was handed around the streets this morn
ing. Here is what it says:
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1885-09-29

In THE Century for October among
the more interesting subjucts to be dis
cussed under the head of ''Topics OF the
Time" will be one entitled "North and
South" In this direction the Century
has always occupied advanced ground,
and all its efforts have been for peace.
The space usually taken up by the War
Series will be devoted to articles and
illustrations relating in very timely and
important way to the life and services Of
General Grant. The October number
will have the ninth installment of Henry
James "The Bostonians," while w. D..
Howels will have an illustrated article on
"Tuscan Cities" Among other illustrated
articles will be one by Mrs Lizzie w.
Champney on "The Haunts of American
Artists" The number bids fair to be an
exceedingly interesting one.

perhaps life, been associated.
1t is the intensity Of this feel
ing of moral boycotting in the
Mormon church which makes the mem
bers thereof fear TO meet it. Wherever
a man turns from the Mormon church, or
acts independently where the church has
a policy to pursue, the whole influence
and power of the church is turned against
him. The members having long
rendered a willing obedience, the church
exacts it whenever member desires to
act on his own responsibility; and the
church is usually powerful enough to en-
force this obedience. In the majority OF
cases members temporal welfare is so
dependent upon the good will OF the
church that he dare not offend the
church. Couple the fear Of social ostra-
cism and the pointing OF the finger OF
scorn at man, together with the fear OF
a loss of temporal prosperity, and we have
a very good reason for much of the mar
tyrdom now being INDUCED in. When
the people OF Utah recognize that their
church is not all-powerful in temporal
matters they will begin to render volun-
tary obedience to the law whether the
church approves OF such course or not.
To show them that their church is not
all-powerful the law must be enforced
whether prominent men expect to create
sentiment in the public mind in their
favor or not by going to prison. And il
the laws are inadequate TO the case they
should be SO amended as to be adequate
The martyr period, if the law is steadily
enforced, will cease within year or two
| at most.
