and of all things else in Utah that have
ensued since the Mormon victory on the
Cullom bill, have been shaped by the con-
sequences of the steps by which the bill
was defeated. Mr.. Cannon has remained
the undisputed master of the field.
Through the joint cause which his son
made with Secretary Blaine, Senator Ed
munds and others, the Mormon institu-
ton has come to be reckoned as lead
ing factor with which all parties and all
interests must deal. 1t is recognized in
the councils of the Republicans, it is q
thorn in the side of the Democrats. Where
all parties which were not part of 1t
made common cause against 1t prior to
1890, all parties since that time have made
common cause to gain it's favor, or have
stood at the edge of the anxious preci~
pice lest they should lose it. Mormonism
has assembled from loss of almost every
thing it deemed dear to 1t to a position
where it can virtually name its own price
and be reckoned according to its own esti-
mate.

HOW BLAINE WAS WORKED.
The Crafty "Game" Played by the
Mormon Cannon to Secure BIaine's

From Ainslee's Magazine
When James G. Blaine was Secretary
of State under Harrison, the Gentiles of
Utah under pat" H. Lannan, strove to
push through Congress a bill disfran-
chising the Mormons because of continued
polygamy. The churches way out of the
difficulty is told by the official historian
of Mormonism, Bishop Whitney, some
what as follows:
George @. Cannon was sent to Wash
ington in company with Bishop II. B.
Clawson and Col. Isaac Trumbo as a last
resort against the bill and while in
Washington Mr.. Cannon sent his son
Frank ]. (afteTward a United States SEN
ator from Utah and Col. .Trumbo to con-
fer with Mr.. Blaine. Mr. Whitney adds:
ION separate occasions Frank j Can
non and Col. Trumbo after. appealing in
vain to Senator Edmunds and other stall
warts of the Republican party-wilh
which both these young men sympathiZed
sought the presence OF the Secretary of
State Hon. James G.. Blaine, and so i'm
pressed him with the imDolicy of the act
contemplated by Congress that he used
his potent influence against it. One of the
arguments used by them, and that doubt
less had great weight with the Plumed
Knight and other leaders of the Repub-
lican party was that Utah was not hope
lessly Democrauc;' that many Of her
people were indoctrinated with Republic
can prlnciples-notably protection-and
that it was suicidal to antagonize the
clement that might yet make Utah a Re-
publican state"
But there was in the course taken with
Mr. Blaine a piece of policy worthy Of
men who were no tyros either in state
craft or priestcraft. 1t gained the inter-
position Of that powerful mans hand to
prevent the passage Of the disfranchise-
ment bill and at the same time it prom
Used to put the party affiliations Of the
Mormon church in exact line with the
wishes of the men-"rhe Ring" as the
Mormons had chosen TO call them ever
since the days OF the polygamy fight-who
had attempted to pass the bill.

From the Rogton Globe

No part Of the work done by the wood
choppers in the Maine forests is more in
teresting than the marking of the logs
with the brand of the individual or firm
to whom they belong. Every log, like
every animal on cattle range. must be
marked before 1t starts out in the world
Log marking is something of an art.
Each mark must be cut distinctly, so
there can be no chance for dispute as 20
the mark. and the mark must be cut
deep enough to withstand the serubbing
and grinding the log gets in going down
the long and rocky river drive from the
forest to the mills.
