contemplated a coup d ctat in case a
majority of tho Cortes should vote

throw of frco government. In all
probability this sensational telegram
will be contradicted within the next
twenty-four hours.
Jin. Wm. Orton, in behalf ot tho
Western Union telegraph monopoly,
telli Postmaster General CrcBwell
what ho knows about tho history of
tho Puciflc telegraph lino from Oma
ha to San Francisco. Mr. Orton ns.
erli that tho $400,000 subsidy paid
by the Government for tho encour
agement of tho enterprise was more
than counterbalanced in dollars and
canti by tho telegrams transmitted
freo of chargo by tin Qovornmeut
over that lino. If Mr. .Or
ton was disposed to tell all
tho facts in connection witli the
Pacific tolegraph, ho would exhibit
ono of tho most stupendous frauds
over perpetrated upon a libera gov
ernment. Ho would toll tho Post
master Geueral how tho charter of
this concern waa systematically vio
lated in letter nnd in Hpirit, and how
hoth tho peoplo and tho Government
were subjected to a sorics of unmiti
gated impositions.
THE MILITIA BUSINESS.
In times of ponce prcpnro for war
is evidently tho maxim that guides
Governor Furnas in his recent war
llko preparations. Whan tho Got
cruor appointed his first Adjutant
General wo were disposed to look
upon tho excrciso of this higher law
JIh Excellency was a very proper
person for such a position, inasmuch
us his constant presenco at the Stato
capital enables him to attend to any
requisition for arms or munitions of
war in cases ot extraordinary emer
gency. When apprised of tho ap
pointment of n second Adjutant Geu
eral, at Schuyler, wo were disposed
to ridiculo tho performance.
Now, that wo are aesurod that tho
Governor has gone iuto tho whole
sale commission business, wo aro be
ginniug to look upon this midden
manufacture of gcucraltf, colonels,
and ninjors, from a moro serious
stand-point. According to 'the Bea
trice Express, II. W. Parker, Esq.,
of that city, has received a brigadier
general's commission, with tho titlo
of Engincer-insChicf of tho State
militia, and the Omaha Republican
informs us that Mr..E. T. Tent, of this
city, holds another brigadier's com
mission as quartermaster-general,
while Dr. Wilkinson, of Dakota City,
has been dubbed a surgeon-general.
Now what docs all this mean?
Where docs tho Governor dcrivo his
authority for issuing these commis
sions? Why docs ho issuo them at a
time of profound poace? llcforo en
tering upon any nrgumont touching
the legality of these commlrsious wo
must assumo that tho Governor of
this State is to bo guided and con
trolled in all his actions by the con
stitution und lawsof thiaState, which
are tho foundation of nil his powors
and prerogatives. Tho Constitution
of this Stato makes tho Governor tho
Commander-in-Chief of tho military
nnd naval forces of tho Stato.
On tho othor hand, tho constitution
clothes tho Legislaturo witli tho solo
power to orgauice tho militia and
provide for their government. Sec
tion 2G, article Legislature, reads as
follows: "Tho Legislative hhall do
termluo what porsons shall constitute
tho militia of tho State, nnd may
provldo for organizing and disciplin
ing tho samo in such manner as shall
ho prescribed by law," In othor
word, tho Legislaturo shall framo
tho laws for tho organization of mil
itia, nnd tho Governor shall executo
theso laws. Now, the only provis
ions mado by tho Leglskturo for tho
organization of militia, will be found
upon pages 47Q, 71 and 72, of tho
revised statutes. That act Is hub
stantlally ns follows:
Section 1 designates tho persons II
alio to militia duty. Section JIdrclnres
that tho Governor, as Commanders
in-Chief of (ho militia, may order
put ho inilltL iu cao of Insurrec
tion, invasion or war. Section 3 ou
thorizes tho Governor to order out
militia by comptnlcs, or by counties,
but instructs him to have due regard
to spanoly fettled frontier counties,
whoo militia men shall not
be called away from their
own counties, except when de
manded by . imperative necessity.
Section 4 authorizes the organization
of independent militia companies,
whoso officers shall be elected by tho
members of such companies and com
missioned by tho Governor. Section
C authorizes tho Governor to arm,
equip and organize the militia .when
In his , Judgment hor shall
deem it nccessaryfor tho protection
of tho citizens thereof. Section C
authorizes tho Governor to appoint
and commission all 'militia officers'
whoso election is not provided for.
While this provision might techni
cally be construed as sufficient au
thority for tho appointment of Aids-de-Camp,
Quartermaster and Surgeon
Generals, Euglncers-ln-Chiif, Briga
dier aud Major Generals ad libitum.
Wo bellev.Jthe spirit, if not ,tho letter
of the law, contemplates no such ap
pointment except in times of throat-
enrd or actual invasion or insurrec
tion. Does Governor Furnas protend
that tu oh an emergency exists or is
likely to occur during his prcicnt
term of ofllco?
Why then stretch the authority of
tho law to such an extent? It may
bo argued that thcro is no harm in all
this warlike trumpery, but wo nrguo
thnt Nebraska is less in want of all
these fuss and feather holiday officers
than she was at any tlmo during her
history. She never did enjoy tho
protection of an Engineer in Chief,
and still sho flourished. She novcr
had n Surgeon-General t feel hor
pulso and inspect her tongue, but
thank God sho still survives. Sho
never did havo n Quartermaster Gen
eral, but by the blessings of Provi
dence sho still manages to provide
her sons and daughters with abun
dant and wholesome food and decent
garments. Wo would say in nil can
dor to tho Governor that, in our
humblo judgment, he can gain de
cidedly more respect nnd confidence
by acting ns a patron of peace than
by exercising questionable functions
as a wnr Governor.
AMONG THE MORMONS.
What a Gemtilo Knows About the
Young Family.
Cirrcspondencc ot the Doc
Oodkn, January 1,
Editor Omaha Bee;
1874.
A few items from this outpost of
Latter Day Saintdom may not bo un
interesting to your readers. There
has been qulto a stir hero lately, in n
quiet way, concerning tho expected
legislation in Congress in regard to
poligamy; nnd although they are
like tho old man nnd his wilo, who,
going to law in a certain case, used to
get tho case every time; yet they
secretly fear that they will come out
as this same man and wlfo did in
their case; they fear that tho law
yers wont do as they (thp Mormons)
desire. The arguments used by the
Mormon when thoy are conversing
to tho faithful aro vory faloclous to
ono who don't bcliovo in n divino
rovelation to Joeph Smith. One
great argument they tiso against any
interference of tho United States
with their peculiar institutions
is that poligamy existed beforo
TTfilt KnlfttitvAf-l tn tli TTtirA1 QIa4a
Perhaps this may be true, but wlici
tney came under the U. s. laws that
fact would not release them from
oboying all laws thus on tho statute
uoolc until their repeal. They also
forget that they, tho Mormons, went
into Mexico mm established n gov
ernment, nnd foreign to that of the
country thoy then lived in, nnd nt
varionco witli it iu every particular
and acknowledging no nllcigauco to
it at all. In other words, they stole
the land of another country and then
complain that they aro misused by
the government thnt buys tho correct
titlo from tho real ownerof tho coun
try they then live in.
A case of peculiar hard shin under
the working of their polygamous
practices has just become, in a meas
ure, tho property of tho public, and
it will not full to interest your read
on, as showing what a woman will
bear from her lovo to a so-called re-
Sljjlon. Mr. John W. Young, tan of
rrcjiucnt urignani xoung, had two
wives (?) 'I'ho first had borno him
three children, tho second two chil
dren. About this tlmo ho went
cast on n visit with several
of tho prominent Mormons.
Whilo there he becamo acquainted
witli a cousin of tho socond wife from
Elkton, Ind., nnd mado hlmsolf bo
agreeable that bIio "left all aud fol
lowed him." This lady was then n
mnrried woman, though not living
with her husband. (She lived witli
hor husband only about a weok when,
from so mo incompatibility of temper,
sho look horsclf away). It is believed
by those conversant with the facts
that this lady from tho first deter
mined tn follow out tho phu which
has just been consummated. About
a mouth after the party reached Salt
Lako this lady, now Mrs. John W.
Young, (3rd) wks divorced from hor
first husband nnd then married to
Mr. Young, nccordlng to the rites of
tho Mormon church. Hero begins
tho trouble. Sho refused to marry
Mr. Y. unloss ho would divorce the
other two wives, nnd ho, infatuated
with a new faco, did so, although ns
yet ho has not ceased to provide for
them aud their children; but n wo
man wiio can accomplish no much can
compass even this. What makes tho
caw ouo of peculiar hardship is the
fact that tho wlfo who has turned tjio
othors out of doorc, ns it were, Is
nn own couiln to tho second wife, i
iiietr uniuo uuiug uuniiehi. Alio fcc
ond wlfo'a name is Lucy and tho third
Lizzie.
Supposing1 this caso woro to come
Into court before an unbiased Jiiry,
how long wovld It be beforo Mr.
Youn would bo looking out from
behind tho bars of n prison? and the
world at largo would say, "served
him right." To mnko tho matter
moro binding, tho third wife, during
a visit East not long nince, bound her
husband to go through another cer
emony according to the laws of the
United States, snowing clearly that
her design was to cut offtho children
of tho first two wives from any share
In tho estato of their father in case of
his death. This, tho true sldo of tho
picture, reduces tho pleasing romance
which so mo Eastern papers havo been
speeding over the country concerning
this case, to something very like
tragedy, for in tho truo picturo aro
shown some of tho worst trnlti of
eharacterlbat n woman can posses

played tho s.imo gamo on her less
favored companions, and so gavo her
son tho crown of Judah.
Tho Mormons of to-day ara a people
of progress, ns mny be shown in their
numerous schools, Ac. That thoy
aro n body seperato aud looking out
for their own Intcrsts to tho exclus
ion of others, it a truth that cannot
bo denied. Thoy havo soma good
traits -in this connection, though;
thoy look after their poor, at least so
far as to keep them from suffering;
but tho inevitable "tithing" comes
iuto the account, oven in tho poorest
house. If n jMjor man earns 20 cents
a day, two of that must i$o to tho
tithing ofllco.
Prominent Mormons say that tho
women aro tho strongest advocates of
polygamy, even going so fur as to
urge upon tholr husbands to tnko
other wives, aud thoso raised in tho
east among religious people arc said
to bo tho most strenuous in this mat
tor. Ono woman in particular, said
to bo a very nice, puro lady, said:
"If I had known before I left En
gland, that tho Mormons mado eo
much of polygamy, I would novcr
have joined them ; but siuco I have
learned their doctrines nnd principles,
I would not 11 vo with a man who did
not preach it." Tills goes to' show
that thore aro many sinccro people
among them. Doubtless, many of
them arc filled with tho spirit of tho
religion whilo holding principles
of faith entirely opposed to nil
revealed religion and tho practice of
nearly tho wholo civilized world.
Ono great argument used by tho
Mormons it that thoy marry numer
ous wives to prevent prostitution; but
legalized prostitution is very little
bettor than nny other. Tho Mor
mons are wiso in ono particular;
thoy all, young and old, join in their
nmusemciits. Dancing is with them
a favorite amusement, and the gray
haired men and women seem td
delight in it as much as the children.
What would Omaha belles und
beaux think of opening ono of their
"Social" or "Pleasant Hours" with n
prayer to God to keen them from sin
and bless tho danco to their physical
and spiritual good. I think many
would stay nwny till nfter the open
ing prayer; but it is not so witli
theso people, who havo such a strango
mixture of tho sublime arid ridicui
lous in nil tholr belief. They require
no proof of u wish to live a puro life
nsa condition of church member
ship. If any one expresses n wish to
pass through tho ordeal they feel
that thoy cannot refuse to rovlvo him.
Of course such a ono will be cut off
from tho church unless they behnvo
satisfactorily.
I may givo you other items in
future as thoy como to my knowledge.
