LANCASTER, MAY 0, 1885. .1 list Ice for the Mormons. y The Mormons, excited by the recent COH- sj& .- victlens of sorae or tueir leaning men ler I JJ: polygamy, nave fermuiateu a " ueciiiratien l--3g:-"-tef grievances" and uttered "a pretest te the president ana peeple or. tne unitea States." As a large community, constitu ting the bulk of the peeple eC one territory, with all the requirements te be established -fvv&Jnte a commonwealth, and presenting a ijkl iiecerd of peace, thrift and order that be- citizenship, they are entitled te respectful and earnest consideration. ' Se much of their address as makes an apology for or defense or polygamy as a religious institution.decs net strengthen it. "This feature of it will find no popular favor. 'j 'aS'Jsj.iThe claim that plural inarrlage is a princi- -4eW? P10 el lneir religion (iecs net iieip ineir f Jihfi-r case. The laws of the United States de religious principles, but they de take cog nizance of his social practices.; the com men sense of a Christian civilization nnd the law of every state in the Union con cen demu andpunish polygamy. The peo ple of this country will net have it ; if any state permitted it there would be agitation in every ether until a constitutional amend went weie adopted-forbidding it anywhere. The Moimeus may as well take notice of this condition of public sentiment. "We remember that it has been argued by eminent authorities, .Tudge Mack among them, that Congress has no con stitutional right te legislate en such latters for the territories any mero than the states ; that the territorial legisla- have the supreme numdm make ing their -lTencerns, orterui government is com pelled te treat this offense of polygamy as it treats ethers in the states and territories that is, leave it " te be dealt with by the powers that are ordained of Ged, or by Ged himself, who will in due lime become the minister of Ids own justice." It must be admitted that a strict construction of the constitution favewthis view. It Is difllcult te find in the express grants of that in strument the powers which Congress has exercised in the regulation of Utah. Nei ls it certain that the weapons of the true gospel and the aggressions of a higher civilization will net make mera headway against polygamy than federal laws, legal processes or bayonets. Hut for all this, the supieme court has decided in favor of the right of Congress te legislate for the territories ; and as Judge Matthews puts it, " no legWlatien can be supposed mere wholesome and necessary in forming a free, self-feverning commonwealth, fit te take rank as one of the co-ordinate states of the Union, tlian that which seeks te establish it en a basis of the idea of the family, as consisting in and springing from the union for life of ene man and oue woman in the holy estate of matrimony." That is the voice of the law, as construed by our liigliesL jurisdiction, and the Mormons are foolish te kick against the pricks. This much conceded, however, te the opponents of the Mormons, they have no right te mere than their pound of llcsh. It is net gainsaid that the Mormons aie "sober, honest, peaceable, upright and charitable ;" that they are " singularly free from the crimes forbidden in the deca deca eogue, and net at all addicted te the vulgar vices which se often defile the character of frontier communities ; their territorial government has bcini conducted with sur prising purity, wisdom and justice;" tlieie la among the Mormons in Utah " no cheat tng at elections, no official defalcations, no special taxes nnd net a dollar of public debt;" drunkenness nnd larceny are noth neth inglike as rife as in Philadelphia, prostitu tion is far mero uncommon than in llosteu1, and polygamy is net nearly se frequent in Salt Lake City as adulteiy is in New Yerk, and scaicely mero llagrant. The exem plary industry and thrift of the Mennen 'community me a pattern for peeple every where. Granted therefore the right of the fed- Mai government te prohibit and punish polygamy ,the Mormons have an equal right te demand that the justice measuied out te iHnTI)0nie(tI,'n-nllither citizens, and that likesecial offenses in the ether teni teni teries and among the Gentiles of their own be prosecuted with the same vigor. They have a right te demand that clean men be sent there te administer the laws and hon est juries be selected te try their eases ; and that none of their fellowship shall be the Yctmi3 r the ex pest fticte laws con cen demned by the constitution. Nay, mere ; the Mormons have aright te .demand that these who outcry against in the East shall be consistent nnd ItU as fiery tengue and seek the law's ment with as much vigor here t the same crimes that they say tali a plague spot and Mormonism in relic" of baibarism. Ill hardly lw contended that it is oxieus te have two wives in Utah haveawifeand a mistress in Con Cen t : or that polygamy in Salt Lake mere destructive of geed morals than tutlen In Washington. One wrong t excuse or palliate the ether: but the volce of dlvlne wisdom, as well divine justice, that pronounced tlinn guides which strain nt a gnat and w a camel."

'Justice in Utahbut Justice In every ether t, -v - Ki ' ,-J ' jurisdiction. A Wrongly Abusctl Jury. Short, who stabbed Phclnn,wns convicted by the newspapers at once. All the ac counts of all the reporters represented it as a cold-blooded attempt te murder. The jury that tried Short, however, acquitted him, and the testimony printed in the New Yerk papera as it was presented bef ere them justified their verdict, for it showed that Plielan wns the aggressor nnd had un dertaken te kill Short, but Short get ahead of him. It is true this testimony for the defense may have been false. Hut se may Phelan's ; in fnct,testhneny was introduced te show that he was net worthy of belief under oath. Hut new the New Yerk journals, which vret the story se wrong when they under took te report It, arc very much excited about the verdict. The prosecuting efil ccrs and the judgonre also enraged. The latter discharged the jury, telling them he had no further use in his court for such jurymen. Some judges have a habit of thus testifying their disgust with juries ; they generally are judges with whom the peeple have cause te be disgusted, beiii2 of the long-eared variety. In this case, It wns very unfair treatment of the jury, who could net have rendered any ether verdict than they did under the testi mony, which, if it was worthy of belief, cle irly proved that Phelan attacked Short, and that the latter used the knife in his own defense. It was even shown that Shei t ran away from Phelan. The original story was that he followed Plielan down the stairs from Hessa's office, stabbing him at every step. The suspicion is that the prosecution felt he sure of convicting their man, that they were net ready te meet the well pic paied case of the defense. Hut that should net justify abuse of the jury, who had te try the case en the ovidence laid befoie them. And they are entitled te credit for divesting themselves of their newspaper preconceptions and deciding upon the sworn testimony. Fryc's Atlut-k en the President. At last one statesman has mustered up enough eeurag te dissent from the general conclusion that I'icsident Cleveland's ad ministration deserves credit for decency and its devotion te the interests of the country. And who is tills person V It is "William Pitt Fie, United States senator from tlie .state of Maine. This man, who has been for many years a political valet te James G. Hlalne, new says that the presi dent has done nothing deserving of com mendation, and Uilksglibly of interposing his puny self in the Senate te question the right of the executive in the nomination of men te fill the federal elliees, During nearly twenty jears of Prye's public life no measure has been se bad that it has net been able te command his sup port, If it was supposed te favor his party. Ne man, however disieputable, has ex terted from this senator a word of disap proval It he Would consent te use his office for party purposes, or te help along the candidacy of his political master, or te enrich some personal friend. He has been the familiar, the eulogist and the tool of "William E. Chandler In whatever this thrifty person has undertaken, whether it was stealing the electoral vete of a .state or trading in depaitment secrets. It H fitting that such a man should con demn the administration. If he had said a single geed word for it, the country would have had the right te conclude that the president had ceased tube a patriot and an honest citizen. If he shall only carry the light into the Senate it will de much te strengthen the hands of the president and will promote the eaily repeal of the mon strosity known as the tenure-of-efiico law. Everything censideied, the Demo cratic party has every leasen te congratu late itself upon the fact that its President has incurred the bitter opposition of "W. P. Fryc. If te him be added Geerge V. Hear, and Henry L. Dawes, its chances for enjoying permanent, jKiwer will be greatly increased. Gov. l'ATTisexhas vetoed the bill grant ing free burial anil a hcadhtene te every dead soldier, whose estate cannot pay for it, at a cost of fifty dollars te the county. It is a very creditable veto, indeed. The soldiers have leen well provided for. We need net invite, by free burial and monu ments, all the soldier tramps in the country te pour into the state te sanctify its soil with their bones. The governor sug gests that the author of the bill might have had the prudence at least te ex cept from the previsions the ex-soldiers who died in jail orentho gallows. A mon ument te these would hardly seem advisa ble even te a Grand Army man. Thk epidemic of efllcinl resignation U nearly as provident and ns mysterious as the Plymouth fever.

The ollice Is oue of theso u so se less bureaus which has bcensaddled upon the federal government during the years when it lias been thought dosirable te con centrate everything in Washington. Kateu was n very suitable man for such a purpose. He was weak and could be put te whatover use designing men might see fit. Hut while Congress could crcate such an ollice it could notgive It power pr even work.

UNWAHItANTlIll AND I'llUrOSTUIIOUS. This bill Is a rcmarkable exhibition et the unwarranted and preposterous extent te which a most taudable and patriotic senti ment may be carried. Thatprinciple which Induces governments te pension nnd pro pre pre vieo for injured and destitute soldiers is rounded in wise jKillcy as well as dictated by a spirit or liberal humanity. The United States and our own commonwealth have carried this principle Inte their laws with no niggard hand. Thoughtful patriots have net hesitated te say that all has been dene in this direction that the most generous and grateful of governments ought te de consis tently with common prudence and wise public policy, and that the limit has lieen reached beyond which liberality will lecome oxtravnganceand benovelenoo breed abuse The bill herewith returned is a striking firoef oflhe justice efKiicli warnings, nnd an lliistratlen or the thoughtlessness and credulity that may characterize legislation enacted .under the pressure or misguided charity. Hy this bill any man who fought in the United States iirmy in any war. and who dies In any county or the state without leaving sufficient means for his burial, imme diately becomes n charge U)en that county for his burial te the amount of ?M). He may never have had a residence- in the county ; lie may even never have been n citizen of the state ; he may net have been wounded or become diseased or disabled In the public scrvlce; he may dle as the result of his vices or his crimes, by accident, or by his own hand, he may hae enjoyed and wasted the nemiiy ei me leucnu government or ei me state ler ears; he may die in the perpetra tion of a releny, or be a criminal Hoeing the Justice of nnethcr jurisdiction ; but, no matter who he is or what clse he has been, if he served in the army or navy or the United States in any war and dies destitute in any county, that county must bury him nt an oxpense et J33, and erect a hcadstone ever lilt grave at a cost or $13. A destitute ieIdicr or the Mexican war, who enlisted from the state or New Jersey, and who all his Ilfe has been n resi dent of that state, may go Inte Philadelphia nnd die thore or ene from the state of New Yerk may wander into and dle in any coun ty en our northern border, and in each case the county In which the soldier dies becomes nauie ler un expenditure or 5SU ler ms uurlal. And se or destitute soldiers coming into our commonwealth from nny ether stnte no matter hew they ceme or what caused their destitution, se that they get into our state and die there, this bill operates te charge the counties, which may le se unfortunate as te be the places or their death, with the cost of their burial. Could suiy bill be mero void or intelligent principle, or based upon se little reason? Ne guard or any kind Is provided te protect the coun ties from Imposition, nnd no account what what what oeor is taken or nny or the many circum stances that in the most liberal pension laws that wero evor enacted are alwavsmadcan indlspcnable condition rer the enjoyment or their bounty. It Is impossible te concclve or any reason why u soldier who was never credited te Pennsylvania : who nover re flected any honor upon hcrnrms; who nevcr contributed by industry, citizenship or oth erwise te her prosperity, should by the mere accident or death within her borders, be en titled, no matter what his If f e or character have been, te the burial this bill provides at the oxcnse of oneot thoceuntlcs. The lowly eiuzen ei our state, wne, ineugn net a soldier, lias spent all his life within our common wealth, supporting her institutions and de- leuuing ner reputation uy virtue, beuriety and industry, and who. threuch misfortune. dies a pauper, can claim no such prlvilege as mm Din gives indiscriminately te me gran gers of whatover character, lie must rcceive u pauper's burial. It Is quite pessible te con ceive, if this bill should beceme a law, that neighboring states might rapidly be relieved or much or their unproductive soldier popu lation te the marked Increase of that class in our own state. KLAIIOItATII MAL'IIINI'IIV. The machinery provided by the bill for carrying out its previsions also calls ler no tice. It authorizes and makes it the duty of tlie commissioners te appoint nu Indollnite number or persons in every ward and town ship or the state who are te be the elliccrs having in clmrge the burials In their respec tive wards and townships. This means the creation of many hundreds possibly thous ands efllclals ; and while the bill provides that they shall serve without compensation, yotexporionco shows that official duties in variably entail official oxpense, and it is net prebable that these official functionaries would be any oxceptlon te the rule. Apart from this, hewever, it is always an objection when legislation creates an undue number of oftlcers, which this bill undoubtedly docs. It may well be questioned, nlse, whether tlie previsions of this moasure fall within the scepe or tlie legislative power. It will be observed that it docs net appropriate the meney or the state, but nttempta te direct the bounty or the counties. It commands that certain political sub-divisions or the state shall perform certain charitable nets net Senerally, as in establishing a poerhouso or 10 like, which is an oxerciso of the con oral police pewer et the state but especially, In n special manner, with roreronco te a special class, and at a special dcfinile cost. Without new deciding the question, the executive would suggest that the bill requires con cen con siderablo stretch oflcglslatlve pewer tejiistlfy Its principle. HenisnT li Pattison. lay 8, 1885.
