The Chicago News is a large.
eifht column folio, “cram full" of
to egratgh and general new, short
and Bi y editorials on the topics of
the ay, and it is independent in
politics.
Ova dispatches today in regard to
the Idaho legislature indicate that
Mormonism, instead of dying out,
as many have triedto persuade them
selves, is fast attaining domination
over that territory as Well as Utah.
The latter is using every means to
gain admission to the Union as a
state, although her people know that
our national constitution and all our
laws are intolerant of polygamy. It
is claimed by some that the next
Congress, being democratic, will ad
mit her, polygamy and all, for the
sake of gettingademoerstie state.
We do not believe it. Whatever
lengths the leaders of that political
faith might be disposed to go in or
der to strengthen their party in the
nation, the rank and file of the demo
cracy would never sanction such in
famy. No government or state can
flourish as long as an important
feature of its make-up is founded in
bestial lust and fanatical bigotry,
and Utah must purify herself or re
main in a territorial state. Win
dom‘s Utah Commission is practically
a failure, except as to what it is
pleased to term‘hopoful indications;"
and it must have more direct and
special legislation even at that.
Mormon elders and missionaries are
no less determined to evade all laws
looking to the abolition of polygamy
than industrious in building up their
Church. Polygamy is insidious in
its growth, and will probably have to
behandled yet as slavery was before
the country is rid of it.
01m correspondeutfiin his com
ments on the steamer Hope, has
opened up a subject that should 0c
cupy the attention of Port Town
send’s business men. We need not
only regular steam communication
with the Islands and Whatcom coun
ty, in ordertoiuepire business con
fidence and build up trade, but a mail
route should be extended to New
Westminster. A few years ago an
efl'ort was made through Hon.o.‘
Jacobs, then Delegate in Comm-033,!
to secure mail facilities betwven‘
Semiahnoc and New Westminster
direct, but it was tutilethrough the
unwillingness of the Canadian gov
ernmont to reciprocate. The real
trouble seemed to be that a certain
member of the Ottawa Commons ro
eided at Victoria and was interested
in diverting trade from the mainland

Connecting thmn with Seattle on tho

Townsend business man aru interest
ed in seeing not only proper mail fa
cilities are aflbrdod to San Juan and
Whatcom counties, but that boats
large enough and comfortable are
kept running in a manner to accom
modate tho trade—and above all,thoy
should sun that the people along tht~
route are enabled to trade here to ad
vantage instead of sending beyond.
The trade is naturally tributary to
this place, and ahould be fostered.
Freight Traffic.
Last week We had occasion to refer
to the numerous complaints about the
Emma Hayward being sent to San
Juan for lime when all weather prob
abilities pointed to irregularity on
her mail and passenger route. Re
cently the Starr was detained at Port
Gamble taking on lumber for Iron
dale so that her mails and passengers
were not landed here till six hous be
hind the usual time. Apropos to
these matters, the Post-Intelligenccr
says:
The time has about come for the
O. R. 81. N. Company to plat a freight
boat permanently on t eir various
routes in these waters. A cheap boat,
but a goodone, is needed, one that
can go to Laconner, Olympia, or Vic
toria, one to carry lime. lumber, grain
and merchandise. As new the mixed
(passenger and freight) boat+ are
compelled to run with the greatest
and most inconvenient irregularity.
The North Pacific was detained bere
taking on freight last Wednesday for
three hours, and the same nig it at
Tacoma was detained four hours long
er, discharging the same freight and
taking on new freight. Last Fri
day, the Emma Hayward, in order to
get a lime freight, left here five hours
ahead of her usual time, and on her
return the day after was twelve hours
behind her time. These things are
happening continually, and to the
public are exceedingly vexatious and
injurious. The company have lately
had a freight boat in the grain trade,
and people living along her route
have realized the benelit such a boat
confers upon them. Let that benefit
be extended to the whole Sound, any
we.

tertainment will be presented at Good
Templars’ Hall on Monday evening next.
From all reports. and from the adver
tisement elsewhere. we may safely pre
dict such an aproariously jolly time as
people here have not seen for many a
day. The followin'g, from the S. l".
Chronicle, a careful critic. will give our
readers an idea of the general character
and worthiness of the affair: “On
Thursday evening we are to be favored
with the Andrews & Stockwell‘s Ideal

pantomime. specialty and spectacular
artists. In the pantomime department
