The late Professor Skoda, one Of Vi

friends often joked with him about the
matter. and Skoda bore their fun good
naturedly, without, however, making
anv explanation. One day friend
observed that he was more stylishly

The above choice morsel was written
by the Endowment Rink editor of the
Mormon organ of Zion. Closer and
closer the lines are being drawn by the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints. Only u short time ago the polyg-
amists passed II resolution not to allow
the GENTLE with clean shirt to mingle
in the may at their select dances. and
now the Mormon youth who writes heavy
editorials for the Deseret AerS on week
DAYS and presents his plans and speclii-
cations to God on Sunday for the man
agement OF the universe during the fol'
rowing week, has given us cruel blow.
Long ago resolution was passed retliS-
inr the editor of this paper the freedom
of the Endowment House, and now we
are cut adrift, with no good society to
which we can flee except the question
able society of the gentle.
The festive reader can readily see
how lonely our life will hencetorth be
10 ms. With what wearlsome same
ness we now visit the homes where only
one isolated wife runs the ranch. How
we rliss the prattle of n car load of
miscellaneous kids as We enter the door,
and how still and monOtonous are our
visits where we miss the cordial welcome
OF raneleen hostesses.
We have been black balled in the tith-
inc shebang, frowned upon in the en-
dowment house and cursed in the taber
naclc.
The next period in our downward
career, will be death, perhaps at the
hands of the avengng angel Some
sore eyed DANTE from tle Michigan
Penitentiary will be selected to dog our
footsteps and smitc us in the stiffness OF
the night with an iron coupling pin. and
when the glorious god of day peeps over
the Black Hills, we win be at rest, lying
in the bright glare Of the early morn
with our features knocked galley west,
No one can ever know how we feel
The church Of Zion has soured on us
and we are an outcast on the face OF the
earth, with only one wife and the doors
OF the temple closed against us.
Branded as the boss OF the Forty
Liars. cut adrift, with no chance to be
sealed to q siren fresh from tic pest
house on the Jordan, we cry out in our
anguish and rend otr garments. and
spit upon the carpet, for our punishment
