ANTI-POLYGAMY LEGISLA
TION.
Senator Edmunds' anti-polygamy
bill is a well digested measure , but wo
fear it is destined to prove a political
failure. The problem in Utnh haa
not boon to devise a law stringent
enough to strangle polygamy but to
devise moans for executing minting
lows. The ( lillicully haa been to prove
the fact of marriage in Utah. Mor
mon marriages are secret , and are per
formed by MormoiiH. IJigamous and
polygamous marriages could not , on
this account , bo established by legal
testimony. To obviate thin trouble a
heavy penalty is provided against the
simple act of cohabitation with moro
than one woman , without reference to
marriage. To try this it is provided
that no one who has lived in bigamy
polygamy or adultery , or believes that
ny such practices are to bo tolerated ,
shall bo competent to ait as a juryman -
i man , Hight there the bill breaks
: down.
How can a jury panel bo filled in
Utah when both Mormons and Gen
tiles are made incompetent to sit on
juries. 'It is self evident that every
Mormon that adheres to the belief
that polygamy is sanctioned and com
manded by the Deity would be dis
abled from jury duty and BO would
every non-Mormon who religiously
believes polygamy to bo a crime , be
cause such men could not render an
impartial verdict. The trouble in
Utah as far as wo are able to observe
' has not been a want of law but the
. .I
. inability to enforce oxiating statutes
for the reason that conviction und
them cannot bo procured. The parti
guilty of polygamy cannot bo indue
to turn state's evidence nnd tin
wives refuse to testify ngaii
them , nnd the magistrates tl
license such nmrriagci cannot
forced to give testimony that woi
criminate them , and renders tin
liable to prosecution as ncccsnorii
All thesediflicultioa cannot bo reach
by Senator Kdmunds * bill or n
oilier device. The only thing tl
will blot out polygamy is moral mei
urea backed by public sentiment , u
that can only be worked up when
largo majority of the people of Ut
shall bo composed of non-Mormoi
or Mormons that reject polygamo
marrinifo as a divine ordinance. T
problem which Senator Kdmunds ai
others are trying to solve U in o
opinion nearer solution than they it
agine. The rapid extension of tl
railway system through Utah w
soon bring an influx of non Merion
settlers into the territory , and nt i
distant day the Mormons thomselvi
will bo forced to abandon polygan
as n relic of barbarism which canni
thrive side by nido with monogam ;
just as slavery nnd freedom could in
thrive side by side.
FREE TRADE AND PROTEC

THER LANDS THAN OURS.
The now French cabinet formed by
. do Froycinet is beyond question
m of the ablest in the history of the
publio. It contains two ox-premiers ,
Jrry'und Froycinol himself and
ur ( itlior ullicors who have hold
sta in previous cabinets. It ia
kiiowlodgml th-it M. do Froycinet is
man whose abilities are above the
oragoof French statesmen of the
st class. His administrative
powers
ivo boon trained and ripened in po.

lity ; he is moderate in his policy ,

AMO.VO the noteworthy facts
which attention has been recent
called is the marked change \\liich ii
migration to this country from t
Hritish islands ia undergoing. Whi
the exodus from England , Scollai
and Wales is increasing , the numb
of immigrants from Ireland is d
creasing. During December the nui
bur of immigrants from KniliUi ;
Scotland and Wales was i ) , 181 , win
the number from Ireland was 2,01
For the six months ending Dccomb
III , the Emerald isle sent us ' . .7,07
while from the other iilnnds 52,7 !
persons came. The apparent renat
for this is the Iiirgoinvcstmontn mac
in this country by the English ai ;
Scotch , and the increase of silver an
gold mining nnd reducing enterprise
that form nn important industry i
Wales. Colonization schemes in th
country are being undertaken by EIIJ
lish philanthropists and others , an
extra inducements nro offered tho1
people to migrate. On the otlu
hand , the disturbed state of Irish n
fairs has rendered it impossible fc
many who would come to obtain tli
necessary means to do .so
The most pressing matter which th
now French Cabinet has on its bant
IB the commercial treaty with Enj
land. Uy mutual concession in r (
spool to the woolen duties and othc
points of difference , the rapreaentt
lives of the two nations had brougli
the prolonged and frequently intoi
ruptcd negotiations to the verge c
igreomont , and the treaty was roporl
ad to bo ready for the exchange c
lignaturos at the moment when th

rould find in n policy of strict adho-

Baron Von Schlo/or , Bismarck's
miasary to too Vatican has sot out on
lis momentou * journey to Rome. It
i ten years or moro since the Vati-
an has hold direct communicatione
'ith an accredited envoy of Prussia ,
'ho ' present renewal of relations do-
ivos its interest and importance
ithor from the treaties already agreed
pen in principle , than from any con.
nuont exactions or concessions from
ithor of the two potentates , William
r Lee XIII. The mission is the pub-
o acknowledgment by Bismarck that
is policy has bconn failure , and that
oino is still a power.
What to do with the arrested mom-
jrs of parliament now in prison is a
iry serious problem which has been
azzling the British ministry. It is
atod that Mr.
Parnoll will give no
edges , and if ho wore lot out on there
ro of the parliamentary meeting , it
feared that ho would have a series
ovations , and would preach tin
No Rent" gospel afresh , before sot-
ng out for London. On the other
md , it has a very ugly look to keep
embers of parliament in Kilmain-
im jail while that body ia in session ,
111 still moro so as they have not
en and are not to bo tried ,
ich a thing has not hap-
nod in the British Islands since
o middle ages. The very nttcmpt to
rest the "Five Members" for n
lilical offense in 1(511 ( was the out-
eak of the civil war ; and , while theme
mo arbitrary king kept Sir John
iot in prison till his death , it ia uho
10 that no parliament met between
J arrest and his dnath. Mr. Glad-
> no ia about to force an atheist upon
o house of commons , on the ground
at Nottingham must not forfeit her
presentation. But he is quite will-
i ; to BOO Cork deprived of it by his
m act. Once moro there is one
sosuro for English affairs and quite
other for Irish.
