THE IDAHO ADDRESS.

The address issued by Chairman

committee, OF Idaho, Is powerful
statement OF the existing conditions
OF lawlessness and church domina-

aud that this sway Is absolute over

that polygamy Is not only practiced

this time and who will, under the
condemnation OF the law at their

which the address makes In this
connection to the women OF Idaho is
full OF moral vinor and must prove
enormously effective In it's demand
for the purity aud preservation In It's

and OF the right OF every child to

condemn them to private life until

honor the state and It's constitution,
thereby giving some evidence that
they would honor the nation and the
nations laws.
Several Idaho papers have recently
re- printed an editorial from the
Tribune In which IL was demonstrate
ed that the Mormons were making a
plea OF guilty when they claimed
that the constitutional test oath was
an attack upon their religion. The
test oath Is not, on Its face. an inva-
sion Of any mans religious rights
and vet IL Is an assault upon the
faith OF the Mormons- the Mornons
say so: the chief Mormon journals
tic authorities In Idaho and Utah
have cried out that the test oath Is
In contTaveption Of the religion OF
their people that tteir people cannot
subscribe TO It's obligation, and that,
therefore, the test oath provision of
the constitution Of the state Of Ida
no, when put into effect, will dis
franchise all Mormons within that
state. This Is what the Tribune
calls a plea of guilty. The provision
Is general. 1t does not name Nor
mons. 10 simply requires that a
nan shall neither practice nor up
hold polygamy, nor give to any
church the civic and secular allegi-
ance which belongs to the state.
When the Mormons say that these
provisions Invade their religion they
plead guilty 10 the charges OF the
practice 81 polygamy and the teach
Ing OF treason by their church. They
claim In the most emphatic way that
p0lygamy and secular rule by a
church are parts Of their religion.
The case having been made per-
fectly clear against the Mormons
themselves by themselves, now con g
their allies and brazenly bctray their
own vicious completely An the Nor
mon situation. They insist that
President Roosevelt is on trial, not
the Mormon polygamists; that bis
policies are the issue In Idaho. not
the political commands from the Bee
hive House In Salt Lake City to
thousands OF supine Idaho citizens.
These political allies OF the Mormon
chiefs would substitute President
Theodore Roosevelt, In the public
discussion In Idaho, for selt-ccp
demned lot OF polygamists and trait
ors: and they would do this insoleni
and infamous thing to protect thei
political allies and to gain the vote.
