Thirty days mora of Congres

peaee.
The Congressional days of the
Apostolic Mormon Cannon seem to
be numbered. The House Commit
t on Elections have concluded
their investigations touching the
polygamus and disloyal career of
Bigham's Congressional proxy, and
the Impression prevails that the
Committee will recommend his ex
pulsion by an almost unanimous
vote during the present week. There
is little doubt that tbe recommenda
tions of the committee will be
adopted by the House.
Another historical event takes
place at the "White House to-day.
We refer to the wedding of Miss
Nellie Grant to a British million
aire. It Is, we believe, the first in
stance on record where the daugh
ter of an American President was
married during the Presidential
term of her lather. It is also the
first Instance where the daughter of
an American President has married
orejgner, The last wedding in
the White House, Jf memory serves
us correctly, was that of
President Buchanan's nfeoe, Miss
Harriet Lane, In 1800. Although it
has been announced that Miss
Grant's wedding Is not to be a State
affair, the extraordinary prepara
. tions for the occasion, and the al
most regal programme for the bridal
tour, have a decided tendency to
give the affair an official character,
While Mr. Bartoris and his bride
doubtfcm have a perfect right to
make as much display as their pe
cuniary means will warrant, It is
to be deplored that their marriage
inaugurates a striking departure
from the pure democraclo simplicity
which has heretofore, and should
here&fter, remain the marked fea
ture of tie American character.
OMAHA" AJTD THE TOIOY
PACIFIC.
President Dillon and several
members of the Union Pacific
etlrectory are now in our midst
Their presence will, we hope, afford
to the citizens of Omaha an oppor
tunity to Impress upon them the In
inealculablc damage which has been
and Is now being infllctod upon this
city by reason of tho non?fulfillr
ment on tho part of the Union
Pacific of certain contract stipula
tions touching depot buildings and
railway headquarters.
Omaha has never wavered in her
friendship to the Union Pacific.
She has Jiever sought to evade her
contract obligations, and she has a
right to expect that the Company
will also make good Uieir'pledges.
Had these pledges been promptly
fulfilled, we can safely assert that
Ooaaha would to-day have contained
pot lass than forty thousand people.
We do not profess that these results
woddltaYe been1 accomplished by i
the mere expenditure of $200,000 or
more In railway buildings, but we
do claim that the vasellUtJng policy
-pursued by Mr. Dillon's predecessors
in power has discouraged public and
rjvate enterprises, and driven back
thousands of industrious men with
muaole af)4 capital, who would oth
erwise have loeated in our midst.
We are constrained Q make this
statement because we owe it to our
selves ana to the people of Omaha,
as a citisen and a Journalist. Wedo
this with the kindest feelings toward
Mr. Dillon and the other officers of
the Coaapany. Our appeal to them
la behalf of Omaha Is also, ariap
pealia behalf of the Union Paellc.
Tbe prosperity of Oman mast se
casaarily add to the prosperity ef
tbt Union Pacific. A large city
baUt at the terminus of the roai
mast inevitably increase and im
port tbe company's traffic.
Where there are such mutual in
tenets there should also be.har
moaloit co-operation. Omaha has
acted her part with commendable
liberality, and yw It remains far
tha Union Pacific to reciprocate.
Preejdcat Dillon enjoys the reputa
ttosi of being a man of broad gen
erous aad liberal views. As -the
chief executive of the Union Pacific
he Is in A position "that empowers
him to put the unfulfilled pledges of
Ms predecessors Into practical exe--ution.
W have good reason to belleveJ
-that President Dillon -means te-j
- ela justice and we hope his visit
to Oaaaba will not disappoint our
fSpeetatJkws.
Trie third term Alarmists are
still on the rampage, and "Watter
son, of the Courier-Journal, is the
most rampant of them all.
Harvesting has already com
menced In Northern Texas, and .the
wBeat crop of 1874 is repr&sented as
the largest and best ever raised in
that section.
If any "one "of thethirteen op
pressed and downtrodden editors of
our junler contemporary, have any
doubts about the genuineness of the
Hickey letter, they can call at the
Bee hive and inspect the original.
The sentiments expressed by
President Grant In connectiotfwlth
the programme for Decoration Day
at Baltimore, will be applauded by
every American citizen who sincerel
ly seeks the welfare of his country.
The time has come when the bitter
and deadly animosities engendered
by the rebellion shonld be obliter
ated. Nothing will go farther in
restoring fraternal relations be
tween the north and south than the
public exhibition of respect In
honor of the men whose lives were
sacrificed In that fratracldal strife.
The touching memorial of decoration
Day should no longer be deseorated
by discrimination between the
graves of the patriotic heroes
who fought and died for the
preservation of the Union and
the brave heroes -who, in their mis
taken zeal .to perpetuate slavery,
perished on the battle field, In de
fense of "the lost cause." It is to be
lioped The day is not distant, when
the survivors of the rebellion, North
and South, will Inaugurate mutual
reconciliation by agreeing upon the
same decoration day.
There certainly can bo good reas
on for perpetuating animosities by
keeping up one decoration day for
Union soldiers, and another for the
Confederate dead, tan. years after
the war has closed.

In the days when "boiled shirts"
were a Sunday luxury, the. owners
of those articles .had Jheir names
stamped on the bands below the
plaits, and as the fashion of vets
was not tolerated at that time (this
was apt in the "earlier years of the
reign of George. JH.") the name of

which was, fully exposed to view.

THE CALIFORNIA BANDIT.
Wliat the Bobber 'Chieftain Has
to Say of His Exploits.
Particulars of the Brilliant Cap
ture of Vasguez.
San Francisco Chronicle, May 16
Los Angeles, May 15.
When Vasquez was carried into
the jail last night, there was a dense
crowd surrounding the entrance. All
were curious ana eager 10 Reieeu
glimpse of" the bandit. When he
saw how great an object of interest
he-was, "the wounded man- hid his
face, in his -wrappings, and endeav
ored to escape observation, but a de
"puty sheriff pulled the covering
"awas 'He was at once recognized
by Charles E. Miles, who shouted,
"That's the man! That's Vasquez!"
There had been a slight doubt in the
minds of the people as"to the rob
ber's identity, but this recognition
settled all that
THE FIKST NIGHT IN JAIL.
The two companions of Vasquez
were locked up in cells, but the
wounded man was permitted to
occupy a more comfortable place,
though, of course, ho was placed
under the strictest guard. Two
Deputy Sheriffs, -besides a nurse
and Drs. Wise Widney, and re
mained with the robber the greater
part of the night After his wounds
were dressed, and the jail surround
ings became quiet, Vasquez went
to sleep and rested for several hours.
This morning he was as bright as a
new dollar. He feels chagrined, of
course, at his capture, and must
feel not over-confident of its favor
able result; but ho keeps a cheerful
exterior, and has already won a
certain degree of respect for his im
perturbable demeanor.
WHAT VASQUEZ LOOKS LIKE.
The Chronicle correspondent to
day had an interview with Vasquez
atthejaf. He was lying, on a cot
in tho hall, and was quite weak and
sore. In appearanco he is quite
different from what one would im
agine him to be from tho reports
published heretofore. He is of
medium height, with a wiry, well
knit figure, and a largo light gray
eye. His features are regular, his
forphead high, and his head well
shapei." Ilis pomplexjon. s light
enough" to indicate the presence of
Saxon blood. His deportment is
thut of a cool, quiet, determined
man, who would hesitate at noth
ing to accomplish a purpose. He
understands but little English, and
any conversation has to be carried
on through an interpreter.
When the correspondent first ejir
tered the room Vasquez was sitting
up talking 'with Sheriff Rowland
and others. He at onco recognized
the Chroniclo representative as one
of the "party who had captured him,
and smiled In a sickly way. When
informed that the correspondent's
object in calling upon him was to
see if he wished to make any state
ment through tlje press, he said
that he had a good deal to say, but
that he was very weak. However,
he would talk a little.
THB INTERVIEW.
He said he was born in Monterey
county in 1837, and lived there un
til he was fifteen years of age. About
that time he got Into a row at a
dance, and officbrs came to .arrest
him, but lie made a big fight and
c&caped.
Reporter Where did you go
then?
Vasquez I gathered a few cattle
and went up near Ukiah, in Men
docino county, and stayed there for
several months. One day they
came to arrest me again, but I
fought tbeni off and got away. No
body was hurt in either of these
fights.
Reporter Where did you go
after you escaped that time ?
Vasquez (after a long pause)
Well, 1 went back to Monterey and
saw my mother. In a short' time
after I went out into the world, and
I've been there ever since,
Reporter It has been said that
you were driven to lawless deeds
because of outrages inflicted upon
you by white people. Is that so ?
Vasquez Well, partially so.
When I used to keep a dance-house
in Monterey the Americans would
come in there and abuse me and the
woman I lived with.
NO TRUST IN WOMEN.
Reporter It has been said that
your wife was outraged by a white
man and several of your relatives
killed. Is that so?
Vasquez "So; I was never mar
ried. 1 have lived with women, but
never had a wife, and never had
any relative killed by an American
that I know of-
Reporter Don't you think that
your capture may in some way be
laid at a woman's door?
Vasquez (with a shrug) Oh, no.
I never trust a woman. There isn't
a woman in the world that ever had
a chance to betray me. T love
women, but I never trust them with
a secret.
Reporter Have you ever taken a
human life?
Vasquez "So; I have robbed a
good many men, but I never killed
one. I always avoided blood and
urged my people to be careful and
not take human life unless forced
to do it in open light
Reporter How about
THE TRE3 TINOS MURDER?
Who committed it?
Vasquez I will tell you the truth;
ami-ill order that von mnvhprpnftpr
know what I sav is trnr T will m vo
you the "names of .my party. If
these men are captured thoy will
substantiate what J say: A't Tres
Pinos my party consisted of five
men, all told. Adon Leiva acted as
my lieutenant, nnd when I sent a
party he acted as chief. I remained
some distance away from Tres Pinos
and sent Ieiva with two men into
the place with instructions to drink
and smoke, but to draw no weapons
nor do any violence until I arrived.
Chavls remained with me. We soon
followed the advance guard, and
when we preached Tres Pinos we
found the murders already commit
ted. I scolded the men for disobey
ing my orders; and said to tbe lady
whose husband was tied thatlf she
did not glveme that money I would
kill him. She gave the money. I
did not kill him.
Reporter How much money did
she eive vou?
- Vasquez Oh, very little. The
whole amount didn't exceed 5200.
The goods weic taken from the
store after my arrival.
AN AMOROUS ROBBER.
ReporterWho committed the
murders?
Vasquez Lciva shot the man in
the stable and at the' store door.
Romalo lulled the man - Inside the
house.
Reporter After leaving Tres Pi
nos where did you go?
, Vasquez ChavisTiLeiva, and my
self got away to Rock Creek. There
the trouble took place with Leiva's
wife, and in revenge he tried to be
tray me.
Reporter- By the way whatabout
that?; . ,
Vasquez Oh! I'd had an intima
cy with her long before that, and
Leiva knew it. But he caught us
one day, and then made that anex-
cuse-for the treachery he had con
templated, for a good while. But
he didn't succeed. Most of the
time since then I've -spent in Los
Angeles and Kern counties.
HOW THE BANDIT CAME TO BE SUR
PRISED. Reporter How was it that you
were so unprepared -for a fight -yesterday?
Vasquez I had just taken off my
revolvers and set my rifle down to
go into the Tiitchen and get some
dinner, when the first alarm came.
I had no time for arming myself. I
saw the wagon coming up the road,
vtir Jirln't nav &nv attention to it.
At no time before, since the Rapettp
affair have I been unprepared to
fight. I have robbed for twenty
years, but I have never killed any
body, and I think they might have
given me a show, itied. up twenty
men at Coyotte Holes, and though a
man shot and wounded me there, I
did not take his life, though I might
have done it easily, for I had him
at my mercy. I regret being taken
in this way, for I always expected
to sell my life dearly. .Now, I sup
pose, I will be hung up like a dog."
At this point Vasquez intimated
that he was tired, and the in
terview terminated.
ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS OF THE
CAPTURE.
I find on conferring with diner
rent members of our party to-day,
that after I was posted at the north
east corner of the house, Harris,
Hartley, Johnson and Bryant passed
around the east corner of the house.
Harris, looking across the angle,saw
a man sitting on the table in the
little kitchen. Harris, Hartly and
Johnson reached the door first, and
the woman" discovering their ap
proach, sprang toward the door
with outstretched hands, and at
tempted to close It Harris pried it
open with the muzzle of his gun in
time to see Vasquez go flying
through the narrow opening in tbe
south end of the wing, and instantly
fired. The four wen sprang around
tho end. of the building and caught
sight of the astonished outlaw at
nearly tho same moment that he
sprang toward his horse, only Jto
find himself confronted by me. At
the same instant Rogers sprang
upon him from the west The
firing was simultaneous. He threw
up his hands, exclaiming: Don't
shoot; you needn't shoot j you've
got me," Harris said., '.'Come
along, then," and he started at once
with the party around the building.
On tho way ho repeated, "You,
boys, have got me ; my name is Al
ejandro Martinez." Johnson said,
"I have had your photograph for
years, and know you to be Tibrjco
