SAYS CHURCH BE-
LIEVES IN POL YGAMY
Elder Brigham ii. Roberts Makes
Sensational Reply to Min 8.
ister'S Letter.

SALT LAKE CITY, June "a
sensational feature of the contro-
versy between the members of the
evangelical churches and the Nor
mon priesthood was the address de-
livered at the tabernacle today by
Elder Brigham H. Roberts, once ex-
cluded from congress because of his
polygamous practices. He spoke in
reply to an open letter published by
the Ministerial association. Elder
Roberts frankly declared that the
church had surrendered not one iota
of it's belief in the principle of polyg-
amy, but countenanced no polyga-
nous marriages while they were for
hidden by law.
OF himself he said:
81 stand exactly where 1 did ten
years ago, namely, that though the
church proclaimed against the con-
tinuation ofsthis relationship; though
the state proclaimed against it,
neither the church nor the state may
absolve the moral obligations | am
under, or release me from that moral
duty"
Mr.. Roberts characterized the min
listers as belonging to a third sex,
neither male nor female, and said
they were better qualified for pink
teas than craftsmanship. All of the
! high officials of the church, includ-
, ing President Joseph Smith, were
present and tacitly Endorsed the adj
dress of Mr.. Roberts as an utterance
of the church body.
