ton of the United States, which guarantees 10 every

persecution, and there are no sects which are not
blessed with members ambitious OF msrtyrdom. Inc
blood of foolish saints is not lees the seed OF some
churches than the blood Of wiser saints In this re-
card IL make no difference whether Joseph Smith, lr,
was an impostor vulgar, fddling tavern-keeper or
not his followers believe, affect to believe, that be
was prophet of God-the brother OF Moses ana Cnrist
with equal power to work miracles TO raise the deao,
ard heal the SICK grant forgiveness OF sins 70
and pronounce new divine revelstone and that Brig
ham Young az the Of Smith, s also prophet
and 4" lion of the Lord" This may be iamentable,
but il cannot be cured by law. Faith 10 Intangible
But when the works of such religion In b overt acts
exhibit the gressest immortality and debauchery, and
coyery asserts civil and criminal jurisdiction over all
its members, II is questionable whether iegisfatois
should remain reutrsl, or whether the livery Oh
heaven" should screen men from cimnal courts, be-
csuse they have the mpudence to give their crmee the
priyileees of sacred name Could q man. charged
with burglary rape, find privilege and excuse before
any of our courts plea that 1t was an act done 10
on the prophet Prspus and tha our Constitution per-
mits the free rercise OF religion And, individuals
could not thus shelter their viainy where is there
chance for Territories TO creep in for similar grace
The test which Brigham Young requires "a the sole
dispenser of the blessings of Abraham subser-
yiepcy to the priesthood will be seen 10 ne of hs
published discourses Of February 2, 1888:
eds & Of Israel sqSs1y g.: apGs e.. . sS.

This power held in the hands OF one man, and that
man Brigham Young, is one which may be welded
with tremendous effect. When Judge Brandeuoury
was upon the point of leaving the Territory in order
if possible, to change his purpose, Brigham Young
went and urged him 20 remain, telling him that he
would even black his boots, and that he might have
" az many wives as he chose If he would only stay"
II such license is granted in one case as bribe,
doubtless il lie III Others II the license powerful
temptation to some men, when granted the refusal of
it IL a not less fearful vengeance to others.
That the women in Utah would escape from their
miserable fate if 1t were in their power is shown BY
the escape Of the fourteen traitors to polygamy who
fed with Col. Steptoe, and aiso by reported cases
where wOnen have preferred dinner OF herbs rather
than the stalled OK to seek the protection and undi
yoed affection OF the Indian rsher than to remain in
Mormon s<raghos.
SPIRITUAL WIVES REBELLIOps.
One plan of fridoing the Territory Of polygamy-snd
the idea derives pungency from having been sug-
gesttd by one himself Mormon-s TO mske some
regulation by which those who have more wives than
ore shal be compelled TO ire under The same roof rah
tkemi
The remarks by President j. M. Grant Sunday,
Sept 81 1856 as reported in The Desere Ne,rs shows
that even now the women require urgent counssls.
