necessary sary on account of certain stubborn facts we have taken pains to exhibit some time ago t probably about two weeks mrs newman the chief projector of the scheme was tend tendered tred in this city a flaming reception by clergymen and others this flash ash of en enthusiasm hu was inspired by a financial lia ancial impetus the halo with which the ladys brow was adorned was be spangled with a congressional appropriation mrs newmans success in securing this slice blice from the flank of aarons calf was the central consideration of the incident great is the god of this world when he appears men and women professed lol lowers of him who had no earthly possessions and yet was near to all the he earth fall down and worship him all for the good of the suffering and afflicted and behold how bow grand is the spectacle especially ally when the towering summit of hypocrisy is id attained at the time the reception was tendered a report of the proceedings appeared in the chief antl anti mormon I 1 organ oran published in tins this city readers are familiar with the fact that mrs newman has sought to induce by plausible but bat very unsubstantial representations what she has been pleased to delineate as our au an sm upon the subject they will also remember the subsequent quent explanations and propositions of the NEWS to which there has been no reply we assert that they cannot be successfully overturned tue tile truth cannot cannoa be upset by the glamour of fulsome adulation which has a hollow sepulchral sound 9 nor by the blast of brass izands A an n ounce of sound sense is worth a thousand tons of that kind of congratulatory claptrap clap trap now comes the paper already referred to with apparently the only log ic at its command on the subject and on sunday october gives a revamped report of the you vou tickle me keetin meeting of two weeks ago the mat ter was not what might de be called fresh and newsy being far apart from the occasion described and dished up in the same columns the second time besides this thip warming up tip of cold soup a fortnight old does nut not touch the point at issue this feeding out of reheat re heat ed sawdust mush does not set aside the proposition that au an appropriation giatron pria tion of was obtained from congress ogress on certain represent representations at or rather misrepresentations and that there is an itching on the part of certain pious people tu to misdirect its use Alt alluding to 10 its rehashed report of the sugarplum sugar plum reception of two weeks previous the salt lake tribune gets ibis soapsuds soap suds solution with which it expects a hungry public to 1 wash it down the NEWS last spring was generous enough to charge that mrs newman in i her bt struggle ruggle to found au an industrial I 1 home here heie was waa only actuated by mercenary I 1 motives in another place in to days dais tribune will be found an address delivered by her a few days since we wish every mormon woman in utah could read it il that they might from it obtain an idea of the real character of the woman and through it t me ne more fully realize how they themselves stand in the estimation of christian women we do not dist distinctly incoy recollect what the news said last spring upon the point referred to we haye have belore us however a copy of a statement over the signatures of a delegation of mormon ladies who asserted that mrs newman by certain misrepresentations was aL attempting tempting to obtain money from froin congress under false pretenses As to the opinion entertained toward them by christian ladies of a certain stamp we feel certain that the mormon women as a rule are supremely indifferent they are also aware of its nature perhaps it would be at least equally edifying tor lor the said class of Cli christian ristian ladies to know the opinion the mormon women have concerning them probably an exhibit would show a mutuality of view from opposite standpoints that would be highly refreshing in looking over the vamped revamped re report of 0 the glorioso giori oso reception rally we observe even it proves that the redemption demp tion save the mark I 1 of suffering mormon women and children was what brought the appropriation the S J carroll who presided at the assembly convened for the dispensation pensa tion of taffy said in a speech which was a remarkable mixture of fabrication pharisaical piety and hyperbolic professions of philanthropy so here the innocent suffer while the guilty are smitten and it was the magnificent mission of mrs newman to arouse congress to temper justice with merc yand offer aid to the victims of polygamy governor west was equally offensive upon tuat point we quote the report he congratulated himself that lie be was one so much honored as to be called upon to take part in this reception tendered to the noble lady who had bad so distinguished herself during the late congress by securing the passage of a bill that was to relieve the wants of her sisters in m distress from the peculiar dilemma in which they find and themselves from the enforcement of the laws the same species of philanthropic ecstasy seemed to nil fill the mind of mrs ferry whose two weeks old enthusiasm spasm reached the bursting point and thus gushed forth after years of thought and prayer and research studying well the real condition of these helpless women and cb children ildren realizing the results result of the moral leprosy which has its hold on these homes with a charity greater than her fears she went alore alope to plead their cause I 1 I 1 this is how the gueston guest of the occasion mrs angle anele P F newman showed her holy ra rapture piare 11 I 1 it is something to emancipate a soul from civil bondage it is more to
