Show " "JIOIMOV VOTIMJIX IDUIG. Ip The In Jiauapolis Journal has the 1 ' annexed paragraph: Sj "The Mormons in Idaho propose to JgJ rote at the coming election if they j$ have to wade through blooj to do It. ?8& They openly announce that they do -ffi, not intend to let a Hole thing like agl perjnring themselves by taking the jg required oath stand in their m;. g They also announce that they wdl !jf voto the Democratic ticket straight. ufj This announcement, however, aas $& unnecessary, wheneverauy queer and fej. vicious new force is projected into BBS American politics it naturally falls 1Pb! into the Democratic party." 8F The Journal, as well as many 1835 other papers at a distance from this gUpj, region, has been grossly deceived. pag The "Jloraiuns" have not "pro- pjSii poed" or 'announced" anytrjlDg &". wfilie kind. 2so rach intention has p' been expressed by any x.Tfon or IK. . juper authorised tn 'peak for the s3t "3Iormons" of Idaho. W&- It the Indianapolis Journal can wK- ' produce anything to justify its state ment that the "Mormons openly" -r secretly announce that they will i-erjure themselves., we would like to see its evideace. V challenge the proof, also of the announcement that tliey will ''vote tile Democratic Dem-ocratic ticket straight." Further, e denounce the statement of the Journal a utterly ar.d totall) fake. Atvrtioiis like these copied above have opjiean-d in the column of the Salt Lake Tnitune, and have been repeated in Idaho sheets which are little more than echoes of the organ of slandt r in this city. The prefx of the country should know, by this time, tnat at least nine times out of tin. statcn-eutK in reference to "Mormon" oflairs that appear in tlut dishonorable paper are either whole clcth lie, or fali-ihoodsto near to sarli sheer fabrication, as to be entirely unreliable. Proni the Imt-i inf jrmition we can e.li-r.in. II e Jli rnii i,s" in Idah. have imt uiimf.eiej any iuteutiun to tike the infamous oath embolic. In the auti reiaiblicaii State Const -tutiou. They certiiulj have made no "announcement" of that character. We I there IJiey will mike no attempt to participate in the political campaign in progress in Idaho. If they should do so, there is no reason that we are aware why they should want to "vote the Democratic Demo-cratic ticket straight" or otherwise. Prominent Democrats who have received support in past limes from the ".Mormon" voters in Idaho.have hae gone batk on theiragreementi, betrayed theirfrien.is,and hae proven prov-en themselves unworthy the confidence confi-dence of every honest man. In other Instances they have exhibited such ' utter lack of ordinary backbane.that &' they are to be despised almost as C-Sf much as the dcuble tongued dema- Vy punies, w hose word i not wottli a dime. I Certain Uepullicans who wont t office are endeavoring to make 6 ) aiiutlier anti- 'Mormon" issue in f Idalio, similar to that by w hich they I H formerly beguiled some timid Demo H eraU. and brilied some venial DeniL- tj . crat-o, and o gained Itvpuolican as Kf cenJancy in a Democratic Terri fe-S- tory- They will j lay this fr all It $ -- appears to be worth, but there is ab- Cutely nothing in it, as the returns Tjn,- ot the State election wiU demoE- yt s'.rate. l We- invite the Indianapolis jfjf Journal and other papers thathavi -S- i-choed tlie lies on this sulject ! forged in the falsehood factory it, F$ thii city, to watch the otlicial re- is pjrts of the I daho election, aad then fc' . to tell tne etAbh-hed truth in n & garden tins autl-'Mormon" story, r' which we denouueeas utterly wlth- gV Jt foundation or excuse.
