ton: at IS not what is 10 be after
statehood, but it is how to obtain state
hood?
These and other questions might be
asked An effort ought to be made to
find out whether or not John Henry
Smith was pelgamist when the Trib-
une supported him for president of the
constitutional convention. whether or
not it has approved of the governors
appointments of active polygamists"
to important positions in educational
snstitutions of the state; whether or not
it has been silent while aware that the
president was commissioning men TO
hold federal positions; whether or not
President Mckinley had the evidence
before him of Orson Smith and John C.
Graham being polygamists when he
appointed them postmasters- There are
a number of interesting points for the
commission to examine. without going

1t is pitiful the grief that runs over
the wires whenever a story is sent out
predicting the withdrawal of Hanna
from the craftsmanship of the national
Republican committee. 1t is said that
falling health will compel his retire
ment But it is an open secret that
leading Republicans have been remon-
strating against his continuance in the
craftsmanship for some time. One rea-
son is that his public utterances on the
trust, tariff and imperial questions sa-
vor so much of his campaign methods
that they are repugnant to the Ameri-
can people. Another is that he openly
declares his preference for the British
form of government as superior to our
own. And it has been intimated TO him
and his friends that Ohio is slipping
away from the Republican grasp be-
cause of the great antipathy TO him in
his home state, and the disrepute into
which his close relations to the presi-
dent are bringing the latter. These
hints and insinuations may have affect
ed his health, however.

The Connecticut state Senate has passed bill to permit the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad to run trains on Sunday between the hours of 10 30 Q. m. and D. m. This is posi- itively as far as the Nutmeg state will go. Sunday trains run ct other hours will have to worry along without permission of the Connecticut legislature as hereto fore. .-Poughkeepsie News Telegraph. :.
 The above is mistaken idea which g great many people have got about Con : necticut's new law on Sunday railroad ing. In fact it is twisted completely around. Briefly, the old law stated that railroad companies were allowed to run trains carrying U. s. mail and such other trains as the railroad commission CTS considered necessary before 10. 30 a. m. and after p. m. on Sundays. It was against the law to run any other trains between sunrise and sunset on Sunday. The new law simply gives the railroad commissioners power to author ise the running of necessary traing at any time between sunrise and sunset on Sunday, The new law does read s.betwsen 10. 30 in the forenoon and 3 in the afternoon" but the old law which gave the com missioners authority before 1O.3O and after o'clock has not been repealed. The law does not mention the New York, New Haven & Hartford rail. road and there really are one or two other railroads in the state.
