whole country pretty generally there was an article in the tha above paper by ross rob gen webster a baptist missionary stationed in provo to which the editor francis E clark called the special attention of his bis readers in part he ha eaid of mrs ilya webster that she is ia thoroughly familiar with the gigantic evil she ehe portrays so eo indignantly dign antly here are a few extracts from mrs webster which I 1 nhsn abs tbs mormon writers wl will it quietly lot let pass RS as they have done the utterances of others who wha have to confound them it is a mighty man made system 1 these people are slaves to this great hierarchy A mormon TIllon women once said toa to a missionary those in authority dont want us ua even to shake hands with you this mormon added I 1 I 1 our oar articles of faith say we have religious liberty I 1 should like to know kaow what kind of liberty it is we wa are slaves their deacons are boys boya about fourteen years yeara old the bible says gays that deshons were ivere men full fall of the holy ghost and wisdom they the have latter revelations revelations direct from god and do not need the bible mormons cormons t tie re taught that all christians belong to satan christians christiana should awake to what thib mormonism means and go forth to meet their teachers of 0 falso doctrines sash action on the part of 0 christians is of vital importance and may save hundreds from the dreaded snare persons may be ba saved from ba coming converts bot bat once in the meshes it requires nerona struggling straggling to gat free it atia is the old story of the spider anti and ahr fly mormon missionaries return to utah w with ith awful tales of wickedness of christians Ghrist ians and christian churches A mormon bishop said to his hia people that abominable thing called chris dainty have its head bead laid on a block and chopped off mormonism as found in utah and mormonism as taught elsewhere are two different things we to have abundant proof of this paw few can concerts p arts are made inside to mormonism Moi monism in utah many of the doctrines doctrin ea taught are blasphemous and very much at variance with one another their doctrine have ever been adjustable 11 the tha mormon church teaches that god is a polygamist christ was wag also a polygamist recording according to the teachings of this church mary blary martha and the tha otho other mary blary were his hie wives is still taught and practiced in utah although not eo openly aa a a in years past within a block of the writer lives two men are living in polygamy oae is a city official dancing is a craze among young a and nd old the tha farewell services servi s given to mormon missionaries are jances dances immorality and profanity nd and drinking drinkin are preval nt to an all alarming degree I 1 young women ure tre known to boast of getting drunk 11 people who object to my not living anong among tha cormons mormons will please appreciate or miss misa webster B Sykes sykesville ville md there are arc in utah as many kinds of people so faras far ag character is concerned as in any other community among them are aie some whole fals falsified falsifiers ifie rs as our readers will recognize in the above and there are arc immoral al characters hero here as well as elsewhere in ti the 10 world in tho the main wo we have many more good people than bad people polygamy Y was as practiced in utah for many years and though the law against it was rigorously enforced all the family relationships of that order ot of marriage were not severed the heart strings of many in polo gamy were sorely stretched and some mori mon have bave refused utterly to abandon their families reared before there was any law against polygamy miss webster can point to no now marriages since the manifesto her accusation about christians belonging to satan is purely lier her own I 1 lor for cormons mormons entertain no such ion of their fellow men man mormonism is ia the same doctrine the world over tho the same books used by the mormon elders abroad are used here at home and the bible is the leading bool book ir in all the pulpits nothing is taught from them not sanctioned by the bible the doctrine of god being a polygamist and C christ having a plurality of wives is no yer taught and miss mies webster knows I 1 it in conclusion we au suspect that such articles wi as miss websters present are sent out to perpetuate the missi missionaries fonaries on aries 1 pay here in utah for at the th last annual conference of the baptist ministers in provo the complaint was made that no converts were being made among the mormons cormons Mor mons and support had to be received from abroad the need 3 of missionary work in utah must therefore be held beld up to the world |
