UNDERSTAND THE OATH.

The Detroit Free Press is not salts
fed with the Senate S dalliance on the
Smoot question. That paper cites the
decisive opinion by United States Judge
Lands at Chicago, concerning the Dow
10 oath and places the Dowie case and
the Dowie obligation in the same class
with the Mormon church and its HE
rarchical covenant. The Free Press says
that the delay in the Senate is due to
the time-serving policies and selfish
fears OF that body. 1t would be diff
ferent if the matter were in court; for
what would happen there to Mr.. Smoot
if he were arraigned-tbat a disloyal
oath, obligation or covenant is deter
mined to be a sufficient disqualification.
All through this country comparisons
are being made between the Dowie oath
and the covenant administered to and
by the Mormon church hierarchy So
far, nearly all the newspapers which
quote the two obligations speak of them
as being intrinsically the same. Dowie s
is a tri1e bolder in language, but the
Mormon covenant. is much the more eff
fective In practice. There have been
no public criticisms, so far as The Trib-
une knows, of the, decision made by
Judge Landis; and the universally of
sentiment in favor of the Judge s opin-
ion demonstrates that when once the
hierarchical covenant Of the Mormon
church shall be understood, no man Who
is under it's binding force will be ac-
cepted as law-msker for the free men
of this country

The foregoing is a feeble attempt Of

Why Object to Test Oath :?

the Mormon question as the paramount
issue. Senator Dubois and his support

FALLEN FROM GRACE.

The Deseret News has fallen from
grace again. Ten days ago or there
abouts it announced to the world that
it had reformed-not in those exact
words, but it specifically intimated that
it had ceased to contradict and would
no longer take issue with the stories
told by opponents Of the. Church of
Jesus Christ Of Latter-day Saints The
News was proposing to occupy the ex-
alted ground of truth. tt intended to
set an example of dignity and forbesr-
ance and patience and seemliness and
long suffering and silence under torture
and all the rest of the qualities that 90
to make up perfection. But it has
backslid. The narration Of the Susan
Henry experience at Boston was too
much for the News. And so it is out
in a column or more of the defense that
it was never going to utter again and
OF the explanation that never again
was it intending to explain and of the
contradictions that it was never going to
indulge in; and all its pledges of long
suffering and sanctifed silence are
thrown to the winds.
The Tribune rejoiced in the refor-
nation which the News promised. 1t
was clear to all well-informed people
that the truth of this situation was be-
ing producedAb by The Tribune and that
the News had no need to enter the con-
troversy-so far as genuine enlighten-
ment was concerned; and so far as its
falsehoods were concerned, they were so
easily exploded that the News had
become ridiculous. 1t will be with pro-

sPRY's CHURCH BANNER.

John Alves, old Union soldier, has
been removed from his place as bailiff
by United States Marshal William Spry.
| What did the old soldiers cxnect7 Do
they imagine that William Spry, United
States Marshal for Utah, has any espcc-
j ial feeling Of tenderness for them3
The assumption that Mr.. Spry would
keep his own promise OF observe the
executive order regarding the old SOL
diers In public Office (if ordered to do
otherwise by his ecclesiastical chiefs),
was too violent in the beginning. From
the moment his name was sent to the
Senate Of the United States by Prcsl-
dent Theodore Roosevelt it has been
apparent to all Utah people that the
United States Marshalship was to be
held as minor bureau Of the Mormon
church. Under Mr.. Spry it does not
rise even to the dignity of depart
mont 1t is merely n second or third
ratio appanage to be directed by tho
chiefs when anything in its affairs arc
important enough to justify their con"
sideration. 1t does not afford many
profits, but it is n convenience.
An old soldier was bailifr under Mar
shal B. B. Haywood. That old soldier
is no longer bailiff. Marshal Spry gave
the place to one who would be amenable
to the wishes of the church chiefs.
Did the old soldiers think that Spry
would retain in such a position man
whose presence was so distressingf
Think Of what an insult that old Grand
Army uniform must be-to Spry and to
the hierarchs who control Spryl Think
how annoying it would be to the Mar
shall if he received batch of subpoenas
from Washington and wanted con-
fidential messenger to rush to church
headquarters with secret information,
to find an old soldier pointing sig
nifcantly to the button in his coat
lapel and shaking his head at the
United States Marshall
Spry does not want any Of his coun-
try's "spies for so an old soldier
would be called-in the way, when he
desires to have the hierarchical purpose
fulfilled, and 80 the old soldier must go.
To this degradation has the United
States Marshal's Office been brought in
Utah that an old soldier is not wanted
on the premises, lest he shall see some
thing which would make his old soldier
blood boil in his veins.
Never mind, John Alves, veteran and
patriot, your kind were fighting Tor the
integrity Of this Nation when men Of
the cult to which spry belongs were
crying: fTo> hell with the United
Statesl" You belong to that heroic
soldiery who marched through swamps,
endured prisons, starved and fought
and fought and starved that the Ma
tion might be-while men of the Spry
cult were on their knees praying that
the Union might be destroyed. But
you had to go, John Alves. You are
only an old battered soldier of the Re-
public. Take the flag with you, John
Alves. 1t does not belong now in the
United States Marshal's office in Utah.
Leave William Spry in his feeting
glory, waving as the banner of his
love the traitorous flag Of Joseph +.
Smith g kingdom Of God on earth.
