Canton. Ohio, Sept. ga delegation
from Marion, Ind, arrived in Canton shortly
after O'Clock this morning and started
for Maj Jor McKinley's house before he
had finished his sleep. A delegation march
ing with bands through the streets at this
early hour was something of q novelty,
even in Canton. The Marion people num-
bered 500. Many OF them We're former
residents of Canton, having gone TO In
diana after the discovery OF natural gas
Some of the banners carried by the Marion
visitors bore the following inscription:
''22 1-2 per cent off. We have seen better
times" I'VE are Mexican greasers-nit,' ~
IAN honest dollar and a chance to earn il. j."
The spokesman, DR.. W. R. Frances, of
Marion, assured Major Mckinley that the
workin emen OF Indiana were enthusiastic
in their support OF him, and thsn the state

Mckinley made q happy response.
Among the other visitors expected today

wyandotte county, Ohio, and one from East
Springfield, Pa. A large excursion from

The DemosSilver Party and Labor.

Euitur Times. ltis amusing % read how
enthusiastic thc members Of the Demo
silver party leaders are when il GENES 70
spea king about the laboring men in their
different conferences. During the ma king
of arrangements for the Bryan meeting
quite wrauple came up In regard To the
music to be played.
The committee took magmfying glass
to reach q Conclusion whether or iOt the
Marine Band was thoroughly allied with
the labor Organizations Of the District OF
Columbia. Col. Dickson grew quite elo-
uuent, it is alleged by the local press. when
ever lie spoke Of the labor organizations.
In locking over the list OF vice presidents
for the Saturday evening meeting | notice
the name Of Alex. Wedderburn. Who is
Alex wedderburp? He is the national COM
mitteeman Of the silver party for the state
of Virginia and has a desk at national
headquarters, at the Wormley. and is in
close touch with all three OF the parties
i'll that building g-Democrat. Populist and
Silver. is Alex. Wedderburn friend of
labor organizations?
Several weeks ago, through the, efforts
Of The Times, Senator Stewart was shown
up as employing men in a Printing office
at Alexandria and paying them inferior
wages. The Typographical Union, of this
city, took up the matter and in consequence
the Senator was compelled, as a friend
Of the labor classes, which he profcssed
to be. to increase the pay of his men from
81 80 per day to So.
want to call the attention OF this same
organization to the gentleman whose name
appears on the list Of vice presidents OF
the Bryan meeting, and see il he is a
friend of the laboring man. He conducts
a printing office in this city and only pays
his men what he chose. Several weeks
ago he advertised for a foreman and offered
so per week. This, too. in a city where
there is union. composed OF from 200
to 500 members, with between $50 to
200 OF them out OF employment. and whose
scale of prices is So per day or S1S rer
week, time work, and AZ cents per 900
ems. This man offers % cents per 900
ems and says IL you don't take that he will
have his type set at his country seat where
he has an office, and bring 1t to the city
and have it made up for his presses, as he
can get all the type set he wants at %
cents per 900 ems.
As member of the Democratic coinittee
this man can control as much of the print
ing matter of said committee as can SEN
ator Stewart, and is conducting a paper
here in the interest of said party, which is
filled with silver literature. In one col
umn of his paper he asks exchanges to copy
from its columns. as all matter appearing
tehrein is officially prepared at nationeJ
headquarters. He not only prints this pa
per, but many of the silver pamphlets are
struck off in his office.
Is this right? Why not call him off? If
the Demo-silver party is sincere in all the
moves it is taking for the benefit of the
workingmen of the District. let its members
look into this matter; also the Typograph.

lily, In fact as they could buy pound Of
sugar or a yard OF calico. No inconvenient
questions were asked: a few days sojourn
at hotel was all that was necessary to
establish persons claim to the considera-
ton OF the courts. As for the causes as
signed for askin n divorce, any old thing
would do. At last the thing became so un-
speakably disgraceful that tue people OF
the Territory themselves became ashamed
OF it, and they patitioned Congress- for the
necessary authority to enact table leg
isation to check he evil. Meanwhile, how
ever, the supreme court OF tue Territory
took action and declared Il certain divorce
granted by the court below to he null and
void. because the man who obtained it was
not a legal resident there. and had come
there for no other purpose than to pro
cure it.
Now. it so happens that this man has re-
married. and consequently he and the wo-
man he took in marriage are both living
in bigamy. If this Were an Isolated case
it would be bad enough, but unfortunately
"there are Others" Probably there are
hundreds, IL not thousands of cases, to
which the same conditions apply, and if the
Supreme Court decision is a precedent,
the aDnulment of hundreds of divorces may
be looked for with all the unhappy en-
tanglement of family relations that will
follow in its wake. Many an innocent wo-
man will suffer, and to many still more
innocent children an irretrievable wrong
will bo done.
There are some States potably South
Dakota, where the divorce mills grind as
rapidly as they do, or did, iu Oklahoma.
Again, there are States in which the re-

brous. The necessity, therefore. becomes
apparent, of a general law enacted by Con-
