abstract ef the lessage I must again attention to abo spread of polygamy in this territory under tho fostering influence of the mormon church As abo reasonable contained in my communication delivered at the operine of your att sion has not yet been acted upon I deem it proper to oace moro advert to the subject and urge the immediate adoption of at measures to extirpate the evil polygamy is a doctrine of the mormon church and the practice u urged and made obligatory upon the members of the church for purpose of binding them more firmly to the organization the mormon leaders have sharply calculated that by making of society a larger community of interest in thea crime its member can be more easily persuaded and influenced to and in carrying into execution the political schemes of the priesthood the law regards a polygamist as a criminal and all civilized society looks upon a plural wife aa a concubine and epou her children to use the least offensive term as illegitimate for the penalty imposed by law the fc naturally boea for protection and defense to the church banished from and ostrach ased by all other society the plural wife and her children are lively objects for sympathy ym pathy again this practice is calculated to draw to the mormon church the most vicious and sensual classes of society it is obvious therefore that polygamy is an element of strength to tho church those who are familiar with the political policy of the mormon church understand why all practices devices and ceremonies calculated to crush out mans hood and have been incorporated into the mormon re system it is for the purpose of of the members of the church 80 that they will yield implicit e to the advice counsel and command of the priesthood polygamy to attract the ken sual has
