Politics.
In Q conversation with +. M. Huffaker,
Esq, Of Virginia City, yesterday, a repre-
sentative Of the SENTINEL alluded to the
revolution recently caused in the county
government Of Storey by John s. KaneeD,
the new member OF the Board of County
Commissioners. Said our reporter:
"Do you know John s. Kaneen whom
Gov. Adams appointed County Commits
sioner to fill the place made vacant by the
death Of Commissions Weber? 2"
Mr.. Huffaker Certainly; everybody on
the Comstock knows Mr.. Kaneen. He
has always been a prominent man among
US. He is now Superintendent Of the gas
works OF Virginia City.
R.-There has been some controversy
about his politics. Do you know whether
he is . Democrat or a Republican
Mr.. H.-Nonsense; there has been no
controversy Of that sort in Virginia.
Everybody there knows John Kaneen as Q
Democrat.
R.-Have you any ground for asserting
positively that he is q Democrats
Mr.. H.-The best in the world. He was
. candidate in the last Democratic Con-
vention of Storey County for County Com
missioner, but was beaten for the nomi-
nation by William Oliver. He has also
served two terms as Mayor OF Virginia
City, having been elected to that Office as
a candidate on the Democratic ticket both
times.
R-Haye you any other evidence of
Mr.. Kaneen's Democracy?
Mr.. H.-Hsyen't / convinced you !? Yes.
l have. He is a liberal man in his polit-
icsl views Of local affairs, and in such
cases he picks out his ticket from the can
didates presented by both parties. On
national questions he votes the Democratic
ticket always.
R.-How do you know this?
Mr.. HE told M so n day in the
course OF q neighborly conversation. More
thar this, Mr.. Kaneen has been mentioned
time and again as q candidate for Governor
ON the Democratic ticket, but not being
either q politician or an ambitious man he
has never pitched 10 to get the nomination
R.-How about the effort OF some OF
our Republican friends to make it appear
that the good works of Mr.. Kaneen as q
reform Commissioner ought to be credited
to their party?
Mr.. H.-Oh, our friends, though usually
very modest, as you know, are extravagant
in their ~pretensions this time. The credit
Of Mr.. Kaneen's good work is due first to
himself, as . man and . worthy citizen
but il either party has any right to share
the honor with him 1t 10 certainly the
Democrats.
Mr.. Kaneen is q Democrat, and holds
his Office as Commissioner by virtue Of his
appointment thereto by Q Democratic
Governor.

Tho Mormon Racket.

SrLSAAL ~ Ihh bENfANELtl
SAN FRANcIsoo, Aug. 2.--Gov. Murray
was interviewed by q Chronicle reporter On
the Mormon question. He said that IN
the 9Th an election will be held under the
Edmunds Act, and the result will be .
monogamist Legislature. Being asked -
to what advantage would accrue to Utah
under the change, he unhesitatingly re-
piled that he considered . polygamist Leg
islature the more preferable Of The two. I
admire the robber, explained the Governor,
II l admire him ct all, who enters your
house and does the robbiug, more than
his chums who stand guard and divy the
spoils. I therefore think such change o.
y expected will not be for the better.
Murray does not think the Edmunds Act
will solve the polygamy problem, even II
administered to its utmost growth, and In
bis opinion polygamy has not decreased
any since II went into effect.
