NO RESTRAINT ON LUST.

Grand old men of the past are worth
while knowing, II for no other reason
than that they pointed the way OF the
present. and stand as beacon lights for
the future.
Without aiming TO be at all disrespect-
full toward Heber c, Kimball, who was
undoubtedly a stalwart and, mistaken
man, the Deserct News yet seems to ex.
hibit determination TO saddle upon tho
shoulders Of the dead the sins of the
living. In order that The Tribune may
be definitely understood, it is necessary
to again call attention 10 the Roberts
speech, which was delivered in the
tabernacle on last Sunday for the cdl-
6cation Of the young men and the young
women Of the Mormon church. Like
wise, it may do no harm TO quote other
defiant utteranccs-mercly as m cX-
planation of what the Deserct News
means when 1T refers TO "the way of
the present. and "beacon lights for
the future This is what Mr.. Brig
ham H. Roberts said;
stand exactly where did ten years
ago. namely, that though the church pro-
claimed against the continuance OF this
relationship, though the State proclaimed
against IT. neither tho church nor the
State may absolVe the moral obligations
that | am under, or release me from that
moral duty,
The familiar ring in the Roberts ad
dress can be identified in no better way
than by recalling the ntterance of the
late President Heber c. Kimball, as
follows:
God Almighty helping me, / will fight
until there Is not drop OF blood In my
veins. Good Cod! ! have wives enough
TO whip out the United States.
So that "the way Of the present
and ''beacon lights for the future are
pointed out by more than one seer.

It has always been supposed that
Brigham H. Roberts embraced Mormon
ism in order TO be saved, as he would
say. His acceptance of the principles
which are laid down as means to his
eternal welfare would be taken as evil
dence that whatever his church would
bid him to do would be accomplished in
respectful obedience. But the great
trouble is that the church has ordered
Roberts to set aside his pet method
of immoral living-which does not at all
suit him. He believes in baptism for
the remission of sins; in the laying on
of hands for the reception of the gift
of the Holy Ghost; that in the atone
ment of Christ all mankind may be
saved. He believes in the gift of
tongues. prophecy, revelation, visions,
healing, Interpretation Of tongues, etc.
He has accepted all of these presenta.
tions by the church as parts of the
religion which is TO make for his etcr-
nal salvation. Acceptance Of these did
not involve the Roberts immoral bent,
so he has swallowed them Wholesale
they did not hurt. But the Mormon
church has also directed Mr.. Roberts
(and with an equally binding force as
his own words would indicate) to re-
frain from an immoral life. The word
OF the Lord TO him is that he must alb
stain from offending the law of the land.
for he that keepeth the laws of God
hath no need to break the laws of the
land. One. who was so infinitely
better than Roberts that to think of
his name with the same mind would be
an offense before the Almighty, was in.
