Elder Penrose, Of Utah, is
out with q violent denial of the
charge made by the Christian
ministers of Utah that pol.~ga-

polygamous marriages are still

union of church and state. Ifhe
had stopped with the denial of
polvgamy, perhaps he might

ton is needen it is in the other
direction. There are too many
men attempting to practice now
who are not qualified either by
character or attainments.
