Constitution il 20 the aeryice OF polygainy by any lair
erose OF religion could not be understood to license
erin es punishable at common Law and, Congress
prohibited from making an established religion, Ter
itory must be equally prohibited fcr territory is the
creature of Congress, and Congress cannot authorize
Territory 10 authorize incorporated company OF
priests to do what it may not do itsel The practice
under cur Constitution has been, and specially pro.
yded for in the organic act Of Utah. that errt )rai

laws of Utah in judgment such as are not tit
to be made" il s our duty to snnu them; and if they
create an establishment Of religion then it is clearly
open and palpsble violation of the Constitution, and
not too sacred to 20 untouched On this subject toere
never could have been any difficulty had the Book
of Mormon controlled the appetitee of the lusty
