PASSENGER RATES.
A Reorganization Of the Weste IN
States Passenger Association


CHICAGO, Speculative general passen-
ger agents of the railroads formerly consti-
tuting the membership Of the Western
States Passenger association met to-day to
consider the question of restoring rates
The sentiment in favor of putting an end to
the war proved to be unanimous, but the
Burlington & Quincy refused to enter into
an agreement to advance rates with
out some arrangement that would
insure reasonable degree Of
permanency for the agreed basis. The
question Of recognizing the Western States
Passenger association was discussed and it
was decided that there were no insurm cunt
able obstacles to such movement. A COM
mittee Of FIVE was appointed to consider this
matter and prepare a report with recon-
mendations to be submitted to an adj
journed meeting to be held Friday morn
ing. The committee was in session all the
afternoon, and will meet again tomorrow.
It is believed the old agreement will be
adopted with very few changes.

HUNDREDS OF VICTIMS.
Metropolis H., DesoIated by the
Storm kings'S Wrath.

Metropolis H., DesoIated by the
Storm kings's Wrath.
METROPOLIS, Ill, Special.-The cyclone
OF last night cut clean sWath about quar-
ter of mile wide clear across the town,
wrecking property of all descriptions, and
burying men, women and children in the
debris Of falling buildings The number OF
victims cannot be ascertained with ANYTHING
like accuracy, but it is reported that several
hundred people were killed or wounded,
and between two or three hundred houses
were swept from their foundations and
dashed to pieces above the heads of their
unfortunate occupants. The storm was past
III moment, and then came q binding
rain, which greatly retarded the work
of rescue. People outside the path ofthe
storm were quickly on the streets and as
FAST as posi- BILE the victims were taken from
the gums. The rain soon ceased and the
full horror of the situation became appar-
emit. On every side could be heard the
groans of the dying and all around lay
the mangled bodies OF the dead.
Scores OF bodies were removed from the
ruins, and the wounded men were taken to
the homes of those who had escaped the
calamity and given every possible attention,
but many have doubtless died through lack
OF proper medical attendance In
ribs Stores that had been considered
substantial, were demolished in an instant.
The Cyclone entered the town on the south
west sweeping everything before it. Small
barns and outbuildings were caught up
by the whirlwind and carried with
crushing force against larger structures.
Trees were twisted off short and
hurled long distances Fences were leyeled
in the country for miles before the cyclone
reached Metropolis, and for miles beyond.
Every church and other prominent build
ing in the place is either destroyed or badly
damaged, including two school houses, the
court house and Jail and many smaller
structures.

Searles and Paine Must Face the
Charge of Robbery.
BRAINERD, Special Telegram
Charles Searles and William Paine, Jr.,
charged with robbing the Northern Pacific
Express company of $15, 900, in April last,
arrived in the city to-day from Missoula,
Mont, in company with Sheriff Spalding.
Fully two thousand people had congregated
at the depot to get glimpse of the prison
ers, but they were let off at the Fourth
street crossing and went Immediately to the
to the sheriff residence, where they dined
and an hour later appeared in the munich
pal court, where bail in s., 900 each was fur
nished for their appearance on Friday at
the preliminary examination. There is a
strong feeling here that the young men will
be able to prove their innocence. The ex-
press company has attached 100 lots in Will
lam Paine Jr.'s name in this city and forty
acres of farming land belonging to Searles,
to indemnify themselves should case be
made against the accused.

INJURED IN A WRECK.
Two Northern Pacific Trains Collide
Near Tacoma

wear = dSOIIlds
TACOMA, Wash, Special Telegram,
Another wreck on the Northern Pa
cific railroad almost equaling in point Of
damage the disaster at Heron, Mont, oc-
Cured almost within sight Of Tacoma to-
day. Freight trains going in opposite di-
rections at a high rate of speed collided
on a curve in the Indian reservation
about three miles from the city. Two loco
motives are reduced to scrap iron in the
ditch, and about half of each train is piled
promiscuously on both sides of the track.
Engineer John Baily was fatally injured,
and both fremen and Engineer William
Pettin badly hurt. The crews Ct both trains
jumped for their lives. A misunderstood
ing Of orders was the cause. One OF the
trains should have side tracked at the point
where the collision occurred.

splendidly conducted in that fight as to enlist the admiration of Democrats even. This was accomplished only with a lavish expenditure of money, which was met by MT. de Young personally. His personal services in that campaign were second in importance only to those of the paper, and the President would have made no mistake to have appoint ed so staunch and able a supporter his Postmaster-G General. Indeed, we be- lieve that he would have strengthened his Cabinet by so doing. California will have magnificent exhibit at Chi cago, if Mir. de Young is given reason- able scope of action. In many direc- tions the influence of his charming and talented wife will also be felt and nota- bly, so in the social aspect while the ex- hibition is actually open. She is Il broaded-minded, public spirited woman, who will enter heartily into this work with her husband.

A Countess without Reproach.
Murat Halstead.


 The Pappenheim-Wheeler nuptials are embellished by several exceptional and pleasing peculiarities. It is not often that the European nobleman is richer than his American bride. Nor is it often that we are not treated to past escapades in the bridegroom's history. This mar riage seems to be strangely lacking in the opportunity to point moral and adorn tale."
 Of this remark: It does both. The moral is that an American lady may be- come German countess without scan- dal or reproach. The true tale is that the American girls are the loveliest in the world-the brightest, the fairest, the sweetest-that they adorn any court or community fortunate enough to capture them, and that this applies abroad as well as at home. Americans might con. sent to admit that European nobleman may be gentleman, in spite of the mournful disadvantages of his education as a member of 6 class that is artificial

WHAT ARIZONA POSSESSES.

"What is there to support popula- ton in Arizona?" writes friend in New York. Everything. There is gold, silver, copper, lead. Coal is now being found. There are mountains of iron and the fluxes are to be had in abundance. Of building stone there is no end. Onyx, rich and beautiful as the Mexican prod uct, is quarried near Prescott.
 The forests of the Territory are ex- haustless. Then we have delightful climate, soil so rich and varied that there's scarcely anything that grows that it will not produce. Cotton can be grown to perfection, the sugar cane pros pers, and no section of the world can rival it in fruits.
 There is that great bugbear, the des- ert, of course, but even that is being made to bloom like the rose by the ap- plication of water, and it's deposits of wealth in salt, soda, borax, gold and other precious metals have not even been prospected. The desert is grand field of enterprise for the prospector and sub serves useful climatic purpose.
 This is not new and untried coun- try. This valley was the home of the primitive man on the American conti- nent and here are still found. the ruins of AISSlhsa6ts uid his Cities, : All ,oyes ths yait Rivesloogalley, an area oi country larger than that of the great Salt Lake basin in Utah, are found the footprints of this ancient civilization, leaving unmistakable evidence of once dense population. Occasionally the re- mains of this race long extinct are found with their implements of war, domestic utensils and other evidences of civili- zation higher than that of the Indian or the Aztec.
 Coincidently with these evidences of a former civilization are found abandoned mines, showing relation between the two that has become law unto the modern prospector.
 The newer civilization is simply re- claiming forsaken land that is as fer tile as the valleys of the Ganges or the Nile and unequalled by any country in mineral resources. These are few ol the things that will support a pop ulation in Arizona, but with the develop, ment of all the possibilities of the coun' try come railroads, mills, smelters, foun' dries, machine shops and all the indus tries attendant upon population. Nc section of the world offers greater in, ducement to capital than Arizona does to-day. Come out and look over Ari zona in the fall when the snows begin tc fall and the northwest breezes to chil about Manhattan Island and see fol yourself what there is here to support 6 population.

MORMONISM AS AN ISSUE.

One must judge system of social organization by its works. So TIE RE PUBLICAN judges the organization known as the Mormon church. There have been stage robbers who, until discovered in their misdeeds, were to all appear ances "good and respectable citizens" A good man may in mistaken zeal belong to a bad organization, but if he will lend his personal effort and influence to such organization, he is just as dangerous a man to society as though he were con scious and willful scoundrel. TIE RE PUBLICAN regards the Mormon church as dangerous to society and consequently to the Republic. In this we are sustained by unanimous decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, which is higher authority than any we can find, entitled to respect and hearing that is not approached by any other in this country. We refer to the Idaho case.
 In the hearing oi this case it was ad- mitted that among the tenets of "The Church of Latter Day Saints, "commonly known as the Mormon church, lis the teaching, advising, encouraging and practicing of bigamy and polygamy." On this point the court says:
 Bigamy and polygamy are crimes by the laws of all civilized and Christian countries . If they are crimes. then to teach, advise and counsel their practice is to aid in their commis- sion, and such teaching and counseling are themselves criminal and proper subjects of punishment, as aiding and abetting crime are in all other cases Probably never be- fore in the history of this country has 1t been seriously contended that the whole primitive power of the government for acts recognized by the general consent of the Christian world in modern times as proper matters for prohibitory legislation, must be suspended in order that the tenets of a religious sect encouraging crime may be carried out without hindrance. Suppose that one believed that human sacrifice were necessary part of religious worship, would it be seriously contended that the civil government under which he lived could not interfere to prevent a sacrifice?
 But the court went further. In con- cluding the very important decision from which we have quoted, it says that in it's judgment law that would deny to member of such an organization this same Mormon church-the right "to vote at any election or to hold any position or office of honor, trust or profit in this Territory is not open to any con stitutional or legal objection" Lam guage stronger could scarcely be used.
 In the decision on the "anti-polygamy law" the same court holds that "the distinguishing feature of Mormonism is well known to be polygamy and absolute ecclesiastical control of it's church mem- bers," thus settling beyond controversy the criminal character of the church and it's unpatriotic tendency. The church in Arizona is no better than the church in Idaho and Utah.
 In Idaho and Utah, Democrats and Republicans are unit on this question. In Idaho they vied with each other be- fore Congress for the Mormon test oath to be retained in the State Constitution, even going so far as to say that without it the Constitution would be rejected by

easy. The breach cannot be healed. It is evident that Mir, Huntington doesn't want to heal it and open hostilities from the other side may be expected soon. Mir. Stanford is mild hammered man, but beneath the velvet hand rests the grasp of iron. He will not strike un- til he must, but when he does it will be effective. Politics may have been costly to the Company, but it also saved it hundreds of thousands of dollars, as Mir. Huntington will discover before he is a year old in the Presidency. A legisla- ture will be in session in Sacramento in January and there will be three or four others along the lines of the system about the same time and the cinch- billers will have lost their cunning fl they do not make the old man dance.

Standing in the center of a twentytwo-acre tract, under high cultivation, two hundred feet back from the ocean bluff Arc lights on the grounds. Finest surf bathing in America. The house has a fine Otis elevator and by far the handsomest music and dancing hall in California. The dining room is perfect gem of artistic perfection, su- perbly furnished and so arranged that every seat commands a view of the ocean. There is gallery at one end, where a fine band plays for the evening dances also playing on the veranda in the morning, in the music and dancing room at night Morning germans will be feature of the house The cuisine will also be promi- nent factor. The house and surroundings are simply perfection-new, sweet and clean-and must be cen to oe appreciated. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe runs six trains daily from Los Angeles. The company own their own rail road, running to Los Angeles, connecting with the Grand Avenue cable system, running twelve finely equipped trains daily each way, landing passengers right back of the hotel There is a pier where boats from San Francisco, San Diego and other points make regular landings. Steam and sailing yachts can be had. The fishing is the finest on the coast.

Special rates for permBnents and families. All letters address to the manager.

the people, much as they desired State- hood. Only in Arizona is found the spectacle of the Democracy taking the members of this outlawed society under it's wings. This should in itself be suffi- cient to damn the party and defeat it.
 It will not do to say that the Mormons in Arizona are not polygamous. The convictions in the Courts have included every Mormon settlement in the Terri tory. Even President Robinson, of the Mesa Stake, has served his time. Women with families and no fathers are found in every settlement. Brother Johnson, late of Tempe, for in- stance, is credited with from ninety to hundred children and prob ably dozen wives. Brother Crismon, of Mesa, is credited with from sixty to seventy chil- dren and numerous wives. It is to suchs people that the Chris tian people of Arizona and particu- larly of this valley are asked to "accord every right given to any honorable peo- ple."
 We are further presented with an argument that polygamy ia of divine origin and that Jesus Christ was born in polygamy. The Democratic organ ol this county has made such argument to the Christian preachers and teachers of this community. Indeed, Mormonism seems to he the chief issue between the Republicans and the Democrats in this county. The gage having been thrown down by the Democratic organ, the Re, publicans accept it and are ready for the combat.

THE LAW IN THE CASE.

The cases involving the management of the Insane Asylum and of the Territo- rial Prison, being actions by the appoint ments of Governor Wolhey against the hold-over appointees of ex-Governor Zu- lick, were decided by Judge Kibby yes- terday. The decision was just what every rational, sensible person knew it would be, in favor of the Wolfley ap- pointees and against the usprpers. ,s. gThefe actions having bean for actual possession of the offices, ths judgment is operative at once, and the usurpers will have to vacate or stand liable for con tempt of court. An appeal may be taken, but it cannot act as a supersedeas and the judgment IS instantly operative.
 There was nothing developed in the trial of these cases of so much import ance as two remarks made in Court yes terday, one by Judge Barnes, of Tucson, and the other by MT. Street, both of counsel for the defense. Judge Barnes admitted that the demurrers filed in the cases of Behan and Alexander, that they were employees and not public officers, were not based on law or just ice, in saying: "Your Homer, have come to the conclusion that your decision of the demurrers in these cases is correct" In other words, the de- murrers were simply resorted to for delay and despite the mysteries of the Zulick press, were not honest. Judge Street, referring to the remaining cases to be heard to-day, said to the Court that there was actual "merit in these cases" indicating that he was we'll satisfied with the outcome in the cases that had gone before.
 This ends disagreeable and costly litigation that should never have been forced on the Territory. The law was clearly in favor of the men who were yesterday given their places and there was not the least shadow which the hold-overs could produce to sustain their unpatriotic position. Whatever expense and injury to the Territory has come through these cases is directly chargeable to the men who made these contests necessity and whose love of office was greater than the public good. Everybody will rejoice that an end has come to this chaotic condition.

THE workingmen of America have not by any means solved the great labor problem, the true relation between the workingman and capital. That it will be finally solved by Unionism, by organ ized labor, there is no doubt, but the strikes that have been and are still in progress throughout the country are to be regretted. They are loss to those directly engaged in them and to all the country, because so much productive en- ergy is paralyzed and made only to con sume instead of adding to the wealth and happiness of the world. The only hope of labor IS thorough organization, but it must gain it's victories by means less costly to itself.

TIE great astronomical observatories of the world will be founded on the Paci- fic Coast. The splendid work already ac- complished at the Lick observatory on Mount Hamilton has called the attention of stronoamers to the clear and cloudless regions of the Western slope. Harvard University and the University of South ern California are now fighting before Congress for exclusive rights on Wilson's Peak, near Los Angeles. There are so many eligible peaks in the high, clear sections of California and Arizona, as to make it almost appear ridiculous to see two great universities fighting for par ticular point.

HARRISON'S ADMINISTRATION.

The present Republican administra- ton has been in power long enough to have given the people an idea of its pur- poses. While there is carping here and there, the unprejudiced observer must admit that Mir. Harrison's policy is dis tinctively on the lines that meets with the hearty approval of large propor- ton of the members of his party. There is no question about its true Republi- canism- It is an administration for the whole country. The cabinet is com posed of capable, pure Republicans, men of experience and recognized wisdom and integrity. In its councils affairs of State are discussed and determined upon not in partisan spirit, but on lines of the wisest statesmanship, the best and most enduring interests of the Republic Its Americanism is pronounced, but not so offensively so as to offend the aspira- tions of the sister Republics. The plans and purposes of the foremost American of the day, James G. Blaine, the able and honored Secretary of State, have been initiated in the Pan American and Maritime Conferences with the hearty approval and encouragement of the Pres ident.
 It is a dignifed, able, honest, states manlike administration. Ridicule of a harmless sort there has been, as there always will be, but not a breath of scandal has been uttered against it. The conduct of the White House has been admirable, reflecting in an eminent degree the best life under our institu- tions, an example of domestic life credita- ble to the country and the administra- ton and the admiration of the friends of Republican government throughout the world. With MT. Harrison's administration the Repub- licans have every reason to be satis- fled and one with which they can again safely go before the American people.
