Mormon Conference.

The Mormon conference con-
vened this morning at 10 o'clock in
R0binson's opera house. There are
about seventy,fiv delegates IN at
tendance from the various churches
in the State, all of which churches
are under the spiritual supervision
of Elder Pomeroy. In addition,
two godly apostles from Salt Lake
City are present at the conference
to expound the Word to the assem-
bled saints.
This morning apostle Lyman ad,
dressed the convention. Those
who went down to the conference
expecting to hear lengthy exc
gesis on the advantages of pOlyga-
my as compared with mOnOgamy,
we're most woet'ully disappointed.
The general tenor of the apostles
remarks was pretty much the same
us that of any of the modern prot
estant preachers. The apostle
seems to rely on saving grace and
faith and things of that sort as
much as any of them. Not a word
about polygamy did he utter. In
conversation yesterday afternoon,
however, lie took occasion to EN-
phasize the fact that polygamy
was not an essential doctrine OF
MormOnism.-JacksOn News.

The LynchIng Evil.

The press of the State is be
ginning to take stand against the
lynching evil and a good healthy
sentiment is being built ur
against it.
The Br0okhaven Leader offers
this as a remedy:
"a practical remedy is the pas.
sage of a law providing for the ap-
pOintment of a sufficient number OF
special criminal judges whose duty
it shall be to visit the several cOun-
ties where capital Offenses are COM
mitted, convene court and give ac-
cused speedy trial. This remedy,
we believe, was recommended by
Governor Stone in his last message
to the legislature and should have
been favOrably acted upon Delay
has only emphasized It's lrnpor-
tance.
"lf these means were adopted
aud then where murderers and
rapists were convicted by the
courts, well-meaning but unwise
citizens would let the law take its
course and not proceed at once
to get verdicts of juries set aside
by appealing to the Governor for a
communication or pardon, there would
be a vast improvement in the stu.
alton all along the line"
There is no sort of doubt but
that a rigid and speedy enforce
ment of the law will decrease
lynching.
The Supreme Court has con-
firmed lot of murder cases and
sentenced the gnilty ones to hang
and now the relatives of the con
demned men are getting up petit
tions for a Communication of sen
tence.
Governor McLaurin has never
gone to extremes in the use of his
power IN this direction and it is
safe to say that he will let the law
take its course.
When a criminal has been con.
yicted in the lower court and the
verdict sustained by the higher
court it is safe to say he is guilty.

Important to Assessors.

A highly interesting case was
argued before Judge Powell in the
circuit court at Jackson on last
Friday.
The style of the case is w. A.
Brogan, the assessor of Union
county, VS.. w. ID. Holder, auditor.
1t is a test suit aud on It hangs a
number of other cases.
During the administration of
Auditor Stone that official con.
strued tine law which directs that
the assessor shall receive five per
cent on the assessment roll, to
mean that he was entitled to five
per cent. on the personal and five
per cent. OH the realty roll, which
would amount to ten per cent, on
the whole.
Auditor Holder construes the
statute to mean that the assessors
are only to receive five per cent. on
the two rolls and that the personal
and realty rolls in the eyes of the
statute constitute one roll, and
taking this view, the auditor re-
fused to issue warrants on the
the treasury allowing compeBsa.
ton on both rolls.
The assessors of this State de-
termined 10 test the Auditors
construction of the statute and
Mr.. Brogan's case was decided on
as test case. Capt. Frank John
ston, of Jackson, represented the
assessors and AT. Gen. Nash
appeared for the Auditor. The ar.
guments were full and complete,
covering every phase of the case.
The Attorney General submitted
an unofficial opinion of the Su,
preme Court to the effect that the
Auditors position was a correci
one. Judge Powell took the mat
ter under advisement, and mex;
morning handed down a decision
sustaining the Auditor.
The decision in this case is
fraught with great interest to the
Assessors of the smaller countries,
for if the courts decide that the
Auditor is right many of them
will not receive amy compensation
from from the State at all, as the
books of the Auditor will show that
they have overdrawn their ac-
counts. It is even held by some that
those Assessors who are now out
of office and who received compen
sation in the old way arc liable to
be sued by the State for the
amounts they were over rayed.
No suit for long time has been
fraught with as much interest.

Messrs. Cassidy & Cassidy have
submitted a proposition to the Board
,f Supervisors to purchase lot on the
north corner of the Court House

erect large brick law office. If the
Board takes favorable action in the
premises, they will erect a building
With rooms enough to accommodate all
Of the lawyers of the local bar, and in
The centre will be large library room,
accessible from all the offices, which
will be suitably fitted up and used for a
common law library, where all the
lawyers will keep their books and add
TO the general stock from time to time.
The LEADER is glad to hear that the
members of the Board think favorably
Of the proposition. Such a building
would not only be a valuable addition

cessible at all times to the County
officials and visiting attorneys, would
