A PI0US POLITICIAN.

1t seems that our clerical friend. the
Rev. ILIFF, who is away on one of his
pious begging expeditions, is Ewing va
riety to his pleas for cash by interspersing
good deal of Liberal politics in his ser
mons or lectures or whatever he may call
his talks in the churches. Last week he
was canvassing in Denver for money. and
in the reports of his address we find MANY
peculiar expressions to come from the
mouth of minister of the gospel in a
Christian pulpit. Speaking of the Liberal
victory in Ogden last February, he asked:
''Do you wonder when we saw the riffs in
the clouds that we cried, The Lord God
omnipotent reigneth-even in Utah, ,,
The pious gentleman did not tell
his audience that soon after that
election which had brought forth
the glad shouts the United States marsha |
had to step in over the officials who were
reigning as the Lord God onipotent.u
and enforce the law against gambling and
prostitution; nor did he mention the
other fact that the Christian and decent
people, many of them members of Mr..
LIFTS own church, signed paper endors-
ing the course of the federal marshal. an
plauding him for trying to purify the moral
atmosphere Of the town that they might
continue to occupy their homes and
be members of the community He did
tell of one instant effect of this
election. People, brains and money poured
in" and then he forgot to say that the
taxes were Increased from two hundred to
five hundred per cent, and many poor PEG
pie were and are greatly distressed
thereby. Nor did he say that at the suc-
ceeding election, only six months later, the
disgust with Liberal rule had grown so
great that the party vote fell off some hun
dreds. He failed TO mention that next
February the clean and reputable Liberals
OF Ogden will join hands with the People
and drive their own party of extravaganza,
lncompetency and misrule into retirement.
Holding high his hands and shaking his
.wavy locks the reverend gentleman
shouted. Even Salt Lake has wheeled
into line and sent thrill of joy through
the nation The present indications
are that on February 10 this
city will join the great ranks of
American cities and unfurl beyond the
Wasatch range the American banner never
to be furled.'' Now, wouldn't the reverend
take it in out of the wet, If it were raining
hard! Without thought of being often
sivc or casting. doubt or reflection upon
any statement made by so good man as
Mr.. LIFE, we will ask if he has never seen
the American banner unfurled this side of
the Wasatch! Does he expect to see that
banner unfurled here for the first time on
February 10! Does the gentleman. not
know that the banner was unfurled here
when ne was very small child if not be-

rupt courts can stand between the guilty
and their punishment, and we apprehend
that the local tribunals are as eager as pri-
waite citizens to see justice melted out to
those who would undertake to commit the
awful crime against the community of car
rying the election by fraud.
If half that has been charged regarding
the registration is true, and if half of the
truth shall be developed, there will occur
such sensation hereabouts as has not be-
fore been experienced. 1t is to be hoped
the sensation will not come; it is to be hoped
that those who have been wheedled into IL
legal registration will show more respect
for the law and higher regard for their
personal regulations and safety, and care
fully avoid the polls on election day; and it
is also to be hoped that no one will tempt
the prison by offering to vote in name
other than his own.

PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AME
MENIS,
AMEND.

The joint resolution introduced in the
House last month by Representative TAY-
LoR, of Ohio, ''for the amendment of the
constitution of the United States in regard
to polygamy and polygamous association or
cohabitation between the sexes,n declares
that it is deemed necessary to so amend
the constitution. The article is numbered
sixteen, and is as follows:
Section1. The marriage relation. by contract
or IN 1aci. between one person of either sex and
more than one person of the other sex shall be
deemed polygamy. Neither polygamy nor any
polygamouS association or cohabitation between
the sexes shall exist or be lawful in any place
within the jurisdiction of the United States ar
OF any state.
Sec. 2. The United States shall not, nor shall
any state make or enforce any law which shall
allow polygamy or polygamous association or
cohabitatlon between the sexes but the United
States and every state shall prohibit the same
by law within their respective Jurisdictions.
Sec. 3. The Judicial power of the United States
shall extend to the prosecution of the crimes of
polygamy and OF polygamouS association or CO.
habltatlon between the sexes under this
article; and Congress shall have power to
declare by law the punishment therefor
Sec q. Nothing in the constitution or in this
article shall be construed to deny to any state
the exclusive power, subject to the provisions
of this article, to make and enforce all laws con-
corning marriage and divorce within its jurisdic
respecting the same within any state.
On the 18th instant Representative
SPRINGER, of Illinois, introduced a Joint
resolution providing for an amendment to
the constitution declaring that ''1he Con-
gress shall have power to make uniform
law of marriage and divorce" 1t is not
believed that either of these proposed
amendments will be ratified bv the neces
sary threefourths of the legislatures of
the several states, provided they shall be
adopted by Congress and be submitted to
the states, which is also doubtful The
majority of the people of the United States
are not willing to declare that ''polygamous
association or cohabitation between the
sexes'' shall be an offense punishable by
the United States. They do not object to
the United States dealing with the bust
ness in the territories the Mormons only
being concerned but it is quite another
matter when it comes to applying the rule
to everybody. Nor are the states inclined
to confess that they cannot manage the
subject Of marriage and divorce within
their respective jurisdictions 1t is not
surprising to find a Republican Offering the
proposed amendment, it being part of the
Republican doctrine and aim to centralize
legislation and political power in the
federal government; but it seems little
peculiar that a prominent Democrat like
SPRINGER should desire to abridge the
rights of the states in matters which are
purely local.

Editor Daily LIGHT, San Antonio, Texas:
SIR-Enclose clipping from your
paper of the 2lst. Arrived at San
Antonio the evening of the 18th on
my way to California, and found at
the Maverick hotel paper, the Daily
LIGHT, which surprised me, from the
fact that it was the only republican
paper that l had found between st.
Louis and San Antonio, after having
stopped at all the principal towns
and seeing all of the local papers, and
wondered what sort of town it could
be in the state of Texas where a re-
publican paper could flourish. The
next morning started out to see for
myself and was not then surprised to
find San Antonio the most progress.
i've, prosperous and beautiful city
that L had visited after leaving ST.
Louis.
Republicanism and prosperity seem
to 60 together-as witness, southern
California, formerly the hot bed of
democracy, where as soon as eastern
men, republicans. began to settle,
prosperity commenced and property
which before was only worth thou
sands, soon became worth millions;
and southern California, which for
merly gave large democratic MAORI
ties, today gives large republican
majOrities, so much so, that Los An
geles county is now the banner re-
publican county OF the state. Why
is this "thusly," and how can it be
accounted Tor in any other way than
that where republican principals get
a good foothold there prosperity is
pretty sure to follow.
