The cost of the stay of visitors at Delhi

houses of the town have all been quickly
hired at from $50, 900 to 80, 600 apiece.
Rude huts erected in Delhi will cost
500 daily for board and lodging for each
person, and 800 will be charged daily
for carriage hire. Some of the travellers

CONGRESSMAN PERKINS, republican,
from one of the New York districts, an
nounces that he win introduce a bill at
the next session of Congress for the re-
peal of the tax on hides and meats, coal

THERE is NO question that Apostle
Reed Smoot of the Mormon Church
will be elected United States Senator In
Utah. and that he will be elected as the
representative of the Mormon Church.
BEFORE he announced himself as a can
didate for the Senate, Smoot submitted
his aspirations to the judgment Of the
church authorities. Had they declined
to approve his purpose, he would have
been compelled to abandon it. But the
church approved, and Smoot has prac-
tically announced himself as the church
candidate for the Senatorship. Under
ordinary circumstances, while this
might not affect his selection by the
Utah Legislature, there would still have
been grave doubt whether the Senate,
exercising, as it does, the right to Judge
the qualifications of its members, would
have permitted him to take his seat.
But the Mormons, whatever they may
be as religionists, are far-sighted poll
ticians, and they arranged for this IN
advance. The Senatorial fight in
Idaho is really the keynote of the situa-
ton. and the Mormons, who are numer-
Gus in that State, and recognize the
jurisdiction of the church in Utah, have
used their strength to force an agree
ment from the republican managers OF
the Senate which will give them a
representative in that body. Outside OF
Utah they are stronger in Idaho than in
any other State 1t was, therefore, in
Idaho they saw their opportunity to
make deal, and, according to Idaho
politicians, the deal was consummated
before the elections. Mormons vote
not as they think, but as the church
directs, and they voted the republican
ticket in Idaho because the church
wanted pledge from the republican
leaders of the Senate that Smoot would
be seated when elected. That pledge
thew are said to have obtained. The
Senatorial republican managers agreed
to the deal, not only because they
wanted to carry Idaho, but because they
wanted to name the Senator to be
elected there this winter to succeed Sen
ator Heitfeld. They wanted not only a
republican, but the right sort of
republican, and with the Mormon vote
they can name their man.

Mr.. JOHN S. WISE has become Oh e
associate of two negro lawyers in suit
brought in the United States Courts to
test the validity of the new constitution
of Virginia. These three worthless hold
that the new constitution is unconstitu-
tional, according to the constitution OF
the United States, and that therefore the
recent election held in this State is
invalid. Mr.. Wise has never forgiven
the people of Virginia for the just rebuke
the Westmoreland Club in Richmond
administered to him in blackballing him,
and since that time he has let pass no
opportunity of attempting to traduce or
besmirch the old commonwealth Years
ago he left the State for the States good
but periodically returns to infict injury
this time to become the associate OF
negro lawyers in such endeavor. Mr..
Wise was once a blatant democrat and
negro-hater and was so embittered against
Southern republicans that he designated
them as "apostates for the price of their
apostacy." Then, becoming incensed
at not being sent to Congress by the
democrats, he became blatherskite re-
publican and out Heroded Herod in his
hatred of and his attempt TO injure the
white people of his own State. But his
last effort will be as futile as his Others
and he will soon return to New York
where he says he would rather be a
lamppost than to be Governor of Vir-
ginia.
