bench. It has given notice to the world
that in Idaho we offer no excuse for the
hpnious and hileous crime Of bisamy
and polysamy. That We regard, as in
famous, the practice Of plural marriages
AS also, ii possible. the still grosser Of

with a woman not his lawful wife. Let
the spirit OF reason and moral justice
place IN oblivious Condemnation, poll
cally, socially, and relisiously the ignoble
aud base character Of such persons who,
wartonIy, trample upon one Of the most
sacred commands Of God and most
followed law of man. Social chastity is
the only solid and lasting foundation
upon whi.h to erect and maintain the
superstructure Of universal, worldly
prosperity aud earthly happiness. Cor
rup,ion in social lifc is like the fostering
saugrene which gradually, though surely,
consumes all healthy vitality and at last

A NEW CENCTCRY.

There is some talk in our city of pre-
vidins ii new burial place for our dead
and muv;ng those on the. hill further
from the busy hum OF our thriving town.
As a matter Of taste such an enterprise
has merit. but as matter Of necessity, |,
1t does not seem that the noise and
hustle of our town, would, in any way.
Interfere with the .leep Of our friends on
the hill. As matter OF speculation, too,
this move has attractions. II the ground
now OCCUPIED as IA cemetery could be sold
to the hi .hest bidder for the benefit of
pur city, it might give US funds with
which to buy the ferries. OF course,
those who are movin. in this matter are
looking to the welfare of the living as
well as the peace of the dead. Free
ferries would be a great Improvement to
oar city and a great hel p to all our pet.
pie. As matter of providing homes
Tor our poor people, this enterprise has
also much to commend it. Ii the ground
could be properly plated iu.o good lots
and sold to the people, on reasonable
terms. those of our citizens who have not
been fortunate enough to get large tracts
on the hill would be enabled to provide
themselves with comfortable homes. OF
| course, this would Mt BE- done if the land
should, by any process, get into the
h.uds of spectators. This enterprise,
too, should be So managed as to prepare
our town for Larger growth. 1t is of
no USE to change the present site Of our
cemetery for another near the city. A
remove but half mile or possibly a
mile, would be of no benefit unless t.
spectators. A cemetery to be attrac.
tive should be on uneven ground, and,
if possible, on the banks of a stream
A water view adds greatly to the attrac.
tons Of any landscape aud to any GENE
terry. IT ours is moved it ought to be &c
the banks of the Snake river, where
water can be had for irrisating purposes
The broken surface of the landscape
above the place Of Mr.. Cox could b.
made very pleasant with little watel
aud some taste in using it. Don't b.
afraid Of the distance. We ought no
70 forget that Lewiston will be large
!, and thriving city before many years
Those interested in this matter shoull

past.

suspicion is directed against him in any
way. As friend expressed on the streets
