Tt provides for the certification of mar- riages in the territory,and fixes penalties for violation of its provisions; that the records of marriages, or anything in the nature of & marriage ceremony, civil or ecclesiaatical, lawful or unlawful, in any territory, shall be subject to inspection at al' reasonable times by a judge, magis- trate or other officer of justice under a penalty not to exceed $1,000 fineand two years' imprisonment, It provides for the annullment of all laws permitting woman suffrage in Utah for any public purpose whatever; pro- vides fcr the annullment of all laws of Utah for identification of voters, and for recognition of the ca_acity of illegitimate children to inherit, and which confer jurisdiction on probate courts, except in respect to deceased persons and the guar- dianship of infants and deceased per- 8s0ns, 1t provides for the annullment of all laws which provide that prosecutiors for adultery can only be commenced by com- plaint of the husband and wife, and per- mits that such prosecutions mayhereafter be instituted in the same way as prosecu- tions for other crimes.

This, it was conceded, would probably lead to a heated political controversy. 1f, however, the republican senators should not , directly force this issue, but if they should confine themselves to general allegations of local disorders and violence and not assert that the democratic party fostered and en- «ouraged the spiritwhich gave rise to such disturbance, it was decided to lot the re- publicans have tho debats mainly to themselves. The democratic member- ship of the new senate committee on fisheries and expenditures of public funds, and increase of reveral old stand- ing committees as provided for in the mow code of the senate rule was then disoussed, but the caucus adjourn- ed without action thereupon.
