Show URES A SPECIMEN with tile pressure of several requests one C E 8 S whittier whittler district attorney lor for bingham county delav era himself himi elt of his aviews views on the question who shall be dis franchised by the teat test oath andis some in a thereupon to registrars regi registe ars and judges j of election we should advise ad rise all to read what this learned gentleman hai has to aay say it is in in all the most amusing document that bag has issued from rom a legal mind east cast or west bince since that famous opinion ot of cotton slather father on the probable existence of the double headed snake it if any hereabouts hould harbor a doubt aa as to the quality of legal brains in in the territory where tha the honorable kentucky smith once lived and flouri flourished ebed like a green hay bay tree let him read and ponder polder if there bo be auy any who ho doubt the honest purposes pur posea ot of the anti in their e efforts to squelch the mormon terror 0 of I 1 that region be he too should road that prejudice pie iudice may be removed from his mind it if there be any who may doubt that the republicans intend to carry tho the state at all hazards he should read and ba be convinced mr E S whittier whittler bles bless i the name dispenses hla his precious wisdom under the he following propositions collated and abridged from the official proclamation published in another place in this iesue issue first 31 mem embers berg of the 1 mormon church are not legal voters second all democrats are mor alor mons and should not be allowed to vote third registrars in idaho for election purposes are commissioners jurors and judges at discretion and should see to it that nona none but republican votes go into the ballot boxes of bingham county in support of proposition one it is sufficient in his emphatic op opinion cioll t that hat hey they read section etc of the revised statutes etc albeit in in neither of the provisions of law re referred erred to by vord word or inference does the name I 1 mormon appear aa ai to the second enuncio says aft all who on january 1 1883 were members of or affiliated with ith or aided abetted or enczur encouraged zel the mormon church are now cormons mormons Mor mons because mark you the supreme court 0 of I 1 idaho in in chamberlain v vs a woodin had decided that a mormon who had left the church and afterwards attempted to vote was not a sincere apostate bat hat in their opinion waa was stid astl 1 a mormon now since mr woodin in january 1888 was a false pretender to the honors of f apostasy therefore all who may my a or shall thereafter have separated from tho the mormon church and attempted to vote are pretenders and are and shall forever be mormon mon AB As to those who affiliated with the armone in in 1883 while it is not clear from be the district attorneys argument why hy they were cormons mormons we NO take that little item for granted upon the word of mr whittier and since they affiliated in IM 1888 tor for reasons already stated they must mut always affiliate the conclusion is valid that they too should be prohibited now i in 1888 all the democrita of bineham bingham county affiliated with cormons mormons in gome some degree that ia is they voted the samo same ticket which tho the cormona or pretenders tried to vote and afterward defended the their t pretensions therefore the de democrats of bingham county are cormons mormons alq an J a hould be promptly refused permission to register or vote the third proposition in the tacit 0 opinion pinion of mr whittier waa was good law backed by his ills personal reputation as a lawyer without further authority 1 it t was enough therefore to say their duty was thus thas and BO SO namely to cut ut ev every ery applicant for registration in bingham county under oath and to examine him as to his present qualifications ficat ions and also aa to his flea eions in january 1888 and especially as to bis all affiliation illation at said date etc and to too pre refuse to all whose answers under oath do not fully satisfy luch such apropos of this knock out view of mr whittier which he is correct in bA ieving will put to an eternal 0 leep all election controversy contro veray in bingham county if carried out as writ a respected liberal attorney of ogden remarked last night that with such exquisite regulations he did not eee fee what need idaho had of the formal sty of elections it would w bo be much less expense an and d less lose vexation all round for the politicians to get got together anil find appoint the state officers wo we hope sincerely if mr whit tiers views are mada made the rulo of action that they will succeed to his fullest tallest expectations where such unscrupulous schemers bomers ac can hold bold tor for twenty four houra hours any office of responsibility lity whatever in the aft g ft of the people the quicker the ruling system is overwhelmed overwhelm edin in ita its own corruption tho the batter better tor for the people aboy might then ba be able to rally the better element under a new regime NEVADA taken another spell of 61 complaint the politicians are again working up an issue in the test oath business buei nesa A section of their new C constitution reads readis very similar to a fool law once enacted by the I 1 legislature and almost immediately
