urged mainly that polygamy IL pars Of the
Mormon religion. md TINT Congress Is pro-
libited by the Constitution from interfer-
ence in religions beliefs md inatitntions.
All theae Courts successively have hold that
plsn Of religious conviction Is not valid
defense for any PRACTICE which the laws de-
ane a. criminal. Good government, good
morals, and good sonse alike demand this
construction Of tho constitutional .pro-
vision; otherwise religions convictions
conld be tnat1e tho cover Of a1l tho
critnes in the calendar, and enable
man aud women 10 kilt, torture, mutilate,
ateal. md indulge in all sorts Of lewd and
lccherous practices which, at ona time md
another, hnve been sanctioned by ao-called
religious sacts. There Ia nothing In tho
United States law, or tho Judicial construc-
ton thereof, which, ia calculated to interfere
with tho free practice Of the Mormon rslig.
Ton, except in so far Is that religion pre-
tends to protect practice which is con.
domned BY good morals aud the best interests
Of the community, md even large faction
of tho Mormon Church deny that poIygamy
is necessary practice in the Church.
Tho construction an1 enforcement OF this
law against bigamy are two very different
things in. Utah but, now that the validity
Of tbs statute has been confirmed by the
Court Of Inst resort, TINT fact certainly
ought to promote moro hctivo interference
OF the authorities to prevent the infraction
Of tho law. Perhaps it would DO anwise to
open up general and unrefensing
prosecution against MI persons now
living in po1ygamous state; such
an attempt would probably moet with
stubborn resistance, anu might work great
injury to many deluded but dependent and
helpless women. But prupor enforcement
OF The law a. TO all future polygamoua mar.
riagos will conflne tho evil whero 1t is aud
ultimately eradicate 1t. Tho doctrines and
practices Of tho Reformed H1ornons will bo
Of great assistance to tho work carried on In
this spirit, and the policy should be openly
promulgated and rig'dly enforced Of punish.

who shall be guilty Of contracting bigAmoua

then, would be tho disappearance Of the
