WASHINGTON, September 1.-THE
Norman question is likely to attract a
good deal of attention again next ses-
sion. The Edmunds Law is practically
failure so far as it's true objects are
concerned. 1t probably has disfranchis-
ed few thousand pOlygamists, but as
explained by ex-Delegate Cannon it
only affects small percentage of the
population of that great Territory, for
only small percentage of the MOrmOns
are polygamists.

Adams, disappeared. One hundred and
fifty sturdy grangers gathered and after
some search found Miss Annie cOnct al
ed at Cedar Grove, in house where the
elders were stopping. She had been
converted to the Mormon faith and bap-
tized into the church by the elders. She
was persuaded to return home with
great difficulty. The grangers took the
| two elders to the woods, stripped them
naked and gave them a coat of tar and
feathers. They were then compelled to
run for their lives on pain of being
] lynched. The country is greatly excited.

THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.
Collapse of the Republican Boom for Want
of the Needful.

ofthe NeedfuI.
COLUMBUS, o., September 16.-There
has been considerable talk recently to
the effect that the bottom has dropped
out of the Second Amendment business.
1t is difficult to keep up boom for a
long time in Ohio, There has been
changes in the tide in the two great
parties owing to the bOOms exhausting
their force. The Democratic started in
to the campaign with every thing in
their favor. The Republicans got up a
sort iOf mushroom boom by abusing
Hoadly, and charging everything to
their opponents. The tlutter has spent
all its force, and now is the time for the
formation of real sentiments that
sticks his set in the cause of the Demo-
cracy is wrOwiDg in favor, and it will
have boom next Saturday, when the
campaign will be formally opened up,
that will last till after the election. The
Republicans are feeling the reaction
and the trouble of holding up an arti-
fetal boom. In this the Second Amend
ment advocates are suffering. They
started early and got up a tremendous
agitation, which they cannot hold out
on. They had the pressure so high that
there is danger of something bursting.
Parties who came in from the rural
counties say now that the Second
Amendment might have carried last
week but that it is failing, and the
pressure for it will get still lower in
another month. There are some who
begin to see that prohibition means
free trade, and not regulation by license,
taxation or otherwise. The iwaning
spirit is said to be noticed in the fact
that both sides of the question are now
being talked about. The politicians say
that the temperance question will not
be of so much force as was expected.
The Republican State Committee, with
its other troubles has struck a snag.
1t is out of money, and has sent out a
pitiful cry in several directions. They
could not get any of the old hackers to
put up for them this year, and all they
have had came from the little drippings
by assessing the clerks in the State
House, employees at the penitentiary and
asylums. This is gone, and the parties
will not be bled any more. Meantime
the force at headquarters has not been
paid, and about half of them have quit
work this week. 1t is an old story here
that claims for committee room service
are not worth the paper they are writ
ten on after the election. Governor
Foster, even, Is hard up, and, besides,
has enough putting-up of his own to do.
He is trying to get some help for them
in the East.
The Republicans are trying to work
their local tariff clubs to some effect, in
their present fit of desperation. Mr..
L. Saniel, of New York, is still here, CO.
operating with the Republican State
Committee, and he has agents out in
the localities where protective tariff is
popular, but the reports are to the effect
that he has not had meeting of any
dimensions. The Democrats are con-
Quoting an active campaign in this
county, and constantly gaining
ground,

CANTON. OHIO WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 49, 1885,

President John Mcbride, says: 81 have
known Mr.. Warwick for six years, and
know him to be u friend of miners and
all wOrkingmen, and the attempt of
Andrew Roy to influence miners against
him will not pan out, for Mr.. Roy does
not carry the Ohio coal miners in his
breeches, pocket. He may think he can
swing them into line for Foster and
Foraker, but he will find out that mi

The Democratic State Convention of
New Jersey, last week, nominated on the
for Governor. He has been a leading
man in the State for years, served in the
Legislature and held other State and
municipal offices. Three years ago he
came very near being nominated over
Gov. Ludlow. The contest was very
earnest one for the nomination, and
there is little doubt of the success of the
candidate.

The latest result of Mahoneism in Vir-
ginia, is a community of 1900 persons
on POquOsOn Island, at the mouth of the
York river, without postmaster. The
trouble is said to arise from the fact that
there is only one Malone man on the is
land, and he is IN state of chronic in
toxicatiOn which entirely units him for
performing the duties of the office. In
consequence, the island has been with
out postmaster for five months.
