in reference TO the validity Of Church
divorce Wien the parties had been le-
gally married, is perfectly correct the
Church never claimed the right to d.
vorce parties to a legal marriage ana

obtained, the Church may perform us

ment in the salt Lake Herald that the
decision In relation TO Mormon Church
divorces deals a blow at one Of the
Saints teachings IL entirely untrue
and shows great misunderstanding OF
the subject touched upon.
The decision Of the court that seal
ing" Is legal marriage is neither new
nor surprising, as announced TO the
public. An Elder in the Church OF
Jesus Christ Of Latter-day Saints has
Just as much right to unite in marriage
persons competent in law to enter that
relation, as any minister or magis-
trate, or other public functionary so
authorized by law A sealing performed
in the Temple by an appointed servant
Of God for time and all eternity Is le-
gal and binding for this world so far
as secular law Is concerned, and has
the further power Of extending into the
world to come. Courts win recognize
the sealing as marriage for this
world, but they win not have anything
to do with that which pertains TO the
eternal world,
If the ce.H.Ny between Dr. Park
and Hiss Armltage was simply a seal
ing of the parties to take effect only in
a future state, there was no marriage
between them under the civil law. II
they were sealed for time and all eter-
nifty, the union was marriage before
the law to all intents and purposes and
nothing but death or the decree of a
civil court could sever that time re-
lation. II the evidence had been con-
elusive as to this fact, the decision Of
the Supreme Court could not
be legally or nationally complained Of

the signature OF the wife was necessary

be seen, The case cannot be taken
to a higher court, as II is a matter
that pertains to this State and not 10
the United States. There may be no
difficulties in this particular and there
may be many. The court could not
properly take this into consideration
We believe the judges have acted com
