late to score in rather a merciless manner the mor mons on account of their domestic relations emily indulges in such expressions pres as the wolf in cheeps clothing the largest twin of the pair if it is a twin it is a pretty large and vigorous one healthy and good tempered too mormon women powerless blinded by ignorance and prejudice dare not mb ifft up their voices against the incubus some gentiles will toady and dissemble martyrdom of civilized christian womanhood and enslavement of every noble instinct in man burning shame rotten core monstrous d evil devil led by a man whose deep machinations have outwitted th thus us far our best and noblest statesmen and so on emily emliy E mily also thinks there is sadly too much I 1 apathy generally in recerd to this mormon question and that the public the authorities especially ought to wake up to the importance of the situation and gome dome come down upon the 16 mor bror mons like a wolf on oh the fold she bhe says let every reformer north bouth south east and wet west come to the rescue of these mormon women and hurl this goliah gollab to the earth 21 all thebe these expressions show that there are some things concerning mormon matters which emily does not thoroughly understand and not nol having a thorough understanding of the subject she says some things which she would not say if she had a more perfect understanding der dar standing of it one oue fact Is that the most noisy and add demonstrative of these reformers who come e to the rescue of the mormon women happen to be so bome some ma of the most specimens of the male sex and the rescue they desi gnand endeavor to effect is one which drags woman down to the low est eat depths of degradation and leaves her there to rot our women must really be excused if they are not forward to be rescued after that diabolical fashion we speaking atso ao in behalf of the community have always been a friend to women and have endeavored to do them good all the days of our life from the mother who bore us down to our latest and most casual acquaintance it is not our habit to speak disrespectfully of womankind albeit some of th then emmay may be not precisely the kind kand of persons that we should wish them to be consequently it hurts burts our feelings to have hard bard things said bald of us by emily or any other woman and said for the sole bole reason that we have endeavored to render rend erns eras as many women comfortable happy and perfect as possible that is not returning good for good much less la is it returning good fog fud evil emily is a reformer so bo are we we begin with endeavoring to reform ourselves be then we extend our endeavors to our families then to our acquaintances L and others so far as we have influence to do it it may be bat hat bat hat we are not so successful in our reformatory endeavor endeavors sas sus as others would like to see us it is a certain that we are not so successful as we personally desire to be it la is very likely that in the development of our reformatory policy we may think say bay and do sobie some things which emily may consider are not conducive to the accomplishment of much good and it is just possible that ehe in her reformatory ende eude endeavors acors may think say bayaud hayand niad atad do some things which we may consider not indicative odthe of the highest wisdom rif but thatis no reason why we should call her all sorts of hard names botan nor invite vite partisans parti or prejudiced persons persona or any body else official or unofficial to advance upon her like ilke an avalin avalanche cho oho and crush her nor she ui us vice versa now we are not by any means crying we wa never nevor do and w we 0 never mean to do whatever the consequences our colora colors are nailed to the masthead andt andl here bere we mean the them mig to stick though tho the heathen rage and the people imagine vin varn viiu v ju aln lu in itle otie forma formu Liou of our domestic relations we build upon the foundation of the individual iree agency of both man and woman and act with strict conscientiousness and sincere conviction of duty therefore we do hot admit any juau just force in the strictures in which emily indulges upon however she may talk of or to us we ve consider it not in consistent with our profession to talk of or to her as a brother and endeavor to convince he her r of the error of some of her ways 0 to o as and as representing the amor mor mons mona 11 she bhe can hardly censure asfor us lor for speaking of and acting towards women in a civil respectful and courteous manner and that is our custom we are not a bit apprehensive of the permanent ill will of the women we are perfectly satisfied that such a thing will never be it is not in the nature of things there is a heap of good nature in women bhea they only half try and mormonism niam is just the thing to d develop it emily does doea not appear to be of this opinion but we assure her it I 1 is a the cheerful fact and that the mor mons mono are the very beat friends the women have on earth THERE are possibly many men who would be glad to seo beo an ludlan indian war binau in ID utah we aie

of the indians the landof land 0 their forefathers from time immemorial to them naturally they cling t to 0 it with powerful feelings and can not be made to see the juanice justice of their being deprived of it without fair compe compensation and a fairly understood agreement that their title be transferred to the new comers even when all this has hab been done the indians for divers reasons have many claims on the forbearance and comp compassion assion of the whites the inre infer r bior should always be the object of the compa compassion and assistance rather than of the rapacity of the
