PoIitico Church History IS
Brought Out in the Smoot
Investigation.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 10
One of the most interesting and i'm
portant features of the investigation of
the Smoot case was brought out today
in the testimony of E. B. Critchlow,
formerly an assistant United States at
torney in Utah, who told the story of
the Moses Thatcher episode. Accord
ing to his version, which was borne out
by official records, Apostle Thatcher
persisted in continuing as a candidate
for the United States senate, against
the wishes of a quorum of the apostles,
and on that account was held to be
mot in harmony with his quorum" The
history of the campaign he made
against the wishes of his fellow Nor
mons, of his defeat and his subsequent
trial before a committee of church Off
cials, was given in detail, and then
-Thatcher's submission to the will of the
church was read and put in the record
of the Smoot investigation.
This recantation showed Thatcher
totally broken in spirit and bowing alb
soluteIy to the mandates of the church
in that the consent of an officers quo
rum must be obtained in order that he
may continue in good standing. The
purpose of tie testimony wss to snow
that it was necessary, according to the
rules of the church, for Reed Smoot to
have obtained the consent Of the
church before he could have become
candidate for the senate. Mr.. Critch-
low gave the history of the prosecu-
tions in Utah on charges Of polyga-
nous cohabitation since the passage of
the Edmunds law and the legislation In
the territory and state which affects
Mormonism or polygamy.
Andrew Jensen, the assistant histo-
rian of the church, gave testimony
showing the supremacy of the president
of the church. He related the methods
of the church, it's control by presidents
of stakes and bishops. The president
of the church, said this witness, ap-
pointed the president Of the stakes.
some hfty-three in number, and these
latter appointed the bishops, several
hundred in number. The bishops could
not act until their appointment was
approved by the president Of the
church.

things come to such a pass in this
State that man cannot criticize pub
lie matters? The press is the medium
through which the masses receive
their information, and only through
it can they know the great questions
of the day but, if every time man
expresses his views upon a subject he
is to be hauled up and fined or i'm
prisoned. how will the people know
the trend of thought? The press will
be afraid to express the views of its
people, their privileges curtailed, and
the great power and usefulness will
be destroyed. We contend for that
greatest of our rights, the freedom of
speech, and the most effective way to
exercise that privilege is through the

Dangerous Encroachment of Federal
Judiciary.
Wadesboro Messenger & Intellie


The longer we live and the more we
see of the necessity for the constant
vigilance of the great masses, to pre-
serve their rights as the sovereign
factors of government under the inSti-
tutionS bought with the best blood and
sacrifices of our faithful patriot faith
ers, the more we find to admire and
reverence in that great apostle of lib
erty Thomas Jefferson. He has
taught us that the encroachments of a
practically irresponsible Federal judi
ciary is among the most to be dreaded
instrumentalities provided under the
constitution by and under which evil
disposed power can work oppression
and wrong to the States and the peo-
pie. We view with alarm recent mani
festation of the disposition of the
reckless and grasping to invoke the
power of the Federal courts to do such
damaging and hurtful things, that is
we'll known could not be accomplish
ed by the consent and authority of the
state courts, which are responsible to
and derive their place and power by
suffrage of the whole people.
1t is time that the people now pro-
test against the growing tendency of
Federal authority, under forms of law,
to lend itself, by the instrument of
Federal judges, to usurp authority and
do imperious and culpable acts. We
believe that the people are supreme,
that all Offices by whatever name are
amenable to them, and that the public
and the press which they maintain and
support are free to discuss criticise
and condemn all acts of public Off
Gals, whether of executive, legislative
or judicial officers, which are calcu-
lated to affect injuriously and wrong
fully the rights of the State or any
of the citizens thereof. We cannot
and will not, without protest, remain
quiet when we see efforts made to
throttle legitimate criticism and cen
sure by the public press which is the
means of giving us the intelligence of
the doings of our public officers.
In the light of such intelligence as
we have we believe the act of a FEEDER
al court, sitting in Raleigh, in impos-
ing what seems to us cruel and UNI
usual punishment upon JoSephus
Daniels, editor of The News and OBJ
server, for reasonable criticism upon
the acts of a judge, to be subVerSiVe
of liberty and the guaranteed rights of
the press and of free speech, and we
believe that the time has arrived when
the teachings of Democracy shall be
made effective by the votes of the peo-
pie, and when the political party to
which the said Judge belongs and
from whose political teachings he gets
his inspiration, shall be driven from
power in the United States and super
coded by a party which is in harmo-
ny and spirit with the hopes, aspira-
tons and work of the founders of our
government, in building a government
of the people, by the people, for the
people.

CndrlOlle NEWS.
When the Democratic State press is
denouncing, with almost unanimous
voice an act of high-handed usurpa-
ton by a Federal Judge, involving the
very liberty of the press itself it is not
exactly to the credit of the newspaper
profession that the three papers which
are the main rivals of The News ana
Observer, should add discordant voices
to the chorus. People are slow to be-
lieve in the honesty Of editorial opln-
ion when it is influenced by personal
and commercial rivalry.
