A QUESTION OF POPULATIOM

-
Governor Moonlight seems disposed to
impress upon the world his desire to be
absolutely correct under all circumstances.
As will be noticed by our teleGraphic col.
umns he has gone 10 the extent of send
ing a supplemental report to the secretary
of the interior to correct any misappre-
hension that he had helped to create in
the public mind regarding the present
population of Wyoming. In his general
report for 1888 to this same august official
the governor says on the subject of popu-
lation: There is nothing reliable to be
said under this heading, as there has been
no census since 1880. / am inclined to
the belief that my estimate of last year.,
$1,000, is still near the mark. as many
have been going and coming. The gains
are principally among the farming and
actual land seeking and settling popula-
ton; while the losses are confined to the
cowboys on the ranches, with some changes
in the cities"
For fear that by any possible chance
people abroad might acquire the errone
Gus impression that Wyoming is credited
with more population than it is entitled
to, our governor indites a formal commu-
~nicatiln to the secretary of the interior
giving it as his opinion (hut still based IN
estimates) that the territory actually has a
population OF not over $1,000 inhabi-
tapts.
Now, might not the governor have en-
ployed himself to better advantage. in
some other way? When have estimated
populations ever been within the mark2
Cities with $4,000 inhabitants always
claim SO, and no one thinks any the
worse OF them i0r it. This matter of pop
ulation has been the subject of some little
discussion at home, where it was regarded
somewhat in the light of a family matter.
Now, without any reasonable justification,
the matter is brought with conspicuous
prominence before the whole country, aud
the low. but perhaps fair estimate Of our
population, is placed side by side with the
llSu auu ulupolSal tshihlatSo Vi Ahc Obhoi
territories.
The effect of such a publication may
decidedly retard immigration to the terri
tory. With every territory rapidly fill
ing up, the intelligent immigrant cannot
help pausing to inquire why Wyoming's
population fails to increase in equal ratio.
No greater injustice could possibly be
done the territory than to create an in
quiry of this sort, for no field in the
broad west offers better facilities for the
preserving immigrant than does WYom-
ing. That we are so little know was due
for many years to our own people, whose
apparent interest it was to keep these
broad plains virgin to the cattle business.
As to its effect on statehood that is a
matter of lesser moment. We have seen
no good reason to change the views which
VIC entertained on this subject during the
whole campaign. Statehood must inev-
itably come and it will come sooner than
many people anticipate. Meanwhile there
can be no objection to a thorough discus.
sion Of the matter.
But, Just the same, we cannot help
feeling and saying that Governor Moon
light might have been better employed
than in writing his supplemental report to
Secretary Villas.

The following is what the Cincinnati
Trade List thinks OF those characters
who are all the time complaining of
their county papers and instead Of help
ing to support them, send on for large
city paper. and thus help to sustain
them:
"A gentleman writes to us that his
county paper is so poor that he has
stopped 1t therefore sends MS % for the
Trade List. We repeat that we do not
want subscribers on these terms. A
mans county paper is worth the world,
If it is not, it is his fault. II the county
paper is properly encouraged. 1t may be
relied upon for information OF more
value to the people in whose interest it
is issued than can be found in all the
city papers Of the United States. No
man can afford to be without the paper
that publishes the official advertise>
ments Of his county, the public sales,
court news and other intelligence. II
the paper is poor the people are more
ct fault than the publisher for not Civ
ing IL liberal patronage. However
poor the county paper may BE-, it is all
ways worth more than it costs TO those

WHY is it that the Republicans
have waited until the very last hour
to name their candidate for Council
man in the Second Ward? They
meet tonight to select their man.
The election will take place
to morrow. Is there conspiracy to
put up another contractor and
try to run him in without giving the
people chance to discuss his merits
or demerits. 1t would appear as if
some job aimed against the city were
in the air, else they would at least
have given the people two days,
or one day, instead of few hours, to
canvass the qualifications of their
nominee. We do not believe they
will accomplish their design in thus
taking snap judgment of the people.
The voters whose interests are at stake
will not be dragooned by party man.
ipulators into accepting whatever can
didate they may be pleased to put
forwa ard in so indecent a manner.

THE nc mination of Mr.. John Mo-
riarty by the Democratic Convention
for Councilman of the Second Ward is
one eminently fit to be made. Mr..
Moriarty is substantial citizen and q
man OF the most unimpeachable in
tsgrity. He possesses the best
qualifications for Councilman: he is
thoroughly familiar with our city 4;
has keen appreciation of it's public
wants; is alive to the march Of pro-
gress and in favor of keeping pace
in public improvements with the line
u that march. All who know Mr..
'1[oriarty will vouch for his staunch
honesty, his intelligent grasp of
public questions and his loyalty
to the highest principles OF good citi-
zenship. The Democratic majority in
the Second Ward is sufficiently large
70 ensure his election under any and
III circumstances, and we congratulate
the party on having put up man for
the sufffages Of the people who is in
every way so worthy Of their conf
dence and their votes.

rRlDAY, FEBRUAnY.l7, 1888.

THERE was some wild talk on the
street esterday about the action of
the Democratic meeting on Wednes-
day night in nominating Mr.. Moriarity
instead of Mr.. Ling. Two ballots were
taken without either Of three candi-
dates receiving a majority of the whole
vote cast. In each of these ballots Mr..
Ling polled the highest vote. No ex-
ception was taken to the majority
rule after the first ballot was de-
clared. But Mr.. Ling's friends set
mp claim that, because he had a
plurality Of the votes on the second
ballot, as he also had on the first, he
had received the nomination. This
seems to be an afterthought. The
chair made no announcement Of Sc
lecti on, and third ballot was taken
when Mr.. Morialty received ma
jority of all the votes cast, and
was declared the nominee. Mr.. Ling
and his friends claim that, believing
he had been elected on the second
ballot, they left the room. If they did
they lost their right to complain.
No nomination had been made or de-
clare d; but on the contrary, acting
in consonance with the course pur-
sued in the first ballot. the chairman
order ed another ballot to be taken
when he found that no candidate had
. majority of all the votes
cast in the second ballot. This
was right. Without any special
agreement by the meeting, the
m ajority rule would prevail.
That rule was carried out on
the first ballot, and was properly fol-
lowed on the second. The result of
sticking to the rule to the end was the
n0mi nation Of Mr.. Moriarty, who is
therefore the regular Democratic nom-
inee for Councilman of the Second
Ward.

REPUBLICAN statesmen who hay,

REPUBLICAN, statesmen who have
been credited with having the Presi-
dental bee in their bonnet seem
somewhat inclined to follow the ex-
ample of Mr.. Blaine. Among men
to whose reputation defeat would not
add luster the development of indif-
ference is rather alarming. When
the Blaine letter was first published
Senator Sherman's hopes rose to a
jubilant pitch. He was in the ring to
get the nomination if he could. So he
said. The withdrawal of the man
from Maine did not appear to affect
the man from Ohio in very melan-
choly manner. A few days for re-

In louisiana, the other day, the
Republican State Convention met to
nominate State ticket. It is stated
on the most indisput able authority
that 80 per cent OF the delegates were
negroes, yet only one office, and that
a paltry one, went to citizen of the
African race. Who suppressed the
colored vote in that assembly? Was
there a "Ku-Klux Club" "white
league" a Shotgun BRIGADE" or
other like organization for the pre-
vention of a "free vote and fair
count" by which such a result could
be reached?
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-02-17

consideration Of the situation have
enabled Mr.. Sherman to get new
conception of Mr.. Blaine's reasons
for Withdrawing. There were loo
many explanations made to account
for that step. The latest about Mrs.
Blaine's hand in the affair is the
fimsiest. Any way, all the explana-
tions cannot be correct, and the un.
certainty as to which is, naturally sug.
gests the thought that none OF them
are. Is the true reason held back,
and is it disinclination to brave de-
feat second time? Mr.. Sherman's
newly developed indifference seems
to suggest that such an uncomfortable
possibility may have reached his
mind.

Two Of the medical experts ap-
poi nted informally to report upon An
sch lag's sanity, made the remarka-
BILE declaration that presumption of
the insanity Of the prisoner would be
the atrocious character Of the crime
he had committed. It is to
be hoped that no such doc
trine will find it's way permanently
into our medical jurisprudence as ac-
cepted by the courts. The immunity
Of criminals from responsibility, under
such a doctrine, would be proportion.
ate with the eAormity Of their crimes.
Such rule would invite murderers
to invest their acts with the
most revolving features they were
capable of devising, being assured
that the more inhuman, unnatural
and atrocious they were, the greater
would be their chance of escaping
punishment on the plea of insanity.
Madmen often commit great crimes.
But there is always an absence oi
reasonable motive in them, and
this fact, coupled with their atrocious
character, is evidence Of the insanity
of the perpetrators. In this case,
however, the double murder and all
I. its atrocious features, are trace
able to reasoning purpose.
Anschlag's cupidity suggested the
murders, his british instincts
led him to dispatch the
Hftchcocks in the diabolical way he
did, and he buried them in the grave,
believing they would never be found.
Like all criminals, he reasoned
shallowly; but nevertheless every
step he took in the horrible tragedy,
from first to last, was the result oi
reasoning upon the horrid work his
rapacity had urged him to engage in.

A LARGER acreage of land is being put under cultivation on the Santa Cruz bot tom this year than ever before, and pre- psrst!ons for the cultivation of still larger area are continually being msde.

There has however been bu, httle done ID the way of planting orchards and vinysrds, the nearest approach in tLis direction being the old tune pomegrsn- ste and quince. planted perhaps two hundred years ago as evidenced by their gnsrled and knotted trunks.
