The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-11-06

Wells associates in this attack upon
me-Judge Goodwin-is authority for
the statement that a law is never en-
forced against the sentiment of com
munity.
Governor Wells knows all this, and
yet he is craven enough in his soul to
join hands with lifelong enemies of his
father and his people and attack me
for doing, if the charges are
true, what, as a private citizen
and a member of the Mormon church,
he dare not lift his voice against. For
discharging those moral obligations
which, if his charges are true, under all
the circumstances, would be an act of
honor.
when the SOW that has been washed
returns to her wallowing in the mire,
we smile at it.
when the dog turns to his vomit, we
sicken at it.
when the bird fouls it's own nest,
we are filled with disgust.
But when man-and that man a
governor of a state-discredits the mar
riage system which gave him birth,
stamps the brand of dishonor on his
own parents, and assumes an attitude
that. carried to it's legitimate concIu-
sions, would put his own sisters be-
yond the pale of the law and mark
them as outcasts, then there is no COM
parison that can express ones con-
! tempt and disgust for such a craven.
q knew Governor Wells father An
honorable man he was. possessed OF
broad views and 'statesman-like quail
tiles. When I think of his noble char
acter, can only wonder that he begot
so unworthy and craven a son.
Shallow Mark Antony, making
friends with those who had killed
Caesar and grasping the bloody hands
OF those who had murdered his friend
could not be more offensive to the
shade of Caesar than this son of Sc
splendid father is offensive to the
shade of D. H. Wells as he sees him
hand and glove with the men who
while D. H. Wells lived, called him the
one-eyed pirate of the Wasatch and
accused him of all the crimes from
murder to petty larceny.
Say that for me through The Salt
Lake Herald to Governor Wells, and
here-that the governor may know
that am personally and everywhere
responsible for it, I'll sign it.
'B. H. ROBERTS,"
