| Show REV plagiarist HILL AGAIN WE noticed a short time ago some of the deliberate and wilful falsehoods which J wesley hill of ogden who prefixes rev to his name had aeeti telling the public in the east we have to refer to him again not because the untruthful methodist exhorter is of any particular importance but because some respectable journals have been deceived so as to give place i to his utterances c es as though they were reliable for instance the boston herald publishes some of his stories and rec recommend ommen recommends do persons who have any belief in Mor mormon monn sincerity to talk with him here are some of the tales he told the herald that the gentiles have made a substantial b tan progress however is certain and in hi proof he points to the fact that within two years they have erected A a splendid d uni hersity in ogden he also mentions Us with pride ride the fact that his ee congregation faa he modestly puts it has quite as erected a church building costing costine recently to hold the church intact anti and k keen the he practice of plural wives well awell preserved preserve es in in the rural districts was the object of this manifesto it was also issued for the purpose of creating a false impression in the east and thus preparing ng the way dav for ft statehood tate hood for utah the scheme schema ha has worked well thus far for 1 a large arg 6 n number u abe r of gentiles in utah not particularly corned about mormon practices con have accepted the manifesto as being issued in good faith and are now at work with an their for the power admission of the lne territory as a state this created much enthusiasm the mormon people and their priests among amonso according to a prearranged pre arranged plan have hava divided about equally between the two great national parties arties one half to re republicans P ann and the rema remainder inder to the the democrats together with the gentile gentila politicians they are making tours

of polygamy and while the mormon churell church pro proclaims lainas to the world that it is opposed to polygamy and pretends to be against it a s the splendid university the gentiles Gentil esl have built in ogden is in chiefly in hill hilla a minds mind in eye wh which ich la ig very visionary virion ary and magnifying thol the building has been commenced and the whole U united ni ted states has been scoured for subscriptions to build and endow it the notorious sar sam small sma who is of the same stripe as jail hil on only Y much broader having gathered I 1 in n considerable sid erable lucre which hill accuses him of pocketing even a less degree of tr truth u th attaches tobis to his next statement I 1 in n the first place the manifesto was issued in good faith as we believe the great majority of our citizens both camor mormon N 11 and gentile will agree and the work being done for the admission of utah as a state is not perceptible cep tible at present to the most discerning mind the subject is not agitated at all except by the few people who are opposed to it and chosay things occasionally which provoke comment the assertion that there has beau any prearranged pre arranged plan for division on oft politics is as thoroughly false as that which is coupled with it concerning the tours among the people th the half and half division has nut not taken place and no party has been urging statehood or holding it out as a prize 4 rf 9 aafka that car arrests rests for polygamy are nut taking alel either weekly or at all to la capable of positive proof if thebes the boston bosten herald cares to seek for it the records of the courts here will furnish the evidence if there are any such cases and the absence of any allusion to them therein is sufficient jill s assertion
