C. Goodwin's real reasons were for taking such a we or at least we are probably as near to as wo ever shall be from Goodwin's own attempts to He now intimates that he is prohibition because the of this could not him to accept by proving a case of new polygamy in Utah sanctioned by the Mormon In answer to the Independent's declaration that the reason given by C. O. Goodwin explaining why he opposes prohibition simply because the Mormons favor it is base and the editor of the Evening Telegram replies by saying that editor of the Independent is a Another very good is it The Independent and his ilk oppose the movement because the Mormons- favor To be he says that he opposes merely they dishonestly favor but this is still It is base enough to oppose anything simply because others favor but to oppose it on the ground that your enemies do not favor is the height of absurdity as well as the depth of The idea that while actively working for Mormon chiefs do not want it because are making too much money through the sale of liquor to wish to stop shows among other that every action with Goodwin is a matter t He judges that this is the case with other He understand how any one could favor movement unless he made money out of Hence the action of the Mormon chief's is-to him an unfathomable mystery I The answer of the Telegram is S. has his name at the masthead of a shady sheet called Utah He has been struggling for n good while for the reputation which a kick from the Telegram would give Maybe a few lines devoted to him would not be out of He is a scurvy doubt exceedingly whether he knows who his own father said of Goodwin's original argument against prohibition that it was of the brilliant literary hack that conceived We now leave it to the judgment of all readers as to whether or not his answer to our argument is not still more worthy of We remarked before that he is apparently one who believes it is simply not possible for men to advocate and bring about for the general good that which would mean some financial loss to themselves furnishes all people with a means of taking the measure of of saloon and life-long prater against his Mormon neighbors in and that of Mormon chiefs' is an open advertisement that whoever will his price in paltry can get After reading more of his answer to the above Goodwin's precise measure as a

marriage had been solemnized in Utah the did it that Plenty of such marriages had been solemnized or just over the knowing that even the News had admitted that even the chiefs of the church had
