"Congress is primarily responsible for
our Indian wars. 1t knows the evils
of our Indian system and refuses to re.
dress them. 1t will not provide for the
Indian those things which make civili-
cation possible, viz; permanent homes,
ind ividual rights of property. the pro-
lection of law and guarantee OF the

and again the Interior Department has
been let, without appropriations to feed
the Indians. Congress has never stood
up boldly to protect the Indians in the
possession Of any country which white

The AntI-POIygamy Society

At Salt Lake City, Utah, have adopted
memorial to Congress setting forth
that while Delegate Cannon and repre-
sentatives Of the Mormon Church are
petitioning for amnesty and promising
obedience, the Mormons in Utah pay no
heed to the decision of the Supreme
Court. Polygamy is their religion, and
laws against it are considered SIM
ply persecution. Apostle John Tay-
lor, president of the church, declares
that the Supreme Court has no right to
interfere with his religion. This same
apostle in 1883 published pamphlet
in France declaring there was no poly
gamy in Utah, he having five wives at
the time. John w. Young has mar
ri"d his fifth wife, James Welsh his sec
ond and John White his third wife
since the Suprem. Court decision was
made. The society ask for legislation
to make the general reputation Of con-
jugal relation proof of marriage and
the living together in polygamy to con.
stitute the ofIrnSe.
