Show ITS IDIOTIC COMMENT. The Descret News', the. church .organ, appears to havo gone clear daft in its comment on the results of tho liquor election. As evidenco of it, wo.quotc a part of. what it said last night editorially edi-torially on that question, as follows: We have, an. clement, horo that habitually habitu-ally opposes everything in.whloh the "Mormons" urn Interested, and greedily devours overythlng lp which they can dlHcovor tho sweet odor of nntl-"Mor-monlsm." They will vote for saloons and Rambling hol) and brothels as "ncfcnclcH of civilization,'' hoping to Induce In-duce young- "Mormons" to j?o astray from tho faith of their father. That is a most extraordinary piece of vilification. There' is. no such clement cle-ment here. But since it is an absoluto certainty that a largo number of Mor mons must havo .voted "wot' in this city on Tuesday, the iittornnce of the church organ is as insane as it is malicious. ma-licious. - It will certainly bo news to the largo number of Mormons who voted "wet," that the election was a test of church faith as' between Mormons Mor-mons and non-Mormons, and that when voting "wet," they voted to oppose everything iu. which tho Mormons aro interested, and greedily devoured everything every-thing in which they can discover the sweet odor of auti-Mbrmouisni. It will be a scandalous surprise to those Mormons who voted "wet" to find that they voted for saloons and gambling hells' and brothels ns agencies of civilization, civ-ilization, hoping to induce young Mormons Mor-mons to go astray from the faith of their fathers thereby. Such fanatic howls as this from the church organ aro at once evidences of .the deepest bigotry, and of lack of intelligence in-telligence aud common sense. No wonder won-der the "idry" cause suffered on being be-ing in the hands of such idiotic fanaticism. |
