THE UTAH COMMISSION.

Its Report to the Secretary of the

terlor In Reference to Their Work[The present herewith to the readers of the GAZETTE the full report made by the Utah Commissson to the secretary of the Interior. A telegraphic summary was given to the press sometime ago but it was short and unsatisfactory and we know our people, whose interest in the matter has been increased by reason of the fact that our townsman A. B. Carlton is one of the members of it, will be pleased to see the report in full, which we present herewith

Office of the Utah Salt Lake November

Sir: The election for Delegate to Congress having been held in Utah Territory on the 7th inst., under the supervision of this commission, we deem it proper to report to your department the progress made up to this time in the discharge of our trust.

Since our last report, dated August 31, we appointed a registration officer for each voting precinct of the several counties, and established some additional polling places, with a view of afl'ording proper facilities lor all the legal voters. In order to conform the local law, so far as practicable, to the requirements of llie act of Congress, we were obliged to promulgate rules and regulations for the judges of election.

We next appointed judges of election, three for each polling place, about seven hundred and fifty in number. The local law requires that the judges shall be selected from both political parties, if practicable. Accordingly we Selected them, in general, from both parties but in some instances we were obliged to appoint all of them from the "Liberal party" or from the "People's party,"" because there were no eligible and qualified persons, so far as we were informed, in such precincts belonging to the other party. Commisssons were sent to each of the judges (copies of which, together with the rules and regulations, are herewith enclosed).

Iu order to procure such information as we deemed useful to the government, we addressed circulars to the registrars, and from their responses we learn that the total number of registered voters is 33,266, of whom 18,772 are males, and 14,494 are females. From their reports it appears that about 12,000 men and women are excluded from registration by reason of polygamy.

Several of the counties of this Territory are quite large in area, some of them over a hundred miles long, sparsely inhabited, and difficult of access by mail or otherwise. This has occasioned considerable delay and extra exertion in preparing for the election and receiving the returns.

The anomalous condition of this coun try and its people, together with the inherent difficulty of adjusting the local laws to the act of Congress, are such that they imposed on us great care and deliberation, lest, on the one hand, we should go beyond the limits of the law, or, on the other hand, fall short of a vigorous and effective discharge of our duties.

In the absence of instructions or judicial decisions to aid us in the iBterpretation of the law prescribing our duties, we were obliged to construe it for ourselves, and in doing so we endeavored to conform to the well-known canons for the construction of statutes, having a due regard for the evident intention of Congress in this act, construed with other acts of Congress, in parimateria. "Poiygamists and bigamists," and persons "cohabitating with*more than one woman," are, by section 8, to be exoluded from voting and helding office.

Immediately upon addressing ourselves to the discharge of our duties, we were obliged to consider the scope and extent •of this exclusion.

Did Congress intend that those only should be excluded, who, at the very time of the registration or election, .were then living in polygamy, or in "unlawful cohabitation with more than one woman If so, such a construction would render this section a perefct nullity. The means •of evasion are patent to the dullest comprehension. We therefore concluded that neither the letter nor spirit of the statute required such a narrow construction, and, in our published "Rules and regulations," we gave the exclusion a wider scope and application.

We found that the local law prescribed a certain form of oath to be taken by persons 8p} ling to be registered as voters. We adopted this oalh verbatim, adding a clause in regard to "polygamy and bigamy," and

4unlawful

cohabitation," which

we ronsidend it proper to do, in order to make the local law conform, so far as practicable, to the principles .and requirements of theact of Congress. 1H short, we were charged by the act of Congress with the duty of excluding from tiie polls and from eligibility to office, a certain class of persons. How this was to be done was not defined by the act.

We were to exclude only those who had hven convicted ol" the crime of polygamy in the courts? This construction Aould have been dtrided by everybody iu this Territory.

Wo concluded that it was the intention of Congress to leave ii largely to the discretion of the commission, to determine the meaDs of discriminating between the legal and illegal voters. This we endeavored to do in pait by the prescribed oath, which sets forth the' various qualifications, ot a li gstl voter,

e. g.,

those in

regard to age, residence, citizenship or naturalization, and freedom from the disqualifications imposed by act of Congress.

During the week before the November election the commission made an ©rder appointing five gentlemen of character and standing as aboard of canvassers of the returns of the election tor a delegate to the Forty-eighth Congress (a copy of which order is enclosed herein). On*the 16th day of November, 1882, the said board of canvassers met at the rooms of the commission and canvassed the election returns, from which it appeared that no. T. Caine had received 23,039 votes and

Philip T. YanZile had received 4,884 votes. John T. Caine having received a of all the legal votes, he was declared duly elected, and a certificate given accordingly.

Having reason to believe that it is expected by the Executive that this commission will make suggestions as to any additional legislation that may be needed to carry out the principles of the law under which the commission was organized, we would state that, in our judgment, a marriage law enacted by Congress would be an efficient auxiliary in the suppression of polygamy. It Is asserted, and generally believed by non mormons in this Territory, that plural marriage still practiced here in secret. We wonld recommend that Congress enact a law declaring all future marriages in this Territory null and void, unless they are contracted and evidenced in the manner provided by the act. For example: That all marriages shall be solemnized in certain designated places and witnessed by such persons, and registered in such public offices, as to make the proof of the nlarriage morally certain providing, also, that the person officiating in the marriage ceremony, together with the parties and witnesses, shall make their affidavits against polygamy, and set forth the time and place and other particulars relating to the marriage. Or, allow marriages to be solemnized in private but with the like guarantees of registration, affidavits, witnesses, &c., and in either case providing penalties for the violation of the act by any of the persons concerned there-

In making this suggestion, we omil the details, which can readily be supplied by refference to the marriage acts of mos of the States.

In our former report we adverted to the law of this Territory, confering on women the right of suffrage. This law was enacted by the Territorial legislatue some twelve years ago. Ot course it is competent for Congress to repeal or annul this law. Without expressing any opinion on the question of women suffrage in general, we are satisfied that, owing the peculiar state of affairs in Utah, this law is an obstruction to the speedy solution of the "vexed question."

In the prosecution of polygamy cases here it is difficult to prove the first, or legal marriage. We would suggest, as a remedy, that the first or legal wife be declared by act of Congress a competent wituess in such prosecutions.

Under the act of Congress, by virtue of whose provisions this commission was appointed, the people of Utah appear to be put upon probation until a legislative assembly, elected under the provisions of the act, shall meet and pass the requisite laws concerning registration and election.

The election tor members of the legislative assembly will be held next August and that body will hold its next session in January, 1884. It is to be hoped that it will comprise a sufficent number of members who will be disposed to bring this Territory into harmony with the sentiments of the people of other parts of the country.

We have been engaged in the discharge of our trust only a few months, not long enough to test the operation of the law as to its ultimate results. Bnt, so far, it has been a decided success in excluding poiygamists from the exercise of suffrage and we are of the opinion that the steady and continued enforcement of the law will place polygamy in a condition of gradual extinction, and that the denomination that is complained of by non-mormons in Utah and elswhere, will, at no distant day, be much ameliorated.

In accepting the trust committed to us, it is not expected by the commission, and we suppose, not anticipated by Congress nor the executive department of the government, that the desired results wonld be accomplished at once nor in the brief space of a few months but there is reason to believe that the operation of this law and other influences are setting strongly in the direction of reform, ana that the hitherto dominant faction will be supplanted by "Young Utah" in the conduct of public affairs.

There is no doubt that the enactment the law of Congress under which this commission was appointed, has agitated the public mind in this Territory to a remarkable degree. Hitherto there has been very little public discussion of political questions, and in general the people have not attended political meetings in large numbers. But we are gratified to find that in the "campaign" preceding the November election for Delegate to Congress, the people of all classes have manifested a lively interest in public afairs, and have attended the political meetings in large numbers. Many of these meetings have been held by both parties in various parts of the Territory, and able addresses have been delivered by speakers on both sides- It is an enoouragiog sign that many of the "Liberal" meetings have been largely attended by Mormons, and in many instances they have composed the chief part of the audiences. It i9 proper to add that so far as we have learned these meetings have been characterized by exceptional good order, good humor, and decorum- On Saturday night before the election, both parties held large mass meetings in Salt Lake City, and vied, with other in the display of national flags and patriotic music-

Our attention has been called to the propriety of our recommending Congressional legislation of a radical character. But we are not inclined to advise such measures, unless upon further observation and experience the wisdom and necessity of such legislation shall be demonstrated.

The area of the Territory is 84,000 miles. The population is about 150,000, about 40,000 being non-mormons, many of whom are so-called apostates from the Mormon Church.

The people are generally engaged in agricultural pursuits. Prior to ihe completion of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads there were very few nonMormon residents in the Territory. Since 1869 the business of mining has become an important interest, and from that time the total out-put is over $60,000,000 in Silver, lead, and gold

There are also valuable deposits of coal, iron, copper, and other minerals. The mines give employment to a great many persons, and have been the means of attracting a large non-mormon population to the Territory. Many of the nonmormons (or "Gentiles") are doing a prosperous business in banking, mining, and mercantile pursuits.

The legislation of Congress, as we understand it, is not enacted against the religion of any norton of the people of this Territory. The law under whi ?h we are acting, is directed against the brime of polygamy, for the extirpation of which

TBBBB HAiyris

this commission will freely use all the powers delegated to us, and will from time to time suggust to the government, such supplemental legislation as may aid in suppressing this reproach to the civilization of this age and country.

We trust that this object will be accomplished without resorting to measures destructive to local self-government, punishing the whole people, the innocent as well as the guilty, with political ostracism. At all events we are unwilling to advise such a course until the act of Congrea under which we are acting shall be more fully tested. Besides, a proper respect for the legislative branch of the government would restrain us from impeaching the wisdom of their enactment -i Sat the very threshold of the work committed to us, and long before the time expressed in the act of Congress.

If, however, the next session ot the legislative assembly, eleoted under the act of Congress, shall fail to respond to the will ot the nation, Congress should have no hesitation in using extraordinary measures to compel the people, of this Territory to obey the laws of the land.

For the commission: Very respectfully, AIIBX RAMSEY,

Chairman.

GENTLE INDIANS.

They Get Up a Little Fun Among Themse'ves Ont West.

ST. LODIS, Dec. 28.—The latest from the Indian Territory says the Chicotee party in the fight Sunday last had seven men killed. It is thought tl.e Spiochee band lost ab many more, ftniochee and party have gone into the Cherokee nation he expected to return again and keep up the disturbance. Reinforcements are hastening to Okmulkee to protect the capitol. Captain Bates, with a detachment of United States troops, is also there and the soldiers have been ordered to ??ufaula, where there is a good deal of excitement, and many of the women and children have been sent away tor safet

The trouble grew out of the old, old political division of the tribe into what is known as the "loyal" and "disloyal" parties during the war. Spiochee is now at the head of the loyal party, or what has been known as the Sands faction, and Chicotee is the principal chief of the nation and of coarse at the head of the party in power. He has some eight hundred armed men under him and Spiochee is said to be nearly as strong. Both parties are armed with all sorts of weapons and seem to be in an ugly mood, but it is thought tbe U. S. soldiers and Major Tuffs, the U. S. agenti will succeed in quieting them and restoring order.

rHE RUSHED IN

That's What Mrs. Slayback's Attorney Did When He Dismissed Her Suit. ST. LOUIS, Dec. 29.—The damage suit for $5,000 instituted by Alice W. Slayback against John A. Cockerill, for loss of her husband, Alonzo W. Slay back, was dismissed to-day at plaintiff's instance and cost. The suit was filed after the grand jury had ignored the bill against Cockerill tor killing Ool. 81ayback. Depositions have been taken by plaintiff's attomies for the past three weeks, but nothing new concerning tbe tragedy was elicited except some theoretical expert testimony. The attornies for Cockerill notified plaintiff's lawyers that they would begin taking testimony for the defense at 10 o'clock to-day, but when that hour arrived and witnesses for the defense were in readiness, the attorney tor plaintiff rushed in and said tbe suit was dismissed. The comment on this sudden action is that it is peculiar. 4
