The District Attorneyship.
Tn difficulty in the Republican party of
Philadelphia, over the nomination for the
Distriot Attorneyship, has at last been satis
factorily settled. Both Mr. William B. Mann
and Mr. Isaao Hazlehurst withdraw from the
field, and the Convention will reassemble in
S short time to nominate a candidate on
trhom all can unite. Mr. Mann's letter de
clining to be a candidate reads as follows:
Philadelphia. July 16, lSiiS.
To William 71. Leeds, AVy., chairman City lie.
ublicun Committee:
Drau wik:'i cteo 1 ie the nomination con
feried on tne by tne Distrlot Attorney Conven
tion, nud In doing no 1 cannot forbear express
log my profound aent-e of gratitude to the K
publlosus of 1'hllndulpblA, who have honored
we with their support In a canvass concluded
With unexampled tutterness against me.
With earnest solicitude tor me success of the
Republican prlv In our city. State, and natlou,
I am, Very truly yours,
Wm. B. Mans.
As soon as Mr. Mann's declination has been
considered and accepted by the City Executive
Committee, which meets for that purpose this
afternoon, Mr. Hazlehurst will likewise with
draw, and the field will be a olear one.
We sincerely congratulate our readers on
the happy termination to a division which
threatened to endanger the success of our
entire ticket. The history of this division
ia too well known to need repetition.
Mr. Mann, after holdiDg the office for fifteen
years, succeeded in getting a majority of
the delegates to the Convention pledged
to him. The opponents of the "ring," Hading
that they were beiog unjustly treated, and
that no fairness could be secured so long as
Mr. Mann was before the Convention, with
drew previous to the nomination, and plaoed
in the field Mr. Isaac Hazlehurst. Conse
quently two Republican nominees were before
the people, and certain defeat of both must
follow. There was but one course left for Mr.
Mann to pursue with honor, that was to with
draw. Mr. Hazlehurst accepted the nomina
tion only beoause he desired to aid the cause
of reform, and while no worthier man for the
post could be found, yet we deem that he will
act wisely in following the example of Mr.
Maun.
No small amount of crtdit will belong to
each of these gentlemen for anting in this
manner. Mr. Mann, by whatever question
able means he secured it, had the regular
nomination of the party. He went to great
expense to secure it. Whatever may be the
grounds, and however potent the reasons for
a withdrawal, under such circumstances, all
must give him credit for proving himself not
an ingrate to the party. He has removed
himself from being an obstacle, and feeling as
We do no personal opposition to him, we most
cheerfully aocord him credit for his actions.
Of Mr. Hazlehurst's course throughout, we
cannot speak too highly. Aooepting in the
faoe ef denunciation and threats, and nomi
nated solely to aid reform, he deserves great
praise both for his oourage and his devotion to
principle. He has no personal ambition to
subserve. He stood only to purify and elevate
a oonrt of justice, and the moment that Mr.
Mann expressed a willingness to withdraw he.
assents cheerfully. By such a course he will
prove himself a public-spirited citizen, and
add yet more to the general confidence felt
in his integrity.
To the Convention, when it meets once
more, there are but a few words necessary to be
Said. Let the choice be a good one. There
are a dozen gentlemen, well known Republi
can members of the bar, who would adorn the
place of District Attorney, and for whom
every Republican could with satisfaction vote.
Let one of these be selected. But let it be renum
bered that the strongest man on the Democratic
ticket is their nominee for that office, and we
must have one who in the public confidence
he can command, will prove equally strong
with Mr. Furman Sbeppard. If such a one is
seleoted, with a united ticket, strong in every
point, we have an undoubted assurance of a
well-deserved viotory.
More Emigrants for Utah.
Tub arrival of a cargo of emigrants, destined
for Utah, embracing several hundred new con
verts to the Mormon faith, a large proportion
of whom are women, has recently been an
nounced. Continued success is apparently
crowning the efforts of Brigham Young to
Secure proselytes in foreign countries, and the
fearhaa been expressed that, while the nation
Is cherishing the belief that Mormonism, with
Us "twin relio of barbarism," would soon
be extinguished, it may in reality be growing
stronger, and more defiant jthan ever. Theemis
sarels sent forth to distant lands undoubtedly
continue to work zealously, and being usually
chosen with speolal reference to fitness for
their vocation, It Is not singular, despite the
monstrosities of their creed, that they suoceed
In deluding a considerable number of Igno
rant persons. Throwing out of view their
pretended form of religion, which is only a
convenient cloak of ulterior designs, they be
come in reality emigrant agents promising to
the down-trodden victims of huropean civil
ization, that they can find a sure relief from
the discomforts and oppressions of their
native homes in a garden spot iu
the wilds of America, which is al
leged to possess all the charms of a terres
trial paradise. When we consider how many
J?wia annual! j&ig raw to tui- oLed with
out suoh invitation., it is not specially won- 4
derful that adroit agents, in proffering them,
find persons who, in their desperation or Igno
ranee, are willing to aooept assistance and
guidance to a land of promise as a compensa
tion for whatever they may be called upon to
profess or practioe as followers of Mormonism
Instances are not rare, even in this oountry,
where men possessed of some wealth,
and of an average share of general
information have been duped by skilful Mor
mon impostors, and it is a much easier task to
impose upon the benighted citizens of foreign
countries who have never heard of the organi
zation presumptuously and lliaphemousl.v
claiming to be Latter-Day Saints, except
through the false and flattering representa
tions of their accredited'agents. One of . the
worst charges made against the Mormons I1
that in the early days of their settlement at
Salt Lake they induced persons to cross the
Plains without sufficient facilities for this long
and toilsome journey, and that in these so
called handcart migrations many perished by
the wayside from hunger, exhaustion, and
fatigue. No recent instanoes of similar suffer
legs have been reported, and it is probable
that the emigrants now enticed to this coun
try are, as a rule, subjected to as few physical
inconveniences as possible.
The census returns of 18150 stated the white
population of Utah at that thus to be 40,211
of whom 12,754, or a little less than one-third
were of foreign birth. Of these foreign emi
grants, 1824 had come from Denmark, 7084
from England, 278 from Ireland, G47 from
British Amerioa, 159 from Norway, 1223 from
Scotland, 19u' from Sweden, and "45 from
Walef. Of the 27,490 American Mormons,
15,908 are reported to have been born in the
Territories, and they were evidently nearly
all children; for more than half the popula
tion of Utah consisted of minors less than
twenty years of age. It is probable that at
least one-half of the adult Mormons of
1SG0 were of foreign birth, and that at
present a still larger proportion of Brig
ham Young's subjects are of foreign origin.
These statistics possess significance for
various reasons. When William II-p-worth
Dixon wrote his book about Nw
America he intimated that the demoralizing
features of Mormonism found a congenial soil
in this oountry, but an English critic has an
swered his accusation by pointing to the fact
that, while new Mrmon converts are rarely
made in the United States, an abundanoe of
dupes are easily found In the United Kingdom,
and the statistics of 1800 sustain this theory.
Since that period England, Wales, and Soot
land have continued to be favorite recruiting
grounds of Brigham Young's emissaries. The
constant introduction of this foreign element
is one of the main causes of the perpetuation
of the power of the Mormon hlerarohy. Citi
zens born and bred on our soil iustinotively
revolt against every form of antiquated oppres
sion, and although they may for a time ba
restrained by old traditions and long-established
tyrannies, they never fail in the
end to infuse into all the organizations
with which they are identified the free
spirit of republican Institutions. Brigham
Young may retain a portion of his present
ascendency daring his lifetime, out it is
scarely possible that he will be able to trans
mit similar powers to his successors or his
descendants. Many agencies are quietly but
surely at work to undermine his superstruc
ture. A portion of the original Mormon
Church has already seceded under the leader
ship of a son of the first Prophet, Joe Smith.
There are elements of further discord and dis
sension ready to spring forth into vigorous
action at the first sign of the decay of Brig
ham Young's influence or to aBsert rival olain s
for domination as soon as his mortal career
closed. There is besides, now at Salt Lake, a
strong party of Gentiles ready to welcome and
protect any recusant from the Mormon faith,
and determined to maintain a steady war
fare against its monopolizing tendencies
and its monstrosities until they are
overthrown. The better sense and judgment
of the young native Mormons as they grow up
to manhood and womanhood, instinctively re
volt against polygamy, and sooner or later
they will combine to overthrow it. The
division of the sexes in Utah in 1800 was as
follows: Males, 20,178, females, 19,947, and
jf a similar proportion Is maintained, it will be
impossible to perpetuate polygamy by popular
consent, for obvious reasons, especially if, as
is probable, a large male population is at
tracted to Utah by the development of her
mining interests.
With all their vagaries and absurdities, the
MoiruoDS Lave displayed a degree of industry
and ingenuity in developing and beautifying
their territory, which deserves no little praise.
They have ensured for themselves a fair mea
sure of material prosperity despite their ob
noxious opinions, and their labors have served
the useful purpose of demonstrating that
proper efforts will make even the most un
promising of the Western wlds of the oountry
"bloom and blossom like the rose."
Strikes.
All attempts to regulate the laws of supply
and demand by artificial means have ever
proved failures. We may make rules that a
man belonging to an association shall work
only for so many hours, and so much a day
but if the supply of workmen in any particu
lar line should exceed the demand, such regu
lations must necessarily prove nugatory. This
has repeatedly been shown in the attempted
regulation of other matters than labor. Specu
lations in wheat, corn, gold, etc., have proved
over and over again the working of nature's
unerring laws. If the market is bare of labor,
merchandize, gold, etc, full prloes can be
commanded; if overstocked, they must soon
bink to the corresponding condition of the
market.
The strike of the workmen yesterday at the
Gas Works affords 'us an opportunity of
Llicflj &Hudl tO lfi fc'Jy or SUppOaLliT tlUt
the laws of trade can be osprloiously set asld-.
Whatever may be the management of the Gas
Woiks, whether they be financially considered
well or ill managed, 'a notbir.g to do with the
right which the Trustees and everybody else has
of making such contracts as may be deemed
most advantageous. We do not blame work
ingmen for Beeking to obtain more wages, if
they think themselves ill paid. Any man has
the right to get all he can for his labor, espe
cially now when rents and the cost of living
are so very high. If the workmen at the Gas
Works had done only this, there would have
been nothing particularly reprehensible in
their conduct, although the risk of
leaving the city in darkness would have
canted great inconvenience and pecuniary loss.
Yet this would not have been near so unjusti
fiable as their arbitrary conduct iu endeavor
ing to prevent other men from taking their
place", if such persons were willing to work
for the old wages. There can be no justifica
tion for this, and no greater mistake could be
committed than to suppose that the sym
pathies of our citizens are with the authors of
such interference. Let each man make his
own bargains, obtain all he can, but let his
neighbor have the same privilege. This is
nothing more than common justice.
Kdccationai.. We print to-day, on our
sixth page, the "Master's Oration," delivered
by the Rev. Robert E. Thompson, at the late
Commencement of the Universl'y of Pennsyl
vania. The oration does credit to Mr. Thomp
son, who, we understand, has been appointed
a Junior member of the University Faculty,
and is a complete argument in favor of the
literal education afforded by the institution.
