SAMPLES OF CHURCH INFLUENCE,

Elsewhere in The Herald will be
found very important letter on
church influence in Cache valley poll
tics, written by one who knows of
what he speaks.
The facts set forth show how per-
niciously active designing persons have
been in Cache county in their efforts
to sway men in their political action
by playing upon their religious be-
liefs.
If it were not so serious it would
be wonderfully amusing to know that
such an argument" as that if men
"voted the Democratic ticket they
would lose their salvation" was ever
used by anyone but an idiot. There
is only one kind of man in the world
who would resort to such arguments"
in politics, and that is the man who
is born knave and scoundrel.
No fair-minded, honest man but will
say such things are a disgrace to Utah
politics and that it is high time they
ceased, and that those who are guilty
of them should be made to desist.
And will not every sincere Mormon
blush to think that his religion is
prostituted to such base things and
by such vile creatures?

FIRMNEss AND MODERATION.

In the present crisis in the political
history of Utah whatever action may
be taken it should be taken in firm
ness and moderation, to employ the
wise words of Hon. Moses Thatcher
There should be no eXaggeration of
what has occurred, neither should it
be allowed to be glozed over nor made
to appear as a matter of no moment.
1t was a momentous thing, SO momen-
tous that it has stirred all the people
to the very core. And why? Because
it shows that if what is known as
church influence in Utah can still be
invoked in politics it will be able to
dominate them, and dominating them
make them a farce and those engaged
in them but tools, consciously or un-
consciously. When such a, state Of
affairs exists there is no liberty of in
dividual action.
When something happens that
brings this condition about is it not
serious? Is it not time some action
was taken to prevent its recurrence?
1t certainly is. And by whom can it
be more properly taken than those
who are injured?
1t was the Democratic party that
was injured, and it is its right and its
duty to take such action as in it's wis
dom, shall seem best calculated to I'M
do the harm done it and prevent, if
possible, the repetition of these things
in the future.
President Smiths remarks may have
been misconstrued by those who heard
them, but today men are Still using
them for their own sinister purposes,
and among that class of citizens who
can be more or less swayed by church
influence if they think it the desire of
the First Presidency.
The men who will resort to these
things are dangerous and must be de-
prived of their power to do evil. And
when they are doing evil their ways
must be made known, their hidden in
tent made public.
Because of all this the state commit
tee has thought it best to reconVene
the Ogden convention that it may fully
deliberate on the case and devise a
plan of action that viii produce a
remedy. All it does will be done with
frmness and moderation.

balance, where the honor of people

MoRMoNs AS MUCH AS GENrrLEs.

Mormons have more interest in get
ting rid of church influence" than
have Gentiles. The latter believe that
our social happiness, commercial pros
perity and even public peace depend
upon getting rid of this element. They
also quite naturally resent the exis-
tence of a power which upon a word
springs into existence and demon
strates that the best laid political plans
of men gang aft aglee." Under such
conditions politics becomes a tragic
farce and popular government a hope
less dream.
In addition to these reasons, the Lat
ter-day Saints believe, at least quite
generally, that the harmony and
growth of the church are absolutely
inconsistent with the probability that
at any juncture the influence which
comes from the whole people either of
the church, of a stake or of a ward,
may be used against the political in
terests, affiliations and convictions of
any part of that people. Therefore it
may be depended upon that public
peace and happiness. general prosper
ity and the welfare Of the church will
combine to cause the Mormon people
to work to prevent designing men
from seeking political advantage by
imposing upon the creduiity of their
brethren.

A popuLIsT FALsEHooD.

A Populist paper here, as an in
ducement for people to vote for the
Populist candidate for Congress, de-
clares that ALLEN has always been a
very bitter Liberal" and that the
dignitaries of the Mormon Church
have repudiated Mr.. Roberts, the
Democratic candidate for Congress"
The argument is, of course, that moth
ing is left for a certain class of citi
zens except to vote for the Populist
nominee.
But the premises are unsound in
that little bit of Populistic sophistry.
The statement as to Allen is doubtless
correct
The statement about "the Church"
and Mr.. Roberts is not true. The gen.
tleman has not been "repudiated." No
word of reputation has been uttered
concerning him. 1t must not be stated
without denial that the Church has
done anything of the kind Whether
it be important or not does not matter.
The falsehood is told for political eff
feet, and though what Populists say
will cut a very small figure in election
matters, such an impression as the
utterance we quote is designed to
make must not be permitted to effect
its purpose. 1t is a lie, pure and SIM
pie, and is no better because it is a
Populist lie and used for campaign
purposes. Populism no more than Re
publicanism will profit by falsehOod
and chicanery in this election.

1t is perhaps needless to say, the dress
pattern never materializes. When the
Life of Leather" is used it makes a
brilliant polish for a short time. which
fades out and leaves the leather in a
sticky condition, worse than it was be-
fore the application. The stuff is a
swindle, the dress pattern is all on the
certificate.
1t is represented that as a living hide
is waterproof, the life of it is by some
chemical process extracted, SO that
when applied to dead leather it will
impart that quality and also preserve it
from decay. 1t is further pretended
that only one can may be sold in one
place. because of the gift of the dress
pattern, and that the purpose of this
is to get as many testimonials as pos
sible, SO as to induce store keepers to
lay it in stock.
OF course the swindlers sell as many
as possible every where and then de-
camp with their ill-gotten gains. The
tricked buyer waits in vain for the

RESULTS OF THE NEW TARIFF.

A short time ago the telegraph
brought the news of a very large Eng
Hsh firm entering into negotiations for
the purchase and enlargement of extern
sive wooden mills in this country. That
was a consequence of the free wool
clause Of the Democratic tariff law
The reduction in the duty on wooden
goods which of necessity cheapens the
price of wooden goods did not deter the
enterprise, IN face of the free wool
provision which places the American
manufacturer on equal ground with
the English competitors as to raw ma
terial, with the advantage of the
present duty as to the prices of the
manufactured article. The Dry Goods
Reporter, Republican paper has the
following bit of news from Niagara
Falls relating TO similar results:
The Massey Manufacturing company,
of Toronto, employing 1900 men, has
determined to remove its factory to
the United States and is looking for
site near the falls. MI H. A. Massey
tells a reporter that it is the new tar
if bin that has attracted him to these
shores He says: THE Canadian gov
eminent reduced the DUTY on manu-
featured goods from 20 to 50 per cent,
but kept the duty on raw materials as
high as ever, thus enabling the Amer

other Republican source Frank Les

A MOUNTAIN OUT OF A MOLE HILL.

"You Democrats are making a

the Republican comments on current
local events.

Does any reasonable citizen doubt
those remarks were used? Does any
person doubt that such use was ruin

doubts could spring only from ignor-

information which has reached Demo-
