CURRENT OPINIONS.
Straws Which Show the Drift of
 Public Sentiment.

Bulletin: Brigham Young Jr. seems to be giving taffy to the English press. He says that the Mormons always had, and always would honor the laws of the land, which sounds strange to American ears. He further says that laws against plural marriage have been passed, the President of the Mormon Church has submitted. It took him long time to find out what the law required, and his submission smachs # deathbed repen tance, although ter late than never. As to it's being popular delusion that the Mormons were compelled to have more than one wife, it is fact that they gre earnestly enj 0ined to have as many as they could get, and women was taught that there was DO heaven for them if they died unmarried. Put this and that, and the gathering up of European girls by Mormons mission aries, together and uniy one inference IS possible l. ;his working of the Eng fish press intenifG ;o encourage Nor mon emigration from the United King dom:.

COCO REPORT.
A Six Foot Vein of Coal has Been
 Struck.

Col. Fran cisco Garcia, of San Marcial. is in the city, and yesterday he received a telegram of congratulation from Col. Belton, who was officially detailed by the Mexican government to report as to the progress made in the San Marcial coal fields, Sonora, Mexico. Col. Belton telegraphed that 6 foot vein of the finest grade of anthracite coal had been struck at F feet, and that they are now at 80 feet in a solid seam of anthracite in which they have gone down six feet, without going through. At this point the diamonds came out of the drill and work will be delayed till repairs can be made.
 This report, coming as it does from this official authority, must be taken as meaning great deal for this section. It will completely revolation.ze business through the southwest, and by cheapen- ing fuel, add a new impetius to our mining industries. With the opening of such a qualify and quantity of fuel it is difficult indeed to forsee how much the country IS to be benefited.

FRANK LESLIE'S POPULAR
 MONTHLY
For November, 1890.

A spendid illustrated paper on "Henry M. Stanley: His Career and Achieve ments," by George c. Hurlbut, Secre- tary of the American Geographical So ciety, makes Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly for November an exceptional interesting number. For a graphic re- view of StanleY's eventful career, and the Emin relief expedition in particular from an American standpoint, Mir Hurlbut's article surpasses .anything that has as yet appeared on this fasci mating :topic of the day. In the same number Felix Oldboy propounds and an swers the question, "WhO was Charlotte Temple?' bringing forward some hypotheses and revelations which will startle the thousands of romance lovers who have strewn overs on the myste rious grave of the Trinity Church-yard New York City. There are illustrated articles on: "Buenos Ayres," by John Stanley; "'Coon-hunting in South Caro- lina," by H. M. Howard; Great Pahchu, lakah, the Western Niagara" by W. D Lyman, Some Copts in Old Carlo '1sec- ond paper, by A. l.. Townsend; "A Yer mont Island and itsi Inhabitants" by Nellie Bart Wordsworth; and History of Human Habitations," by Marc F. VaIlette. The half-dozen short stories are varied and interesting, and the poems lift, though few" Among the art illustrations is Ia beautiful portrait of Dorothy Tennant, the English bride of Henry M. Stanley.

 Edward w. Box writes the following:
 A woman's smile, for example, at tracts man; but an even temper re- tains him.
 A pretty gown attracts a man; the knowledge that 1t was inexpensive de- lights hlm.
 A pleasant manner attracts a man; brightness of brain holds him. 4 knowledge of how, when and where to be little stately attracts man; an appreciation of the folly of frivolity wins his respect. A respect for the religious belief of ger human being attracts a man; ic- [ verence in woman Is to him abomina- ble.
 A consideration for his comfort at t acts a man; a continuance of this n lkes him your most humble slave.
 A chat in which there is no malice at tracts man; neither scandal nor evil speaking makes a woman seem sweet and lovely to him. *** Wednesday night the "Fort Lowell Social Club," composed ofs.twenty of their brightest, fun-loving young men of the garrison, gave their first monthly ball of the season at the headquarters building. The arrangements were all that could be desired. The decorations were simple but tasteful, portions of the ballroom being beautifully draped with the na- tlonal celors, while arms of the officers were so arranged as to produe a splen- did effect. The music was excellent, inspiring. and will long be remembered as one of the features of the evening. The clubs guests from Tucson, about 20 in number were cordially received and they contributed largely to the sue cess and enjoyment of the entertain ment. The managers are deserving of much credit for the able manner in which they looked after the details of the ball. The ladies of the Ford were we'll re- presented, and looked as charming as possible although no especial effort was made in the way of toilets At 12 o'clock the revelery was at its heighth. Their merry laughter and in spring music blended into rich harmony and fioated away on the calm night air. over parade to hover soothingly above Coyote Hill"

 RepC blican: A gentleman we'll in- formed In Arizona politics, and who if very intimately acquainted with the feeling of the people in Cochlse and Pi- ma counties assures The Republican that Cheyney will carry both counties by good majorities.
 In his own county, MT. Cheyney if I deservedly popular and widedly known | and mutual friends of the contestants for the delagateship admit that Chey- ney's chances are better than Smith, 1 in his county.
 In Pima county Cheyney has hosts oi ] friends and all the factions alike, are putting their best licks in for Cheyney The blind that Smith held up tc
 make congressional sneak on has drop ped to the ground, and heis left stand ing out in the bold relief of a political charlatan. He has promised too much l and accomplished nothing. The peo pie tried him the second time, so that he | might not justly claim that he had been
 deprived of the time required to do the work he so boldly, and promiscuously promised to do, and his second term
 has sunk him into oblivion, as far as | any practical results go He has the eff. frontery now to ask third term, and
 will probably be full of his great @ land grant record; his anti-land court talk
 his proposed public buildings; a deeI
 harbor on the Salt River; damages from Indian depredations; three or four new ! railroads, and an aerial velocipsde or two directly connecting Arizona with all the | cheap marxets of the world. Then he
 will promise free coinage, 9 cents for | copper and 10 cents for lead. But though these promises are delivered with an | oily tongue, the voting masses are not
 to be fooled. They want the practical
 results, and Mir. Smith cannot show them.
 He has been tried and found wanting. and the voters know 1t. In his first
 campaign he told the voters of Maricopa
 county that they must send demo
 crat to congress because the Adminlstra-
 tion was democratic and a ublican
 delegate could do nothing with an Ad-
 ministration hostile to his political faith
 We can say to the voters of Marcopa
 to-day. Mir. Smith can do nothing for
 Arizona compared to delegate in har-
 mony with the administration at Wash ington.
 When MT. Cheynsy comes to Marico-
 pa with majorities from Pima and O.
 chise counties we will have in print,

 Hera l: The difference between the democratis: administration of the ter ritorai prison ard the republican admin iztration f the same institution Is pretty accarately measured by the fol lowing figures which the books show. The cost of keeping one prisoner one da" under the last three esuperintendents is as follows:
 GIat $, democrat ................Sl Sl 50 Bel an, democrat. t...... 1 IS Ingalls,, republican. n............... O,i9
 The figures speak for themselves and show the extravaganza of the democratic administration of which Gov. Zulick, P. R. Brady, J. H. Behan and Thos. Halleck were the manipulators.

 Nogalas Herald: On the occasion of Judge Barnes recent visit, with the demorratic circus, to Harshaw his speech feii rather flat. In fact so fiat that its weakness was freely commented upon. Seelng this he concluded that he must make an impression in some way and after the meeting went to sa- loon and had a high old time. He played the fiddle, Mexican thumped the guitar, maudlin individuals took turns at dancing and thus were the hours whlled away till 3 a. m. s&s
 Epitaph: Again We say, if the peo- ple want to get at the true inwardness of the territorial prison during the | administration of Zulick. Brady ct al., | they had better cast thelr votes for W. l F. Nichols. There must be something rotten in Denmark or the Zulick crowd would not be making such desperate l effO ts to carry the legislature. <. F.

Josiah Potts and wife we're hanged
at Elko yesterday for the murder OF
old man Faucet at Carlin, in 1889.
The drop fell at precisely 10 AS o'clock.
The disagreeable job was well per-
formed by Sheriff Bernard and Under
Sheriff Dawley. This is the first
woman hung in Nevada and we hope
it may be the last one. The Board OF
Pardons should have commuted the
sentence to imprisonment for life.
There was no evidence against the
Pottses except that which they fur
nished themselves. II they had been
properly defended they would not
have been allowed to 90 on the wit
ness stand, without which they could
not have been convicted. They have
claimed all along that Faucet
committed suicide and that their
only crime was in trying to conceal
the body. We have not learned
whether or not they made confession
at the last moment.

In Its New Quarters.

The San Francisco Chronicle has
moved into its new building. The
SENTINEL had an invitation to be pres
ent at the christening. As a news
paper the Chronicle ranks as one of
the best on the Coast. Its political
opinions however, are always narrow
and biased and uncandid. It has
made its greatest headway through
its energy and enterprise in gathering
the news. Its editorial utterances
have never commanded a great deal OF
respect. The SENTINEL likes the
Chronicle for news, while cordially
hating it for the unfair manner in
which it presents the political issues.
For great paper to lie constitutes, in
our opinion, one of the greatest crimes
against civilization.
