The Boston Herald saws

A biographical sketch of the career of
Martha Hughes Cannon, who ran against
her alleged husband for the Utah senate
and beat him by 1000 votes, throws some
rather vivid light on this remarkable family
episode. The fact is that Mrs. Cannon is
not the wife OF the man who ran against
her, if there is any virtue in the Jaw abol-
ishing polygamy in that state. The man
in the case married two sisters under the
Mormon regime, and when the United
States bade him reject one he refused.
Not only did he refuse, but he married two
other women, the last being the present
senator-elect. The new senator has, there
fore, no legal marital status. But being
Mormon, and believing that polygamy is
the natural state and the right one, she is
not troubled. It's queer state of things
that allows the law to be set at defiance by
one of the chosen aw-makers.

At the last session of the Vermont legis-

meet the copper mines of Ely, Strafford,

This is what the Burlington News has to
say regarding Gov. Grout's board of Nor
NAL school examiners, supervisors and COM
missioners.
1t is good board, but it is open to the
criticism that three of its four members
are members of the present legislature
Filling all the state offices from the men,
bership of the legislature is wrong in theory
and works poorly in practice, and the peo-
pie of Vermont are very weary of it. There
are plenty of good men in Vermont who
are not members of the present legislature
