Blame. Sherman. &c.

TIE Philadelphia Times OF yesterday
gives the results of a canvass regarding
the presidential preferences of q large
number OF representative Republicans
in the five great States OF New York,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Min
nesota. The New York Trjbunc sum-
marizes them as follows:
The canvass was based. Of course,
upon the assumption that Mr.. Blame Is
ont of the race. Yet nearly one third say
they will have him anyway, deciinatlon
or no deciuation.
Perhaps the next most striking fact Is
the strength OF Chauucey NJ. Depew in
the East. with q lack of it quite as
marked in the West and Northwest.
He is the first choicc-always with the
proyiso that Mr.. Blaine is out OF the
wsv-of 902 ont of Ll2S. tie stands
third on the list, sherman being first,
AMI with "Hlaine anyhow Il close
second. lie leads in New J orl, hotn rs
first and second choice, and is strong as
second choice both in Pennsylvania and
Ohio.
Another fact OF interest is that the
Gresham boom is nowhere beside that of
General Harrison, either in their own
State or elsewhere, except in Minnesota.
In the totals Harrison has double Gresd-
ANS vote, and IN Indiana nearly seven
times bls vote. These may be etvaws,
but they would seem 20 show that the
wind is blowing away from Judge Gresh-
am.
Senator Havlev makes a small show
ing. The only State among the tive
in which Air. Allison exhibits ans
strength is Minnesota. Mr.. Iii>coch has
nearly rs large total as MIR. Allison. but
it is to be remembered that Sew York is
included in the canvass, while Iowa Is
not. Mr.. Conalug has little less than
Eaif the strength OF Mr. NIscocA.

In the United States Supreme Count,
the BELL-telephone case was decided
yesterday by majority of the bench.
Seven justices sat in the case, and two
did not sit. Three of the seven non
concurred SO that if these three had
absented themselves there could have
been no decision, as with them the two
who refused to sit would have consti-
tuted a majority of the court What
sort of decision is that ? There viii

REGISTER.

Next Tuesday will be the last oppor-
tnnity for registering before the munic-
ipal election. If you fail to appear at
your voting precinct on that day and
have your name placed on the registry
list, you will have sinned away your
birthright as an American citizen.
The highest privilege the American
citizen enjoys is that of suffrage. And
yet it is singular how many persons are
Indifferent to it. At reasonably safe
estimate, there are 10000 voters in this
city who have neglected to comply with
the simple forms which the lawrequireS
as prerequisite to exercising the elect
i've franchise.
1t is the imperative duty of every citi-
zen who values good government to vote
at every election.
The approaching municipal elections
one that interests every citizen of st.
Paul. Surely you cannot be so blind to
your interests and so Indifferent to the
general welfare as to fail to prepare
yourself for voting at that election.
In order to vote you must first reg
lister.
Remember that next Tuesday is the
day.

MORMON SCHOOLS.

Before the senate committee on terri
tories, Rev. M. V. MONTGOMERY, of
Minneapolis, recently brought forth
some information regarding the subtle
workings of Mormonism which is not
generally known. Mr.. MONTGOMERY,
having personally investigated the sub
ieet in Utah, speaks with the weight of
authority. 1t appears from his investi-
cations that, not content with evad-
ing in every possible way the
laws passed for the suppression Of
the polygamous feature of Mormon
ism, the Mormons have turned the
public school system of the territory to
the incubation of the nefarious doe
trines.
Having the controlling voice in the
offices of the territory-for there are but
five anti-Mormons in the Utah Iegisla-
ture-they have been able to do with the
public school system, for whose main
tenanee they levy the tax, as they wish.
There are 467 public schools in the
territory, and in these there are
but two non-MOrmon teachers. This
absolute control is possible to the Nor
mons because the county superintend-
ents of the district schools are all Nor
mons, and of course employ none but
Mormon teachers. The one nom Nor
mon officer is the general superintend-
ent, appointed by the governor, but his
power is Insignificant. Not only are
the Mormons and non-Mormons, the
latter forming about one-fourth of the
population, alike taxed for the mainten-
ance of schools in which Mormon doe
trines are inculeated, but the Mormon
teachers, Mr.. MONTGOMERY asserts, are
VIGOROUSLY inefficient.
The natural result is that the nom
MormonS are compelled to support
schools of their own, and Mormon chill
dren grow up in state of comparative
ignorance which admirably fits them
for the ready adoption of the hideous
tenets of Mormonism. The different
religious denominations, both Protest
ant and Catholic, have in some
degree offset this feature of
Mormon control by establishing schools
of high grade which are educational
rather than UNCONVENTIONAL, and which
extend their advantages to Mormons
and non Mormons alike. 1t is mani
festly unjust to the different religious
denominations, however, that congress
should permit them to carry on work
which must necessarily cripple their
beneficent missionary efforts, at their
own expense, which is necessary
through congressional negligence.
Congress is responsible for the admin
istration of affairs in Utah, and should
see to it that the public school funds
are devoted to the maintenance of
schools which should be in effect pub
lie, and not mere vehicles for the con-
yeyance of Mormon doctrine. 1t can
