report of the address made by judge strickland yesterday to the grand jury at provo the judge has evidently vently experienced that feeling eo so well known among members of many religious denominations by the name of change of heart whether his colleague who is said baid to be an ex minister of a church which strongly urges this change as essential has been the means of converting him or whether his trip to washington his unsuccessful interviews with members of congress or his failure to obtain the for which be he went has been that means does not transpire but that he lie has been converted is evident to all who read his remarkable iid ltd address dress it JU may be however that he like carnal seamen in a storm turn torn pious converts and reform 10 he accuses the press of this country of making wrong assertions in relation to the objects of these courts we might dispute this statement of his and prove its incorrectness but in this his hour of repentance and softening of heart why should we do so why mar the graciousness of his acknowledgments knowledg ments the breadth of his admissions or the correctness of the remainder of his statements by disputing the truthfulness of the assertion that the which he tn tou to obtain were not to be devoted to lue tue purpose of running the courts here in opposition to the people rather bather iel iet leus us read the judges address as that of a humble penitent who is endeavoring to retrace his steps and to get into the right path and who though not fully v conscious of his wrongdoing wrong doing on all points is striving to obtain that measure of grage grace which will enable him to perceive and fully repent of all his misdeeds the intelligence which ha he is so sweetly confides to the grand jury respecting the kind feeling of pres Pies president ident grant towards this people overcomes us the news csmos is most t gratify ing and comforting how streng strengthening t hening also hiso the assurance to the jury t hat that they should be protected in their d duties as jurors they have nothing to fear now even though they are mormons Mor monal mons well we that is judge strickland and president grant have no prejudice against mormons cormons Mor mons we wonder how this statement will suit judge mckean he will scarcely be pleased at being called a crazy person parson nor will he participate in judge strick lands linds gladness over the fact that sen bible sibie men teel feel th that thal at mormonism has rights ag as well aa as other lother isms clims 11 we have been beeri trying to persuade the judiciary that this was the fact for a iong long time that the schemes of the ting zing ring were bound to result in complete and fand signal failure that the railroad was vas bringing a class of people here liere who would see for themselves and would not mot sanction the intrigue and wron wrong 9 which were being used against the cormons mormons Mor mons but it required this trip of judge Strick stricklands lands to washington to completely satisfy him and others of the true state of the case now K ow that he is converted we hope that he will enlighten others and convince them that isaida it ills is just il s t as wrong to fight mormonism as a it would be to fight methodism we hope that he will show the chief justice that if he wishes to make his court respected by the people he must abide by the law not override it that he must remember that though he is a judge he is not therefore the legis degiso estive assembly that though he is an important man yet the executive the judicial and the legislative functions are not combined in his single person and that if he has the desire to make his court respected he must cease his usurpations when judge strickland shall have accomplished this then will he have given the highest proof that hlf hie heart bas has really been changed |
