The excessive use OF alcohol and made

practical one, because the recruiting

menace Of the drink eyIl to any nation.
The consumption OF liquors IN the

Increase since the year 1885 In 1899
the total consumption was l,lli292, 20i

and the year 1895 gave stlll further

from that year the increase has been
swift. and the total consumption Of

PRINCIPLES INVOLVED.

MouthpIeoes Of the anti" Mormon"
crusade In this city have, for some time,
openly clamored for the exclusion OF all
Church members from the Board OF
I.ducatlon. Their un-American idea is
that one class OF citizens should be eS-
.cuded from every privilege OF self
government except paying taxes. while
another class should dictate In every
Thing pertaining To tho administration
uf the government. And they propose
no draw the line OF distinction on The
Somain OF religion. This IL not surpris-
3ng to anyone who has followed the
trend OF the present crusade and no.
hiced that It Is In the direction of tho
disfranchisemen Of everyone who dares
no believe IN the divine mission Of
The Prophet Joseph. But, Is II not rath-
er late In the day, to endeavor to In
troduce into this free country the sem
tlments and practices Of the autocrats
OF Russia?
Some non-"Mormons' OF broad. Am
erican views and excellent character
have been invegled into tho party OF
anti" Mormonism," or rather antl-Am-
cricanism. by the false pretense that Its
aim was the correction OF alleged
abuses which the party leaders them
selves conjurod up and magnlfed
thousand-fod, Had they realized that
they were giving their aid to the fur
tlserance of diaboIicnl conspiracy
against fundamental principles of the
goyernment--liberty to worship accord
ing 10 the dictates OF conscience they
would never have become q party TO

so many express their disapproval OF
The methods and tactics Of the leaders
of that conspiracy. They are sick and

poured out daily for the delectaton OF

Respectable citizens should take notice
Of the declared purposes OF the schem-
ers. which are nothing less than the
ultimate disfranchisement of a large
class OF citizens whose only fault is
mat they have refused to bow down
before tho god OF Mammon, at the
behest of plutocrat. 1t Is not too late
Tor them to withdraw from such COM
pany. and stand UP for the right. They |
should remember that taxation without
representation. as proposed by the ira
ducers OF the Lotter-day Saints, is a
violation of the laws of this country,
and an outrage upon the rights OF every /
human being. II we urge all good |
voters 10 lay aside animositles and re-
I'gious prejudices. In order that they
may unite on the choice of good men
10 MI the vacancies IN the Board OF
Education, without regard to creed or
Political Affiliations, we do so because
We regard the proposition OF some anti
'Mormons' ms an outrage upon the
American principles of government.
No advantage 10 the Church is sought
IN this matter. But the anti" Mormon"
