let
the practice of polygamy be made punish
able by death, the law rigidly enforced, ana
after the execution of couple of the leaders
of the Mormon church the members will
come to their senses, deeming 1t benehcial
to their health, and like all good citizens
will obey the laws of the land. Such law
would prove an effectual and sure cure for
polygamy.
Capital punishment for any offense is
barbarous, and to apply it as remedy
for polygamy and unlawful cohabitation
would be to make it doubly barbarous.
1t is the enactment OF exceptionally harsh
and severe measures against any crime
that creates sympathy for those who
suffer such punishment. Whenever a
sympathy is created for any class OF
criminals through the enactment OF unduly
severe measures against them, a reac-
ton in their favor is liable to ensue,
and that which all would desire
to see suppressed remains where
it was. 1t is far more difficult in times
OF political excitement when human pas
sions are warning for one to be moderate
and conservative than to be radical and
revolutionary. Radical and extreme
measures are not necessarily wise and
effectual measures, nor do they always
compass the end sought or establish the
condition desired The United States
have no need to resort to the barbarous
cure suggested by the Record to suppress
polygamy, nor will they.

telescope view of victory. And right here it
wants to go on record in favor of the establish
ment of manhood suffrage and free and honest
elections in every part of the land 1t
wants to be understood as saying that it be-
lieves that the defense of the characters of
honest men and women in office and in private
life is of infinitely more Importance than
whether the duty on borax is ten cents or
ten dollars a pound. Civil-service re-
form, as practiced by this administration, is a
license to cut-throats, letter of marque and
reprisal to moral pirates, an indulgence to
assassins of character. The Republican party
purposes fighting it out on this line, and will
use its mightiest endeavors to make life and
character safe everywhere.

ahead, and commit itself to the doctrine of
prohibition. The principal "lesson" of that
defeat is to keep cool and hold on to common

A WASHINGTON correspondent Of the Phil
adelphia Times, in trying to bolster up Pen
sion Commissioner Black, states that that
functionary recognized the boards of exam
ming surgeons throughout the country by
putting in Democratic members for the pur-
pose of breaking down the assumption that
Northern soldiers could only hope to get their
pensions through a continuance of Repub-
lican power. The correspondent further
AYERS that since the removal of some 1000 of
the 900 Republican examiners the work of
examination has been greatly expedited. To
all of which it is sufficient to say, bosh!
General Black knows that the government
pensioners did not fear another civil war or
revolution on the assumption Of power by
Democrats, and the stoppage of their pensions
by the party would imply nothing short of
this. He reorganized the boards simply for
the purpose Of putting Democrats in and Re-
publicans out, and of thereby gaining such
party prestige as might accrue. General
Black knows, also, that the examination of
pensioners proceeds no more rapidly under
the present than the old boards Again, bosh!

SOMEBODY has started story to the effect
that Hon. Levi p. Morton, late minister to
France, and now talked Of as candidate for
Governor Of New York, is making frantic
efforts to obtain possession Of the tailor's sign
which bore his name in earlier days, and
which is now held by designing person at an
exorbitant ransom. The idea conveyed by
the ingenious builder of the tale is, that Mr.
Morton fears the effect disclosure of his low
origin would have on his prospects during the
canvass, in case he is nominated. If the orig
inator of the story is not himself snob, who
has no comprehension of the true sentiments
held by man of sense who has risen in the
world by his own exertions, he is animated by
the hope of injuring Mr.. Morton by ascribing
to him the possession of false pride and feel
ing of shame over his humble beginning. 1t
is very transparent scheme, and will deceive
no one Other things being equal, the "self-
made" man stands better chance of securing
the votes Of Americans than one who boasts

Our local columns give fair idea of the
influences which are behind the Democratic
party in this city, and which are likely to be
powerful enough to control the party's action.
If the Republican convention of Saturday and
the ward conventions to name councilmen
and aldermen are wise, being controlled by a
spirit of regard for the public interests, the
nominees they make will be elected by very
decisive majorities The great bulk of our
people are not DESTROYS of surrendering the
