The candidates are most all kneeling Q

THE candidates are most all kneeling at |
the shrine Of Miss Polygamy. Down
upon their marrow bones, with hands
clasped and upturned faces, they tell her
how lustrous her eyes are, that her hair
is of brighter hue than the gold yielded
by the soil of SOnoma. that her teeth are
more brilliant than pearl, that her breath
is more fragrant than the rose, and her
voice is sweeter than that Of the nightin-
gales; but there she stands, cold and
firm, and the marble hearted maiden will
not extend the had of welcome to any of
them seeking her aid. Cruel maiden.
A MARRIED candidate, who has been
lately making a number of trips down to
Panaca, has been threatened with suit
of divorce by his better half. Notwith.
standing that he insists that he goes there
for no other purpose but to solicit votes,
yet the wife persists in telling him that
this thing of making the Panaca girls
presents and then kissing them for their
mothers, is not the proper way to cleo
tioneer. But what do the women know
about electioneering, anyhow. These
wives are always interfering in the bust
ness of their husbands.
Nor DEAD.-W. 7. Bell, one of the

hundred.
