Show PURSUING ITS OLD VILE METHODS tap cannot contain its joy over the attempt of a few land speculators t use the agitation of the subject of converting convening the womans comans industrial du home into a building for the courts post office etc the thought lzina behind the establishing of the home was one of mercy to unfortunate women and their children the whole power of a mighty might organization that uses the superstitious super sti fears at women as its very strongest weapon has fought it from the first with a meanness born of the hate which is awakened when any attempt is made to subject the mormon power to the laws of this country 10 we clip the foregoing from our liberal contemporary of much march we are able to notice it because the haiir ian guage is for that paper uncommonly decent it is however false sig aa amial when referring to the NEWS we expressed no joy jorli over the attempt of tend ind speculators in relation to the so bo called industrial home 1 1 but on the contrary said f we have not endorsed either of these movements and do not think tile the present proposition a good one so much for the first falsehood clipped as above As to the second we have to say the thought behind the establishment of the home was two twofold fold to still further prejudice congress and the country against the mormons cormons Mor mons and induce further legislation to their injury and to draw money from the united states treasury for expenditure in this city the motives of its promoters political and pecuniary it is entirely and wilfully false to state that the power of a mighty organization by which is meant the mormon church has fought the institution referred to the church hats has paid no attention to it whatever the NEWS has ionly devoted some space to the pillai villainous methods employed for the purpose of bleeding uncle sam in the interests of the home speculation and that is all the money obtained for this institution which so far has teen an utter failure was gained by false wilful lying and by the manufacture and utterance of prurient and filthy stories which were proven to be without foundation in fact all this we opposed at the time and add we regard it ni w as we did then as thoroughly shameful indecent dishonest and contemptible the institution itself needed deeded no opposition it was as near dead as possible when it was born and has never had any strength or real vitality the attempts made to gal vaniza it with some semblance of life have been ludicrous and pitiable and the fact is becoming recognized that tile the whole thing is a humbug indications of this recognition of the truth are to be seen in the attempts now being made to utilize it for some government purpose likely to be permanent we have not supported and do not endorse either cither of them because we believe the motives of their promoters are nearly as sordid us its those of the chief schemers for the i home 1 although their methods are not to be classed with the indecent and wilfully untruthful doings of persons who appealed to congress for money to build and carry on the useless concern now sought to be turned into something of value the mormon church has never cared enough about the howey home or its promoters to say anything about it or them and all the DB sERET NEWS has spoken on the subject t has been in refutation of the false faise w hoods of certain professedly pious schemers and in presentation of facts that are indisputable we do not expect the sheet which publishes the two misrepresentations at the head bead of this article to tell the truth about anything relative to us or the cause we sustain but have hoped once JD in a while that it would become decent and prudent enough to cease giving to the public as quotations from the NEWS the very opp opposite osiEe of our language and sentiments |
