II must be remembered that the Brit

Some people seem to have very indis-
tinct ideas Of what persecution" Is.
They contend that there has been no
religious persecution In this country.
From their point OF view John the Bap-
list was no martyr. because undoubt-
edly his was a erlmen lase majestatis;
the early Christian martyrs were not
the victims Of persecution, for they re-
fused to obey certain DEGREES OF the
emperors; Huss was no martyr, only an
obstinate law-breaker. who defended
the truth as he saw IT, What is perse-
cution and what constitutes a martyr?
II ever there were one entitled to
that distinction, our Prophet IS, and the
faithfuness with which he laid down
his life for the truth given TO him, will
yet prove a blessing TO his native land,
and TO the world.

We hope and believe that some AT
least OF our experienced and talented
physicians In this city. many OF whom
are estimable gentlemen, will take the
pains to inquire into the other side OF
the vaccination question, from that In
which they were trained when receiving
their medical education. They Will be
surprised at the evidences to be OBJ
tained in opposition to orthodox notions
and statistics on this subject
The Deseret News has contended for
nothing more than that personal liberty
which is guaranteed TO every citizen, as
TO his personal protection and that OF
his children. II has stood for the en-
forcement OF all rational regulations
for the preservation Of the public
health, and II las resisted nothing that

misrepresented but will not on that
account refrain from expressing its
honest convictions or from maintaining
the rights and liberties Of the people.

supporting them. Religion has de-
nounced them. Social scientists have
sought 10 suppress or restrict them.

devil has fostered them, and the paper

them as a oounteracting influence to

Richard Franklin Pettigrew, Of South

was not sustained by single senator.

The tone Of the newspapers OF the

effort TO have ArIlnaldo's statement
published Ia the Congressional Rec
ord" Is not likely to encourage that
gentleman 10 persist In HIS traitorous
undertaking, for the roasting he re-
ceived from his fellow senators last
Wednesday is mild compared with most
OF the newspaper comments. Pettigrew
has not yet announced whether he will
again endeavor 20 have Aguinsld's at
tscks upon American army and navy
officers published At government ex.
