5 The Assembly has passed Mr.. Mar ),
tins bill providing that justices Of
the peace shall not have the right to
perform marriage ceremonies. There
were no dissenting votes, and it seems
probable that the, Senate will agree
to the bill when it reaches a vote
there. There is an army of these JUS
tices.e No, one. appears to know ex-
actly how many there are in this
State, but each township or ward with
1000 population has two; If there is
1000 population there are four JUS
tices and one for each 5000 popula-
ton above 1900.

Among the passengers who came up on the Northwestern from Cordova were Bert Skinner, Roy Hershberger, Ernest Amun- dscn and Parke Griswold. They were with Jim Wilson's outfit which made the trip to Fair banks.
