A HUMILIArISG CONFESSION
1aetnhdiyienals

In his mad speech against the Fiiz-
John Porter bill on Friday. Senator
Logan altered a truth which vail be
appre lated in this Territory, to whose
sore distress it has been exemplihed.
Speaking of the lawful powers OF Con
gress TO pass the I'LL under discussion.
and denying the right of the national
legislature 20 enact the law. Logan be-
moaningly said he did not expect his
words to have any weight in the Sen
ate, for he always noticed that when the
Senate was determined to dOs thing il
turned a deaf ear TO everything else,
whether law or fact, that Snterfered
with its purpose" 1t is this vicious,
RECKLESS tendency Of the Senate which
has brought so much troubleend sutser
ing TO the people of Utah. Undcr the
leadership of Edmunds, the Senate has
long been determined" to cypress and
destroy the Mormons. and in pursu-
anoe of that discrimination has turned
a deaf ear 70 everything else, whether
Law or fact, that interfered with its pur-
pose" When the 6rst Ednunds bill was
before the Senate, the only able argu-
ments presented were those against the
measure. A few conscientious Senators
honestly and n0bly protested against
the passage Of the cruel, unconsti-
tutional bill, and begged that the SEN
ate, in its mad desire to crush the
Saints, would not lose ite reason and dis
regard law, justice and fact: but their
appeals were without avail. The SEN
ate was determined and IL turned a deaf
ear. this same Senator Logan joining in
the disregard of everything, whether
Law OF fact, which interfered with the
purpose Of the Senate.
When leading Senators will publicly
make the confession hat Logan made
on Friday as to how the body legislates.
it should occasion nc surprise that so
many laws are crude in construction
and their validity and constitutionality
are so often called in question before
the courts. The Senators are svsyed
ard controlled by sentiment and
passion instead Of being governed by
reason and an intelligent desire to keep
within the line OF right. duty and law.
