Show FAIRCHILD STILL FAIR We clip thp following from the Philadelphia Phila-delphia Tuna According to correspondence relative to the three hundred and seven Mormon converts con-verts who arrived in this city Wednesday on the SritliK King it has been decided that there is no restriction in the emigration laws which could prevent them from land in In answer to a letter from President Garrett of the Board of Public Charities of this city relative to the landing Acting l glrre Secretary i theTreasury Fairchild reaffirms his action in reference to the landing of such immigrants in New York and says there is no warrant of law keeping them from so doing unless they are paupers and that in case the Mormons arc found to be of I the latter class they should be dealt with without regard to their type It will be observed from the above that Acting Secretary Fairchild talked the same common sense to the meddlers med-dlers in Philadelphia that he did 10 the i bigoted Emigration Commissioners at New York It appears difficult for I some people to understand that Mormons have the same rights and liberties that other people have and that the laws of the country can only affect them in the same manner as I they do people placed under like circumstances cir-cumstances The Mormon has been singled out for so long as an object for I special legislation and special judicial ralingr that officials generally are coming com-ing to regard it that whenever a Mormon Mor-mon is brought before them they atones at-ones conclude that some extrajudicial proceedings may be in order to make him guilty of an infringment of some lav or rule if his act is not banned by the laws as usually administered and a wail of disappointment is sen up if the dispensation asked for admitting of extraordinary applications of the law is not granted and the thing is noted down as something that must be urged upon the attention of Congress so soon as that body is convened |
