A SIGNIFICANT SPEECH.
Beae0nsfiesd's Policy EulOgfzeh by

LONDON, July 29.--Lord Salisbury
made significant speech at the Lord
Mayors banquet this evening. He eulo-
gized the policy of the late Lord Bea-
consfeld in dealing with the Afghan
question. That policy was to establish a
scientific frontier for India, and after to
claim nothing more but to accept moth
ing less. He hoped that when the next
Lord Mayors banquet was held the Con
servative leaders would be able to show
peace with Russia and the prosperity Of
Egypt assured.

APPOINTEES.

There are a number Of our fellow
townsmen are said to be applicants for
various Offices. Some are worthy and
some are not. That there is great need
OF d change and improvement in the Fed
eral officers now here is generally con-
ceded. With the exception of two or
three of the present incumbents all
might be spared with profit, perhaps
with pleasure. The judgeship of the
First Judicial District will soon be made
vacant by the resignation OF Mr.
Justice Emerson. The judgeship of
the Second Judicial District is filed
by a gentleman who has not the conf
dence of the bar, a thing which
is most essential. 1t is for poiit-
ical improvement we seek and
naught else, for many OF the gentle
men who fill the more important offices
are leaders in society, and are said to be
most genial and excellent company; of
this we know nothing.

denim personalities in journalism. To
the gentleman who edits and conducts the
Enqujrerwe shall always be respectful, no
matter how much we may differ from him
politically, and we know we shall receive
the same consideration from him. But
we think that to call the Democratic Club
of Utah "leaderless mob is in as bad
taste as to call the Peoples Party band
of slaves, and that such epithets should
be entirely discarded in journalism. The
Democratic Club may be mob, and it
may be leaderless, and it may be that its
chiefest merit is to have sprung up un-
hidden even by F1eaders."

TIE manner in which the strikers at
Marshall, Texas, are conducting them
selves is commendable, and gives assur-
ance of moderation in all their actions.
1t would also seem that the strikers on
the Southwestern and Wabash systems
are inclined to return to work, and are
only prevented from so doing by the
trades unions, which seem to have much
greater solicitude for their own authority
than those from whom it is derived.

was also excused. He said he was a
member Of the Mormon Church but was
IN doubt as to his standing. He was de-
cidedly opposed to the practice of polvga-
my, and believed the revelation on that
subject was bogus. In the absence of
law III the matter, he would consider that
any man who had two living and un-
divorced wives, or who cohabited with
more than one woman, was guilty of a
moral wrong. He was challenged
Isaac Jennings said he thought he was
a member of the Mormon" Church. but
did not consider himself in fellowship
with that body. He believed polygamv
morally wrong. Did not think the revela- |
ton on the doctrine Of polygamy was
from God. Regarded it as spurious. He |
had no prejudice nor bias in opposition |
to the prosecution against polygamy. He
was accepted and sworn.
MIR. John D. Spencer was the next
juror examined. He was also a "Mor-
mon," as were his family and many of his
relatives. He considered himself in
SoOu ieiOWshp Win the members OF
that Church. But when Mr.. Dickson
touched upon his belief concerning the
doctrine of having more than one wife at
one time, Mr.. Spencer stated frankly that
he did not believe it right. He was scarcely
to say that he considered
the revelation on celestial matri-
age spurious, but at the same time he did
not believe in it. He admitted that it
might have been given of God, but be-
lieved that it was morally wrong to prac-
tice it. In his opinion there was no per-
son living who was good enough and pure
enough to live proper life in the prac-
tice of polygamy. He thought the prin-
ciple of plural marriage was revealed
from God and that the revelation enioined
obedience on the part of those who be-
ieved it, but still he considered it wrong
or any one to OBEY it.
