Is understood by the distorters Of the
truth who seek 10 prejudice the pub
lie against Us and our faith. but they
choose 10 take advantage OF some in
cidental remark so as TO peryert the
doctrine.
The statement about the public
schools Of Utah seems TO be a con-
certed story by Presbyterian preach-
ers, a. II Is the same as that promul-
gated by a noted falsiAer at the late
Presbyterian convention IN this city.
II Is utterly untrue. for the school
system OF this State and Of the Terri
tory preceding It was modelled after
the public school system OF several
States. the best features Of each being
selected, and It had no reference 10
and made no copy from any sectarian
or UNCONVENTIONAL school under the
sun. Nor was Il OF non-"M Mormon"
origin as claimed by some persons,
IL was framed by a member OF the
Legislature from Tooele county who
was a Mormon IN faith. There
were "Mormons' engaged In its
passage, aud II has been amended
from time to time as occasion and
experience required. but its free tut
ton features We're adopted. as we
have stated and they were growth
from the old public school system
Of local option a. to free schools"
which vas In vogue from the earliest
days Of Utah Religious teaching Is
barred from our public schools but
not from Presbyterian or other Sec
tartan Establishments.
The villalny Of Thompson's assertion
about the courts Of Utah and the alb
sence Of Justice to anybody but Nor
mons Is 30 gross as to stamp its au- |
thor with the same brand that blackens |
the broRs Of other slanderers Of the /
same cult. and viii stand TO their /
shame IN the day Of final judgment 1t
Is 80 untrue and malicious as 10 arouse
the indignation OF every man and Nom-
an living in this State. However, while
such falsehoods serve TO inhame the
minds Of many people against the Lat
ter-day Saints al the same time they
provoke inquiry and result IN that in
9estigation by fair-mlnded persons that
results On the spread Of truth and con-
ioquent conversions TO the great lat
