Show THE MILLS OF THE GODS. In a lettter from Rudger Clawson, now in the Penitentiary, to William" Fother-ingham, Fother-ingham, of Beaver, and published in The Southern Utonian, occurs this passage : whe iMllaof l grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine," so we can afford af-ford to be patient and await the operations quotation!86110168 f PWer referred to the The "mills of the gods" do grind slow and likewise they grind exceedingly fine, and some day the people of Utah will learn this fact. The laws of the United States may be compared to the mills of the gods, and like those mills, they will yet grind exceedingly fine. From the general tenor of Rudger Clawson's letter we draw the inference that he means that the mills of the gods will grind those who are enforcing the laws of the United States against polygamy. We look upon the mills of the gods as grinding for the Government, and not for those who are violating its laws. The courts of the United States in Utah are the mills of the gods which grind exceedingly fine, and that which is being ground eo exceedingly fine are those who break the Edmunds law. |
