Show UNSAVORY SCANDALS soan DALS BRANDED WE vr publish today to day a clipping from the chicago times taken from the bil StI ioula be public anin regard to ta an alleged conversation with postmaster lynch of 0 this city and some re marks ladeby ex district attorney bates wedo we do not know snow whether the postmaster is correctly reported or not if not ho he can put himself right on the record if tu the reporter states the truth troth the gentleman h hrs has lent himself to the repetition of most atrocious slanders so vile that no words will fitly describe their meanness mean nesb neis and mendacity every one has hag right aright a to entertain and express such opinions as ho he may have upon the questions that are involved in what Is called the mormon problem also to advocate euch sueh measures as aa he may think best to meet what he may deem to be an evil we also have the right tight to discuss these especially when they havo hava been given to the public but bat no man has the right to spread slander nor aid in diffusing misinformation information mis if mr lynch thinks It mormonism the greatest evil ever inflicted on any people wo we will not question hib his right to such an opinion though we may think what we flease please about his taste and wonder how any man who has seen the world can draw a comparison between bait balt bake 8 society 0 and that of other cities to the disadvantage of the latter and we may form our own conclusion as to the kind of morals which beem seem to be to his mind so bo with regard to the very lican hcan Q method of meeting the alleged evils of utah he will not be interfered with in his efforts to get the territory placed under an alx abs absolute 0 despotism of tho the most myrann tyr anni annl 1 oai cal character but we cm oua think what whai we please about the republicanism and consistency of an american who would attempt such buch an outrage on the rights of citizens and seek thus to overthrow the very foundation principles of constitutional liberty in the remark however that he would have the children in utah we suppose he means the children educated and cf compel th ahm m to go to public schools where something be bides sides mormonism Is ia taught there is something more than an opinion it contains an insinuation thatis that is utterly untrue the ldes ides conveyed Is that in the public schools of utah nothing but taught we defy the gentleman to produce proof that ct Mormonism mormon ism or any other religion Is taught in any of the district schools of the territory the text books in use ube are the same as adopted in many of the states and the schools are not denom lna lional in any bense benbo of the word if he does not know this he can very soon boon nind find out by attending them they are odan opan to the public and ho can drop in unexpectedly and andream learn the facts implied statement to is unjustifiable fer faz there are no grounds tar toz it bug bup which nag nas probably been told to him for truth and he be had no right to repeat for facts that of which he has no knowledge to bo be published against the territory where he lives and against which he has no just cause for complaint the next statement which we desire to note is the assertion that what young men of IMor mormon morill parents pee mee at home Il educates them to a life of licentiousness bhame shame on any person in the form of m man an that utters such a libel on a people who strive more than anything else to teach their children moral purity temperance chastity and self restraint only afoul and bor hor rupt bupt heart could conceive buchs such a calumny the strong exp eap expressions res reb a blo n la which suggest themselves to cliar cilar this villainous tation aro are a little to vigorous for this thib paper papers b but bui ut would not do anything like justice to the libel wo we know something about the homes thus traduced traducer trad while mr lynch dobs does not and if huch budh language fell from his hia lips we do not envy his bis spirit and disposition but nut how bow does his assertion comport with his admission about the faithfulness and obedience of mormon wives it if cmor mormon wives are true to their marriage vows and thus pure in their marital relation relations how can cmor c mormon homes be educators to lives ilves of licentiousness ea and how la Is it that he has become me bep ber so BO familiar with uhe the business ol 01 che the th houses of ill fame of this city as to be able to tell the kind and class of filthy male bipeds that frequent them the only reliable information 1 that can bo be obtained conc concerning eming ing them in our opinion Is with the police it would perhaps as astonish the postmaster if he were to be told the truth about the patrons of those places we do not know whether it would mate any difference or not astopis aa to his familiarity with some of his male acquaintances but he would learn that tt ti ey are not of fMc marmon rmon parentage we are sorry to eay that we havo hoard heard of some bome and aad degraded young men of hemily connection being induced to visit those places but we ve deny
