The Law Of TreSSpaSsing As this is
the season Of the year when every youth who
can beg or borrow an old gun, is rowing the
country in pursuit Of squirrels and other
game, it is well that he make note Of the law
Of tresspass. Some persons think that the
signboaras forbidding bunting or tressprssiug
upon private lands are Of little account, aud
that they may he diregarded with impunity
This is a mistake, as the law makes it an act
Of Iresspass to 60 upon cultivated or enclosed

the owner is entitled to recover actual dam

BECOMING EXERCISED.

y SPECIAL TO the NEWS states that
I Associate Justice Anderson delIv-
cred his charge to the grand jury at
Beaver yesterday. He informed
that body that bigamy, polygamy,
adultery and fornication are COM
mon crimes in this Territory and
that many Of the people are guilty
Of them.
This reminds us Of what took place
a flew days ago before the sameJudge,
when he was officiating in the
Third District Court in this city.
When members Of the Mormon"
Church appeared as applicants for
naturalization they were questioned
by the whips OF the "Liberal" party
as to whether they believed in the
principle Of plural marriage, and
whether they had committed any Of
the O1enses defined in the Edmunds-
Tucker Act.
As an offset attorneys for the
Mormon" applicants asked 'Liber-
al'' aliens who appeared i'm court
for the same purpose whether they
had been guilty OF adultery or forni-
cation Whereat one Of the active
whips Of that party treated the mat
ter disdainfully, stating that 800 out
of every 1000 males who had arrived
at maturity had been in that busi-
ness. OF course he meant the males
Of the hOn-"Mormon" section. One
Of the witnesses for an applicant !
made a similar declaration.
Judge Anderson came TO the re- I
lief Of that portion Of the "Liber- I
al' 500 who might appear for adj |
TO citizenship. He ruled |
substantially that a few breaches Of 4
sexual morality were neither here
nor there as affecting a mans moral
'tatus. Unless he habitually ell
saged in such practices, be could not
'e designated as a man of had moral
character and there would lie no
,arrier on that ground to his al
mission to citizenship.
Can it be that Judge Anderson |
'egins to think that sexual offenses,
when committed by the liberal
defined by Mr.. Lippman,
ire really serious, or has he refer
.nce TO another section Of the COM
nunity? In these times conse-
Iuences appear to depend good deal
lpon "whc is who" "The times, -
n judicial sense, seem to be sadly
out Of joint
