Show IX OPEN REBELLION The Young Smiles of Pazifien Organize Or-ganize n Military Company A lady correspondent of the Pioche Record writing from Panaca gives the following racy account of a military movement among the girls of that place It is reported that some of those horrid hor-rid Utah officials are coming to Panaca for the purpose of arresting several of our church leaders and taking them over into in-to Utah where they will be hung until i they are dead dead As Brother Jennings Jen-nings ef Salt Lake City remarked that us Mormons would either have to obey the laws get out of the country or fight us girls decided to do the latter and for the purpose of protecting our leaders from the officers of the law at hazards Yes us girls have have organized a military company I thought that I was to be elected captain but the other girls all protested They said that I was too bloodthirsty and would kill all Gentiles and this defeated me for the captaincy for every girl would you believe be-lieve had a Gentile feller or two that that they didnt want slaughtered I wits appointed Disorderly Sergeant Every thing pertaining to military affairsjjis left to me I am to drill the girls and keep them in trim The n l ifl I in company uniform will consist of the Bloomer dress The pants will be green and the frock red look I very lovely in my uniform The only objection ob-jection toit is that it makes one look so I flat in the back But this can be easily remedied for instead of wearing the cartridge cart-ridge boxes on the top of our skirts we will place them beneath thus improving our rear appearance Us girls never did admire flat appearing things not even the youths of Bullionville Then there is another great advantage to be derived from placing the cartridge boxes beneath our skirts Those United States marshals are a low set of fellows They are always crawling up behind people when they want to arrest them These rascally fel lows will probably be crawling up behind our little company to kill all us girls but upon beholding the substantial backing that the members possess it will strike terror to their cowardly hearts and they will flee swifter and in greater disorder dis-order than Jse Johnston and his regular troops did at the time they were on their I way to Salt Lake to crush the Mormons and Lot Smith assisted by the Lord and I a few Mormons went up on the moun tains and gathered big jackstones and rolled them down on the troops as they were passing through the canyon Papa I was there and he says it was grand sport to witness the tr troops run They ran so fast that their heads couldnt keep up with their bodies and they hung down in the middle of their backs and their heels would fly up and hit it at every jump No we will not permit the authorities to take away the leaders of our church in Panaca and particularly our dear young I bishop We could never think of parting with him It would break all our hearts to know that we were forever to be deprived de-prived of his bewitching smiles When wearing his most winning smiles he looks for all the world like a dear little grinning monkey IV |
