I" TEMPERED WITH MERCY. :"

The Neus does not believe "that the
Edmunds law requires the severity with
which it has been administered in every
case" OF course not! Nobody ever
supposed, for one moment, that the News
would be able to reconcile the action of
the courts in carrying out the Edmunds
law with any notions of right or Justice
which it may have conceived. The News'
idea is that, in the first place, polyga-
mlsts ought not to be punished
at all; rather that they should
be rewarded with positions of
honor and trust in the community.
and be looked up to as men who have
sort of divine right to rule over the poor.
uninspired monogamists.
Up to the present time, the courts have
dealt as leniently with offenders of this
class as they consistently could. But it
is every day becoming more and more
apparent that the leniency of the courts
is not properly appreciated by those to
whom it is extended.
Ii the courts have been at fault at all
IN this matter, the class of offenders al
luded to have had the benefit OF that
ault. In the future, if less leniency than
heretofore shall be shown to convicted
'oiygamists, the parties will have only
to blame.

MIR. CANNoN's CASE.

The Neacs thinks that the United States
Marshal for Utah was guilty OF very
uncalled-for proceeding when he made
public the announcement that he would
pay a reward of $500 to any person who
would furnish information that would
lead to the arrest of president" George
Q. Cannon. We cannot agree with the
NeaUs. 1t is doubtless very annoying to
Mr.. Cannon to have "a price set upon his
head" but do not the circumstances of
the case warrant it? We think SO.
There may be instances, even in this
free country, where men innocent of
crime have been hunted down by the
officers of the law and made to suffer un-
merited punishment. But such instances
are rare indeed. Does the Ne,us claim
that President" Cannon is innocent of
the charge or charges preferred against
him by the Federal Grand Jury of this
district? If so, why does it not urge him
to come forth from his hiding place and
face mis- accusers, as an innocent man
should and would? Why? Because
the Ne,Cs knows very well that
he is not unjustly accused, and
that if he had his deserts, he would to-
day be mingling with the herd of conyicts
behind the bars of the Utah penitenti-
ary. Then. being wanted" for viola
ton of the laws, why should not re-
ward be offered for his capture, if all
other means resorted to for his arrest
have proved futile?
The NeWS says that President" Can
non is charged with "a simple misde-
meanor," and the authorities are
anxious to punish him because of
the influence his public teachings has
upon the minds of his hearers" The
NeWs, it seems to us, makes out splen-
did case in favor of the court officers. |
Here is a man charged with the COM
mission of criminal acts; he is man
who not only breaks the law himself, but
teaches others to do the same thing, tell
ing them that it is God Almighty's will
that they should do it. They follow out
his instructions and fall within the grasp
OF the offended law. But where
is the man who is largely re-
sponsible for their troubles? Echo
answers. Like veritable coward.
he sinks out of sight, and while his vic
Tins are being sent to the penitentiary at
The rate of three day, this arch-scoun-
irel remains at large and can nowhere ,
be found. Isn't it desirable that such ,
man should be arrested? Do not the
interests of society demand that he !,
should, If possible, be arraigned at the
BAR of justice? We think SO. 1t is to be !,
hoped that the reward will shortly be
claimed by some one who has earned if.

NEEDS ATTENTION.

The newspapers of the East have beer
poking considerable fun at General De.
ment and his mares nest, and the con.
clusion which they have arrived at is
that the gentleman might as well pack
his collar-box and set his face toward his
Illinois home, giving up all hopes of con-
firmation at the hands of the Senate.
Doubtless they are correct. But in the
meantime the duties of the office are
being neglected, and work that weeks
ago should have.passed through the Sur
veyor- Generals hands, is held back be-
cause the necessary signatures cannot
be procured. This is all wrong.
The office should not be allowed to re-
main practically closed because of the
fool antics OF Dement,, and under the cir
cumstances the Senate should dispose of
his case Gf the President does not make
action on their part unnecessary by with
drawing his appointment) at the earliest
possible moment.
In the light of all that has been said
and done by General Dement,, we are
inclined to think that few tears would be
shed by citizens here if the gentleman's
appointment should be Withdrawn. but it
is absolutely necessary that the opera
tions of the Office should be continued.
and If the matter is properly laid before
the authorities at Washington, there
would doubtless be some steps taken to
remedy the trouble. Let it be attended
to without further delay.
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-02-12

equivalent to tax of So per capita ON
those taxpayers, and by the time all the
officers were appointed that would be
necessary to investigate the accounts Of
thirty-nine States and ten Territories,
affected by the bill, it would be found
that the tax per capita would be $40 in
stead of So. If the United States Sena-
tors were men who plowed the fields, or
worked as smiths and paid the taxes out
of the sweat of their brows, Mr.. Morgan
could have more respect for them when
voting away the money of one man to
educate the children OF another. Then
the constitional ground for the BILL Mr..
Morgan continued, was said to be found
in the general welfare clause of the pre-
amble to the constitution. Such an ap-
plication of that clause simply meant
that you could put down a man that got
up by his own eXertions in order to put
up drunken loafer that would not exert
himself. Mr.. Morgan characterized Mr..
Blair's idea as one involving the right of
Congress to educate children of several
States without the consent of the States.
Mr.. Blair interposed to say that he re-
garded the primary duty of education to
rest on the parents; but inasmuch as
education was Indispensable to the exist
ence OF free government, if the parents,
whether from inability or disinclination
failed in the performance of their duty,
that duty fell to the States and on our
Republic, if the State proper and
parent both fail to educate the child,
since the child would be citizen not
only of the State but of the United States.
This, however, was power that should
be exercised only in the last resort.
After some further discussion, Mr..
Morgan yielded for an Executive session,
after which the Senate adjourned until
