A Portion of the Other Side.

presumably lays the Others on the
shelf. Does the law separate him
from those wives? Are the ties and
relations that have existed for years
broken by this single law and at Il mo-
ment's notice? NO. viii that man
cast away his wives and know them
no morey viii he merely visit them
occasionally and throw in ham for
their sustenancc? win he regard
that law seriously and abide 10y con-
diton imposed upon him by the eX-
actions Of people he has always be-
lieved his enemies, even though lead
crs agreed to that law in order TO Sc
cure certain rights accorded those
enemies? No, he will not and in Utah
he is regarded as less than human II
he does accept that law in all its full
ness. He will continue to visit his
wives, he will continue to support
them and he will continue to be a
husband to them.
The REPUBLICAN does not argue
that this position Is right. 1t simply
sets out that this view is held in
Utah, and that view would certainly
be held by many Of those now arrayed
against Utah, il they were placed in
like condition. The position is cer-
tainly decidedly in the line of human
nature, and while it may not be con-
doned by those in martial array, be-
cause of the fact that this question is
connected with other vital questions,
yet with many the peculiar position
of these men and women will serve as
palliation for the mooted otfense.
The fact that these are two sides
to all questions should not be ignored.

There is one phase of the Utah
question which outsiders do not care |
to admit and refuse to tolerate-and |
that is that there is and always has
been tacit understanding that Nor
mons having entered into polygamous
relations before the manifesto were
not to be disturbed in their relations
with their plural wives as long as the
condition was not Haunted before the
people. President Smith says lie never
knew of such an understanding, but
despite this testimony, this much
mooted understanding has been
generally accepted as a fact and Few
have been concerned that these rela-
tions are continued in many cases.
Conditions that seem intOlerable to
the people east and west are under
stood better 10y people on the ground,
and many of those seriously adverse to
polygamy and greater part or Nor
monism believe that the Latter-day
Saint, who having entered into plural
marriage prior to IA law forbdding 1t,
would be less than Il man IL he per-
mitted chat law to influence him TO
such an extent that he should deny
the cast-oif wives more than the bread
and meat necessary to sustain them.
Picture If you will man of sterling
character entering into marriage rela-
tions with two, three or more women
of good birth and breeding, this man
and these women having been brought
up i'm Il religious faith that taught
this relation as the one means of ex-
allied glory.
Look further at the picture and see
this man and these women living the
religion that has been taught them.
In many instances the family rela-
tions are congenial, and in the course
of years there is a tiXednesS of life and
we believe it possible that there is an
affection for the various wives pos
sbly favorite, but nevertheless an
affection that reaches further than
one.
Consider that in order 10 obtain GER
tain rights accorded other people, the
great leaders of this organizat ion
which has taught polygamy and en-
tered into 1t, agrees to renouncc that
practice. a law is enacted making it
unlawful to live with more than one
OF these former half dozen, and this
sterling man OF good character takes
his choice as the law provides, and

The admissions of President Joseph
+. Smith were not unexpected by
those who know him best. The anti
Mormon element in Utah has always
believed that Joseph +. is the persona
iication Of fanaticism, hence have
been expecting that that fanaticiSm
would lead him to boldly announce his
position aud stand by it, Those of
the same faith of the President refuse
the word fanatic" and insist that
he has always had the courage of his
convictions" born of Testimony"
that those convictions are correct,
hence expected him to do as he has
done-givc straightforward answers
to all questions.
lusI how The people of the United
States will accept the Presidents
testimony is not hard to conjecture.
Many will admire his honesty and
courage and find in sentiment an ex-
cuse for his open and direct violation
of law. The great majority will see
nothing but the violation of solemn
compact with the government, and
can not, WILL NOT find an excuse for
him.
The great majority understands
that a compact was entered into with
the Mormon church: they understand
whether right or wrong) that tie
President and the quorum of the
Apostles dominate the body of the
people religiously; they understand
that the President is regarded as a
seer and revelator and the nearest
approach to heaven: they understand
that his example would have a wide
spread effect, and would be justifi-
cation for those who desire to follow
in his steps; they believe and always
have belle we'd that the church Of Lat
ter-day Saints has for its foundation
nothing more than the qualification
of sensual desires and the aggandize-
ment of a favored few in the church

prophecy and Zion land of prophets,
seers and revelators, but it is doubtful

cult Truths"
Occult Truths"is a monthly maya
zine limiting at Divine alchemy or that
wisdom and those mysteries which
alone can be understood by initiates.
The prophecy referred to above and
which follows below was made In a
reply TO a subscriber who asked GER
tain questions. The editor writes:
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1904-03-05

mckinley will die in the midst OF
his second term and Roosevelt will
finish the term. Four years hence
Roosevelt will be elected president to
succeed himself. During his presi-
dency the United States will become
involved in "a world-war and will be
miraculously victorious over five al
lied European nations. Roosevelt's
name will go down to postcrity as
equal to or greater than Washing
tons or Lincoln's."
Following his prophecy the writer
Challenges every believer in evil to
send a prophecy to be placed beside
this. On the outcome, shall be the
issue of whether evil is or is not able
to prophecy"
The prophecy made in 1900, nine
months prior to Mr.. Mckinley's death
proved true, and that in reference to
Roosevclt's reelection seems certain
ty at the present time. 1t is an undis-
puted fact that there is great anxiety
on the part of all nations lest the pre-
sent Russian-Japanese struggle ter
inmate i'm a world-war.
Whether the United States could be
drawn Into that struggle is a conjec-
ture of course, but it seems doubtful
whether 1t would be possible for this
country to avoid fight being thrust
upon her.
The prophecy is at least interesting
at this time.
