MORNING NOVEMBER 2 1906

Of the world; that God in His provi-
dence would open the way for them 10
enter into its holiness; and that by this
means they were TO become priestesscs
and queens unto their husbands. who
would become gods in the eternity.
The Deseret News knows that such
has been the precept and that as fast
as girls could be inoculated with the
poison of this idea men have been found
who were already prepared by the ex-
ample and teaching of tho hierarchs TO
take these girls into their families as
plural wives. The writer on the Deseret
News knows that several apostles for
years have been engaged in teaching
quietly to select young men and young
women Of the church this doctrine, and
that when the victims were nodded to
the right mood these apostles have per
formed ceremonies of plural marriage
under VOW of secrecy. The Deseret
News knows that the Canadian and
Mexican colonies Of the church are
filled with new polygamous families.
And these things are known to the Nor
mons in general. When they deny they
simply say; "We do not know it of our
own knowledge But the majority Of
them do not know. from their own per-
soual seeing, that there is Canadian
or Mexican colony of the church.
They are as we'll aware of the new po-
lygamous relations existing in these col
onies as they are aware of the existence
of the colonies themselves.
When the Deseret News attempts TO
controvert the idea that plural marriage
has been renewed as teaching and as
n practice of the church, it should first
Of all start right, 1t sbould explain
why the Doctrine and Covenants, in its
latest edition, contains the alleged rev.
clation which makes the practice of po-
lygamy mandatory upon the Mormon
people, and why the manifesto, which
was supposed to repeal that command,
is not issued in any authoritative book
Of the Mormon faith. Until 1T can eH-
plain away these facts its denials arc
useless. And even if it could eradicate
that proof of polygamous teaching, 1T
would still have TO meet the ineradl-
cable fact that the men who have gone
into the practice of new polygamy have
been sustained in high places of trust
and authority within the church. and
that not one of them has been punished
in any manner by any tribunal of the
church.

GOOD DOCTRINE SPREADING.

When Joseph T, Smith, president of
the Mormon church, was compelled to
face the court on criminal charge, it
was distinct gain for decency and
civic righteousness.
When he found it desirable TO admit
his ofTense, hopeless of escaping convic.
ton. that lesson of decency and public
righteousness was tremendously
strengthened.
When it is seen that not even the dis
honored church organs, big and little,
have the hardihood to come To Smith IS
defense, or to condemn his accuscr, it
is a sign that reform in the direction
of at least an elementary or rudiment-
ary tendency toward the acknowledge
ment of the supremacy of law has taken
form
1t is true that the court did not rise
TO the measure of the occasion. and
failed TO vindicate the law as appropri-
ately as II should have done IL is true
that to fine Smith was in fact no pun
ishment of him at all, for he pays the
$500 fine with money taken from other
people s pockets; he makes the innocent
and deluded members of his church set
tie She bill for his transgression.
But when all is said and done by
way of criticism and objection to an
over-lenicnt court; and while the
trifing with justice is apparent when
the accused is found to have tsmpered
with judges by ascertaining beforehand
what sentence they meant TO impose
upon him, the fact remains that it is
distinct gain TO arraign this defiant
law-breaker before the court and com
pei him to admit his transgressiou and
take sentence for 1t.
That this is certain to awaken whole
some comment is sure; the following
editorial from the Park City Record
is an example of that truth The Rec
ord has not much INDUCED in criticism

decency; consequently, its opinion here

were to attempt to cross a desert and
stop midway, Nothing would have
been accomplished; and, as fnaity,
he must either retrcat whence he came
or &c forward to the destination. The
misnamed Republican party of Utah is
the starting point. The American
party of Utah is the destination. Unit
ed Republicans can find no beneficial
result by standing halfway between
these two; they must either 90 back
to the Smootridden organization or
they must 60 forward and take part
with Americanism in fighting n real
battle for the correction of existing
wrong, The organization just effected
by these young Republicans is prac
tical admission that the American party

Then why not make one united army ,

Either there is no cause Of quarrel
by the United Republicans or the cause
of quarrel has been logically and truth

Either there is no battle TO fight in
Utah on this question OF the American
party is waging that battle, Either
the church should dominate the State or
Americanism should dominate. Sooner
or later the United Republicans will be
compelled to make choice-either to
retreat ANONYMOUSLY and come once
more under the yoke, or advance glo-
rlouslv and be enfranchised

enough when the church crowd can not
get them. And there is still another
reason why the journal of the hierarchs
should not exhibit any panied feelings
or offer any remonstrnnces or critl-
cism. A vote from the tenderloin is
just as honest and high.minded vote
as any one which will be cast by large
group of the elite of the church. Six
teen years ago all the Mormon polyg-
amists were under Acknowledgement.
They could neither hold office nor vote
nor perform jury service. Upon their
solemn promise to observe the law, the
President of the United States granted
amnesty TO them and they were re-
stored to the privileges of citizenship
upon condition that they would fulfill
their covenant. Every one OF these
who has broken his pledge TO the Pres
ident OF the United States is, when he
votes, casting a ballot which he OBJ
tanned under false pretenses. His vote
can not be otherwise than dishonest. He
is a knave and a traitor when he at
tempts TO exercise the franchise which
he secured by falsehood. The law may
permit him to vote; but in morals he
is deprived by his own act of the right
to cast ballot in any election in this
country.
The polygamons organ may sneer at ana
may deride the vote of the tenderloin
now that 1t can no longer utilize such
vote for church purposes; but there is
no rounder of the underworld, possess
ing the legal qualifications, who has
not better right to vote than Joseph f.
traitors who escaped the penitentiary
by means of lie told to the President
of the United States.

AS TO REPRESENTATION.

We now have the idea Of the Smootito
mouthpieco here as TO what consti-
tutes representation for the American
party on the Board Of Education of this
city. 1t is one member in a body of
fifteen.
That is TO say, the American party,
having one member of that board of
fifteen, ought not to complain of non
representation, although it is the ma
in fifteen is thus the Smoot idea Of
the proper representation for the
leading party in the school board.
But really that sort Of generous con
ccssion leaves something to be desired
If the majority party is entitled to but
one member in fifteen members, by
what right do the minority parties get
representation at all7 If that is repre-
sentation, then what would be denial
of representation
Apostle Smoot, the church general
political dictator, undertakes 10 govern
this city from Provo. He was here
bossing the municipal election of 1905
Having failed to carry the election
and seeing that the voters here stub
bornly refuse to do his will, he now
threatens them with an unconstitutional
commission TO take away from them
certain of their municipal rights. and
lodge these in the hands of an arbitrary
power which he can always control
That, is, he proposes to ride over
the political rights of the people here
the polls. No more monstrous
tyranny has been proposed by any one
in our time than that which is here
proposed by Apostle Smoot
The anxious care which the church
leaders have exercised heretofore in
selecting members of the Board Of
Education for this city is shown in the
frmness with which those members
cling to the church leading strings
In every other body of officials or
public workers, there have been large
proportions OF adhereuts TO American
principles. and open affiliations with
that party, Councilmen have Joined in
sufficient numbers TO give that party
control. Republican and Democratic
committees nave been depleted in the
same way. But nothing Of the kind
has occurred in the school board The
church clutch is as firm there as
ever. The Americans elected one
member two years ago, Mr.. Obernd orfer.
and one, Judge Henderson. comes out
for the Americans. But the "solid
eight " seem fixed in their allegiance 10
the church interests, and willing to
permit and perpetuate the ecclesiastical
rule.
The Americans propose TO break up
that church rule, They are determined
that the free public schools shall not
be run any longer in the interests Of
the dominant sect. They have nomi-
mated candidates who are in every way
ct representa- tives of the American idea,
and supremely fl, by their sentiments
and their ability and special acquire
ments, to properly manage the educa-
| tional work Of this city. And they
propose to elect these men, and so give
the schools new birth in progress, in
loyalty, and in devotion to the highest
educational ideals.

THE FRENCH PLAY
THIS EVENING

The Assembly Hall of Chas. r.
Bishop Hall, will be thrown open to
the friends of Punahou and to all who
wish to come this evening, Saturday,
Nay 10, at CLOCK, when Gun Quar-
tier Tranquille, - a French play of three
acts, will be given by the students of
Oahu College. AS cordial invitation
is extended to all, no admission will be
charged.
The play is staged under the direc-
ton of Miss Hasforth. 1t is a clever
comedy in which Mademoiselle de Mont
Parnasse, who has literary aspirations,
seeks peace and quiet in a boarding
house. The other members of the
household are both numerous and noisy.
The mademoiselle gets much excited
over the various disturbances, in the
way of singing lessons, dancing lessons
and visitations of various sorts, which
seriously interfere with the composition
of her poetry. The climax comes in the
third act when the irate mademoiselle
tries to keep things quiet by scheme
of her own.
A digest of the plot will be read in
English at the beginning of the play,
Through this and the action, which is
at all times lively, the audience will be
able easily to appreciate the situations.

PROBLEM IN
WAIMANAlO
The County Act Puts 1t
in the Fourth
District.

Local politicians are considerably
exercised because the County Act
seems to have made a muddle of Wal
nanaio district. There are only TWEEN
fy-seven voters there, to be sure, but
fwenty-seven counts in a close cleo
ton, and there may arise contingencies
in which the. twenty-seven of Wanna
nalo will not count.
1t comes about in this wise: Under
the provisions of the Organic Act,
waimanalo is in the Fourth District,
the boundary whereof runs right away
across the island of Oahu from Maka-
pun Point to the foot of Nuuanu street
Therefore. the votes of Waimanalo
must be cast for the members of the
Territorial House of Representatives,
six of them, accorded to the Fourth
District, and in matters territorial
must go precisely as the votes of Ho-
nolulu do.
The wise men who drew the County
Act however, were not satisfied with
this status of the twenty-seven of Wa
imanalo, and they put the windward
district in the same district with koo-
lauloa and Koolaupoko the Fifth, so
for six members of the Territorial
House of Representatives, they only
vote for the same number of Super
visors that the voters Of the koolaus
do. In other words, while the twenty
seven of Waimanalo are very impor-
tant in a Territorial election, they do
not cut any more ice than the other
outside districts in the county of Oahu.
This will mean, of course, that there
must be two sets of ballots cast in
Waimanalo, but it will mean likewise
that there must be a separate election
proclamation for the twenty-Seven-
or, rather. that the twenty-seven must
be separated from the balance in the
regular election proclamation. The
Secretary cannot recognize the County
Act change, of course. In other words, |
Waimanalo has suddenly assumed an
Importance as a political subdivision |
altogether out of proportion to its i'm
portance otherwise. Indeed. it presents
a problem that the politicians arei
worrying over a good deal. Just what
they are going to do about it, however,
is not yet clear.
