MOrIllOn0.

The Mormon. with all his primitive pre-
cepts OF life, with all the demands OF his
moral code. Is not an austere or gloomy
person IL is true that even in a country
where the pioneer keeps no calendar.
where the names OF days are lost in the
monotony OF their duties, the Mormon has
not swerved from the mandate concerning
Sunday. IL Is true, alSo-whether poverty
or precept be the controlling mouve-that
bread and milk are often his main sus-
tenance: that tobacco Is little used by the
orthodox: that the saints are no ''riotous
eaters OF flesh" that the sobriety for
which the Mormon Is noted arises from
the advocacy of total abstinence. There
even seems TO be strong warrant for the
Mormon's boast OF personal purity. This
much admitted as approximate verify, I
pass over his defects as irrelevant to the
present purpose, and simply note that.
with all the severity and soberness OF his
environment, the Mormon Is not stepped
In sadness Take him as encountered In
the farming conmunitles-since IL is here
that he is most typfcal-and you viii find
him no enemy of rational amusement. 1
am not sure that his ideas OF recreation
are broad enough TO admit OF card play
ing without stakes; but the village dance,
opened and closed with prayer, is fire.
quent pastlme, and hymns are not his
only music.
The Mormon, in TACT. Is neither rnofOSe
nor emotional You can trace the process
OF the thought that chains him to the
church neither to gloom nor to ecstacy.
Yet what should the contempt and execra-
ton Of Gentiles. the sober statements Of
impartial historians. the contradictions OF
expounded doc -rine-what should these
things weigh with one who hears voices
from on high and all but sees the visible
hand OF the Lord stretched forth 20 saver
With what patience may a chosen people
bear the sheer that Classics the New
Mexico population as white men. Mexi-
cans. Indians and MormonsF With
what superior wisdom, what conscious
rectitude. may they meet the Nauvoo
woman's arralgnment Of a prophet who
foretold the civil war. the Gentiles' sus-
pfcfon Of a later seer whose promise OF
protection against savaEes was wonder
fully made good, With what serene indif-
ference may they overlook the Missouri
ans gfbes and charges OF n1isdoing-they
who were diyinely directed through myrf-
al dangers. across trackless and inhos-
pltable wastes, 20 the land OF the honey
bee.
There is pretty fable in the west-to
