We trust that the position OF Senator

the position of the section which he repre-.

slavery and degradation than that from which
she has been delivered. There should be no
division in popular sentiment as respects
tits gigantic abuse of Mcrmonism. The
entire county, North, South, East and West.
should be solid in favor OF its extinction by
law. Loose divorce laws demand our otten-
