Remember that not one life of those

which preserved the life of this Nation.

PERNIcIoUs THEORIES.

The history of national legislation
demonstrates the manifest reluctance
of Congress to legislate in purely local
affairs. The fact that Congress has
diSapproved of much of the legislation
of Utah, and from time to time has
gone further and dealt directly with
the purely local affairs of the Terri
tory, and that more extended legisla-
ton is now pending before that body,
lmpels me to ask your serious atten-
ton to the fact, and your considera
ton of the reasons. In my opinion the
controlling element in Utah has fallen
into and has persisted in 4 groove of
mistaken thought. Subjects held by
them as of vital Importance are mere
shadows. Principles instilled into the
people are to be unlearned by them.
The prime fact that their highest allie
glance is due to the government has
been and continues to be held as Sec
ondary to other considerations, and
that rights and duties have by many
been honestly confoundcd with fran
chiseS and principles as laid down in
the Constitution. So prevalent has
become this line of thought that very
many whose purposes in life are hon
est, and who believe themselves to be
faithful citizens, are jealous in with
standing by argument and action and
in cases have cOnspired to defeat the
plalneSt provisions of National law.

UNLAMFUL GoVERNMENT.


l recommend the appeal of all laws
and parts of laws, inconsistent with
section seven az of the act of Con-
| Utah. All Territorial officers created
by Territorial statutes are holding on
by virtue of unauthorized and unlaW-
full elections, some of them held years
ago, and contrary to the law of Con-
greSs, an adjudication of the Supreme
Court of the Territory, the decision of
the Utah Commission, and the late de-
cision of Hon. A. H. Garland, Attorney
General of the United States, which is
as follows:
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE,
Washington, d. c.. June ), 1885.
Z SIR.-At the instance of the Utah Com
mission, the honorable (H. !. Muldrow,
Acting) Secretary of the Interior. in a let
ter dated the I'D ultimO, requested my Opin-
ION upon the following questions:
Whether certain Territorial officers in
tab, namely, superintendent OF district
schools. auditor OF public accounts, trea-
Surer. and commissioners to locate univer-
SHY lands, should be appointed by the gov
ernOr, with the assent of the Legislative
Council or chosen by the people at their
general election.
For convenience. so much of the question
considered separately,as the appointment or
election of those officers appears to be con
trolled by a provision not applicable to the
other. Upon examination OF statutes en-
acted by the Territorial Legislature, il APP
pears that the superintendent. auditor and
treasurer are thereby required TO be elected
biennially at the general election by the
qualified voters. of the Territory. (See
Compiled Laws8f Utah, 1876, page 227; act
of February p, 1873, chapter II, Laws OF
the Twenty third session, page 20.
The organic laws however see section !,
Of the act of Congress of September9, 1850
chapter 81, declares that 1.-THE governor
SHAH nominate, and by and with the advice
and Consent of the legislative council, ap-
point all officers not herein otherwise pro
yided for And as the three Territorial
0flicers last mentioned are not herein
Otherwise provided for direct conflict
manifestly exists between the statutesyot
the Territorial legislature above referred to
and the organic law.
The organic law Of Territory takes the
place of aconstitutiOn as fundamental law
of the local government. 1t is obligatory on
and binds the Territorial authorities. (Na-
aonal Bank ys.COuntv OF Yankton ,l01 United

lature inconsistent Herewith must be held

plain and unmistakable duty to sup
plement and aid in carrying into sue

by Congress which has been deter

strength in crying out against the Gov
eminent and its laws and the courts,

cord
We should see that the Territorial
government is organized in all of its
parts in conformity with the laws OF
Congress; that the system OF plural
wives or polygamy is denounced by
Territorial statute, and that the mari
tai and property rights of women are
made secure and ample; that the ex-
ercise of political power by ecclesiasti-
cal authority, which Is not tolerated in
the slightest degree elsewhere, should
be abolished in Utah.

THERE is a growing impression in
Baltimore that the Pratt street
wharves, now devoted to melons and
vegetables in the summer time, and
oysters during the winter, must give
way for more important traffic. Here
is an opening for our Short Line
Railroad for large aud profitable bu
siness. 1t runs through great mel
on, vegetable and fruit belt of coun.
try, aud when connected with the
proposed Eastern Shore railroad will
cover the most productive portions OF
the state cultivated in vegetables and
fruits aud also reach the best oyster
fields. The establishment OF a CON-
modious exchange at its Baltimore
terminal. would relieve the Pratt
street wbarves and give the company
almost a monopoly in this class Of
trade.
