LAW BREAKERS OF HISTORY.


The mere charge that person Is
law-breaker, does not count against
him In tho enlightened public opinion
II all depends on circumstances There
are law-breakers and law.breakers
Some are Justly visited with the pen
altles Of divine and human laws. Others
are not only exonerated by history
but honored as benefactors OF the HUI
man race. Had It not been for some
law breakers" civilization would not
have advanced much. Most reformers
OF the past ages, 10 whom we are In
debted for the knowledge OF truth and
the enjoyment Of liberty have been
under the necessity Of breaking some
human laws and regulations, to make
room for advanced Ideas.
Wycliffe the English reformer, was
n breaker when he gave TO the
people the Word Of God in the vernacu-
lar, and thus laid the foundation for
the glorious Engl'9h literature, that
has been beacon light 10 the world,
ever since. At least. his dead body
was dug up and burned TO ashes, In
1928, by the authorities that had per-
secuted him during his lifetime. John
Huss, the eminent Bohemian scholar
and admirer OF Wycliffe, was a "law-
breaker" For he was condemned to
death and consigned to the flames In
the year lil5, Sayonarola, the celebrate
ed patriot priest, and statesman. one
Of Italy's noblest sons. suffered n SINH
lar faith IN 1885 And these men, with
hosts OF other "law.breakers' were but
the pioneers Of that reformation, Of
which Martin Luther became the
great leader And Luther himself was
forced 10 become q law breaker He
was forced to defy priests councils and
princes, and he crowned his work when,
in 1895, he--the priest, sworn to celibacy
married the young and noble Saxon
nun Catherine Won Bora. also commit.
ted to a single life. All these were
law. breakers" but who can say how
much civilization is indebted to them?
What were the fathers Of the American
revolution, II Judged by the then ex'
listing laws and obligations? And yet,
history places all these men upon high
pedestals, as reformers, benefactors
martyrs. saints, and heroes,
Most law breakers deserve the chas-
tsement OF the law, but history has
some "law-breakers, 20 whom It
points with pride as the vanguard in
the battle Of civilization against the
forces Of evil Ignorance and prejudIces,
The true martyrs Of Christianity are
among these law-breakers.

OF prominent "Mormons" who married
plural wives before the Manifesto, It
has argued repeatedly as TO their posi-
ton generally and their duties in the
relations they had formed. Therefore
there is nothing new in the declarations
Of President Smith, except as they APP
ply TO the individuals named In his an
swers TO questions which, while they
would not be permitted In any Amerl-
can court, have been frankly answered
without hesitation or equivocation.
"Mormonism" is being held UP before
the nation In way that could not
otherwise be obtained for It. Prominent
men and earnest women will learn

Their light. There Is nothing IN II but

today, than In many other States of the
Union.
OF course the state Of society outside
OF Mormondom will not be entered into
In this investigation, but 1t would not
be amlss for people who are holding up
their hands In holy horror mt men who
have plural wives and will not cast
them off In any particular, to take note
OF common relations in the Christian
cities OF this country, that are not only
unlawful but frequently involve the de-
sertlon and population Of women and
children, and conduct that Is both
heartless and animal.
The lifting up OF the curtain that
hides these practices would, disclose an
array Of skeletons that would be
both startling and hideous and, mark 1t,
one need not go very far from this city
to nnd cases in point How would
some Of the blatant howlers against
"Monmons" who, I'm order 10 act justly
and honorably with their families, find
themselves in face OF mlsdemeanor
relish a retaliatory movement for the
enforcement OF statutes and ordinances
that would strike In unexpected quar-
ters, and would nightly disturb many
select social crcles9
Mind this! We make no comparison
between the evils that abound In this
Christian" land that are winked at
and condoned, and the system Of we'd
lock revealed through the Mormon
prophet. God forbid We simply give
"A hint TO some Of the corrupt and de-
PRAYED gentlemen 90 who attack the
Saints and are soaked themselves In
debauchery or spattered with vice, that
they are not Giving within the law"
and II III becomes them to shout and
point the finger at men who would
rather forfeit their lives than descend
to the level Of their reyilers. But as
the Great Master advised to His fol-
lowers, let the Saints possess their souls
in patience!

Dowle, the Zlonlte, whose move upon

time In Australia, where he went eX-
pectIng to make a host Of converts and

sydney he was mobbed whenever he
appeared In public. His meetings had

In spite Of the assistance Of large pO-
lice force, were unable TO prevent or

lowed him 10 his hotel, and made so
threatening demonstrations that on one
occasion he escaped through the back
door to avoid violence and spent the
night riding about the city in a car
riage. Finally. ne took refuge In a sub.
urban retreat. He declares that In sgd
ney he experienced the worst treatment
Of his life. and lately he left the place
TO go 10 Melbourne, where, II was said,
still more hostile reception would be
given TO him, The Australian people
appear TO take very little stock IN the
pretensions OF this sef-styled prophet.
They regard him as a fakir, and are
more intolerant toward him than the
people OF the cities Of America have
been.

The criticism Of the American Bible
society by Rev. Or. Moxom OF Spring
field. and other prominent clergymen.
has called out a vigorous reply from
those at whom II was directed, and the
controversy IL likely TO continue as long
as the columns OF the public press re-
main open to the contestants, for each
side carries heavy batteries and the
guns are not easily silenced. The So
clety has undertaken to answer the lat.
est structures from the Springfield
clergyman. One Of the princlpa
charges against II is that Il persistently
excludes all versions Of the Bible In
English but the St James version The
reply made TO this Is that special
committee of the society has been at
work for some time considering the
complications connected with tho lssu-
Ing OF the revised version, which has,
however, been requested only by a
small, though a distinguished portion
OF It's constituency Doubtless
this portion Of its constituency
Is growing, however, and az
the revised version, which Is
supposed TO represent scriptural Inter-
probation through more advanced schol-
arshIp, must make It's way through that
class, II at all, all students Of the Bible
ought TO have the privilege OF getting
what they call for.
