PRICE S5 CENTS A BOX. MOttMONISM. 1 politicians are hard p«t to fOf|t times to khow what "the coming is going to l»e, They rareij' shnpu determine an ipsne, but l^id it ntor^o their purpose to sit still and wait ®jn- til tliej* are pretty certain, in tlM^r own minds, what is going to be B^e popular thing,: that determined, th^r pu»h themselves ahead and to one wiko didn't know the facts in the case, titly would seein to be ^lendera of PM*#c opitiiou.M i Comparatively yottln Inen can niember well how, in those pro-eluv«ffy days l»etore the war, politicians hardly dared to opeir their mouths. Tlie men who were Outspoken ant i-slavtry luen were not polittcians. Neither the Democrattc or the Whig par% dared to coAie out In opposition to the curse of human slavery. The D«iu$- cratic party stood up in defense of that cufse. The people, indej^nde^t of the politicians, became antl-sil:ivery, and the Republican party writ the re sult. That partv came into existence, not at tite call of political managers aud piaunerf, but in response to an en lightened and quickened public senti ment. Tlie politicians did *11 they could to keep slavery out of politics, but In spite of them it came, ami some of tliem. when they could effect noth ing by longer resistance, flopped Ov|t and suddenly beciiuie rampant autl* slavery men. and aspired to- the posi tion of "leaders*'in tlie new party. There is to-day a question that Is of most vital importance to the people of this country, one that, demands Imme diate attention and action, ami if It shall not receive it soon. 4h« solution will almost certainly involve bluodf- shed or national disgrace, aad possibly both. The iustitutiou of Xloruiouisni is a standing shame and disgrace to our government. .Under .the guise ol religion, it threatens all therft is «f sneredncss iwid safety in our social otv gauization. It demands tiiat bigam| be made lawful; that the liunie wit$ all Its sweetness and powerful ind«- ence for good sliall be destroyed, am$ that prostitution shall be legalised. For years tlie'territory of Utah has been standing at the doom Of Congres* knocking for admission 10 the I'liioit Other, territories with have l»eeri admitted, but this one IMS been kept out. The Republican party, so long ** it kept control iu <Jougi-c:s£. steadily refused to admit Utah with its polygamous institutions, us a State aud in that position the party has had tlie indorsement of decent public opiu- ioneverywhere i» tlie country. But the control ol Congress has passed into tlie bauds of tlie democratic party. Is it sale to say that that part)' can re sist the pressure for the admission of Utah, or that it will care to resist at all? The parties are closely matched, and the accession of two or three Con gressmen aud two Senators is a consid eration that will go a great way to justify any act to ttie average isDcmo- craiic politician, with whom the motto is "Get political power--honestly if possible, but, someway or anyway, get political power."' Tlie Utah Moruious don't care a straw what poiiticai party grants tlieIr request, only so they did it, and will agree to endorse aud sup port that party for all time to come. Politicians are not saying anything about the Mormon question, and prob ably the most of theiu are well satis- lied that the question should not be made an issue in politics. It is very certain t lie curse will never be eradica ted until it is wiped out by political action. Public attention ought to be directed to this vile institution, and public sentiment educated up to a poiutWhcre political parties will not dare to ignore it. This last "relic of barbarism'* In our land should be wiped out as completely as its sister relic,hu man slavery, was. Indian Territory is not the des ert originally reported to be, but a very fertile country. An effort is now being made to secure, thpough act of Con gress, its organization into a regular Territory, devested of its peculiar In dependence as a vast Indian reserva tion. This is very bitterly opposed, aud this opposition is entirely just, except in so far as it is hostility to the building of railroads through the Ter ritory, or "the Nation." as it Is popu larly styl«d. Connection by rail be tween the States of Texas and Kansas must not be hampered by Indian ob struction. A seriesW commercial swindles has been discovered by the Boston Herald. It says there are several gangs of fraudulent ccmmission merchants doing buisness there under an organized leader who supplies all the capital required. The method is to obtain consignments of all kinds of produce on credit by aid of fictitious circular quot ing high prices, as tlie law does not reach them, the buisness is still iu a thriving condition, MUN8HAWV1LLE. _ EDITOR PI.AINDBALER 'Wj| hare floe sleighing li«r« as Well as the sur rounding country and pretty bracing weather.

Jan. isth, 1870, The report of the yellow fever com missior agrees with the opinion of prominent medical men that the fever germs in the South are not wholly eradicated and that unless strong and efficient measures are taken to pre vent It the desease«rill re-appear ear ly next season and spread distress and death throughout the whole country.-- Incoming vessels so often bring conta- geous diseases and where communities are already surcharged with only half distroyed fever germs, the result is disastrous in the extreme. Local pre ventives and all possible safeguards will be adopted in any case, but the urgency of the situation demands more than that, and to this end Scientific men and true philanthropists are en deavofiug to interest the Government In the best known process of disenfec- tlng vessels, the frccsing or cold air process, Invented by Prof. Granger,of London, who is now in this city by in vitation to explain it. By means of steam ships furnished with an ice ma chine and pnmps, suspected or infec ted vessels may be met and purified at a safe distance from the shore in little time and thus be saved the discomforts and risks of quarantine. This method also allows fruit cargoes an'd other food and necces*ities in time of sickness to be received freely, and does away com pletely with half the distress and de privation attending the exclusion of markets. Proft Granger Is also ready to put into operation other of his In veiitious by which houses long closed may be purified as well as clothing, furniture an:l the like. Congress is fairly at work again and after their long holiday of rest mem bers are taking up their work quite vigorously. It is a fact to be lamented that far too much time is spenton petty business in Congress, partisan and personal matters being continually ou the string and consuming precious time and attention that ought to be given to business which concerns the whole country.

Just so. teretted in eotne o? the facts thus elic ited. and I made the following ex tracts from'official reports relative to our trade with Brazil. flie following figure* ftiiow the •mount of general imports and exports of Brazil from 1870--71 to 1875-76: > Im ports $471,570.859.50. Exports 577,041,492.00. During that time the im ports of tlie United Statss from Brazil ' amounted to. 374,148,500.00. And the exports of the United States to Bra zil amounted to only 48,883,555.00. The foregoing statement sho*vs the mere nothingness of United States ex ports to Brazil, while the imports from that country indicate that we are the purchasers of more than one-half of her entire export*. Instead of paying for the same in product of our own, we are compelled to send our gold coin to Europe in payineit for Brazilliau pro duce, .tnd with that gold tlie supplies of Brazil are purchased, every article of which could aud should go from oui own country aud bo «>f our own produc tion. And why Is this? Simply be cause of tlie superior commercial and postal facilities furnished by the Eu ropean governments. There are at the present time nine regular estab lished steamship linos between Europe and South America, and all are receiv ing cornpeusation under long contracts for carrying the mails, amounting to Ute or six millions dollars annually from each government, while the trade of the United States until last year had no direct steam communi cation. ar.d the new line now iu oper ation, and which has developed a good ileal of of valuable trade, has not tbe aid even of a postal contract from our Government.

It Is honest Want, often, and It seeks only honestly and truly its own. It may not be riotous, or communistic, or unjust. It may bo unfortunate, patient, manly. Seeing grave partialities existing it may de mand a fair field and no favor. Look ing wicked Monopoly square 5« the face.it may declare for equal rights to have and to hold, and assert its equal mastery over things needful and of worth. Under rule of the wrong, it may proclaim freedom and independ ence, with individuality, strong enough to compel recognition. Want Is to-day a power In,our land. It were idle to deny it. Men are without work, or earning meager wages, who should be saving money. All will not • agree as to tlie causes of silent looms,' cold forges, deserted factories, unop- crated mills;all will admit that there should be a remedy for conditions so sad. All will cpncede that Monopoly should not beget pauperism, that La bor should be respected of Capital, tiiat extravagance should not stand In the way of prosperity. It is too true that stocks and bonds have been serv ing the rich these many years, to the detriment of the poor. It is beyQtid dispute that banks have paid divi dends when ordinary business, and the service employed under it, have seen no profits to divide. The grievance of waut is that it is hot ministered to in the measure of opportunity. Capi tal is certainly sellish, monopoly is al ways grasping, partisan state craft is deceitful and unkind. Human nature holds its own. Want will never be sat isfied, altogether. I ts grievance to-day may wear another face to-morrow, and be still a grievance. True. Yet^ the people cry for bread in many homes; wealth vaunts itself wickedly in sight of them; equality seems a lie. What s h a l l b e d o n e a b o u t I t ? - ^ Let those who do and claim to do, fail not in doing. Let there toe no waste of the people's wealth upon the sensibilities of a few. Let private economies run through official conduct, in the common interest. Let all earn more and spend less. Let favoritism cease, save as won by actual merit.-- Let the people stand up boldly for themselves, and be their own true wit nesses in true Republican Democratic way, at the ballot box. If- tfeesp * surer way. «@rlt has been alleged that female suffrage has proven a failure in Wyom ing Territory. One of the reckless al ienators has gone so far as to say that where lovely women can vote if she will, she won't--that not half the wo men Iu Cheyenne has ever casta vote since the first two elections--that only one woman has ever been elected to office by the people of the Territory-- that although there are seperate poll ing places for this new political ele ment, respectable women keep away from the polls and stay out of politics, and, worse than all that, the only wo men who take an interest in elections are those of the baser sort! Miss Ma tilda Hindinau, of Colorado, where la dies are not allowed to vote, says that, the statement that female suflragp^- Wyoniing Territory Is H failure k» un true, and that the women vote in a nicely carpeted room iu a hotel, and that the judges are three bright^ intel ligent females, assisted by two digni fied aud pleasing men--that there is no electioneering--that they vate on the average in twenty-eight seconds, and then resume their knitting and chew ing gum--that the men keep quiet and don't spit ou the stove, and that moth ers trundle their baby-carriages to tho polling place, deposit ..their vote ami retire, ^n several cases they have at tempted to deposit the baby in the box instead of the ballot, but this was clearly owing to the novelty of the situation. ••"i ITALIAN METHOD WITH DirHTBpaSA. -r-The two methods of treating diph* theria with chlorate of potash and hy- rate of chloral, have been combined by Dr. Cesare Clattaglia of Rome, and as he claims, with remarkable success.
