ROOSEVELT NOT AN ISSUE.

President Roosevelt does not hap
pen to be an issue this year. He
is secure in his office and says he
does not desire reelection. AS to
his fame, his place in history, that
is already in the keeping OF the
ages, and does not rest on the vote
of the people of Idaho in the year
of our Lord 1906.
But a very serious matter does in
part rest upon that vote The so
called Mormon church has been a
serious Government to this nation
for three score years. There was
something about it which caused
the men of Ohio, then the men of
Missouri, then the men of Illinois,
to in turn arise and drive the
Mormon people from their midst.
Then they came to Utah and in the
wilderness established a govern
unent of pure theocracy; one man
named all who should hold office,
his will was announced from before
the affairs of their places OF worship,
and the people were hidden tC
confirm his nomination. There
was never "A dissenting vote.
When Gentiles came to Utah the
form was little changed, the fare
OF primary and convention wa
played, but the result was Away
the same-the candidates wer
named by the chief priests OF thi
kingdom and there were not ?
scratched votes on their ticket il
20 years.
At last the nation took alarm an
bin was introduced in congress
to disfranchise every Mormon, o
the ground that all Mormons be
long to and give thier first allie
glance to a perfectly organize
government, which in every attr
butte is hostile to free institution
and especially to the government
the United States.

mincnt. and that they must hedge.
There was first consultation in
San Francisco between the attorneys
and the first presidency of the Nor
on church; then the first presi-
dency returned to this city and
consulted with the apostles, with
the result that the first president 7
of the church issued his manifesto, 4
suspendine poiygamy. This was /
followed by his declaration, and
the declaration of the man who is
now president of the church, that
il meant that there should be no
more plural marriages and no more
living in polygamy. This state
nent was made under oath. In
addition, both were interviewed
and declared that there should be
no more church influence exercised
in politics, that these people should
be tree to espouse any political
principles they pleased and TO vote
for whom they pleased.
This covered all that had ever
been demanded Of them. We never
asked ought of them, except that
they should come within the laws
of the United States. On the
strength of their promises we all
did what we could to obtain state
hood for Utah. One of the apostles
has since admitted that the whole
business, while sincere on the part
of the then president of the church,
was intended by the apostles to de-
ceive the country. 1t was premedi-
tated perfidy. an insult to the pres
ident. congress and people and a
planned revenge on the Gentiles of
Utah.
CHURCH RESUMES ITS RULE
The first apparent treachery vas
the election of B. II. Roberts to
congress, for it was known that he
was living with three or four
} wives. Since then the church has
resumed it's rule as completely over
the people as it was in the old days
Since the manifesto at least four OF
: the apostles have taken new plural
!, wives The man who has charge
of the church schools in Mexico has
: one wife in Utah; he has taker
two more since he removed 20 Mex
leo, and under one prctcxt or an
other these marriages are going or
all over Mormondom- Polygamy

MORMONISM
IS THE ISSUE
Judge Goodwin Points out
how Futile is the If
fort TO Ignore or
Side Step it.

Salt Lake, Utah, Sept. Ito
the Editor Of The Spokesman-Re-
view 1T is with much hesitancy
that approach your request TO give
my views on Mr.. Borah's state
ment, through your columns, that
the people of Idaho ''are not dis
turbed over polygamy and that
church interference with politics
has seen much talked of, but SO
little seen that it does not excite
any consideration in the mind OF
the Idaho) voter. -
Mr. Borah has long been my
friend; at least, | have long held
Mr. Borah as my friend. My polit-
ical instincts are all republican,
hence, since the campaign began
to grow warm in Idaho l have
held aloof, the Tribune of this city
being enlisted to champion the
American side of this question for
Idaho readers. Nothing but sense
of duty causes me to write today.
If Mr.. Borah, while asserting
that polygamy no longer disturbs
Idaho people, and that church inter-
ference in politics excites no con-
sidcration in the minds OF Idaho
voters, was not absolutely certain
of obtaining for his legislative tick
ct every Mormon vote in Idaho, we
suspect that he would find an cx-
cuse for Immediately withdrawing
from the campaign. Now, Mr.
Borah would not have that conf
dencc unless he had reasons for it,
and he could get his reasons only
from one source. This, perhaps,
would be answer enough to his
interview, for but one conclusion
can be reached. Mr.. Borah is
himself deceived, or he is seeking
to deceive his neighbors anc
friends, and Mr.. Borah is a bright
man not liable to be deceived. He
emphasizes the statement that he
is making fight on principle ane
wants the people Of Idaho to stanc
by President Roosevelt and show
their gratitude to him for what h'
has done for them. This reads Il
me like one of those prepared state
ments that were wont to be drafted
on the California steamers as the,
drew near port, lauding the captain
OF the ship for ''his able seamanshi,
and uniformly courteous bearing
etc. - though two facts were ap
parent. One that the captain wa
employed to handle the ship an
bring it safely to port, the othe
was, no one who signed the certifi
cate knew what liable seamanship
meant.

TO PROVIDE AGAINST ACCI-
DENTS.

By another fiction of the creed
the II apostles have equal power
With the president. This is to pro-
vide against accidents; like the
death or insanity of the Lords duly
commissioned agent. This gives an
especial sanctity TO the apostles in
the eyes of the Mormon people.
So when Apostle Smoot announced
himself a candidate for senator we
saw elders, presidents, bishops and
apostles all tumbling over each other
at primaries and conventions to be
sure TO nominate men for the legis-
lature who would vote for Smoot for
senator.
Of course, ne was elected. How
he uses his power can be judged by
a single circumstance He came to
this city two years ago and picked
out who should be nominated for the
state and county officers. Some
had never been dreamed of for
such offices, being utterly incon-
petent, but they were every one
elected. A contest was inauguratcc
to GUST Smoot from the seat. 1t ha:
, been going on three years. The
committee has filed a majority anC
