republic survive the day when the constitution of the union becomes wholly a thing of the past A bad cause indeed it must be that needs bolstering up with sueh such an outrageous bill of proscription pains and penalties as merritts forty millions of people advance aggressively on a hundred thousand with a bill depriving them virtually of the rights and privileges of citizens I 1 what astonishing

hights rights ats of others and render obedience to the laws of the land the mormons cormons have determined to maintain among themselves ft rule unknown to the coun country try tri and while dwelling under the alag flag of the government and owing to it paramount allegiance they have sought bought to exclude from their midst all who fail fall an to conform to the mormon faith and practice a system of persecution that ought to have been rebuked long since the domination of mormonism operates as a bar to emigration except of the type that seeks to perpetuate and strengthen the peculiar institution of brigham young many who would fain throw off thedor the mormon yoke find themselves subject to a species of terrorism persecution and despotism that is utterly incompatible with the rellious religious freedom granted by the constitution ution n of the country thus at last the lawmaking law making and find law executing power of the country finds itself compelled to grapple with an evil that has beena leen icen a standing reproach to a christian people we cannot believe that Con congress gres will adjourn without setting in motion regulations that will bring utah to harmony with our political and social system and lay the foundation of a reputable state it would be very comforting to be assured that neither the president nor congress designs design sto to persecute flie tile mormons cormons Mor mons nor interfere with their rights of property their personal liberty or their right to worship according to the dictates of conscience were it not that perse perce cution when there is any alwa always ys exists as mark twain says loose looie virtue does in the pacific islands only in reality not in name did anybody expect that grant and congress would tell the world they purposed pur pod to persecute the mor imor mons interfere with their rights of property their personal liberty or their religion it is not what the ibe persecutors t ors purpose but hut what they perpetrate that affects tile the persecuted it is not purpose but words so much as deeds that tha tare ame are to be considered if the tile purpose of the administration is simply to do what is rel tel represented by the tile chronicle as above quoted then tilen there is no cause for sensation there is no cause for troops there is no cause for extreme special or unconstitutional legislation as now engaged in there is no cause for any stir or concern at all for the tile very things professedly de sired are already characteristic features of this community the rights of others and the laws of
