Must Answer with Hi. Life.

We have reviewed this most vOluminous
record OF the proceedings of the Hastings
| Court in this protracted aud difficult trial.
and we find no error OF law, or OF fact, which
would justify this appellate court In inter-
| feriDg with the verdict of the jury or the
| Judgment OF the court.
The prisoner las had fair and impartial
| trial. He has been defended both In the
| Hastings Court and In this court OF review
| by able, experienced, and most faithful
counsel and the law has been INDICATED
| in the result.
Justice TO the prisoner, and mercy to all
| the innocent public, whom the impunity
| and second offence of the prisoner would
"after gall" alike demand that he shall
now pay the penalty of his crime, and,

THE DUSKIN CASE.

A Washington dispatch, published in
our telegraphic columns to-day, states
that during the present week, commenc-
ing this afternoon, the time of the Senate
will be almost exclusively taken up in
the discussion OF the resolutions reported
from the Judiciary Committee concerning
the refusal OF the Attorney-General to
transmit to the Senate, in executive ses-
sion, all the papers in the Duskin case.
In this case the Senate adopted a reso-
luton directing the Attorney-General to
transmit copies OF all documents and pa
pers that have been filed in the Depart
ment OF Justice since January LIST, 1885,
in relation to the management and
conduct OF the Office of District
Attorney of the United States for the
Southern District OF Alabama. The an
swer of the Attorney-General was that
the papers referred to have exclusive
reference TO the suspension by the Presi
dent of George NJ, Duskin, and 'it is no

JUDGE SPRAGUE AND THE "TRI.
BUNE."

In reply to an editorial note which ap-
peared in yesterdays Tribune, U. 5.
Commissioner Sprague sends to the DEM
ocRAT the following communication
SALT LAKE Cry, March 8, 1886.
EDITOR DEMOCRAT: l congratulate the
Tribune on its progress towards sanity, as
indicated by its article in Sundays issue. If
so brief yoking of "the Tribune up in
team with the NeiUs" has been the means of
this marked improvement in its manners,
the union ought to continue indefinitely.
To be sure, in order not to be entirely un-
true to itself, it intimates that / quoted
falsely clause, which neither was nor pur-
ported to be n quotation or attempt at
quotation: but this is only a triie, and in
consideration of its comparative fairness, L
will state why did not defend my ruling in
the Treseder case. 1t is
First, and chieay-Because no judicial
officer, whether he be justice of the peace, or
higher, ought to recognize responsibility, for
his rulings to newspaper, any more than
he should to any other form of street clamor
Secondly-That paper would publish the
bosh, written by an alleged editor, too, OF
claiming a right to instruct courts as .tc
their duties, is pr'ima Jdcie evidence of in
grounds of any ruling whatever.
TO say, with the implication that it applies
in any way to the Tribune, SIT has, too, as
much interest in the public good as any
court, and is as strenuous as any to prevent
injustice being done," certainly shows tha
the fool-killer is remiss in his duty.

IN MUCH THE SAME FIX.

A dispatch from Louisville says Ken
tucky, like Utah, is truly in bad way.
Her treasury is empty, she is bonded to
the utmost constitutional limit, and the
Legislature shows no signs of doing any
thing to relieve her. On Thursday last,
for the first time in the history OF the
grand old commonwealth, members OF
the Legislature could not get their war
rants for salaries cashed because of
lack OF funds. "Th!s," says the dispatch,
sis the heaviest blow yet dealt the
Legislature. Manyof the hayseed states
men draw their money every two or
three days, and the idea OF not getting it
for some time will be the only thing that
will force them to an early adjournment.
The Legislature has already exceeded
the legal session, and but five bills of II
public character have been squeezed
through"
The prospect before the Utah legis-
lators is equally bright, for it seems they
are determined not to make any pro.
vision for the payment OF the Territory's
Indebtedness to the General Government,
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-03-08
SHOULD MEMORABILIA CONGRESS

The suggestion is made by the Nor
mon press that copies of all the bills
vetoed by Governor Murray should be
sent on to Washington and laid before
Congress, and that before adjourning the
Legislature should adopt memorial ask
ing Congress TO give this Territory such
relief as, under the circumstances, may
in the wisdom of that body be deemed
necessary.
1t is to be hoped that the suggestion
will be acted upon. Before the bills are
sent on to Washington, the brethren
should not forget to attach copies OF the
veto messages, for obvious reasons. And
as to memoralizing Congress for relief,
that is something which should be done
by all means. The new Edmunds bill
still remains in the hands of the House
Judiciary Committee, and memorial
from the Utah Legislature would un'
doubtedly resolve the committee to re-
port it instanter and the House to pass it
with rush.
The members of both houses OF Con
gress are just now in an excellent humor
to consider memorials from a Mormon
Legislature, and it is our solemn belle
that ii the proper representations N,
now made in Washington, the Saints vii
not only get all the legislation they want
but good deal more than even the,
have the assurance to ask for oh n,
all means, send on memorial

THE SISTERS MEETING.

Ii Sin multitude of counsellors there
is safety" then the frightened priesthood,
girt about with Amazonians in mass
meeting assembled, may take courage.
This, from one standpoint, makes last
Saturdays female gathering at the Tire
atre Il success. But when one remem-
bers that feminine doctors were the
principal speakers and actors on that oc-
casion, the reminder smells rank to
heaven Of u defunct corporation and con-
sequent post moriem action. Each OF the
quartette of doctors had diagnosed the
case and were in accord on the final de-
cision. They protested against Uncle
Sans heroic treatment Of the polygamous
victim, and appealed to Aaronic and Mel
chisedecian systems as authority for their
clamorous protest. They denounced the
homeopathic doses OF one wife for one
man, and insisted upon allopathic rem
edies OF from seven to nineteen sisters to
every priest.
"Under .he nations law" cried one OF
the imported healcrs, "the seducer and
destroyer had no fear OF deputy"
And iE this connection, who does not re-
member that unfortunate old man, now
happily in his grave on yonder barren
hillside, who seduced from his English
home and the faithful wife of his youth,
was lecoyed to this polygamous Zion,
and when broken down by old age and
abuse, was, on pretense OF insanity, sent to
that whited sepulcher on the east bench,
and afterward turned from his own house
to exposure, freezing and death! The
remembrance OF that old mans dishonor
and tragic end should place the seal oi
eternal silence on the lips of "seducers
and destroyers."
Let us turn to less repulsive themes
Not only medical science but poetic
fancies graced the stage at that Theatrical
exhibition OF the daughters OF Zion. In
the motley gathering of war vessels or
the Union side during the war of the Re
bellion, there were double-enders -
with sharpened bows where the sterr
ought to be. They were built and riggei
W biii way Mith Oluui ~
the intermnable verses OF the poeti,
daughters of Zion could be read backward
forward or from the middle, with equa
rhyme and reason. Shade OF the i'm
mortal Penrose, cast in all the amplitud
OF hustle and sunbonnet, how art tho
outraged by this modern pontoon bridg
of doggerel "double-enders.
In one respect the sisters showed thei
superiority over the male brawlers OF tn
Tabernacle. Instead OF opening thei
mouths only to put their feet into them
they came around with rolls OF MANI
script with fixed ammunition.
There was more fun in the Theatr
than can be obtained out OF Logan con
ference

"PAY OR NO PAY !"

Probably the last place to look for wit
with any expectation OF hearing its ex-
preston, is in the Territorial Legislature
OF Utah, now in session. An incident
occurred this morning that may be al
legged to border upon the brilliant.
The Mormon outfit on assembling for
the usual sit-out OF u two hours session
to illustrate chow not to do it," were as
whole in rather melancholy state OF
mind. Senator Cullom's resolution in the
United States Senate relating to the per
diem OF these ould-be-solons (the par
ticulars OF which were given in last
Saturdays issue OF the DEMOCRACY
struck these chaps just in the pit of
the stomach. Not yet have they quite
recovered breath. Before the morning
session began, Mclaughlin, OF Summit
county dhc only Gentle in the Legisla-
ture) rallied the Chaplain upon being
"direlict to duty, OF going off before the
close OF the session on Saturday last, and
that Representative King had to put q
holy period to their work in the Chap
lain's absence by pronouncing a benedic-
ton that the Chaplain was sordid, and
a doubt OF getting pay for his prayers hat
discouraged his piety," etc. Chaplai
Hall declared solemnly he had to leave
in order to catch train-and Just ther
the members were called to order by tn
Speaker The Chaplain took his plac,
at once and proceeded to invoke Al
mighty assistance for the duties OF TIN
day, and in closing his prayer PLEADED
"for Divine grace for each member, wis
dom to discharge their whole duty, pa
tience to bear with the wiles of their MT
mcrous adversaries, and to come off con
: querors over all assailants, standin
} firmly and unwaveringly in their place
} on the walls OF Zion, to defend it again'
all enemies from without or within, an
} to do all this manfully, PAY OR No PAY
An enthusiastic outburst of "AMEN !!
came from all parts OF the house, an
Speaker Riter's sonorous voice added, .
fully concur" A roar OF laughter followe
this sally and continued into quite q
' encroachment OF the morning hours.

considered that the public interest will
be promoted by compliance with said
resolution and the transmission OF the
papers and documents therein mentioned
to the Senate in executive session."
The Judiciary Committee, to whom the
matter was referred, returned majority
report, maintaining that the Senate had
an undoubted right to examine the papers
called for, but the Democratic members
the Committee, in a minority report, deny
that right in this case, or in any case
when the papers relate exclusively or
materially to removals or suspensions by
the President. "No such resolution as
that now before the Senate" says the
minority report, "was ever obeyed.
Every precedent cited in the report OF the
majority has for its foundation the consti-
tutional power of the Senate to partici-
pate with the President in the official act
to which the papers called for related.
The demand in the present case upon the
Attorney-General necessarily implies that
in the judgment of the majority OF the
committee the Senate has the same
power over removals that it has over ap-
pointments."
"In conclusion" the report says, 1.-THE
minority OF your committee are gratiiicd
at being able to state that in the Forty
sixth Congress, when The Democrats had
majority in tle Senate, no such spccta-
Gle as that now exhibited to the country
was ever witnessed in the history of its
proceedings"

DEATH OF SENATOR MILLER.

brief dispatch from Washington, re-
ceived at late hour to-day, announces
the death in that city this afternoon OF
Senator John +. Miller of California.
Senator Miller was born in Indiana, in
1881, his parents being Virginians. In
1852 he graduated at the New York State
Law School, and soon thereafter went to
California and entered upon the practice
of law In 1869 he entered the army as
Colonel OF the Twenty-ninth Indiana
Volunteers, and was soon placed in COM
mand of brigade, serving under Sherman,
Buell., Rosecrans and Thomas, and receiv-
ing severe wounds in the battles OF Stone
River and Liberty Gap. In July, 1868,
he was laid out on the battlefield with a
shot through the eye. A year later he
returned to duty minus an eye and richer
only by the increased pay which came
with his promotion to the rank OF Briga-
derGeneral.
In 1866 he returned to San Francisco,
with Il commission as Collector OF that
Port, in which capacity me served for four
years and declined reappointment. AT
the close OF his term he fell in with General
Lowell II. Rosseau, whom President john
son had sent to Alaska rs United
States Commissioner to receive that Ter
ritory from the Russian authorities, and
a man named Hutchison, to whom GER
tain fur-hunting privileges had been
granted. General Miller and Hutchison
formed what is known rs the Alaska
Commercial Company, and it enriched
both and others beside. Honors followed
riches in rapid succession, and in 1881 he
was elected to the Senate from California
rs Republican, to succeed Newton
Booth, and took his seat March 4th o
that year.
General Miller was liberal with hi
wealth, though not wasteful. The cause
OF his death is not mentioned in the
dispatch, but is supposed to be dis
ease very similar to asthma.

That bill-o, that bill-o, that bill-o!

The Mormon elders who have been
making converts in northern Alabama. says
the New York Sun, have been firmly invited
to leave the State. They very unwisely de.
cline to CO. The Alabama farmers will not
make martyrs of them, but their chances of
getting stripes and even tar and feathers are
excellent. The South is still an old fash
ioned country, and it has prejudice against
polygamy. The Mormon preachers should
yield to this prejudice before it takes the
form of hickory switches or something

and until that money is paid, or some
action taken by them looking toward its
payment, their salaries will be withheld
and applied on account. OF course, it is
only matter OF time until the Govern
ment will be reimbursed for every cent it
has advanced to Utah, and in refusing to
