1t has just been discovered in Oregon that
the Ku KluX statute Of 1874 exactly fits the
crime of the anti-Chinese rioters. This law
Furnishes with fine of $500 to 5000
and Imprisonment for six months to six
years any persons "who go in disguise upon
the highway, or upon the premises of anoth-
er, for the purpose of depriving, either di-
rectly or indirectly, any person, or class of
persons, of the equal protection of the
laws" The leaders of the recent mob in
Oregon City were masked, and thus put
themselves within the scope Of this law,
which seems as perfectly adapted to their
offense as if it was enacted for that purpose
alone. Notwithstanding their disguise, two
of the ruffians were known to an intelligent
Chinese contractor, and, having the advan-
tage of considerable legal advice, he has had
them arrested under the Ku-KluX law"

GROWING DITsRUsT IN ENGLISH FREE
TRADE.
London Post
The British Workmen find a further cause
of the lack of employment IN the conqltion
of labor which our system OF Free trade I'M
poses upon us. 1t is unnecessary here to re-
capitulate the arguments against the So
called Free Trade, which means freedom to
the foreigner and the closest Protection
against the English artisan. The subject has
been already treated more than once in these
columns. But one point is worth notice.
There could not be more convincing testi-
mopv to the necessity for the Commission of
Tnouiry appointed by the Conservative gov
eminent than this movement OF the working
men. The theorists of the Golden Club may
reiterate their well worn platitudes as often
as they choose. Appeals to the name of
Golden and the other heroes OF the Anti-corn
Law days may be comforting to the Radical
capitalists, who have certainly progressed
under Free Trade, but the fact remains that
the working men, who are most directly in
terested, are daily, under the pressure of
want, showing more and more clearly that
they distrust the great doctrine Under
these circumstances it was plainly the duty
as well as the interest of the government to
make thorough investigation of our econo-
mic system If Free Trade, as we have it,
is really beneficial to the workingman, it
would have come out of the ordeal trium-
phantly. and the unemployed artisan would
have to look elsewhere for the cause of the
wrongly he is now up in arms against that
system which Radical economists refused
even to submit to Investigation.

In an article headed " No Mormon

support of ats. title. the article sets
forth two reasons-one. that the

Mormon "surrenders his conscience
and his judgment to the keeping and
dictstion Of others, and dave around
him a mantle Of superstition which he
has not the strength to shake off,; the
second, that the Mormon believes in
continuous revelation. The first point
is sufficiently answered by drawing at
tention to the thousands of apostates IN
the Territory who have shaken off
Mormonism,
In this connection, too. il is worth
mention that the Tribune itself was
founded by apostate AoTmons, was for
years edited by cthers, and was until
recently largely owned by the same
element. That the people Of Utah are
as free from compulsioh as those Of
Nevada, is fact proven by daily oc-
curencss,
OF the second alleged point, that q
belief in continuous revelation should
be Barrier. II is desired to say more on
another occasion. For the present it is
sufficient to ask, If there is mo room
under the egis of the American Con-
stitution for God to set up church,
which shsuld be in constant communi-
cation with Him7
~ Under the sappositions that Mormon
ism is wrong, if the Greater desired to
unseal the heavens Of brass and speak
once again, through chosen servants,
is there not sufficient liberty in these
United States for Him to be permitted
to do so7 If not, then, indeed, is
liberty at Lev shh, since in its chosen
home, The elect may not worship God

he held office, from the per

that belongs to manhood-the exercise

deep interest settles in the case, and its

VIII be a warning 10 deputies that they
will be held snswerable TO law for ex-
cesses and crimes; that they must re-
spect the rights of individual citizens,
and be as cautious as others against
shooting down defenseless men.
Thompson will be placed on trial next
week, and TIE HERALD, with ali good
citizens, asks for him fair trial. We
ask that popular prejudice be not per-
mitted to influence the court or jury
against him; We ask that all his right.
before the law be religiously guarded,
that 10 right or privilege to which he
is entitled be denied him, and that NJ
advantage be taken of him. If he is
unable TO employ competent attorneys,
it is the duty of the court to see
that lawyers he designated 70 con-
duct his defense. Neither money
nor effort should be spent in securing
the accused every point of defense
which the law provides, If he shall be
made to suffer through an abuse of the
laS, through popular prejudice or from
q denial of any of his rights all good |
people will regret and demand that re-
paration be made and justice done.
At the same time the public demand
is that the deputy be not relieved of any
of the responsibility for his deed. If he
is guilty, and it shall be so proven, let
him be punished for his crime ami as a
warning 20 over-zealous deputies who |
have imagined that they were above
the law in whatever they did. 1t is de-
msnded that jury warranted to ac-
quit, no matter what the evidence may |
establish, be not impaneled; that the
fact that Thompson is a rabid anti
Mormon and the court is under the |
control of anti-Mormons, be not made |
to operate in his behalf; that the other |
fact that ne killed s Mormon be not !
held to be meritorious deed deserving |
of praise rather than censure, aud that |
be be prosecuted for what he has done
and not for what he is or his victim
was.
The HERALD simply asks in this case,
as it asks in all others, that justice be |
done; that if the accused shall be
proven guilty he will be punished, aad
if it shall be shown that the killing was
iustifabIe, the defendant viii be acouit-
ted. Keep both malice snd faEoritism
out of the case, and all VIII be satisfied |
with the result, no matter what it may
be.
