days past by the declaration of prof felix adler that the jewish J racel race is ls doomed to die prof adler is js the leading spirit of a society of f lif hebrews e in new yorki york calling themselves humanitarians jue sue he is the son 6 the ex rabbi fabbi of the fifth avenue temple the gentleman recently paid a visit to this city and made brief but keen hein and n i na critical inquiries into the doctrines and P system y stem of ot the latter day saints heis hels he Is an able learned shrewd and liberal minded man but is naturally skeptical though not infidel in his notions he has caithin fai thin religion viewed in the abstract but not in religious systems he is a great advocate of the kindergarten system of juvenile education is an original thinker and delivers public discourses in standard hall new york every sunday prof adlers argument was that races as well as individuals are subject to natural law and sooner or later must die he predicted the impending dissolution of the jewish race and his utterances set the or hebrews of gotham in a flutter A number of rabbis have emphatically protested against the professors conclusions and given their reasons for maintaining the contrary but their arguments are chiefly founded on the tenacity of jews to their religion they speak of the increasing number of synagogue uee of the strength of hebrew societies of the wealth of their bene bone benevolent volen t institutions of the active interest in european and other jew ish conferences fe feren feron ces and of the establishment of theological schools for the education of teachers of judaism all this we believe to be cor correct rett but adlers prediction was not mot so much in reference to judaism as to the jews he did not speak of the decadence of

coincide with our view lew of the subject 0 i THE LATEST SOLUTION WHAT a wondrous change hag has come over the christian christians assailants of plural mar marriage flage ilage I 1 only a little time ago they represented represent eil etl the women of utah as in abject slavery downtrodden down trodden sad faced and 9 groaning under the tyranny of many alved men all than thai was necessary to solve the 96 mormon problem was to give these female squib soula in bondage their liberty mormonism Mormon sm would then be shattered and pious christendom be able to td breathe freely without a pang concerning its own social filthiness domestic broils or sectarian animosities at one ilme time the railroad was to be the great plowshare to break up the field of mormonism As soon as the national highway was completed disaffected p plural lural wives crushed victims of masculine oppression were jo rush in crowds for escape to hristian christian shelter and polygamy was to receive its deathblow but wonderful to relate mormon Mor mons labor under advice and direction of the mormon leaders made the rapid completion of the road possible and the very men who were expected to be injured by the project helped materially and anxiously to render it successful and instead of the women running away from utah thousands more availed themselves of the new and easy mode of to the gathering place of the bain sain saints is I 1 to come here and identify themselves with the people and the system established tin fin the vales of the mountains then woman suffrage was to be the weapon wherewith the ismor rimor mormon marriage knot was to be effectually cut give the mormon women the right to vote and polygamy would be doomed it had been doomed co no end of times ki previously r piously tIou sly siy but this time it was to be doomed effectually now comes the Rocky mountain presbyterian Y with the following which it has adopted as the views of some christians who give themselves great and needless trouble over the affairs of bf utah taft it is the women who legalize polygamy in utah the women yote vote in solid phalanxes far mormonism and polygamy they are the tools of the meo men and the design ing church officials thie thle may beem strange to the east gast but it Is 19 the truth the power of mormonism today to day is the votes of mormon women every female azo aro from m twenty one years of age iq is allowed to vote vole the polygamist women flood the polls and weep sweep everything before them the surest way to reform mormonism is to re repeal eal eai the law allowing woman hgo suffrage in this territory it appears now th atthe that the mormon women have halve toor much liberty 11 the pretended champions of the downtrodden down trodden want to deprive them of it if the ladies of utah would only use nse their political power in a way to sul suit t these thesle anxious 16 reformers woman sunn suffrage ral ge would be upheld as asa aba a eplen splendid did thing but as they decline this dictation it is demanded that the suffrage be taken away from them there are a few in the presbyterians rians statement which should be pointed ort gout out of ot course they are only mis mig mistakes takes such a 9 christian journal would not in indulge in wilful misrepresentation first polygamy is not illegal It legalized in utah either by men br women the laws of this territory are silent on the subject Se second cond im U T lus n wap jj year sor age s is not allowed to vote the law of the territory in relation to this matter is in consonance with the united beatea statute colic concerning emIng citizenship the wife daughter or widow of a citizen if she is twenty one years of age is a citizen under natio national rial lial law Th eUtah statute endows this female citizen with the right to vote the bamme earne as a male citizen this is called by same bome some pe people pio plo mormon s law if it is then the bior mormons Mor Alor mons give more liberty to women than their assailants who accuse them of oppressing women third it is not true that the polls here are flooded by women polygamous or otherwise many lany ladies as well as many of the sterner sex pay little attention to 10 politics 11 tlc alc 3 and they are just juat as free to 8 stay 1 y ft away ray from the polls as to exercise ixer eise cise the rights and liberties conferred upon them by local law but how is it that these women rush to the polls sweep everything before them and vote for hormon lormon mormonism Mpr monism fam lam and polygamy if they are so downtrodden and oppressed by that which they vote for Mor mormon mons women do vote for mormonism and polygamy but not at the ballot box for these are religious questions and are not issues to be decided at the polls in their public meetings mormon women discuss these subjects as they have the righetto right to and birthey decide in favor of these tenets of their faith what business la Is it 16 of annb ody eise else and supposing they should be deprived of the elective franchise how would this abolish mormonism they would vote vole just ut as strongly for it as before and perhaps with greater enthusiasm thusia sm pr fer being deprived of a vested right simply on account of sex they would naturally feel indignant and the main questions at issue would be unaffected except to receive greater support because odthe of the sense bense of injury under which the franchised disfranchised dis women would suffers suffer provoking them to greater resistance against their pretended friends but actual bitter enemies to those who wish to retard the progress of mormonism they cannot destroy it we offer er this suk sut suggestion let it alone every attempt to crush it consolidates it every plan to burat it to pieces rei coils colls on those who devise it if it is let alono alone it may way move with slug gish steps attracting little notice but if itis itla assailed denounced misrepresented legislated legislate against hm and n made the target for every christian lc it will increase livigor tn vigor and ability to meet its foes all nations wili will look upon it many mady people will embrace it and some day it will wiil rise
