A Few REMARKS In REGARD TO PRoF.
swlNa.-The Minneapolis (Minn) 7T.
buns dissented from the opinion that
"heresy.huntiDg should be cast into the
same limbo as bcar.baiting," and declares
that Hunting herehcs out OF churches
which they annoy is an eminently proper
thing to DO" After speaking OF Messrs.
Cheney, Mccarthy, and other dlsturbers
Of ecclesiastical peace in Chicago, it says:
Prof. Swing Is a mild-faccd, sweet
voiced, largc-brained preacher Of forty,
of warm, fresh, deep sympathies, Of most
exemplary life, with attractive manners,
a fine speaker, philosopher, deeply read in
literature, and a student Of nature
and metaphysics. He Is by lar the most
popular orthodox minister in Chicago.
Some charges against him are that he re-
Jects the creed Of Three-in-one, as he
learned 1t many years ago; that he wrote
and printed poem that sent dead Uni
tartan woman to heaven; and that in scr.
mon, he declared that perhaps the moral

really holds these views, and If they are
opposed to the church whose name and
shelter he. uses, he ought 10 60 out Of 1t
or be excluded. So Of Tying, Mccarthy,
Cheney, McKaig, and the rest. :
It Is no answer, in any case, to say that
the creed Is absurd or abstruse and the
rules frivolous; whether they relate to the
mysteries Of antinoanism, TO the mode Of
wearing the chasuble, or the fashion Of
cutting the finger nails, they are equally
legitimate as points Of discipline, ii they
have been prescribed by the Church. 4
Church Is very much like o secret order
or q political party in Its machinery; the
member having solemnly agreed to say
"Ahracadahra," is under q moral obliga-
ton to say It, or get out 80 VIC have no
sympathy for Brother Swing or Brother

,InR,nNPERNERSITY.

The fact that Congress has been
withholding the crown and sceptre OF
sovereignty from Utah seems to have
made that would-be State little disaf-
fected and spiteful. We cannot divine
Z better cause than this for the many
serious acts which have passed the Ter
ritorial Legislature in cOntravention OF
the laws of the United States. Where
Congress has dictated appointment OF
officers and prohibited election, the
people have resorted fearlessly to elec-
mon. In numerous cases the Probate
Court has usurped equity and criminal
jurisdiction, in direct opposition to the
organic act Of Congress. Contempt OF
Congress. and Of the higher courts OF
the Territory, has bred deal of law
lessness among the people. Murderers
have been permitted to 60 free,
and lucre has been permitted to
shape mems motives, all the re-
suit Of the determination on the part OF
the Legislative Assembly to disregard
both the Governor and the Federal
authorities. Not the least piece Of its
audacity is the act which conferred the
right Of suffrage on all the females re-
gardless Of age. thereby discriminating
against the males. To allow the little
girls to vote may have been overriding
zhe thing, but, If it was meant as an
expression Of contempt for history and
civilization. it was a success. They
claim. further, out there that the law
against polygamy is unconstitutional
and look upon it as tyranny. This feel
ing begets disaffection. To persist IN
their present doctrines and practices
Will tend to a military government
rlther than a free State.
