Hon. Alexander Ramsey, Chairman or the

there has been a good deal OF nonsense IN
the papers about the commission favOring
the Mormons while the fact is that there
are whole counties where none but Mormons
reside, and. as the law is intended to make
polygamy odious and does not distranchlSe
a non-polY gamst Mormon, we could
not do otherwise than do lust what
the law does-recognze that class. SO
far as the elections are concerned, they Will
of course be carried by the Mormons. Or
course the Mormon vote, which il at least

men OF the Mormon church out of politics
and make polygamy odious especially TO the

old fellows now thrown out will be looked

general effect of the law is concerned il can
not now be determined what that Will be,
for it is of course, an experiment.
