polygamy is doctrine Endorsed and
taught by the book of Mormon. I have
been an earnest believer, a constant
reader, and an enthusiastic admirer of
the book or Mormon for the last forty
years; therefore, certainly 1 ought to
know something about it.
I will say, then, that q grosser de-
fusion than that never existed among
men. The book of Mormon purports to
give an account of the coming Of the
forefathers of the Indian races to this
Western hemisphere. The family Of a
man called Lehi, and some others, 1t
states, were directed of the Almighty, in
the lifetime of jeremiah the prophet, and
of Zedekiah, king of Judah, shortly be-
fore the Babylonian captivity, and abSLt
600 years before Christ, to emigrate from
Jerusalem, unto this land, now called
America. 1t also gives a complete ac-
count of their journey, which will not
enlarge upon. This man Lehi is repre-
scented to be a prophet, and that he was
directed by dreams, and such other means
as God always used with His people, for
the purpose of instructing them in the
knowledge of His will. That is, 1 mean,

realizing how thick and fast the fusilade
would follow, 1 knew that we would
sQuander for him the greater part of the
afternoon.
Yet he proved to be so obliging and
willing, and talked of all we wished to
know in such an entertaining way, that
we forgot our qualms of conscience as
to using his time In our interest in the
subject.
Besides Superintendent Morgan there
are only two men employed at the hatch
cry, which, considering the large amount
of work which must be done, seems
wholly inadequate. One of the men is
constantly on the road. for when the
supplies are sent out to the lakes, streams, !
and ponds throughout the state q man
from the hatchery must accompany them.
A large number of visitors daily come
to the hatchery and the pleasure and
instruction derived from a visit to the
place would be doubled were there al
ways some one there who has the leisure
and the knowledge to explain how the
work is carried on. This cannot be ex-
pected of the superintendent and his as
sistant for they now have more than
enough work to care for the fish.
Before we left we witnessed the IN
teresting process Of feeding the fish
They are fed with mixture of red-dog
flour and beef liver, which is boiled until
it forms a sort of mush. This is car
ried in great pals to the different tanks,
and thrown to the fish in small quanti-
ties from the point of stick. They seem
to know when 1t is feeding time. and
crowd eagerly to the sides of their i'm
provised ponds, and reach up their heads
for the food. Yet. they are not greedy, |
and do not fight for place, or for the
morseFs which fall, perhaps because they
are so well fed that they have learned
to know that there will be enough for ALL
There are not sufficient fish yet to supply
all the waters in the state, but about
two-thirds are now being supplied. Many
a good days sport is thereby furnished

1t was his duty to kill him in retaliation.
The establishment Of the missionaries may
be well imagined. They cited to him the
commandment, Thou shalt not kill" and
dWelt upon the awful sinfulness of such
an act, and ne would say, ''I know what
the Bible says, and I believe in Sundays,
but he killed my cousin Then they
would attack him on the laws of the re-
public, of which he was a high official
and dwell upon the dreadful example
such an act would set before the breth-
rem of the church, and he would reply.
"Oh, yes, I know all that, but he killed
my cousin Then, in despair, they would
tell him that he was no longer an Indian
that he had become white man, and the
law of the white man forbid such re-
venge. Il know all that" he would say,
but he killed my cousin" AS a final
resort, the faithful and believing mis-
sionartes concluded to call in the aid of
heaven to assist them, and they prayed
with Simon for hours, days and nights
In all of which he Joined with fervOr and
urction, but he could not divest himself
Of the all-pervading idea that his cousin
had been killed and the sacred duty de-
volved upon him to avenge his death.
The belief had been born in him and no
religion of the white man could eradicate
it. True to the creed of his ancestors
he got double-barreled shotgun and
went out and killed his enemy.
OF course this murder opened up a new
feud, arraying relative against relative.
and destroyed Simon influence as a dea-
con in the church and an officer Of the
republic to such a degree as almost to
destroy all the good that had been ac-
complished. 1 mention this incident to
show what uncertain ground the mission
aries find to SOW the seeds of Christianity
in when working among savages.
Notwithstanding such discouragements
the above, I believe much good was
done through the efforts of the mission
aries. In times of great trouble and ex-
citement 1 always found the best friends
of the whites among the Indians who had
felt the enlightentng influences of the
missionaries, not excepting Simon, who
with Paul, John Otherday and many 9TH
ers, performed heroic service for the
whites when friends were most needed
but 1 have never been able to settle the
question in my mind as to whether any
of them ever grasped the basic principles
Of the Christian religion.
In 1862 the Sioux openly rebeIled against
the whites, and it was solely through the
good offices of Otherday and Paul that
these missionaries escaped massacre. All
their buildings and their labor of long
years were destroyed, and they were driv-
en- out of the country. Most people would
have thought that they would have had
enough of such a life. l know thought
so, but not so with these devoted people,
Shortly after the suppression of the out
break met DR.. Williamson and asked
him what were his future Intentions
Without the least hesitation he answered
that he should look up the remnant Of hia
tribe and continue his work

Polygamy is brazenly championed by
the leaders of the Mormon church in
Utah No attempt at concealment is
made. There is a law against polygamy
in Utah based on the specific agreement
with the federal government, by which
admission to statehood was secured, but
it is openly ignored. More than this,
Norman leaders admit the fact in court
and 10y actions, if not words, defantly
ask, What are you going to do about
it?"
Angus NJ. Cannon, of Salt Lake City,
Utah, is a man who holds high pace
in Mormon councils. He was indicted for
pclygany, the direct charge being that he
is the father Of a child by DR.. Matte
Hughes Cannon, one of his four plural
wives. the existence of the child being
accepted as proof of marital relation.
Mr.. Cannon made no effort to disprove
the charge. He went boldly into court
and said: What are you going to do
about it?" Mr.. Cannons attitude was

Cannon who figured in the present case,
was badly wanted as a witness, but she
had disappeared. The people who are
seeking to have the law enforced, and
the practice OF polygamy broken up,
supposed that Cannon's second offense
would be met with sentence fully as
severe as that inflicted in 1885 They
argued that he was a hardened offender
of whom an example could be made. But
the power of Mormonism in Utah seems
to be little understood, even by the gem
tiles who are opposing it.

Martha Hughes Cannon was the first

defeated him by 1000 votes. Cannon

with his three other wives during the
campaign, while Martha Hughes, his
wife No. 4. got out and hustled. She

Difficulties Missionaries Encounter
n Planting the Seeds Of Christianity Among
the Savages
BY JUDGE CHARLES E. FLANDRAU.

In the early days of what is now Min
nesota there were two families Of mis-
sionaries located among the Sioux of the
Mississippi, who, like many of their pro-
fession, devoted their whole lives to
spreading the gospel of Christ among the
savages. They were those Of DR.. Will
hanson and the Rev. Stephen R. Riggs,
both of whom lived with these Indians
long before I came among them. When
first became connected with these In
dams I found the missionaries comforta-
bly, installed at the Yellow Medicine

Imperialism. One of the most exemplary
citizens and devout worshipers was Dea-

prayer and 1abored heart and soul for
the good of the republic and the church.
He was the last man that any one would
have expected to fall from grace, and no
one ever thought of such a thing; but,
strange as it may appear, he one day
sought an interview with the missionaries
and announced the astounding fact that
an Indian who had killed his cousin some
eight years before had returned from the
