THE SCRIP TAX CASE.

The success Of Senator Rawllns In
getting through the upper house a bill
to restore TO Utah merchants the scrip
tax unlawfully collected by o. J. Hollis
ter IN 1878 Is very pleasing to one
person, who paid none OF that tax, but
who has recently made use Of those
prosecutions Of a quarter Of a century
ago to show that lt was not even then
'polygamy' that "Mormons" were
fighting, but that they were bent on
bankruptlng monogOmists and polyga-
mists alike for the purpose OF destroy
Ing the "M7G-on" Church. The per-
SOM alluded TO above was the auditor
OF The Cat on the Roof Mr.. Charles
