WHENCE COMETH DEGENCY?

A stalwart republican paper pub
lished in Salt Lake City and known
as the Tribune, has a kind of mania
for arranging and fixing the status
of public mems responsibility, and
to no one of them of late has it paid
so much attention as to Governor B.
F; Butler, of Massachusetts,. In
order to arrive at correct estimate
of what its conclusions as to any
body's standing before the world are
worth, it is necessary to make some
comparisons, any of which. if
thorough and based on the papers
own utterances, will show its CEN
sures as we'll as its praises to be
founded mainly upon partizan biz s
and general bigotry. We select the
case of Butler as sample, and will
undertake to reverse its conclusions
and negative its afirmations.
The Tribune refers to Buffers
career in New 0rleans-when, of
course, he was rampant republican
in terms of the highest Iauda-
ton, pronouncing it patriotic and
himself a hero. Let US see how
well the facts will sustain such con
illusions.
He hanged VIM. B. Mumford fol
purely sentimental offense and tc
make himself a name at the north.
This was murder.
He took advantage Of his military
position to confscate private prop.
erty without reference TO justice OF
circumstances. This was robbery
He made himself an absolute
ruler over the city and its surround
ings, rendering judgments from
which there was no appeal. This
was tyranny.
He issued an order declaring any
lady of that city prostitute when
ever United States soldier was
moved by desire towards her and
could put in the fimsy excuse of
having been "insulted." This was
the most damnable kind of de-
bauchery.
This was when Butler was a re-
publican, and it is what republican
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1883-07-10

yet prepared to admit that it Is de.
feated within its own lines by a
handful of people, that it passes
laws which cannot stand
the test of law, that its executive
offers are powerless, and that it
must resort to physical force to
overcome the growth of religious
community. a paragraph more
suggestive of absolute imbecility
than the above was never written;
the baby act is pleaded with a We
hemence more suggestive of the
nursery than the sanctum; and by
tacitly refusing to acknowledge the
power of progress, the march of
civilization and the efficacy of laws
the paper proclaims itself either will
fully unjust or grossly ignorant.
PERHAPS Mr.. Watterson can find
something in the nature of solace
for his disturbed soul in the opin-
ions of Commissioner Godfrey, pub
lished in the telegraphic reports in
to-day's HERALD.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1883-07-10

papers-notably the one referred to
above-call "grsnd services to his
country" That he was impelled to
such acts to great extent by the
power behind bin and his lately
chosen friends, there can be no
doubt-else why did and do they
applaud him so vociferousiy?
Times have changed. Butler is
no Ienger in the army, no more sur
rounded by the vicious political at
mosphere which stifl3d his human
ity, warped his reason and blinded
his eyes. he has got back to his
law books, to his family, to his
peaceful associations, to respectable
ity and democracy. ALL at once it
occurs to the noisy rabble who form
erly tossed their caps high in the
air and gifted their voices in ser
vile shouts" at the mention Of his
name, that he is demagogue be-
cause he was able to have him
self elected governor of Massachu-
sets; that he is a fraud because en-
deavoring to investigate and expose
frauds that he is humbug because
trying to lay bare iniquiJy and that
he is an otficious pretender because
a lot of otficious fossillzed professors
would not receive him into their cir
Gle. These are the two pictures
presented to the reader.
The paper or man that praises the
former record and denounces the
latter, is not, we submit, first
class judge of men, morals or meth
DDS: a Id if a judgment from such
a source be bad as to one man, why
not bad as to all men? In other
words, are not their praises a just |
cause of suspicion and their denun-
Citations a certificate of good char
acter?
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1883-07-10
WHY NOT?

Il is sacri.ege to call the Mormon
faith religion. 1t is fully TO look 10
the Edmunds bill as q remedy. What
will the government do? Why may is
not keep down the power of the McI mon
hierarchy b. sending back Ia their
homes the misguided recruits that come
hither to practice their gua'i-lagalzsd
lecherous habit? CONrier-JouTmal.
These are pertinent questions, and
entitled to answers. Passing, for
the present, the conclusions arrived
at by the first two sentences, it
might be proper to timidly suggest
that the government is always will
ing and usually ready to do anything
that can be done within constitu-
tional limits or, in an emergency,
within hailing distance outside of
them. AS to the second question,
it is the best answer in the world
to say that the United States is not
