ITS DEATH KNELL.

The decision Of the Supreme Court of the
United States, in the Clawson polygamy
case, is Of far greater Importance than the
general reader of news dispatches may re-
allie at first 1t strikes 50 directly at the
root Of the Mormon evil, as we view it,
that it viii repay to briefly restate the
case Clawson, being convicted Of polyga-
my, went up TO the supreme Court of the
United States, on q writ of error. The
ground upon which he relied was the
exclusion from the grand and petit jury
panels, Of polygamists. This was. there
fore, making direct issue as to whether
one who holds polygamy to bc . diyinely
ordained institute OF certain religion has
the right to enjoy freely the exercise Of
that religion, and without disbarmcnt from
the usual privileges Of citizenship, because
of such religious belief That is TO say, it
is the privilege of = citizen, under the Con-
stitution. to Worship God according to the
dictates of his own conscience, and with
perfect freedom from interruption It is
the like privilege Of the citizen to serve on
juries, and not to he excluded because Of
his religious belief SO, too, it is the right
Of prisoner 70 be tried by jury, and that
no one shall be barred from entry upon
the panel because Of religious belief Such
was the doctrine Of the exceptions taken
hy Rodger Clawson.
The Edmunds Act provides that III any
prosecution for bigamy, poIygamy or I'M
lawful cohabitation Under the statutes of
the United States it shall be sufficient
cause Of challenge to any person drawn as
juryman or talesman that he believes it
is right for man 70 have more than one
living and undiyorced wife at the same
time Clawson's exceptions, therefore,
went directly to the heart of the Edmunds
Act. For if polygamists could be priyi-
legged to be tried 10y those who believed
with them concerning the plural wife
dogma there could be no convictions. In
sustaining the law and oyerruling The
Clawson exceptions, the Supreme Court
in fact passes upon the constitutional re-
ligious guarantee upon which the Nor
mons have so long relied. While the dis
patches noticing the decision refer only to
the technical point that the rejection of
persons from the regular panel, and the
supplying of their places with Others
drawn by special yenire, does not invali-
dale the proceedings in prosecution, yet
ii is clear that the Court must have passed
upon the legality of the rejection Of part
of the regular panel, and therefore have
ruled directly upon the constitutional
question of the extent of the guaran-
tee for the free exercise of religious

beliefs, and which has been the last hope
and resort Of the polygamous Mormons.
The Court, in short, decides that no reli-
gious creed under constitutional guar
antee shall cloak immortality. Thus the
highest tribunal in the land strikes the
death knell of polygamy in this country.

\ VERY interesting report WAS recently
made to the st. Louis Academy of Science
by Professor Potter, of Washington Uni
versity, upon the extent to which sewage
affects flowing streams The Professor re-
ferred to the doctrine that the obnoxious
elements introduced by sewage are oxi-
died and gotten rid of by oxidation. He
said opinions Of scientists As expressed on
this subject did not agree, and quoted
some differences. His view was that sew
age was oxidized, and to gain evidence on
the point he collected specimens Of the
water to be found in the Mississippi at
Bissel's Point, foot Of Lesperance street,
of the docks at Carondelet, at the Quar-
autine station, and AT Crystal City. The
analysis showed that the purest water was
found at Quarantine, which is two miles
below the foot Of Lcsperance street, where
the worst water was obtained, and where
the main sewers empty their contents into
the stream. The water at CRYSTAL CITY
was next to the Quarantine in purity,
while the water ut BissePs Point. from
which the city's supply is drawn, was
third in purity, and Carondelet fourth.
From these facts he drew the conclusion
that sewage Is oxidized, and the water pu-
riicd by running freely in a stream

THE NEW YORK COMMISSION ON
COMPETING RAILROADS.

The report of the Board of Railroad
Commissioners of New York, for the year
1884, is just out, and is embraced in two
elaborate and large volumes. The Com
mission points out that the financial year
last past was profitable to but few rail
roads, improbable to many, and disastrous
to some. 1t thus dissbuse5 the public
mind of the fallacy that these corporations
are Of necessity, and at all times, money
making institutions, feeding upon the life
blood of commerce and extorting unnatural
profits. The causes, the Board points out,
were identical with those that obtain in
general commercial depression throughout
all civilized countries-and the chief of
them is over-production of almost every
staple article of human consumption and
second, excessive competition, which is
quite as likely to prove disastrous as the
lack oil all competition. One lesson drawn
by the Commission from the facts before
it is, that it is the hight of unwisdom to
permit any thirteen men who can secure
subscriptions of $4,000 per mile, with ten
per cent thereof paid in, to build rail
road anywhere they see fit, without an ex-
preston from the State of the public ex
igency for the same. Some illustrations
Of this i'll have been made upon this coast,
where the idea of unlimited competition
was entertained to excess. The New York
Board, considering this subject, uses this
language: When the State has under
taken the control Of railroads by the crea-
ton of supervisory boards, and has deter
mined to exact the highest standard of
service at reasonable rates of freight and
fare, II would certainly seem as if CORE
spending obligation rested upon it to pro-
tect existing railroads from useless and
disastrous competition by unnecessary new
ones" And again it says A road strug-
Cling along with disastrous competition with
an unnecessary parallel road, pleads pow
erty and financial inability to comply with
every recommendation of the Board, look
ing to better maintenance, or more conve-
nient operation. Even those measures
absolutely necessary for the safety of travel
are often neglected, and when recon-
mended by the Board, strenuously resisted
upon the ground that the road is not even
earning fixed salaries. The objection is
unanswerable when made to recommended
tons for more convenient or agreeable
maintenance, bat is not accepted by the
Board as a reason for not complying with
recommendations to insure the safety of
travel

TIE plan IS under discussion IN New
Orleans to cremate the garbage of the city
The States says: "This new plan for the
cremation of garbage meets with the APP
prevail Of sanitarians throughout the
United States The original cost of ere
matory is not great, and the expense at
tending its use is but trihe Not only
does it serve a sanitary purpose, but val
liable fertilizer is likewise produced which
commands a good price" Certainly, it is
the only sensible plan. To bury ii pollutes
the soil; to dump it or dessicate beneath
the sun, or rot under less favorable in
tiuences, coutaminates the atmosphere In
either process it engender5 disease. Heat
is the great purifier, and of all deoierizers
the chiefest. To establish a garbage Gre
matory equal to the disposal of the refuse
created by 10000 people, costs, according to
the estimate Of Boston company, $4,000
This IS upon the basis Of two pounds per
day for each human being. The cost OF
operation is simply the cost of fuel and
labor after the refuse is delivered. In Bos-
ton 4 company proposes to cremate the
refuse for the city, or to grant it a fran
chise to Use It's patent. If the city is
charged for the work it will be at the rate
of from ) to 10 cents per ton, the city de
livering the matter twice each day. The
fertilizer TO result will be worth to the
company from $40 to $50 per ton. In
both Boston and New Orleans the plan is
receiving very favorable attention.
