The language of the law is that "whenever a demand is matte in proper form it shall be the duty or tho Executive on whom it is made to make the surrender.

The only -14I1iable In regard to the titne of ing the demand is the word "whenever." It is frequently the ease that criminals are not apprehended for many years after their escape Into Other States. Delays have nothing to do with the matter. Nor IS there any pnovision that Governors of Other States in making demands on the Governor of New York in pursuance of constitutional rights must make their "excuses" for any "applications" they prPent It is to be noted further as matter of fact in trilSett Se that the delay complained of was less than three monthsnot an unreasonable leogth of time. Surely. in NVillEh to track a fugitive who had abseonded in secret half way across the continent and discover his place of refuge.

But whether the delay in making the requisition was remmliable or not, Cleveland had not a shadow of authority for using it as a pretext to defeat the ends of justice. i WORSE AND WORSE. But Cleveland's third reason for refucing the requisition is, it possible, the most extttiordi- nary of all and fully as original any of the I others: it doom Itr (toes not Obliged to Back Down from This Position, He DGel Not Serve the Papers.

4 nher requisitions havo been sent front Iowa to the Governor of New York in eases where the CritnillatS did not belong to wealthy and influential families and had no tneans of making an appeal to tho fellow-feeling that in other cases made the Governor WOndr01.18 kind. Ile granted these cases without a word of objection, and they furnish a comparison that is odious in the extreme. last April he granted a requisition sent from Iowa for a W(11111M, one Margaret Beineld. charged with adultery in Benton vounty in this State. The contrast with hiS ttv- thou in the Colgrove case shows the astoundiug difference the Governor of New York makes between the enSe of a woman charged with adultery ana the case of a IMIn chargod With the ruin of a woman under the prOitliSe of marriage.

An examinatiou of the eases shows that If the objections raised by Cleveland were worth anything at all and could possibly be sustained under the law t11e3- applied with greater force In the Lase of the woman than in that of the mean, feta yet Cleveland used them to screen the man while he surrendered the woman it Mau a whisper of ob2eetion, and she W113 taken out of the State inside of twenty-four hours. The plain truth is that both requisitions were In perfect form and should both have been grunted. liut in the WOITIIM'S case there was HI) desire to refuse a lawful demand, and hence no objections were raised for her protection. AN ENTItAMIDINAllY EXCUSE. One more point is needed to complete this extraordinary chapter.

Cleveland did intlettl back down from his first position in the Col-grove case anti did grant his warrant for the surrender of the fugitive, and hail he done this in good faith it might be claimed that he was guilty only of gross ignorance of his duties under the law, and that be tried to rectify the blunder after he had been instructed in the law and the duties of his nice. But the fact remains that although he did issue his warrant for the surrender of the fugitive it WitS never executed and the original pureese of the criminal was in feet thoroughly carried out. He issued his warrant, hut instead of causing the fugitive to be arrested and secured he permitted his warrant to main unserved although the fugitive was within easy reach for months. The excuse offered when the Governor of New York was driven Into the last ditch in his defense of the criminal, was that the fugitive was in too poor health to be removed to Iowa. It course the law does not admit an excuse that could be used in every ease for the protection of a criminal, and whether true or not in this ease it was a matter that concerned only the Iowa authorities, and the responsibility rested On them exclusively.

The duty of the Governor of New York Wte3 to cause the fugitive to be arrested and secured," and the responsibility for removing him to Iowa was a flatter that belonged to the Iowa officers exclusively. and they would have undertaken it without a moment's hesitation. Stripped of all its sham defenses Hits action taken in New York simply proves that although Cleveland was forced-to back down from his first position and issue the 1 warrant it was never intended that it FE10111(1 be executed, and the course followed in this instance shows how in any ease a criminal can be protected from the law when its execution is in the hands of men like Grover Cleveland. In the light of the proceedings on the second requisition it is impossible to defend Cleveland on the ground that he was hinorant of the law and guilty only of a blunder. The Governor has impaled himself on the other horn of the dilema.

WHAT IS THE REMEDY? Master and his followers did of old. What unmitigated bosh all this is. When one man goes outside the laws and commits a felony. and he is arrested and punished, that is not called perSecution, but justice. Is it any different when a hundred thousand go outside the laws and do that which is punhohed as a crime In every State of the Union, and which in any other civilized land under the sun would be punished by banishment, imprisonment.

and death? Mr. Caine has heard treason and defiance to the laws preached here daily for a quarter of a century. What Mormon has been persecuted for it? He knows that one out of every three or four Mormons that he meets on the street has a harem lull of deluded women. He knows that every week there are more plural marriages celebrated in the Endowment House than ever were before; he knows that this is not, only unlawful but beastly, and that it is involving innumerable wretches in toils whioh will in future cause intinit trouble and loss, but still he has not the courage to speak the truth to his people; rather he pats them on the back in their delusion and crime. and tells them though they are being persecuted they will triumph at last.

He wakes a preliminary talk, which gives Penrose the opportunity to close with a panegyric over the beauties of plural marriage, a defiance to the Government; an assertion that God has a right to rule and through his Saints will rule the whole earth. If that means anything it means that the Republic is to be overthrown and the despotism of the Mormon Church is to lay its paralyzing band upon the brains, hearts, and property of the people. And still these men talk about persecutions which they suffer. Persecutions! Was ever a Government so criminally derelict in its duty as is our own? COLORADO. Items.

Another Veteran Politician Wants Cleveland to Withdraw. Editor New York SunSta: Your coire. spondent, "A Veteran Observer," has set many Democrats to thinking in all this part of the country. It is not necessary to tell them that the prospects of success in the Presidential campaign are not bright, for tens of thousands feel that they are gloomy in the extreme. When Grover Cleveland was nominated at Chicago the hopes of a large body of Democratic voters faded away.

and they have not revived since. Indeed, why not admit the exact truth and say that a great mass of the best thinkers in the Democratic party believe that Clevelanffs election is among the impossibilities? This opinion is spreading, mid earriei with it sore discouragement. After bitter disappointments in past contestS Democrats were looking with confidence to the expulsion of the Republicans from power in the present campaign. But unless there can be a change In the situation. and right speedily too.

they will sink into indifference and let the battle take care of itself. What, then, can be done to prevent a Rennblican victory? Shall we rally under some third candidate and try to throw the election into the House? This would hardly meet the emergency. Can we get Mr. Cleveland to withdraw from the ticket and make way for a new candidate whom the Democrats will support? There is time enough for this. It is three months to the election.

A large majority of the voters in the country want to see the Republican party turned out. Let the Democrats present an acceptable candidate and these voters will elect him. NVill Mr. Cleveland look the facts in the face? AN OLD BARN-BIURNKR. THE RECORD.

At some point east of Pueblo we were told of a man who had made $2,000 a year from one acre raising melons. lie received 25 cents a melon on the ground, and his fruit was famous through a large part of the West.

The soil is sandy and gravelly, and yields abundantly of small fruits. Some of the strawberry-beds in this town, now full fruit. are most tempting sights. But fruit may well be said to be scarce, and is never cheap, in the Eastern sense. I remember hearing a friend say, who spent a Summer here several years ago, that air was the principal article of food at Colo-ratio Springs.

She might have included water as well. Tim springs at Manitou are six or seven in number, ot soda and iron, or a mixture of both, with some sulphur. One or two of them boil, from the effervescence produced by the carbonic acid gas, and all are deliciously cold, and to my taste delightful. These springs are beautifully and substantially surrounded, most of them under roof with seats. Manitou abounds in hotels and cottages for rent, and tents as well as cottages are pitelesti and perched along the mountain sides in the most unexpected way.

It is very charming and ideal. One very pretty rustic log cottage is pointed Out as Grace Greenwood's. It seems a pity that its owner should not have the leileity of always summering in it. A great deal of money has been expended at Manitou, which the public are free to enjoy. Just how so much hospitality and munificence can be afforded is not apparent.

A man whom we hired to drive us from Manitou to this place last evening said the season was very poor so far; that he had three carriages out all day, and we were the first to give him any patronage. He said that last year the demand for accommodation by the public could with difficulty be met. He attributed the tailing off this year to the heavy failures in the East. Manitou has a new bath-hluse, which Is very striking and pretty. The soda baths are highly recommended for rheumatism.

There is also a swimming tank in the house in which the water is clear as cyrstad. Both Manitou and the Springs abound in mineral shops, where native jewelry, beautiful agates, genuine Indian work. are sold, with photographs of all the remarkable spots. On the road between the two places there are very curious rock exposuresthe rock is red and in a disintegrating conditionwhich are called 6Gardens of the Gods." In one of the callons leading up into the mountains is a cave of winds, with stalactites and other formations to interest a geologist. Indeed.

the neighborhood is one affording great and varied interest. There is a college established here in which the department of mineralogy is naturally well patronized. The town has everything for the amusement and edification of the public, except saloons and gambling houses. These features of the Saratoga of the West have been left out. The town faces the mountains, and the effect of the air is such that in looking over the plain.

or mesa, lying between the town and the foot of the mountains the newcomer expects to see the sea. He lifts his eyes and beholds instead Pike's Peak and its neighborsCameron's Cone, Mount Garfield, Mount Rosa, and the beautiful Cheyenne Mountain. There are many English girls here now and English people. The Englishmen, who own ranches in this part of the United States, including New Mexico, find it convenient and to their tastes to establish a residence here. There is nothing here that smacks of business or of trade, except the small and inoffensive shops that supply the absolute needs of the population.

The place is supported by the money furnished by the invalid and tourist chiefly, and the main object in life here seems to be to have a good time. As to dress, it it is the most unconventional place possible. Everybody drives or rides. The ascent to the sumntit of Pike's Peak is now practicable, the trail being open so that by tramping through the snow for a mile or so the top way be reached. A railroad is in process of building, but it will probably be some time before sufficient money will be furnished tor its completion.

We are contemplating making the ascent on horseback, taking the shortest allot toll-gate gllehnictahnt eight miles from here being made by carriage.

The showing made loy 601-.

Sherman was so complete that CleVeland without another wont backed down from his leisition aad granted the requisition. Ile issued bis wurrant for the eurrender of the criminal, but instead of putting it In the hands of the Iowa gave it to a New Yoi (officer who never executee it or made any to ext-eute it. Thus, although Cleeelund leveed to back down from his first position, nod was subjected to the humiliation of being instructed in the law of hie own State toy the Governor of a distant Commonwealth. the primary and real purpose of screening the criminal in New York was aecomplished just as thortoughly as though Cleveland had persisted in refusing the warrant. In order tn understand the humiliating position in which the Governor of New York was plueed loy the Governor of this State it is only necessary to refer to the law and notice how perfectly it covers the facts in this ease.

The evtradition of fugitive criminals between the Stetee is not like that with foreign countries, and does, not depend upon treaties or State laws, hut is provided for in the Federal Constitution (Art. 4. Sec. 2), which eays that fugitives from justice shall on demand be surrendeed to be removed to the State havine jurisdietion of the crime. The proceediugs nod the proofs necessary to accomplish this purpose tire provided in see.

of the Revised Statutes of the United Steles. aVhenever the courts haVe considered this law they have held that it means simply that when a demand is made for a fugitive from justice, supported by it colleted copy Of an indictment or an ellidavit charging the person with crime lit the ether State, it ehallpoe the duty ot the Executive authority to cause the tugitive to he arrested Rod secured," awl then delivered to the agent of the other State. If Gov. Cleveland needed any judicial construction of the law it was certainly furnished lien in the decision of the Supreme Court of New York in the ease cited by Gov. Sherman, that of James Draper.

17 lime, tele thie and much more was furnished Gov. Cleveland in the ease under consideration. The case as it was preeented to Gov. Cleveland not only had all that the law required to sustain it, but it had two additional affidavits and the clul indorsement, of the District-Attorney. Now when tine ease, which District-Attorney Rene pronounced 0110 Or the strongest he had (e'er known, wits preeented to elrover Cleveland and he hail ettelled over it for four days he woes still unable to point, Out anything lacking in it that was required by law or to FiloW that it wits not his Immediate and imperative duty to grant the warrant.

Instead of this, he went outside the scope of his authority, and. without being able to cite any law or judicial decision to alipport him and witiemt asking the opinion of his Attorney-lleneral. proceeded to raise technical geojectione so weak and absurd that he diol not dare adhere to them when confronted by the decisione of the Supreme Court Of hiS oen State. rt.EVELAND.:4 arAsoNt4." Grover Cleveland'et retesting for refueing hie warrant might well excite the amazement Of it tsf1l5tahle or pollee ()Meer who ever had anything to the with nit extradition case. A third-rate lawyer might possibly he eupposed capable of showing tall ignorance of the law, but It is waltzing that such statements should come front a man who wits once it Sheriff and hence might be supposed to know something (of the law of extradition.

The reasons for refusing this requisition as given in an official letter hearing dale at the executive chambers at Aflame, Jan, 4, Ise, were in the following precise tvords: The evidence lit not sufficient evidence to show that he Is a I welt ice from justice. "9. There is not it sufficient eXellSe for the delay in presenting the application. "3. It dome not 'tepee'.

whether the criminal is a resident of this State or only traneiently here." A mometire examination will show the utter and buseitee abeureity of these reaSens, and to show that they came from it man grossly ignorant ot the law or willfully determined too violate it. Firet, take the pretense thet the eertitied copy of the information Charging the accused with crime in Iowa, together with the sworn evidenee that he was a fugitive front justice and had Leen found in New Yorkthat all this was not sufficient to show that he waa a fugitive front Justice." When the Governor set torth such reasons as this not hilig could he done tout refer him to the decisions of the Supreme Court showing that he win; attempting to lecereise a power denied even to the courts. Ile was accordingly called upon to read the decision of his 01Vrt Supreme Court in the ease of James Drnper (17 Hun. i9) the syllabus of which is as follows: "The Govereor, in determining that the net of Congress has been complied with, loax Itcl ion to inluire Intr.) the truth of the chartIcs latide or to look inthf tide I)! 1107 p5I pers14T-mattca tifterm ine whether or net the peoon is a into I (' ftIII ire."

Nothing can be clearer than the deeleion of the New York Supreme Coolie condemning such a proceeding as heat, el, unauthorized, anol a usurpation of authority. AFTER TWENTY YEARS. THE IRISH IN NEBRASILA 7 I Superior CourtNeve Sults. A. Starr vs.

J. Beattie, soir. The Great Assembly Which Clay, Crittenden, Corwin, and Schenck Addressed In 18-12. Dayton Letter to Clueinnati Commercial: Ex-President Hayes, in his little speech at the Home Wednesday, having stated that the first large concourse of people be had ever witnessed was in Dayton, in 1842, was asked in private conversation to give some facts concerning that meeting, and related many interesting incidents. He was a boy at the time, just old enough to be observant, and remembers matters both great and small connected With the meeting.

He says the attendance was immense, and though not so large as at the great Harrison meeting of two years before, the fame of which had gone out through all the land, it was still larger than any meeting he has ever attended outside of New York, Washington, and Philadelphia. He, with some other boys, came in a wagon from Columbus, and the National road from beyond Newark to this city was so crowded with vehicles as to form an actual -procession. When visitors arrived they were assigned to private houses, and he had the good fortune to be assigned to the residence of Horatio Phillips, where Henry Clay was also a guest. Ho therefore saw and noted much of Mr. Clay.

The chief orators of the occasion whom he remembers hearing were Henry Clay, John J. Crittenden. Thomas Corwin, Hobert C. Schenck, and Charles Anderson. At the principal stand spoke Clay, Crittenden, and then Corwin.

By thetime Corwin was introduced the audience had become a little restless. and Tom seemed to be somewhat nettled at his position on the program, and determined to outshine his predecessors. And his proved to be the great speech of the day. The audience no longer showed signs of weariness, but remained to shout and laugh until the Itt4 word was uttered. There was undoubtedly much to aid him in the fact that the Buckeyes present were anxious to show off the Ohio orator and have him outstrip the Kentucky celebrities.

"Nothing could have been more romantic," said Oen. Hayes. "than the appearance of Charlie Anderson at that time. He was Grand Marshal of the paradea splendid-looking specimen of manhood, upon a spirited horse, with his badge of thee fluttering in the wind, and in all respects the envy of ambitious youth. Even then he was famous for his silver tongue.

Schenck made an excellent speech from a store-box on Third street. Clay's oratory was characterized by great clearness. There was nothing of the humorous about him, and few pyrotechnics. Toward the close of his speech, which was chiefly on that everlasting theme, the tariff, and necessarily argumentative and statistical, he indulged in a few words of exhortation which were beautiful and impressive. Before going upon the stand some young man warned him to speak loud or he would nut be heard by so great a crowd in the open air.

Clay responded that if he failed it should be attributed to his youth and inexperience. The cut was felt." Desertinz the Army and Ills Familya A Woman With Two HusbandsXEstA, Aug. the summer of 1802 a company of volunteers was recruited at Washington, O. Jobn Levey cast his fortunes with the company, leaving behind a family consisting of his wife and three children. He re.

unlined with his comrades until the return trip front Arkansas Post. On this trip many soldiers became dissatisfied and desertions were frequent. Before the reuituent arrived at Young's Point Levey deserted. lie did not come home after the War was over, and no neWEI Of him was obtained from the returning soldiers. As the years rolled by it was believed that he bad died.

lkirs. Levey continued to mourn the death of her husband until October 20, IS70. That day she was married to Thomas Ellis. The two sons and daughter bad grown up anti were married and doing well. A day or two ago a letter wa5; received trom the long missing husband and fattier.

The letter reveals the fact that for twenty years Levey has been living in the Counties of Pike, Jackson, and Selota, and never beyond a day's travel from his wife and children. He had often passed through Washington, but never took the trouble to hunt up his family. He has been working as a farm hand, has accumulated nothing, and is old and poor. The letter does not indicate any disposition to disturb the present family relations of his wife. but merely inquires about his children and manifests a desire to see them.

ti Lanni MONAHAN. The DesertThe OasisIrrigation The SpringsPlke's PealiThe Lovely CanyonsThe Clear AirLife In the Ileavensslek and 'WellA Melon-FarmPuebloRiding and Driving. COLORADO SPRINOR, July 28.To begin with, this is a misnomer, for there are no springs here, and the place where the springs are, some five or six miles distant, is celled Manitou. The two towns however, arc closely allied, and in a way inter-dependent. They are connected by a railroad, while the distance by carriage is but a half-hour's drive, the roads in this "god-forsaken hand" being as perfect as roads can be.

This place Is widely known as the "Serateea of the West," and it is a charming oasis in the desert. Coloradians will keenly resent having their State called a desert, undoubtedly, but from the Valley of the Arkansas in on through to Pueblo and tin the mountains to this point, the counrry is well-nigh absoliitely barren. Beyond the varieties of weeds, clumps of sage, cactus. thistles bearing a large white blossom, prairie dogs, and an occasional herd of cattle or sheep nibbling at invisible grass, which they must see with the mind's eye," the country for hundreds of miles is barren and desolate, except where it is Irrigated and the desert made to blossom like the rose. Colorado Springs is one of these gardens.

and in course of time much of the state may be transformed into a thing of beauty. lint it is in this State and on these brown, weedy, and homesick-looking plains where are many of the famous great ranches of the West. The great desideratum in locating a ranch is to secure and control a water supply with the land, an ordinary ranch being nearly twenty by eisthteen miles in extent, or thereabouts. Springs are not uncommon, so net water for cattle is secured without difficulty. The line brown grass that looks so mean and insufficient, is a kind of condensed food, and is claimed to be very nutritious, and the cattle browse on it all winter in the open plains.

The mfich cows cat the wild sage as wellprobably at times for lack of anything else, and the milk is often flavored with it. To my taste, it is not so disagreeable as garlic, and one of the enthustacts whom I have met here claims that the sage is a panacea for all Colorado ailments. The herb is sage green in color, but differs wholly in leafage from the ordinary garden sage, its leaves being quite like those of the old-fashioned aromatic garden "yarb known as old man." Some of the cactus varieties produce brilliant blossoms, and the flora of the state is marvelously bright and varied, all things considered. I was aroused to this fact yesterday while going up Engleman's Cafion to the foot of the trail leading to the summit of Pike's Peak. Colorado Springs ia 6,000 feet above the sea, and on a level with the summit of Mount Washington in New Hampshire.

Pike's Peak is directly in front of me as I write, its snowy top being over 8,000 feet higher- feet above the sea level. The base of the mountain is six or eight miles distant. At sunset I can plainly see the station of the United States Signal Servicetne highest in the worldand such is the clearness of the atmosphere that, with a I try to convince myself that I could see a man if he should venture outside the tort. The universal tree planted in this town end Stateso far as I have seen itis a species of cottonwood. which has a fine and beautiful foillige, and at this season is shedding its cotton-like bloom, which flies about in the air like snowflakes.

It borders all the Etreets of this town, which, it, must be conceded, is a beautiful one. It was laid out in loll by a party of gentlemen most of thorn from Philadelphia. and it has been built and controlled by Eastern men. Irrigating ditches traverse the town at right angles, and it is indeed curious to see the lawns and gardens watered by the overflow from the multitude of sub-ditches, or little canals. The water which supplies the food and drink," is brought directly in a pipe front one ot the mountain streams that is fed by the melting snows of Pike's Peak, and is nown as Ituxton's Creek.

It flows through Engleman's Callon, and as I often drank from it, and sat down on the rocks yesterday in the enchanting gorge, to watch its rushing. limpid, torrent-like flow, so carefully guarded from all impurities, it seemed like a source of immortal health and strength. What per cent of invalids who come here, and the "here" must include Manitou, are cured by the high altitude, the pure air and water, I do not know. But there are sick people to be met at every turn, people in a "decline," or suffering from general debility. The bulk of the invalids, however, suffer from throat and lung diseases.

Some persons in lair condition, NV ho come here for no improvement in health, suffer considerable discomfort from the climate for a time. I may cite myself as an example, as I have had continuous sore throat, much headache, and what is generally called nervousness," the air producing an accelerated action of the heart. Pueblo, while being quite a city, and notably a business one, having numerous blasting-furnaces and steel- works, is excessively hot in the day. The nights. however, are said to be coot, but the town is far from being as pleasant a summer resort as is this, which is much higher.

The mercury here reaches Fahrenheit in the shade at midday; but the heat is not greatly felt. There is not much wheat produced in Colorado, as it has net yet been found to be profit ELOPING WITH A FARM HAND. SHOUTING FOR BLAINE AND LOGAN. For 7h, Chicago Tribune.

The door was burst open after repeated efforts to awake the supposed Inmate, and the room NV OA found unoccupied. Fears of foul play were at first entertained, and various other excuses were advanced to account for the a')sence of the datiebter. A search of the room however, brought to view a note, which lay on the bureau, and read thus: Mother: NVhen you see this I will probably be far away with the one whom I love tont whom you and papa hate. You may think I am serving Pete a mean triek, but the letters I have received from him during Ins absence have not contained one word of affectioniss Starr is about 19. About a year ago Mr.

Starr engaged Louis Link, of Milan, to assist in farm-work. Link did his work faithfully, and spent nearly all his leisure time at the them in conversation with the object of his affections. Knowing that the young womarra parents would never consent to their union, the young pair decided to overcome the difficulty by eloping. Carriage-tracks beneath the girrs window tell the means of devaeture employed, but all efforts to trate, the pair have failed. Miss Starr was engaged to Peter Laroo, who has been absent On the lakes sailing in the capacity of lint-mate on the schooner South west.

Wily GOV. TOD DEMANDED BIG FEEI. Cleveland Leader: The incident given by the Hon. P. P.

Spaulding- in the musical career of the late Gov. Tod recalls another incident of the Governor, in which he gave some advice to the writer, who had just entered upon the practice of medicine at Youngstown, O. some thirty-live years ago. He said that a professional mans reputation was often influenced by the amount of fees he charged, and gave this account of his first big case, shortly after he commenced the law practice at Warren: One of the Buffalo (N. IC') banks had a contest with other parties amounting to a large sum of money, and the bank sent for him to come to Buffalo and take the ease.

lie was greatly astonished to receive such a request when there were eminent lawyers in Buttalo, but decided to go, and notified the bank to that effect. The only public conveyance was 1, stage, which required about two days and nights to make the trip. The case was strongly contested by the opposition, but be was successful, and the bank came out ahead. It was nearly night when the decision was given. The stage left for the West in the forenoon.

The bankers congratulated him upon his work, and asked him to bring in his bill in the morning. He went to his hotel revolving in his mind what charge to make. His first thought was tiOd. But he thought that would not do. The bank must have had some idea that he was a lawyer of ability or they would not have sent so tar into the country, and he did not sleep very well over it, but toward morning he concluded that he would make tte tee 1500.

and dropped to sleep. When he arose and got his breakfast he called Its no matter who's the tee. Whether rich, or learned, or great. All must live and leant the law they must obey; For. as loyal.

brave, and true. We will guard our Union whole From all foes that live, or till a soldiers grave. Chorusllope, hope, hope, etc. I MOIDION CANTCAINE AND PERSECUTION. Salt Lake Tribune: If the Hon.

John T. Caine were to be charged with representing the Mormon Church in Congress doubtless he would resent the charge and declare that he represented every interest in rtali. But when he came home how natural it was for hint to get up in the tabernacle to report, and how natural it was for him to refer simply to the legislation which was attempted to compel the majority here to obey the laws, and to his efforts to defeat it. There was not another thing referred to. Mr.

Cannon in one of his harangues said the Mormon God was a business God, but Mr. Caine had not a word to say abont business: nothing but the Mormon Church, and tow. by the help of God, the Mormons were determined that the State here should always be held In subjection to the mandates of a creed. And then, like the verleA fraud in the church. he went on to dilate upon the persecutions which the Mormons had suffered and were still suffering, even as the A FOOLISH SPARROW.
