M0RMONS IN GERMANY.


A Salt Lake citizen, native OF the
"FOtherland," writes to the News"
1T is pleasing to note the friendly
spirit and feeling between our country
and that of Germany as has been
shown during the visit of Prince Hen
ry OF Prussia, the brother Of the Ger
man emperor We people, the Nor
mons who have many missionaries
abroad In the German empire, are.
gratihed to learn of the change OF sem
tlment towards the since they
knew Of the warm reception
given TO the prince. In the
early sixties when the first branches
Of the Church were established In Ba-
den and Wittemberg under the drec-
tlon OF Elder John l.. Smith and other
Utah Elders, assisted by local Elders,
the latter were arrested imprisoned and
made to fare on bread and water for
days at time. They were absolutely
forbidden TO proselyte their religion
even among their own relatives. But
things have changed, for In these same
localities the Elders have the protec-

and IN holding open public meetings,
As a result many honest souls are be-
ing gathered into the fold, and Elders
are in demand everywhere In the em-
plre of Germany,
THE work OF cur Elders therefore
viii have a far reaching effect, The
poorer classes, the people who general
ly listen to the gospel gladly, are as
sisted to Utah, where through their
honesty. industry and frugality they
become useful and oftenumes wealthy
citizens Many Of them return to their
native land to secure the highest edu-
cation in the arts and sciences, and
so when we take from the empire the
poor and the needy we send them back
after while TO enter the highest in
stltutions Of learning In the land and
by this process materially assist In
the elevation Of the fatherland
Therefore Germany and Mormon
ISM are engaged in the work Of reci-
procty, and we hope the spread of this
spirit win be profitable, In national
sense to both nations"

report to the attorney general The
