ZANE vs.. ANDERSON.
JUDGE ANDERSON.

Upon the strength of
this manifesto / am ad-
vised that the courts IN
the First and Third dis
tricts OF this territory
have, since it was is
sued, admitted mem
bers Of the Mormon
church TO citizenship.
l regret very much that
upon a careful study of
this manifesto l cannot
agree with this holding
of those courts. L am
unable to see that ii re
moves the grounds of
the objection which for
the past year have been
deemed sufficient TO eK-
clude alien members of
this church from citi
zenship. The manifesto
only advises the mem
bers not to contract in
the future any mar
'riages forbidden by the
law of the land. 1t
does not even advise
those members who are
now living in polygamy
to stop their polyga
nous practices and live
within the law. 1t an
nounces no change in
the doctrine or belief Of
the church as to the
rightfulness of polyga-
my, nor does it advise
or Urder the discontinu-
ance of the disloyal
oaths administered in
the endowment house.
Z = = ? The so-called
manifesto is very art
fully worded. TIL e
members are advised
ITO refrain from con-
tracing any marriages
forbidden by the law OF
the land. The only
law OF the land for.
bid d ing polygamous
marriages in this terri
tory is in the acts OF
Congress. If L t a b
should become a state.
these acts of Congress
would no longer be in
: force here, and polyga'
moua marriage would
not be contrary to The
law of the land, as fal
as Utah is concerned
: unless the Latter-day
. Saints should pass sucf
a law. which their pas

would not likely do

JUDGE ZANE.

That this last ques-
ton may not be misun-
derstood, Twill say that
in naturalizations j am
now disposed to take
judicial notice of the
statement made by the
president of the Church
Of Jesus Christ of Lat
ter-day Saints in his
manifesto of the Path of
S eptember last. that he
would in the future
obey the law OF the
land prohibit ng polyg-
amy, and lis advice
therein to the members
Of the church of which
he is the head likewise
to observe that law !:
and also OF the lie Solu-
ton of the general con-
ference of the same de-
nomination. in which it
is declared that such
advice by its president
was by authority and is
binding upon its believ-
ers, and that such pres
ident is the only earthly
ms tru N en- { a lit y
through which that ad.
vice can authorftatively
come to them. This al.
legged revelation / re
gard as an authoritative
ex pre- Ssion of the
Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints
against the practice OF
polygamy. If this &C
ton is in goodfaith, the
officers and members OF
the Mormon church
hereafter must regard
plural or polygamous
marriages as violations
of the creed and doc
trines OF their church
and in these naturali
cations / shall hereaf
ter act upon this con
clusion unless some
thing further occurs u
sufficiently change my
mind. BY their work!
hereafter / shall en-
deavor to understand
their motive and pur
pose OF the manifesto
and resolution referred
TO. My confidence il
human nature, anC
charity TO my fellow
men, lead me to accep'
such a solemn declare
ton, and the expression
of such a good purpose
as being honest ant
sincere. Hereafter
viii not make the sin
pie fact that an applt
cant is a member of III
Mormon church a ba
TO his admission.

COUNTY OFFICERS.

We do not profess to he a lawyer
o "the son OF a lawyer" hence it
would be presumption ON our part to
attempt TO expound the law and in
terpret the Constitution, but il the
Legislature possesses such omnipo-
tent power over III county Offices
and officers, we would like for our
wise correspondent, "X. Y. IT," to ex-
plain how it is that an act OF the
Legislature extending the tenure OF
Office OF Assess rs then in Office to four
years was decidei unconstitutional
by the Supreme Court OF Nevada.
Our correspondent says:
Were the Legislature in session to-
day, it could at once legislate every
n OF u county Offices out OF ex-
istence and the incumbents out Of
office.
With all Difference to his legal lore
we do not believe the above assertion
can be sustained, for, in that case, the
Legislature would be clothed with
the power to annul entirely all county
government and leave the people in n
chaos, SO far as local organization is
concerned, virtually abolishing the
county. This proposition is certainly
~untenable, not being ever good com
mon sense, to say nothing OF law.
AS to the assertion that "a library
limited TO books that are donated can
hardly DO n safe constitutional guide"
We are inclined to think that such n
library ID fully as reliable ms one linn
tied to books borrowed; hence there
Is no point to the last paragraph OF
yesterdays communication.

Ordinarily that position would be

OFFICIAL BONDS

There Il considerable controversy
among the people generally IS TO the
propriety OF requiring oouaty officers
20 give bonds for tho faithful perform
anoeo OF their duties while in Office. 1t
is claimed, and With apparent good
reason, that as the COUNTY funds are
paid by the people and thus virtually
belong 10 the people who pay the
taxes, and the failure OF an officer TO
faithfully perform his duties would
affect the many instead OF a few,
there is no justice in requiring a few
men to assume the responsibility Of
guaranteeing that an officer elected
by the people shall be honest and
competent in the discharge OF his
official duties. Again: County officers
are given their positions by the suf-
frages Of the people and are the poo
pies servants; and there seems to be
as much reason why a private citizen
or a firm should require bonds OF his
or their employees as that the people
should require bonds Of the men
whom they employ for the transac-
tion OF the public business.
In the event that q law should be
passed exempting county officers from
giving bonds, it is claimed that the
people would be NOR. careful in the
selection OF men to fill the various
positions, and the consequence would
DO n better class OF men for public
positions and a consequent more
efficient service. 1t is the duty OF the
people TO put none but the best men
in Office, but on account OF tho law
requiring u good and sufficient bond
to be filed, the character of the man
is sometimes overlooked from tho fact
that his bondsmen are responsible
for any dereliction OF duty; and yet
it not infrequently happens that in
cases OF de'alcation by an officer n
act Of the Legislature is
passed releasing the bondsmen from
all liability in the matter, thus leav-
ing it in the same position as though
no bond had been required.

hood or her motherhood, her graces or
her sensibilities, when she becomes a
voter. But suffrage will increase
