ONE AND INsEPARABLE.

The relations OF the Church and State
in Utah may very well be described as
being one and inseparable. To say 80 is
to say nothing new nor to make any dis
covery, but at times one sees evidences
of this close relationship which call the
fact plainly to the attention. Such an
evidence is afforded by the circular which
Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. Cannon, ''of the
First Presidency OF the Church of Jesus
Christ OF Latter-day Saints" addressed to
the Presidents OF Stakes and their
Counselors, the Bishops and their
Counselors, and the Latter-day Saints
generally" ON May 26, 1885, and of which
Governor Murray spoke in his message.
1t is much the same as all the circulars
and epistles that Mr.. Taylor and Mr..
Cannon send forth, and the great interest
that attaches to the present circular
the fact that it frequently refers TO the
Chairman of the Territorial Central Com
mittee and the Committee. That COM
mittee is merely an instrument in the
hands OF the Mormon church, and its
only use or excuse is that it exists for the
purpose of carrying out the plans and
purposes OF the Mormon church in Utah
If this is not so, why is it that the circu-
lar speaks as follows concerning the
Chairman of this committee. 1t says
every effort should be used in collect
ing funds and in remitting them to Chair
man John Sharp" What are the funds,
for which an urgent call is made, to be
used? For the purpose of defending
all members Of the church who may be
charged with the commission OF crime.
The consequence is that the Territorial

Central Committee OF the Peoples party
is an agency for the collection and dis
bursement Of funds for the defense
of men charged with violating the
laws OF the land. That committee and
the party it represents are but instru-
ments of the church dominant in Utah
for furthering and conserving the inter-
ests of that church. II this is not 80, why
do the President Of the church and his
First Counselor call on the Presidents
OF Stakes and their Counselors, the
Bishops and their Counselors, and the
Latter-day Saints generally" call upon
them, saying, "energy should be used in
collecting funds, and in remitting them to
Chairman John Sharp" The Chairman
accounted to some one for the funds so
received, and as they were raised by the
officers and members OF the church at the
behest OF the church, the Chirman, no
doubt, accounted to the church; all of
which goes to show that it is the church
first in all things. The Chairman Of the
Territorial Central Committee of the
Peoples party recognizes the author
ity of the church over him as politi-
cal person, or he would not have per-
mitted the church to designate him
as its agent. If this is not the case,
and the Chairman was acting solely in
his political capacity, why did he not ad-
dress the County Committees OF the Peo-
ple's party, and act right through as a
citizen placed at the head Of political
organization? All this proves nothing
new, but merely what always has been,
and always will be 30 long as the Peoples
party retains control of political affairs in
Utah, that Church and State, the Nor
mon church and the Peoples party, are
one and inseparable in Utah Territory.

TIMBER CUTTING.

Commissioner Sparks has instituted
number of suits to recover damages for
the cutting Of timber on the public lands.
In this he is merely carrying out the law,
and to him personally no blame can be
attached. No one in the West owns tim
Der lands, that is in Utah and the adjacent
Territories, but all the Territories in the
West require great quantities of timber
to carry on the chief industries OF this
section OF country. The timber laws OF
the country were enacted with view to
"other times and other climes." They
need thorough revision, for their appli-
cation in the West works continual hard
ships, and the more thoroughly they
are enforced in this part of the
country, the more thoroughly they
retard the development Of the country.
The timber laws were passed for the BEN
eft OF the actual settler, and their en-
forcement in Utah is an actual detriment
to the actual settler. Timber in Utah is
about as valuable to the Government as
chateaux in Spain, and the laws made
for the preservation of timber ON the
public lands are just as we'll suited to the
government of chateaux in Spain as for
the regulation of timber cutting in the
mountains. Congress should take some
action in the matter and make positive
rules and regulations in regard to the
public lands and the timber growing
thereon, for now the whole subject seems
to be left to the caprice of the Secretary
of the Interior and the Commissioner of
thu General Land Office, and every time
these change, the rules and regulations
for the government of the public lands
and timber growing thereon are changed.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

The DEMOCRAT made number Of rec
concentrations to the Legislature, and we
are pleased to say that the recommends
ton in regard to bail has been acted
upon. We trust that Mr.. West, the
member who introduced the amendment
in regard to bail, will introduce bill
abolishing capital punishment. Govern
ments punish offenses against their laws,
primarily, for protection, and the punish
ment inflicted, it is hoped, will deter
others from the commission of crime.
When society in its capacity of govern
ment has full control over the violators
OF its laws, society is protected against
such violators. When society has full
control of the murderer has it not full
protection so far as the particu-
lar offender is concerned? 1t GER
tainly has. Why then the need
for the existence OF capital punishment?
When man is murdered his immediate
relatives feel the effects OF the crime
more than any one else, and the State
looks upon the wrong done them as a
wrong to them as citizens, and not as rel
atives, and 80 will not permit the injured
relatives to avenge the death of their
kinsman, and Furnishes his murderes, not
for revenge, but for the protection of So
ciety, which is an aggregation of indi-
viduals. Centuries ago society permitted
the relatives of a murdered man to
avenge his death, but society then was
barbarous, and the barbarians OF Africa
to-day do the same thing. But
such practices are inconsistent with
civilization. We take it that no
one will say that society punishes
for the purpose of revenge, but always for
protection. When full and ample protec-
ton can be had without the infiiction of
the death penalty, why infiet that
penalty? To this it may be answered
that the Bible says that "who so sheddeth
mans blood by man shall his blood be
shed" If the Bible is to be the guide
in the matter OF punishments, then we
shall have the adulterer stoned to death,
and yet the crime OF adultery is not
known to the laws OF Utah Territory.
But ii he who sheds mans blood must
have his blood shed by man, why give the
murderer who is to suffer death the Oh
ton OF being hung in place of having his
blood shed? Society is no more protected
when a murderer is dead than when he
is immured in prison for life. Neither
does the inhiction of the death penalty
deter men from committing murders.
Murders are very rarely committed in
such manner that the conviction
OF those who perpetrate them can
be convicted without the aid of crcum-
stancial evidence, and the doubts to
which circumstantial evidence give rise
in the minds of jurors most frequently go
TO free the man charged with crime from

the consequences of crime. Capital pun
ishment is relic OF barbarism and should
be abolished. II capital punishment is q
proper punishment, why is 1t that a
marshal or sheriff when he has to carry
out the sentence of the law and execute
man always hires someone to shoot or
hang the convict? Why is it that the
man or men who hire their services for
such work never want it known that they
executed man with all the sanction and
solemnity Of the law? Because such men
feel, and Justly feel, that, were il known
that they had been hangmen, they
would I've Stunned by all men, al
though they had but done their
duty as officers of the law.
Why should the citizen shun the COM
mon hangman, when the hangman has
but carried out the decree OF the citi-
zen? No citizen should refuse to execute
the laws of his country when he thinkc
those laws proper and just; and yet
there is not citizen of the Territory who
would openly and publicly perform the
part OF a hangman. Their sense of
decency and humanity forbid them to do
such thing and it is to their credit that
it does but that same sense should make
them call aloud for the adjustment Of a
law in whose public execution they would
refuse to take part. Let the Legislature
expurgate such barbarous thing as
capital punishment from the statutes Of
the Territory, and substitute imprison-
ment for life for it. Remember that So
ciety only Furnishes for protection, never
for revenge
