MORMONS AND THE DEMOCRACY.
A WORTHY ENTERPRISE ENDANGERED By DEN
OCRATIC OPPOSITION.

Washington, Oct. Q (SpeclaD-The pro-Mormon
record of the Democracy is to say tho least, con
siscnt From the beginning that party has oostructed
covertly or openly every movement LOOKING 10 INC
suppression OF the sanctimonious bestial'y
practlsed by the saints. No ono familiar
with the yartys record can doubt that II by any
means the Senate should lose its Republican majority
the Democracy would seek 10 pcrpetuate It's power by
the unconditional admission OF Utah, polygamy anu
all to the slserhood of States. \ year ago tho
Woman's Industrial Christian Union OF Utah. an
organization supported by Christian women in all parts
of the country secured the insertion in the General
Deficiency bill Of a clause which made provision for
beginning the erection of buildings in salt Lake City,
which were 10 furnish asylum for the RELIEF ana
protection Of dependent women who were heclng
from lives OF polygamy, for their children, and Tor
other unfortunate women who had been tempted 10
Utah by false representa- atoms and were likely to be
forced against their wills into polygamous relation
sblps Acting under the provisions of this law the
womcn's organization have bought their land let
their for the construction OF part OF the
proposed structure and have already had the founda
tions laid. The work in fair way for CON-
pleon during the present season, and It already
gave promise Of success, than hundred appl
cations for admission having been received. The
Mormon hierarchy, however have now become alarmed
and through their Delegate in Congress and through
other open to them, the Church has enlisted
the obstructive services OF the Democratic party.
The General Deficiency bill has been hanging back
mysteiously in conference for some time and the
cause of the delay is known to be the pro-
vision inserted in the bill by the Senate to continue
the work on the home The confcrees
representing tho Democrats OF the House
provision designed TO carry Into effect the existing
law There are three other minor points OF diff
ference but the only really important hitch is upon
this provision to transfer the whole enterprise TO
the custody OF tho Treasury-a proposition which,
even II designed in good faith, would have the
effect Of disastrously delaying tho good work, but
which, in view Of the motives which are known
from the custody of the noble women who conceived
f. and under tho pressure which the Mormon Church
could bring would nulfy the entire effort. The
hostility Of the Mormon Church Is open and marked.
The principal supporters OF the projected home are
the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and the
home missionary societies Of the country.
