The Mormons and Their Fnltli.
A disinterested mid Intelligent EiirIIbIi
gentleman, traveling- in tlila country,
who contributes some account of ti la
experience te tlie Ifinttccnth Cen
tury, was very forcibly Impressed with a
community which he found entliu west
ern sidu of the continent. Its capital
city was tlie most attractive of tlie
places of Its bIm Hint he had seen rows
of bIiiuIq trees beautllled tlie streets and
a clear stream of water, passing through
Its gutters continually, kept thorn purl
fled. In every hamlet tlie church and
school house peeped through tlie folinge
of clustered shade trees and orchards.
Naturally sterile soil had been reclaimed
by an extensive system of Irrigation, es
tablished by patient industry, until it
had Increased in value from $1! te $100
per acre. It ill reads and telegraph lines
had been built; manufactures estab
lished and ten thousand laud holdings
bloomed with all the signs of agricultu
ral Industry, thrift and neatness. With
a single exception its religious doctrines
were these- of the New Testament and
that exception was the sanction and tel
eranceef ademestlu Institution borrowed
from Abraham, Solemon and ether
J patriarchs of the chosen puople of Oml.
f The community is an enlarged family
bound together by privileges and duties,
eue of the principal obligations being te
care for the helpless and needy. At the
Bime time individual freedom of action
is allowed, and some of the meat pros
porous merchants in the community am
apostates from tlie prevailing faith.
Tithlngs of their increase in property
are given by the people- te religious pur
poses. Less than a third of this popula
tion are foreign Ixirn.
A state constitution, adopted by the
peeple of this community seeking admls
alen te the union, provides for relig
ious and civil liberty, impartial public
Jucatlen and equal elitical rights,
regardless of sex. The taxes are lighter
than in auy ether state or territory and
the public debt smaller. In their social
life the peeple are temperate, peaceable
aud industrious ; saloons, haunts of vice
and social evils are rare ami are mostly
established and kept up by outsiders ;
the pauper and criminal statistics show
a state of public morals superior te that
of almost auy ether part of the country ;
the educational system exhibits better
rejults than the average of public school
operatleii3, and altogether, this English
traveler aud writer says : " 1 went te
Utah prejudiced against tlie Mormons
but, after seeing and Investigating for
myself, I came te the conclusion that,
apart from polygamy, there is much in
the Mermen organization te admire aud
respect, and that the Mormons are the
subjects of a greater ameunt1 of misrep
resentation aud unjust abuse than any
ether community with which I am ac
uuainted."
It is notable that this is the rt'iert
and the conclusion of nearly every un
biased investigator into the actual con
ditien of tlie Mermen community ; anti
p.Vhy toward it abates as one gets nearer
te it; and in view of all that can be sa.tl
iu its favor, it is a grave question
whether the drastic political measures'
roiesed from tlrue te time qg-thn ex
termination of thejraechjy7'tii cuine
SMiMrc.TSr civil rights and the spelia
tien of the property of thte people,afford
the best way te suppress peljgainy.
The oppression and injustice which
excite their fanaticism or app.ul te
the sympathy of the public for them
will only strengtheu the Moimeus
There are inauy reasons why, as they
became less isolated, the moral pressute
from the eutsidu and the assertion of
their rights by the women themselves
who have- votes and perfect freedom and
woman's nature will abeIHi polygamy.
The neu polyaineus Mermins are al
ready largely in the majority ; they must
remain se, seeing that there isl.ilivaya a
preponderance of males among them ;
polygamy was net an original article of
their creed aud it Is net likely te remain
such. Tlie vice can be cured tneiu el'
fectually, we sincerely believe, than by
delivering a whole community te Hie
und sword or political pluudeiei i
The Congressional Conference,
The Democratic congressmen have
determined that a bill should be passed
at this session " for tlie reduction of
duties and war tariil taxes." Que hun
dred and fifteen members voted for this
resolution and ilfty seven against it, se
that two things seem te be settled; llrst,
that tlie tariff shall be amended, and
second, that is shall net bu amended
by the Morrison bill, The Ilfty seven
congressmen who voted against the
present agitation of the tariff question
may reasonably bu expected te vote
against the Morrison bill in its present
shape. It may be capable of such
amendment as te win for it their sup sup
pert.but this will probably be ,iu amend
ment that will amount te a legonern legenern legonern
tien. xiie resun ei uie caucus is net of
any great importance. After the Intro
duction of the Morrison bill, and the
discussion it lias caused, it became nee
essary te meet tlie tariff question, and
the only way in which the Democratic
party can meet it ii by the allirmatlen
of lis desire te establish free trade when
aud whenever it can be done without In-
Jury te established luterests. The caucus
then resolving te pass a bill of some kind
te reform the tariff did nothing of start
ling Impert. These who voted against
the motion did se because they thought
that the tariff Isaue should net be the
prominent ene in the coming political
eauvass. Hut It would liave had te be
treated by the Democratic convention
and debated befere the people whatever
Congress might have done.
The fortunale result of the caucus
was te show the geed feeling prevailing
among the Democratic congressmen,
and te refute the many allegations of
their bloody feelings toward each ether.
They are nil for harmony, evidently.
Walsh, the witness in the Star itoute
cases whom the Springer committee Is
in qeareli of, writes te it that he will ap
pear befere It provided he is protected
from a subpiena In the Kellogg and
Uraily Star Itoute cases. In these he
says he will net testify while Geerge
Illlsa is counsel ter tlie government.
Uliss, hesays, will sell the government
out. This is also the belief of ether
persons conversant with the Inner his
lery of these trials. Uliss Is Arthur's
friend aud Kellogg's friend. He re
ceived his appointment, it Is believed,
that he might secure the escape of the
criminals he was nominally set te catch.

It become necessary te say whom bu

"Mamie, 1 guess I'll go up stairs aud he

She. faced him us he entered, but undo

probably the leaded revolver iu his Kicket
at the time te make the slaughter certain.
Wheimhe looked him imhe eye, therefore,
he wasdrivente thosubterfiigeor prolend

withdraw te wait for a better epimrtuuity
te get her at a eomplelo disadvantage-.
Presently he returned from the freut room
and walked out through the kitchen deer
again into tlie paved yaid at the side of
the heuse aud Mrs. Udey said nothing
te him'nnd evidently expected nothing.
In the kitchen with her was u colored
woman named Jesephine Davis, who for
yeats has done the laundry work rer the
family. Mis. Hdey was talking cheer
fully te the laundress aud had just ap
proached a towel, which hung alongside
the kiteheu deer, te wipe her hands wheu
the deer again opened aud Kiley entered.
He moved as though te pats ou into the
front room, but ueting that she had her
back towards him and was talking te the
colored woman he suddenly turned and
drew a revolver from his jmcket as he did
se. Without u word aud before either of
the women could comprehend the danger
he tired two shots, holding the weapon se
close te her that he could net fail te
Mound. The pe r victim shrieked as she
roll the bullets tear their way through her
body aud turning dashed past him into
the side yaid, prolonging the ncieams as
she ran. He followed and overtook her
before bhe had gene ten yards, iirmg three
mero shots while traversing that space.
Twe of these thtoe struck her and she
sank te the ground, her screams ccusiug.
Satlsllcd that he had killed her, he
turned aud deliberately walked lute the
kiteheu, past tl.r colored woman, who
was transfixed with horror, jussing
through the dining room into the parlor,
wheie he was lest te her view, and in
another second the sjiind of another shot

The caucus or Democratic niombeis of
the Heuse or Heptesentatives ou the tarlll
bill met at eight o'clock last evening. The
attendance was veiy large, theie being
only ten members absent, and they en ae
count of sickness or detention lieiu the
city.
Mr. Morrison stated the object et the
caucus. Hv said It was for the purpose of
coming te mi understanding, if possible,
ou tarlll legislation. Democratic members
or the ways mid means committee who
believed iu a teduotieii of the war tm 111'
had pieseuted u tucasitte en which they
desiied te have au expression or opinion
or Democratic ineintieis of the Heuse, It
li.nl been announced lu the piers, he said,
that these who were net successful iu
controlling the oigaui.atleii of the Heuso
or Itepreseutatlves would oppose auy
lueasuie let icdiiciug war taxes ou the
discussion of such iiumsiiie by this Cen
gtess.
He staled that the war taxes del tved from
internal leieuue. which at oae lime ielded
thu government; 100,000,000 a )ear, had
been from time te tune reduced, until only
the leveuuu ou tobacco, malt liquors an, I
distilled spirits remained. He said he did
net believe iu nuv further l eductien of the
internal leveuue as a matter of principle,
but as a Democrat, desiring the harmony
or his parly, mid ler the sake et harmeuU
ing the ceullictlug views, he would ngtee
te repeal the tobiceo tax mid te reduce
the tax ou brandy distilled from Iruits,
ptevided such repeal could be had in con
ucutieu with Hie reduction of customs
duties.
Fer the purpise of testing the sense of
the eaiicus Mr. .Morrison said that he
would eiler a lesolutien, which he did, in
elTect providing that the ways and means
committee's bill should be taken up, nud
that, after a reasonable time for discus discus
sieu, " a bill'' should be passed.
A long discussion followed the elleriug
of thu resolution, which was pmticipatcd
iu by Messrs Morrison, Eaten, Converse,
Blnckburu, Kiudall, Hepkins, King,
Merse, labell, lteagau, llesecraus, 'fully,
O'Nell (Me ), MacAdoe. Wdsen (W. Va )
Warren, Deisheimer, Hutchius, llelman,
Nichells, Hatdemau, Beach, Spriggs
(N. Y.), Adams (N. Y ), aud Bland.
Mr. Randall britlly counseled modern
lien and conciliation, aud suggested uu
excited conference, with a view of agreeing
upon some bill upon which all the Deme
eratic members could vote a bill that
would provide rer a moderate reduction or
customs duties, mid at the same tune rer
a partial ted notion or tuterual revenue
taxation.
As te making a tarlll bill a subject or
caucus action, m the sense of controlling
members' votes, he said it was contrary te
Democratic principles and contrary te the
principles of representative goverumeut te
attempt te biud auy oue ou a great
economic )iicstieii and thus seek te com
pel a representative te veto against the
known epIniuiiB aud iuteicsts et his con
stituents. Mr. Carlisle said he was desirousef hav
ing the caucus ceme te some agreement,
if possible, en the reduction or the tariil".
Iu order te de pe aud te secure such re
duotieu he would agree te a repeal or the
tobacco tax aud all licenses couueeted
with the sale eT tobicce and a reduction of
taxes ou brandy distilled from fruits te
ten cents a gallon.
Mr. Hepkius offered au amendment te
the ctlect that the actieu el the caucus
should uet be binding upon individual
members.
Mr. lteagau and Mr. llelman urged har
mony, aud opposed all efforts te bind the
members of the party by au action of the
caucus. Beth declared that the actieu or
fie caucus should be regarded as merely
persuasive.
Several members announced emphati
cilly that they were opposed te the Moi Mei Moi
riseu bill, but the predominating
sentiment was largely in favor of consider
lug the bill ami of agreeing te a measure
that would receive the sanction or the
Heuso.
Besides .Mr. Ilaudall, Messrs. Tully, or
Cahferuia, nud Eaten, of Connecticut,
opposed the measure.
Mr. King, el Louisiana, oileiod a reso rese
lutiju te the ell'ect that a committee, con
sistmg of seven members of the Heuse
aud six seu.iteis, be appointed te consider
and report at a future caucus en the
pending preposition. Thu lesolutien was
voted down.
Mr. .Morrison moved that Mi. Hepkins'
amendment bu muddied se as te provide
that the action of thu caucus should net bu
binding upon individuals except te such
an extent as each member might feel iu
lluenued by the wishes of n majority of
his associates.
This amendment was adopted. Hu thou
called thu previous ipiostieu upon the
Hepkins amendment as modilled, which
was carried by a vote of 111 te .19. The
resolution was then adopted by a yea anil
nay vote of 111 te 17.
The following is the resolution as
amended nnd adopted ;
lletelted, That the bill oemmouly known
as the Mornseu turill' bill shall bu takeu
up for consideration at thu earliest praeti
oable day, aud loaseuablo time for debate
allowed thereon ; and after such debate
that a bill be passed for the reduction of
duties and war tariff taxes.
" That the adoption of this resolution
shall net be oeuaidorod binding in con
trolling the individual notion of the Deme
crats, oxcept te the cxteut that each
member may feel that hu ought te he
inlluenced by the expression of opinion of
a majority of his associates."
Mr. Carlisle thou oliered the following
roselutlou, which was adopted by a vote
of 88 te 57 :
" Ileiehtd, That, in order te recouelio
conflicting opinions nud te secure legisla
tion rodueiug taxation, the plau for the
red notion of taxes at thu present session
of Cougreas shall em brace a prevision
