GOVERNOR THOMAS REPORTS.



Arthus l.. Thomas, governor Of Utah terri
tory, In his annual report estimatos-fsc popu-
lation Of the territory to be 223, $50, an In
crease of 6025 over the census enumeration
Of 1890. The foreign immigration has fallen
below the average and the domestic has not
equalcd that of the year previous year, but
there has been steady growth In the COM
mcrcial and mining centers and .Spilroad
cities and towns. Tho assessed valuation Of
property for 1892 was ss7, 200 900, IN increase
Of 1.G8 per cent. lie recommends that Con.
gress place the unsold public lands under thu
control of the state and territorial authorities
with authority to lease them in sufficiently
large tracts TO make it an object to stockmeI
10 apply for them. Unless this Is done theie
value for grazing purposes will be entirely
destroyed.
The mining industry has been exceedingly
depressed because Of the depreciation of sill
yer. The people OF Utah look forward with
much anxiety to the results of the interna-
tlonal silver conference. They hope for such
recognition OF silver as will make II again
full measure OF values.
Natural gas has been found In Salt Lake
valley, and wells have been bored which
promise gratifying results. Valuable deposits
Of slate and other materials have been dis
covered. The UNCONVENTIONAL schools are
steadily giving way to the public schools.
Governor Thomas says that polygamy in
the territory is on tho decline. He says that
he does not believe that any polygamous mar
riagcs have taken place during the year with
the consent or permission Of the Mormon
leaders, and IL is his conviction that there is n
sincere intention on the part Of the Mormon
people not to approve or sanction yts.,'amous
marriages in the future. l.Ya' -
He says 1t Is to be regretted that the sim
cerity Of whole people seeking to accom-
plish great reform should be placed under
suspicion by the acts Of n few, but such is the
case. 1t is sure ~ be some timc and may be
years, before the practice OF unlawful cohabi-
tatlon will entirely cease.
In regard TO the admission of Utah as a
state, Governor Thomas says: at is my
opinion, having due consideration for the
wishes and feelings af all, that between the
two great elements OF the population, Mormon
and non-Mormon, the sympathy Of feeling
and harmony OF purpose does not exist which
is so essential to the prosperity and happiness
of the people under statehood, yet it would
be an act unworthy the justice of great gov
ernment to turn deaf ear to the appeal Of
the men who In Utah have always upheld its
authority and obeyel the laws.n

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-The World
prints an interview with Chauncey NJ.
Depew, in which he outlines what he
believes will be the future policy of the
Republican party. He says that there
will be reconstruction. and that it will
continue to be the party of progress.
Reverses will simply stimulate its ener-
gies to renewed efforts and renewed tri-
umphs. The first plank in the Repub-
lican platform for 1896. Mr.. Depew de-
clares, will be a protective tariff. It
will not be the Mckinley bill. but the
protective policy will be adhered to.
The policy of the party on inmigra-
ton. Mr.. Depew further declares. will
be to place additional restrictions about
it, but the force bill issue will be put
aside.
Mr. Depew added that there were no
new leaders in sight, and that Mr.. Har-
rison would fill the place left vacant by
Mr.. Cleveland's promotion to the presi-
dency and greatly enlarge it. He will
be for the next four years the one pri-
vate citizen whose appearance will COM

A dispatch from Washington,
says: 1t will be particularly good
news in West Virginia, that one of
the first things to be done at the
coming session of Congress, in
obedience to the mandates of the
people issued November 9Th, will
be an attempt to repeal the federal
election law under which hordes of
deputy marshals were appointed by
the Republicans in the desperate
hope of rejoicing Harrison. 1t is
understood now to be the plan of
the Democrats to attach ga rider"
to the legislative, judicial and
executive appropriation bills repeal
ing the federal elections law. In
this way the Republican Senate will
be compelled to pass the act of
repeal.

THANKSGIVING ProeIamation.

Gov. Fleming, under date of No
vember 10th, 1892 has issued the
following proclamation:
Four hundred years have marked
the march of time since Columbus
achieved the triumph of the discov-
cry of the American Continent,
whereon God has since planted and
prospered contented people, whose
civil and religious freedom and gem
eral advancement in civilization are
now challenging the admiration of
all nations.
Hence it is especially meet at this
time that our people should express
their gratitude to God for protection
vouchsafed, and manifold blessings
bestowed, 1, therefore, recommend
that Thursday, November 24th,
1892, be observed, in conformity
with established custom, as day of
thanksgiving for mercies extended
and prayer for tho continuance of
Divine favor.
Given under my hand at the city
of Charleston, this 18th day of No
vember, in the year of our Lord
one thousand eight hundred and
ninety-two.

The results of the Democratic
victory are yet to be secured. I'm
less congress be called in extra ses-
sion, which is not at all probable,
the active control of the govern
ment for law making purposes will
not come into Democratic hands
until December 1893. Mr.. Cleve-
land will be inaugurated on March
4, 1898, but the Democratic congress
will not, unless Governed by procla-
nation, assemble until December
following. Office holders may be
changed, and very probably they
will be, all of them, before that time,
but all questions relating to the
tariff, finance and general conduct
of governmental affairs will abide
the deliberate action of congress.
Business will not be turned upside
down nor even disturbed, but trusts
and monopolies and combines will
find themselves beset by party that
represents the people and not the
corporations, the many and not the
few, and legislation will be in the
direction of fairness and equality
for all alike.

1T DIDN'T WORK
Tho Scheme to secure Control of n yaIua.
bile Natural Gas Field.

anu sSchtAAc ~ occuEc OonlEOA OF N Nalul-
BILE Natural Gas Field.
ST. MARY's, o., Nov. 21.-The at
tempt of syndicate to lease the tow
path of the Miami and Erie canal, for
purpose of constructing an electric rail-
way between this city and Cincinnati,
has caused great tumult.
1t has just leaked ont that the object
of the syndicate was not to build the
contemplated road, but nothing less
than preliminary step toward securing
the st. Mary's reservoir, which immense
body of water overlies an Invaluable oil
field.
The suspicious part of the entire
scheme is that the syndicate only ask
for the right of way between this city
and Cincinnati, when Toledo would be
more desirable point for the northern
terminal. By obtaining control of this
part would be sufficient to knock out the
canal, and when they have succeeded be
this, the reservoir would soon have 10
go, and would then fall into their posses
sion.
1t is known that the Standard Oil
company has been dickering with the
state for lease of the reservoir for a
long time, but without success, and it is
believed they are at the back of this
project, as last resort to secure control
of the great lake
