THE MORMONS.
Synopsis of the Annual Report
of the Governor of Utah.
Recommending an Investigation
by a Committee of Congress.

Caleb W. West, Governor OF Utah, in his
annual report to the President, estimates the
population of the Territory at 10000, an
increase Of 66, 900 since 1880. The assessed
taxable valuation is stated to be
$40, 319, 073, an increase of about $ll .OOO dur
ing the year. The aggregate mineral pro-
ducts Of the Territory for the calendar year
1887 is given as g. 637. 72S. OF which
S5,916, So silver. Labor has been
in demand during the year. Carpen-
tiers receive $50 per day, and are
in strong demand. StOnecutters, masons,
and bricklayers from 81 TO $3.50 per day,
also in demand Miners from So 80 TO 81
per day. Nearly all the other trades are
well paid and fully employed. In his re-
marks upon the Mormon question the Gov
ernor says:
Nothing can justify the despotism Of the
Mormon polit ical system to a people who
have known and appreciate the blessings OF
a free Government. the Unity OF the
Church and State is perfect and indissoluble.
1t is based upon the complete and abso-
lutte control of priesthood welding a
supreme power, exercised and yielded
to as emanating Immediately from
God, in all things secular well as spiritual
The word of the priesthood is to the Mormon
people the command OF G. od not only in mat
tiers of faith and morals, but in all civil, po-
litical, and commercial affairs. This priest
hood not only'rules the Church, but governs
the State.
The Governor declares that the local civil
Government under the Mormons is arbitrary.
The Governor recommends the appointments
by Congress of committee with full au-
thority TO make complete and thorough in
conditions heretofore and now prevailing in

1t is no use aking me for the secrets

them, but they are dangerous, and as
moderation in the use of any cosmetic is
unknown TO women who adopt such
things they had better remain secret.
The only harmless things for the pur-
pose are the juice of the herb euphrasy
or eyebright dropped in the eye, or
spoonful of roast coffee chewed for the
juice alone. This brightens the eyes for
an evening, and is useful to keep watch
ers wide awake nights. But it must not
be used often or it affects the heart.
Walking a mile brlskly against the wind
is good exercise to darken and brighten
the eyes.

WHAT MORE DO You WANT -,

The Philadelphia Press, which must have
a failing memory or thinks its readers have
lost theirs, namely remarks:
The declaration of Henry George that
President Cleveland is the foremost oil
American Free-traders and that he, there
fore, deserves the earnest support of all en-
emies Of the Protective principle, il yigOr-
Ously denied by the half-and- half organs OF
the Democracy, but IL remains uncontra-
dicted by the one man who, if he testified,
would confirm it beyond dispute. That
man is Grover Cleveland.
Indeed If our memory is not as bad as
the Press We believe that man" has made
a few remarks on this subject. We believe
they run something like this:
The question Of free trade is absolutely
irrelevant, and the persistent claim made
in certain quarters that all efforts to re-
lieve the people from unjust and unneces-
sary taxation are schemes of so called free
traders is miscellaneous. and far removed
from any consideration for the public
good. The simple and plain duty that we
owe the people is TO reduce taxation 10 the
necessary expenses Of an economical opera
ton of the government, and to restore to
the business of the country the money
which We hold in the treasury through
ths peTversiOn Of governmental powers
These things can and should be done, with
safety to all our industries, without
danger to the opportunity for remunsr-
atiye labor which our woTkingmen need,
and with benefit TO them and all our
people, by cheapening their means of sub
sistanee and increasing the measure of
their comforts.

REDUCE THE TAXES
Built In Low Tariff Times.
IVashfaokon SLar.

On the 23d Of April, 1888, two steam
ships, the Sirius and the Great Western,
entered New York harbor within 8 few
hours Of each other, and began series OF
regular periodical transatlantic voyages in
competition. Both Of these ships were Of
British build and ownership. To America
belongs the honor Of what was really the
first experiment, made by the Savannah In
1919 A Georgia corporation set her afioat,
aud the man who suggested the daring en-
terprise acted as her captain. She had
paddle wheels 80 arranged as to fold up
like fan when not in use, and several
other features which would be considered
oddities nowadays, and the novelty OF so
large yessel-350 tons-with an active
smokestaek created sensation in British
waters, where one revenue cutter chased
her whole day under the mistaken I'M
preston that she was on fire. Her voyage
lasted about three weeks. How puny this
beginning seems by comparison with what
has come since, when ships Of 10000 tons
burden made crossing in less than seven
days! And yet the greatest wonder in
steamships in 1919 was built and manned
aud nayigated by Americans, while in 1888
we wait upon England for our novelties in
that line.

On the side of the consumer the burdens
Of the tariff are obvious. There is first
the enhanced price of such foreign wool as
must be imported. The duties on this
material amounted last year to S., 500,
$40 So. There is next the tax paid on
foreign wool manufactures, almost all OF
which, in q healthy condition of the in
dustry, would be produced in this country
The duties on wooden goods imported last
year amounted to $50, 720, III so, and the
duties on all imports of wool, raw and
manufactured, to $35, 629. 534 ID, or nearly
60 per cent The taxes alone on this class
of commodities amounted to about as
much IA the total value of the entire wool
clip of the United States. See now how
an ipgeniusly maleieent tariff may con-
trive to iDjure at once the producer and
consumer?

quite understand. The following is q
sample extract from n column article, that
blazes with indignation against the South

Suppose the result of the Presidential
election would turn this year on the eight
votes of Mississippi, and the vote of either
of those States TO be determined as il was
on the 18th of April in Louisiana by
fraud (by such instructions as Governor
McEnery issusd), who viii say that the
North would or should quietly submit TO

Iicsn States of the North not vote at all.
Ia effect, the vote Of Ohio, PennsylvaniA
and all the other Republican States is
completely nulh6ed. Voting Mt all in
those States is a mere farce. 1t counts for
nothing whatever. As well let the Presi-
