TAKE AWAY THE SCANDAL.

No one will expect great results from
the sixty days legislative labor which
began on Monday. The Assembly il
composed of intelligent, representative
men, who came here prepared to work
who are willing to work and will work
they know what should be done and how
to do it, but unfortunately the Territory
continues to be afflicted by an executive
who is hostile to the great majority OF
the people, and opposed to legislation
intended for the best good of the Teri
tory; and it is also unfortunate that the
executive enjoys the absolute veto
power, which enables him to defeat the
honest and intelligent work of session,
and defy the lawmakers and the people.
1t is because Of the known unreason-
able. vicious and determined hostility
of the Governor to the community and
its best good, that no one will look
for great results from the session,
Disoouraging as the outlook is, however,
it is believed that some laws which are
sadly needed can be gotten into the
statute books. Important among these
are laws in relation to sexual crimes
and offenses against good morals. At
one time the Territory was well pro-
Wded with laws of this character. and
they were enforced with good effect on
the community; but, through chang
ing the code, from oversight, and by in
tention, our law books are wofully de-
tective in the matter Of providing pen
alties for a certain class of offenders.
The defect should now be cured and we
believe it can be done. The necessity
for strict laws for Furnishing those guilty
of sexual offenses, and for checking the
spread of immortality, has been pain
fully apparent during the past two
years, and if common report may be
relied upon, is growing more pain
ful every day. Especially is this {
true of the two chief cities of the $
Territory, Salt Lake and Ogden Not T
'nly should laws be provided for reach I
ng all classes and places of immoral t
ty, but the hands of the local authori- t
les sheuld be strengthened that they i,
nay deal with the matter vigorously,
nd overcome the scandal that has
ately come upon the community.
No more important subject will be
etore the Assembly, and none should
'e more certainly provided for.

ANOTHER CRANK.

The Washington correspondent of th'
Philadelphia Times has discovered {
man who has another plan for the solu
; ton of the Mormon problem. He il
represented as ian educated gentleman
who has spent several years in the Nor
mon country and who has closely
observed the habits and prejudice of the
Mormon people" 1t requires half a
column for him to tell what he knows,
and elaborate his scheme. What he
knows of Utah and the Mormon people
seems to be absolutely nothing; the
pith of the method which he urges the
government to adopt with reference to
the Mormons, is condensed into one OF
his paragraphs as follows:
Troops ought to be placed in posses
sion of Lees Ferry, the only crossing of
the Colorado River for a distance OF
nearly a thousand miles, the canyons
of that river for all that distance being
from LOO to 5000 feet high, as are the
mountains running through eastern
Utah and across northern Arizona.
Troops ought to be placed at st. George
and at every other place at which
may prevent a long and enormously
costly war. At all events this would do
no more than to precipitate what is in
evitable by timid policy. There is on
this Rocky Mountain plateau popula-
ton who. in case of foreign war, would
sympathise and side with the enemy,
and who, have no doubt, Can to-day
place in the saddle and splendidly
equip 5000 of the best cavalrymen in
the world. They can substantially di- |
vide this continent, and hold possession |
OF their Territory for years.
1t was the editor of the Bridgeport,
Conn Standard who. a few days ago,
vas so much exercised about troops
coming here; he pointed out, 1T will be
the difficulties they would
encounter by the Echo route, and the
liabilities they would run to extermina-
ion at the hands of the irate Mormons;
lie also feared trouble for them at the
'ass about mile north of the city,--a
'ass which vigilant search has failed to
discover. The Washington gentleman
must be near relative of the Standard
ditor.
But isn't it about time that the
ranks and idiots ceased to talk about
oldiers as factor in solving the Utah
roblem? Armed troops can have no
art in the conduct of affairs out here;
here is no place for them to come into
lie quarrel, and nothing for them to do
the affair.

THE MORGAN RESOLUTION.

Senator Morgan, it will be seen By
reference to the report of the Congress
sional proceedings on Monday, has
struck the new Edmunds Bill in a vita
part. He has introduced a resolution
declaring that in the opinion of the
Senate, Congress has not the constitu.
tional power to appoint officers to part
icipate with the officers of any church
or religious sect in the management of
the affairs of church or sect. The SEN
ator is clearly right, and his resolution
would be adopted without disseuting
vote, if it were proposed to appoint gov
eminent trustees for any other church
than the Mormon. So fanatical are a
majority of the Senators, and so blinded
by prejudice that what is clearly uncon-
stitutional and out of their lawful power
to do, is done without hesitation against
the Mormons. The debate on Morgan's
resolution will certainly be interesting.
In order to preserve the Edmunds bill
and defend its provisions, the Vermont
Senator and others who voted for the
measure, will be obliged to assume a
position that no one can occupy and
still be consistent with the Constitution
and the theory of the government re-
garding freedom of worship. If they de-
clare their belief in the rightfulness and
legality of the appointment of trustees to
administer any of the affairs of the
Mormon Church, they must say also
that they believe Congress can make
avs providing for the management of
The finances of the Catholic or Methodist
Dr. any other church. We do not be-
ieye the resolution will be adopted, but
its introduction was clever proceeding
Tor placing Edmunds and pals in an
position.

The buffalo which has long been known
as the noblest animal native TO this re-
gion, has become almost extinct, having
been hunted to death, and is now found
mostly in portions of Montana and
Dakota. 1t is a mild, shy animal, its
characteristic being similar TO those Of
domestic cattle. The male is n proud,
strong-minded animal, and is famous for
its magnificent proportions and stately
air. Buffalo can run no faster than
horses, and are thus easily overtaken and
captured. Hunters spring upon them
from behind bluffs; they become startled,
and rush headlong in the greatest confu
sion. by reason OF which they always take
the wrong course, and are almost invari
ably captured.
They are so scarce now that their heads
are very valuable. Six years ago these
heads sold for e., now they sell for from
SIS to $50. They are considered invalu
able in a matter of collections, none. how
ever small, being considered complete
without them. Last year an Englishman
who was visiting Colorado paid the exorb-
liant price Of $3.50 for a pair OF heads which
he bought here, and considered the finest
he had ever seen.
The buffalo in the mountains are much
darker than those on the plains. They
are Of n rich brown color, the shades in
their fur varying from the darkest to the
palest brown. Between these shades there
are many lovely golden hues Of n deep
color, which are never so well seen rs
when the skins are spread out before an
open, blazing fire. The reflection OF the
freight brings out the varying shades AZ
nothing else will, and makes them "A sub

Repeal Of Some Land Laws.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20 The senate
committee on public lands, which has
been giving a great deal Of study to the
present condition of the land laws and the
manner in which they are being enforced,
some days ago appointed a sub commit
tee to draw up a single measure that
would remedy all faults in existing legis-
lation as far as possible. The committee
has prepared n bill which will be reported
favorably to the senate. 1t repeats all
laws providing for the presumption of pub
lie lands, the laws allowing entries for
timber culture and other purposes. How
ever, that this repeal shall not affect any
valid rights heretofore accrued under said
laws, but all bonaide claims lawfully mi
tiated before July l, 1856, may be prefer
red upon due compliance with the law, in
the same manner, upon the same terms
and conditions, and subject to the same
limitations, forleitures and contests. as if
this act had not been passed. One sec
ton of the proposed bill amends the act
for the sale of desert lands, and requires
that the person filing on desert land shall
reside thereon for five years, and during
that period cultivate said tract, and that
he or she, must be a citizen ofthe United
States. 1t also provides that the party
filing upon lands under this section shall
make his residence upon the same within
twelve months after filing, and that resi-
dence thereafter shall be continuous.
Any failure to reside upon said land for
more than six months shall work a for
fixture. No person is allowed to enter
more than 800 acres, and hat is to be in
compact form. This act shall only apply
to California, Oregon, Colorado and Ne
vada, and the territories of Washington,
Idaho, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, Ariz-
ona, New Mexico and Dakota.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-1he house
committee on labor to. day instructed
Representative James to report lavorably

eminent Of the United States to contract
with any persons or corporation, or per
nit any official of any state prison where
criminals of the United States may be
incarceratcd, TO hire or contract out the
labor of said criminals, and imposing a
fine of from $500 to $1,000, or imprison-
ment for one to three years, for violations
of the act. The subcommittee having
charge of the convict labor question, re
ported favorably the bill prohibiting the
use of material made by convicts in the

rnIRp DAY's rRocEEpINds.


DENVER, Jan. 29.-The third day of
the international convention was called to
order at 10 this morning. After some
preliminary business, the committee on
resolutions reported favorably upon the
resolution to appoint committees to confer
with Eastern live stock merchants to sc
cure a change of commission from per
capita to per head, and the investigation
of the possibility OF the speedy completion
of the Denver & New Orleans railroad to
the gull, and several minor resolutions.
A. II. Swan of Wyoming, asked to de
liver an address on pooling shipments OF
beef cattle of the arid region" sent a letter
stating he did not believe that it could be
made generally satisfactory on account of
the vast amount Of territory to cover, and
advised the convention to take no action
upon the subject.
NJ. Mundy, of FL Paso, sent a paper
on THE Department of the Interior and
Northern Mexico" He stated that Old
Mexico would soon ask the United States
to allow her to take steers across the
country to British America in bond by
rail; that there we're one hundred million
acres of fine grazing land in Mexico which
will support three times as many cattle as
are now upon it, but settlement is re-
tarded on recount of Indians. Upon
this subject he says: 1.-The United States
is not only imposing upon Mexico and the
pioneers OF the United States by leaving
barbarous Indians on reservations scat
tered over the frontier, but imposing
upon the multiplied thousands of her
laborers east, who need employment to
manufacture machinery and other nipple
ments to develop the mines and other
resources of northern Mexico and the
United States. These enemies of civili-

Dlseussing the Polish Question.

BERLIN, Jan. 29.-Thc discussion of
the Polish expulsions was continued in the
lower house of the landtag this evening.
The Polish members denied that the Poles
were trying to eliminate the German Gle
ment from Eastern Prussia, although they
confessed that hope was entertained of
the restoration of the Polish kingdom.
Herr Won putlkamcr, minister of the in
terror, replied that any efforts to obtain n
establishment of the Polish kingdom
would constitute m act Of high treason.
The government, he said, did not wish to
hamper the Poles in regard to their re
ligion or their language, but it felt com

The Queen Calls on Gladstone


LONDON, Jan. 29.-Thc queen has ac-
cepted the resignation of Lord Salisbury
and his cabinet, aud has summoned Mr..
Gladstone for consultation.
The latest number of the Nnetecah
Century contains an article by Arnold
Forster, which has created a sensation
here. The writer recalls that Irishmen
were at the bottom of the Molly Mcguire
conspiracy in Pennsylvania; hat Irish
men plotted against the officials and Chi
nese in San Francisco; that the Tammany
ring was largely supported by Irish citi-
zens, and that the Boston police were
tempered with by the Irish politicians of
that city. The history Of the world shows,
he says, that the Irish engage in eonspi-
racies wherever they may go, and he adj
vises that the English government exer-
else firmness in its treatment of ireland,
otherwise a r%econquest of that country will
be necessary.
The Fortnightb Rerico publishes a
political article which is generally sup
posed to reflect the views of Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain on the present crisis. The
writer expresses great regret at the tim
idity' of the Wings, who seem to be
afraid to face the land question. Their
opposition, he says, foiled the former
attempt to settle this great issue. and he
urges them to reconsider the whole sub
ject now. The writer says he thinks a
few months will reveal the dissensions
which he maintains are now dormant in
the Nationalist party, and intimates that
the falling off in American donations to
the league treasury will bring Mr.. Par
nell to the point of conforming his de
mands to what E~nglishmen may justly
grant. In conclusion, the writer says if
England ever yields to the Irish demand
for a native parliament she will have no
guarantee against an eventual separation
of Ireland from Great Britain.
Previous to Mr.. Gladstone being
summoned. it was reported hat the queen
hesitated between the ex-premier and
Lord Huntington. and had ordered the
ministers not to surrender their seats of
office until Monday.
The official journal of Athens denies
that the attitude of the Greek cabinet
has changed, Lord Salisbury has i%nstruc-
ted Admiral Hay, commander of the
English editeranean squadron, to en-
ploy force against the Greeks wherever
they attack Turkey.
