the decisions ot of the judges and aad the pleadings ot of the lawyers in utah of the passage in isaiah where he says bays for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid bid isaiah was truly a prophet and his sayings C are verily aeril y coming to pass it used to be a byword where iwas I 1 was raised when speaking of a wise matter that it was AS WISE AS A JUDGE and a lawyer was considered to be one of the most prudent men onearth on earth but by what I 1 have learned of the doings of the judges and some of the le legal al fraternity in utah and in fac fact t t the he supreme u court of the united states is not a whit behind the old ildage adage should be changed to as simple simpie sim pleas as a judge and and as impudent as a lawyer 11 it is enough to make a school boy laugh at some of their unprecedented proceedings their rulings ings and pleadings are so flimsy that the most ignorant can see clear through them I 1 will not attempt to tell what they a are r e for they have been f from rom time to ti time e so plainly sed sec forth in the columns of the news that a man though a fool need not err therein but t here there is one point that I 1 wish to write a little upon it appears to be the MOST FOOLISH THING OF ALL ALI that the lawmaking law making department of the united states and add the courts of utah should think that by imprisoning a few polygamists as they are called they can stop the work of god or check the saints from serving him I 1 think that they ought to know knod and it they do not it ought to be told to them which has been done many times that all saints believe in andrec andree and receive elve eive the revelation on celestial marriage as coming f from rom god and hold sacred the principle of plural marriage contained therein and aud and hundreds yea thousands of the latter day saints would enter into that order of marriage if circumstances would admit of it I 1 under understand stan d that this has been done dode as far as the of women would allow of doing so if men and women were equal in the church and each man had a wite there would be no plural marriages then when all are married the law fw is fulfilled polygamy is only the object point held alby up by the persecutors to aim at evidently the main thin thing they are after is the tho OVERTHROW of THE KV KINGDOM OF GOD and the removal of his priesthood from the earth which has been the object sought for by the enemies of the church from the beginning then why do they ther select out a jew dew who have la in all ill sincerity and in ln accordance with the law of god conscientiously entered into plural marriage and afflict them with lines flues and imprisonment and cause innocent women and children to suffer I 1 cannot see how anybody but an unjust magistrate could do such a thin thing they might as well think to stop the mississippi river by dammin dam wone goue olits tributaries tributa ries at the head of the the stream as to think to put down polygamy by the course they are aru taking however god will cause the wraith wrath of manto manlo man to praise him the foolishness of the wise to scatter the seeds of righteousness the imprudence of the tae prudent to spread the truth the imprisonment and the blood of the martyrs to increase the growth of the church and the weak to be made strong u until atil the I 1 law will go forth f from rom zion and the word 0 of f the lord from Jerusal jerusalem cm 17 it is my private opinion that if it congress and all concerned would take the advice of st james and all those who inck lack wisdom ask of god who liber ilber liberally they might be enabled to see liberally aili allf thease themselves ves as others see them and govern themselves accordingly S P F ATWOOD ME 2 MEMORIAL SE SERVICES AT PANGUITCH PANGUITCH garfield county U T august loth 1885 editor Desere tN aws i memorial services were held at this place out of
