succumb to the law. Remarks we're
made by several other gentlemen, and
the following resolutions were adopted;
Resolved, That in the sense of this, com.
mittee, experience has demonstrated that
the only effectual remedy for the evils exist
ing in Utah is appropriate Legislation by
Congress which will withdraw all political
power from the alien organization which mas
so long dominated said Territory and used
such delegated power TO aggrandlze ltselI
and antagonize National laws and instltu-
tions. - -.
Resolued That Hon. Il. N. Baskin, being
fully conversant with the views and wishes
of the liberals of said Territory, is hereby
appointed their duly authorized agent and
representative, and requested to proceed at
once TO Washington charged with the duty
of impressng those views on Members of
Congress and the President.
The DEMOCRAT can give these resolu-
tions its hearty endorsement. To further
strengthen Mr.. Baskin's hands, the
Democratic Central Committee should
now get together and arrange for
meeting which the masses OF the
party can attend, and at which they
can be given an opportunity to
endorse the selection of Mr. Baskin as the
Gentle delegate to Washington. Too
much earnestncss cannot be shown in
this matter, and too much publicity can
not be given 10 everything connected
with the selection and endorsement OF q
delegate and the discussion OF measures
which Congress may be asked to enact
into laws for this Territory.
There should be no further delay in Civ

dorsement to what has already beef
done, if they approve OF it, and that the

THE LIBERAL MEETING.

The Territorial Central Committee OF
the Liberal party held meeting yester-
day afternoon, pursuant to the call OF its
chairman, for the purpose OF taking into
consideration the political situation in
Utah and advising such action thereon
as might be deemed expedient.
In the course OF his remarks made at
the opening OF the meeting, Judge Me
Bride said that events had SO shaped
themselves during the past few weeks as
to make it imperatiyely necessary that
the Liberals should come together, talk
over the situation and suggest the
passage by Congress OF measures which
will forever settle the questions that have
grown up here out of Mormon lust and
misgoyernment. Judge Rosborough ac-
quesced in all that Judge Mcbride had
said, and predicted that the time was
close at hand when the priestly power
which holds sway here would have tc

MIR. CANNON'S BONDS.

When the polygamous Apostle George
Q. Cannon was arrested a short while
back, and required to give bonds in the
sum Of $4,000 for his appearance when
wanted in the Grand Jury room and in
the District Court, a great howl went up
from the Mormon press about excessive
ball." and the action OF the Judge and
the Commissioner who held that bonds in
the amount named would have to be
given before Cannon could be released,
was characterized as wanton disregard
OF all precedent in such cases and a gross
outrage upon the rights of the defendant.
1t was urged that the offenses
with which Mr.. Cannon stood charged
were simple misdemeanors, and no rea-
son existed why bonds in excess Of the
amount exacted in other cases where
misdemeanors were charged, should be
exacted from this defendant. The Dis
trict Attorney, the Judge and the Com
missioner, however, were under the inn
preston that very good reasons existed
why heavy bail should be required in the
case, and the sequel proves that their
| judgment was not at fault.
| Street rumor now has it that whenever
an attempt shall be made to collect from
Cannon's bondsmen the amounts for
| which they became sureties, n vigorous
fight will be made by those gentlemen to
worm out OF the responsibility, in part
at least, and in the legal fight the point
Of excessive bail" will be made to cut a
prominent figure. The rumor is given
for what it is worth, but the fact that
cases are rare indeed where matters OF
this kind are settled without fight, leads
| to the belief that this will be no eXcep-
tion to what has become almost rule.
OF course, this is something the court
will have to decide, ii fight OF repudia-
ton shall be entered upon, but in the
meantime, those gentlement who are
offering to bet that the amounts cannot
be collected, should remember that the
bonds were approved by two of the
ablest lawyers to be found within the
Territory and it does not show good bet
ting sense, unless fortified by the opin
ions of equally eminent attorneys, for
men who have little or no knowledge o
the discretion which the law vests il
Judges and Commissioners in the mat
ter OF admitting persons to bail, to set ny
their judgment against that of mel
learned in all the intricacies OF the law
and back their judgment with money
too.
Gas to the matter OF Excessive bail, ,
as remarked above, the Judge, Commits
sioner and District Attorney have, W,
think, as the matter now stands, got
little the best OF the bargain, for the yer,
fact that Mr.. Cannon stood not upon thu
order OF his going, but, notwithstanding
his bonds went Mt the earliest possibl,
moment, and is now probably crossing
q the ocean on his way to Liverpool, il
a strong argument to advance agains
the theory of excessive ball. 1t wa
not Excessive" enough to hold Mr.. Can
non, anyhow, and Mr.. Dickson probabl,
now regrets that he did not exact the 500,
900 bonds which the missing Apostle
, attorney intimated he could furnish jus
as easily as any sum under that.

Injudicious Alluslons.

The Speartish Register Of the 18th
condemnatory of the Chicago Tribune
correspondent, Mr.. Freeman, who re-
Gently visited the Hills for the purpose
Of writing up our tin resources fer that
journal, and who by the Times is ac-
cused of discriminating against the Tin
camp of the northern Hills, has taken
the pains to widely digress from the
subject at issue, and give the public
rehash of the injudicious expressions
northern journals, whose columns were
not at that time managed with that
degree of wisdom that characterizes
those papers to-day. Reasons which
are valid and indisputable have tre-
quently been given by this paper, why
small mills cannot be successfully cper-
ated in the Southern Hills, and which
reasonably and fully account for certain
mills remaining idle, and when any
Black Hills journal takes the pains to
digress from subject which it is aiming
to discuss, for the purpose of calling
public attention to mining failures in
any portion of the Hills, she may very
consistently be pronounced guilty of
premeditated disparagement of the min
ing interests Of the whole Hills, mas
much as one section is a part of the
whole, and is unquestionably giving
circulation to expressions which very
large majority &C her readers will wisely
condemn. Tin is the topic under con-
sideration, and the Register would be
more consistent if she adhered more
closely to that subject. and leave the
small gold mills in the Southern Hills to
the care of the people of this section,
who are doubtless more interested i'm
their management, than is the scribe Of
our contemporary In the beautiful agri-
cultural village OF Spearfish.

olumns in the list Of legitimate divi-

columns in the list Of legitimate divi-
dend paying mines. Now it is peculiar
ly strange that after this mining (?j com
pany had been denounced by all her
Black Hills contemporaries, that the
journal should persist in it's defense.
A moments thought upon the subject
should have convinced that journal, as
it did the Record, that the representa-
tions made by the Big Bend company
were not in accordance with the facts,
as it might readily have concluded that
the entire press of the Hills would rot
have united in the defamation of 81 min
ing property situated within her limits,
of the rare value claimed for it by the
owners. That such policy could be
pursued by the papers Of the Hills no
one, not even the Journal, could for a
moment entertain, and it is refreshing
to notice disposition upon the part OF
that paper, in late issue, to let itself
down as gracefully as possible, and we
do not hesitate to make the prediction
that notice of the next dividend de-
clared by that non-operative bubble,
will be denied place in its valuable
columns.

The Dakota Tin Mines.

Two years ago Captain Curtis OF West
Cornwall went to Dakota a, the request
of the Messrs Boiitho, the well known
tin smeiters OF penZance, specially to
inspect the reputed tin deposits there.
returned with the report that, while
there, it was not to be found in paying
quantities. The American journal
which speaks Of the tin properties of
the Eta mine as a veritable FL Dorado,
mentions that the average product of
the tin is 55 fbs. OF Eletalic tin to the
ton. Now, what does this mean
What quantity Of stuff was this average
produced from? Tie information we
have cleaned tells US that the tin OBJ
tainable from Dakota is formed in
species Of rock known as "greiseD "a
rock composed of mica in big frkes,
quartz, etc The tin crystalized, lo'ng
in patches from the size of peas to sho,.
This tin is easily dressed, but here
comes the dificuhy--there is not en-
ough of it. They cannot here find a
lode Were they able to find lodes of
tin in that district the United States
would most certainly have the advant-
age over the mines of Cornwall. We
have it on the best possible authority
that this particular tin from Dakota can
be far more easily reduced than Cornish
tin. One hundred tons Of The American
tinstufi could be reduced and dressed as
promptly and economically rs ten tons
of Cornish tinstuH.-London Mining
Journal.
Our readers will remember that at the
time Mr.. Curtis visited this section, ne
important tin discoveries, aside from
the Eta, had been made, and even that
mine had not been sufficiently develop
cd to determine it's value. All Of our
most valuable tin discoveries have been
made since chat gentleman visited this
country. The valuable tin deposits of
the Hill City district were comparative
ly unknown. Warrens Gulch district
in which are located number Of our
most promising loGes was entirely un-
known. The Tenderfoot, Tin Centre,
and Park districts were yet undiscover-
ed, and the celebrated Tin Reef group
of mines. located one and a If miles
HOTtH vi tHlS Guy, NIlCn are Hcl SUR
passed in merit by any lodes yet dis
covered, had not yet attracted the eye
Of the prospector, and it is therefore
by no means surprising that Mr.. Curtis
should report upon his return to En-
land, that tin was not to be found in
paying quantities in this country.
Should Mr.. Curtis revisit this country, n
very different situation would be APP
parent, and in the scores of lodes which
have been discovered since he was here,
he might readily select any desired
number oftin crystals many times larger
than he speaks of having seen while
here, and determine by actual test, the
presence Of a higher percentage Of tin
in the orc, than he has ever encounter
ed in the mines of Cornwall, which
hitherto have bourne the palm of sI-
prenacy throughout the world.

The Harvey Peak Tin Company about to
Resume Active Operations.

That the recent visit of Mr.. James
Wilson, of the Harney Peak Company,
to the Black Hills would be significant
of important results We have maintained
from the first. The large sums spent by
the company in developing claims and
erecting reduction works said unmistak-
ably that the company was in earnest,
and the heavy purchases made by Mr.
Wilson while here showed that the
faith Of the company in the future Of
the tin industry in the Black Hills was
mistaken.
But properties acquired by Mr.. Will
son for the company were not purchased
outright; they were placed under bonni
and in view of this fact it has been as
serted by some that the transactions
were fictitious, and would never be
closed. We are in position to say, how.
ever that it is the fixed intention of the
company to perfect title to all the prop
ertles placed under bond, and to that
enc Mr.. ]. ". Fowler and Mr.. Whsle,
the attorney and acting manager Of the
company, respectively start to-day to
examine the several locations, the Tin
Reef, Phinney, Mcclure, and others,
and are authorized by the company to
take whatever steps are necessary to
secure the title to the property. They
expect to be absent some days, and on
their return the additional sums nee
essary to secure the bonds will be paid,
unless they report adversely on any Of
the prospects examined.
As stated few days since, Mr.. Whsle
has been placed in charge of the various
properties in the Black Hills belonging
to the Harvey Peak Company. That
company now wish the announcement
made public that Mr.. Willsie has been
made sole manager Of their mining in
tcrests in the Hills for a period Of two
years, and is now under contract with
them to that effect. Mr. Willsie is TOO
well known ao an experienced engineer
and thorough business man to need any
eulogy. This appointment will give
confidence IL the company, and prove a
popular one in evei.r way.
The property of the Harvey Peak
Company is owned by seven men, who
represent. probably, not less than one
hundred millions of capital. The idea
that any backdown is contemplated
need not be entertained for an instant.
On the contrary, work will be resumed
on the Eta at an early day, and active
operations will undoubtedly be begun
on some Of their more recently acquired
locations Republican, 18th.

The Big Bend,

The peculiar method Of operating the
Big Bend Hydraulic Mining company is
being commented upon by not only the
press Of the Hills, but the New York
Mining journals. While the press of
the Hills wi:nout excer.Ion and the
Record of New York condemn the
method employed by this company in
conducting their operations exclusively
in New York, without even disturbing a
"sun burnt pebble" on the reputed
Rapid creek bonanza, the Engineering
and Mining Journal has been disposed
TO favor it by giving II y place in It's

A few days since we noted the arrival
of j. Douglass, the celebrated mining
expert, aid his departure with John II.
King to inspect some of the tin proper
ties lying west and southwest of here.
Mr.. King returned from the Hills yes
terday, and stated to representative of
the Republican that he had in company
with Mr.. Douglass, examined twenty or
more tin locations, and that Mr.. Douglass
made on the spot assays of rock taken
from seven of them, with results show
ing from six per cent tin to nothing He
also made critical examination Of the
Bengal Tiger and some other properties
for Philadelphia capitalists He returns
from the Hills to-day, and expects to co
east by the evening train.
Mr.. Douglass expressed himself as
highly pleased with what he saw, and
gave it as his opinion that the surface
indications for tin are better than any
he has ever seen anywhere. He has as
yet made no purchases for Phelps,
Dodge q Co., the New York firm he
represents, but Intends returning at an
early day and it is not unlikely that he
may then do SO. He was in the Hills
two years ago, also for the purpose of
examining tin properties, but found so
little DEVELOPMENT work that he did not
prosecute his inquiries, but left them
for time when actual work done may
enable him to make more thorough
and satisfactory examinations n.-Republi-

A NEAT and worthy compliment
comes from an unexpected source
when Maj. Ed Warren of the Texar-
kama Independent refuses to take
the field against the democracy. His
has been one of the keenest blades,
and one OF the most vigilant eyes
set upon the democracy Of the state
to detect and pierce any misstep or
blunder in practice or policy in the
democratic state government, and
that fearless and ready opponent
comes out in an open endorsement Of
democratic administration and refus-
es the caresses of the Whelers who
wished to caiole and enlist his ready
hand In a crusade against
democratic rule In Arkansas. But
not seeing the point, or perhaps see
ing it and not liking it, Maj. Warren
in his manly and usually energetic
way proceeds to set down on it with
enough OF weight and despatch to
answer practical purposes. The lit
tie sly invitation with Major War

The following points Of interest
we take from the Gazettc's Wash
ington correspondent Of Tuesday
last:
Appropriation for the improve
ment of the Arkansas river, SIS, ZOO,
OF which sum $4,000 is to be spent
on the river front at Pine Bluff, 3d.
600 at Fort Smith, and $4,000 at
Dardanelle.
Representative Brecklnridge's bill
to restore the abandoned Indian res
eryation in Pope county to the pub
lie domain passed the house few
days ago and, if it can be reached in
time, will pass the senate also this
session. This old reservation com
prises some 300 acres, and has long
since been settled by the whites.
Present settlers are given preference
in making entry and securing title.
Senator Berry desires his Arkan-
sas friends to know that there is no
occasion to fear serious results from
his throat troubles. No physician
has ever yet pronounced it cancer.
Representative McRae's bill to
permit settlers on public lands with
in railway limits to increase, without
extra cost, their homestead entries
from so acres to the full homestead
limit of l60 acres, passed the senate
yesterday, having already passed the
house, and is, therefore, now law.
There are hundreds of persons in
Arkansas to whom the provisions Of
this bill will prove blessing. The
railway limits" are the limits of the
railway land grants-six miles on
each side Of the Iron Mountain and
the same on the Fort Smith road.
