from encroachment by pirates upon the
public veal Lot the committee make
its work complete, so that whatever
wrong exists shall be redressed, so that
whatever violations of law have been
committed shall be punished, and so
that security without further investi-
CATION, scandal, or reproach may be
attained for all time,
There have been may schemes among
land officials in other parts Of the coun-
try for personal enrichment at the cost
Of the rights Of individual citizens
seeking, under the generous land
laws of the Nation, to So
cure homesteads, desert lands
or timber claims. For instance,
one form Of the conspiracy which was
in vogue in parts of the Pacific coast
region, and which was cruelty
successful, was as follows:
When an applicant lawfully en-
titled to enter land would
appear at the Office and offer TO file his
claim, he was told that the plats had
not yet arrived from Washington, or
that the survey had not been complet-
ed, or that some other circumstance pre-
vented acceptance of his application at
that time. Then representatives of the
conspirators, guided by the valuable
information afforded by the legitimate
applicant, were sent out to examine
the particular locality described, If
the property met the approval Of their
schemes, when the original would-be
entryman would again appear he would
be advised that in the meantime the
plats had arrived, or that the other for
mer pretended difficulty had
been removed; but that some
other individual had already
filed upon the land desired. Thus the
work of seeking out good lands was
performed by innocent citizens for the
personal benefit Of the conspirators;
and the conspirators, possessing the ad
ditional value Of inside official infor-
nation, would send (as fast as the
lands were selected by legitimate appl-
cants) their emissaries out to secure
the choicest tracts Of the Government
domain.
There are rumors that. in more than
one instance this and other evil poll
cies have found practical demonstration
in the disposition of Utah lands.
In view of the many plots to which
land-grabbers have resorted, it may be
deemed incumbent upon the committee
of investigation to make most search
ing inquiry into the entire course of
the State Land board or boards, and
their employees, since the date of ad.
mission.

in that body. This paper also said that
the action of the Senate had determined
the proposition that there was not
single reason in law, ethics, or politics
now, which would prevent the accep-
tance and retention Of a Catholic car
dinal as Senator; and that If the rule
of numerical equation Of representation,
as presented in the number Of adhe-
rents of the two organizations, were to
be observed, the Senate could be prac"
tically Catholic And while there is
no danger that the church of Rome
would permit itself to so intrude itself
whore it does not belong, there Is no
rule of logic which would operate.
against the justice Of such an event
if the Smoot decision is to be permitted
to stand as a precedent.
The News complains that The Trib'
une refuses to bow TO the conclusion
of the Senate. The Tribune does not
contend that the Senate has acted out
side of it's legal power; but this paper
insists that no question has been set
tied until il has been settled right; and
and inasmuch as the consequences Of the
Senate decision will probably come back
to unbearably vex tho Nation, we ex-
pect to sec the recent steps rctraced,
no matter how painful may be the
retreat. Naturally the Senate has a
legal right, and constitutional right, to
seat or unseat an elected Senator. The
Tribune's contention was, and is, that
sufficient grounds were asserted and
proved in the Smoot case to Justify his
exclusion from an American Senate. A
contrary view was procured from ma
.iority of Senators; but in the years
to come, when the full effect of their
exercise Of their legal power shall be
recognized, and when it shall become
known that Mormon apostle is mere
ly the representative OF an alien and
antagonistic government, probably
majority of the Senators, then sitting,
may be glad of an opportunity to re-
verse-by virtue of their legal right
the present policy.
In the meantime, it is an exhibition
of mighty poor taste for the Deseret
News to be whining about regard of
law, and demanding quiescence after de-
cision has been reached by legal tri-
bunal OF legislative body. The profes-
sed organ of the Lord could read q
significant lesson to itself and to its
masters, if it only would. as to this
matter of bowiug to authority. But the
News will not do that, preferring to
remain the unblushing champion of
fraud, deceit, hypocrisy, law-brea king,
treason, and ignorance.

A SOUND PETITION.

The petition which the Board of Par
dons has received from citizens Of San
Juan county, against the pardon of
Charles Botha, is entitled to very ear
nest and serious consideration. This
for two reasons. First, for the princi-
pie involved, and the facts in the case,
as rccited; these show that mon
strous crime was committed, and that
Botha, convicted Of that crime, deserves
in fact the full rigor of the law. Sec
ond, the standing of the petitioners is
such that what they say is entitled to
respectful attention.
We fully believe that q great wrong
would be committed upon the commu-
nifty if Botha were pardored. The ut
most limit of clemency reasonably posi-
BILE in his case was extended when his
sentence was committed from the death
penalty to imprisonment for life. For,
his crime was most atroclous one. He
took n young girl out into the wilds of
a now region, put her in mere lean'to,
such as would heardly serve as n sheep
shelter, and left her alone there days
and nights together, sometimes as long
as week or more, with scanty and un-
ft food, at times hardly enough to keep
her from starvation, Ho was utterly
callous to all idea that he was treating
his young wife shamefully. He was
coarse, brutal, cruel in the treatment
OF her. Finally she decided in one of
his frequent and long absences to 60
home to her mother Ill Colorado. She
was invited by Mr.. Tibbetts, against
whose good faith and honesty in the
matter there WAS not the faintest sug-
gestion during the trial, to rest and
recruit at his home. She did so, and
was about to start to her mother, when
Botha appeared, enraged at not find
ing her in the shack where he had left
her, and shot her dead, then shot Tib-
belts.
At no time until long after the trial
was there any suggestion against the
good name and wifely fidelity Of Mrs,
Botha. Even now the scandalous and
slanderous allegation of undue intimacy
between her and Tibbetts are mere tat.
tie that would not stand the test as evi-
dence In competent court for min
ute, A single and uncertain affidavit
is the only thing that is brought for
ward in support Of the assault upon
her good name. Surely something more
than this ought to be required in order
to Justify the Board of Pardons in
granting further clemency in this case,
a clemency that would be at once mis-
placed rs to him and manifestly un-
just.
There is generally too much senti-
mentality in the consideration of Grim
inal cases; gush and twaddle are never
absent in capital cases; too often they
overbalancc sound judgment and due
regard for the law; there has been too
much Of these extraneous irrelevances
in the Botha case. 1t is time the senti-
ment gush were shut Off and that the
sway of the law resumed its even and
proper course.
