Show Real Instruction W7 E sincerely hope that young Utah is keeping V a close watch upon the case which has been occupying one of the courts at Ogden for several days past. No matter how the case may terminate, the proceedings of the trial should be studied by the young Mormon people, for they cannot fall to realize the fact that as conditions were here twenty-five years ago, it was time for a radical change. The study of the case may soften their opinions of some of the people who cried out for a change, and kept crying until the change came. What the change brought in a material way can be seen on every hand, but what was taught and practiced hero, while not fully revealed in the progress of this trial, can at least be partly shown. From it young Utah can partly understand under-stand what held Utah under a sort of paralysis while near-by states with far less resources were roaring with prosperity; and held Utah under a ban because what was maintained here was a shame to modern civilization. We hope young Utah will read carefully the proceedings of this trial in Ogden and from it be the more fully impressed im-pressed that when man practices what is a' shame to woman, the practice always brings its own revenge through the shame and disgrace of the man. |
