foreign born Mormon women and men
in Utah, the Tribune copies, endors-
es. and adds to the most diabolcal,
sensual, and brutal falsehoods about
these foreign born women and Haunt
them in their faces by long editorials.
1t is good thing for the editor OF the
Tribune that he is in a Mormon COM
munity and that it is Mormon women
he is slandering. If he were in any 9TH
err community, the chances are that he
would some day find himself dang
ling from the end of rope where
fiends who cast reproach on virtuous
innocent women often are found
The following fiendish falsehoods and
endorsing comments were i'll the
Tribune last Sunday:
But Two Symptoms.
"On the importation of young wo-
men from Europe by the Mormon
elders, the Springfield (Massachu-
setts) Republican has this editorial
paragraphs:
THE Mormons seem to be having
little trouble in gaining converts
among certain classes i'll Europe-and
not the poorest classes, either. A
group of 1873 girls arrived i'll Boston
last week from European ports bound
for Salt Lake City. Each had in her
possession from 500 to $500, and
few had several thousands. The mis-
sionaries in charge declared that ev
cry returning steamer now would
bring a party of converts. Mormon
ism is ever busy"
The Tribune endorses it i'll the fol-
lowing editorial utterance.,
There is no question about the
ever busy proposition. And possib-
ly the country will wake up after
while to the actual menace that is
apparent in he reasonable and us
urping dominance of the licentious and
adulterous priesthood, to the whole
country
Here is another in the same paper:
Con the same general proposition
the Seattle Times makes this sum-
mary and comment:
"Mormons Importing Girls.
"The good women of the country
that raised such a tumult over the re-
tention of Reed Smoot in the United
States Senate as the representative of
Mormon Utah, had little cause for
worry compared to the objection
they might now urge against the %
Ell importation of girls by Mormon
missionaries.
News from Boston tells of the ar
rival there of 1873 girl converts to Nor
monism in charge of eighteen be-
whiskered Mormon elders, who have
beguiled the young women into the
belief that they ARE going to the land
of promise, where everything is
bright, where everything is good and
all are happy
"Few of the girls would leave the
homes if they realized that they wert
to become concubines in the harems
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1907-08-17

ducing SANDERS, stating that Reed
Smoot as representative of Nor
mon Utah" is in league with the adul-
ferrous priesthood in bringing women
from foreign countries ito become
concubines in the harems of these
Mormon Turks" in the following:
"The Times seems to think that
this importation of girls is a wholly
separate and distinct proposition from
the retention of Reed Smoot in the
United States Senate as the repre-
sentative of Mormon Utah But both
have their origin and controlling
force in the same source, and are
merely symptoms of the same gen.
eral disease, the ulcer of priestcraft
in the rule of civil affairs. In the
one case, that adulterous priesthood
strengthens itself by the importations
referred to: in the other it reaches
high, and enthrones itself in the Sen
ate of the United States. 1t is not
two separate propositions, no matter
how much to the eye unframed to
note the craft Of the priesthood may
think so; but it is merely two motives
by the same hand
when the people and the press of
the United States finally wake 10 to
the true situation in the hierarchic
strategy, they will be amazed that
they remained blind so long"
The Tribune knew that the above
quotations from the Springfield Re-
publican and the Seattle Times were
lies as black as hades and any paper
that will knowingly copy falsehood
endorse and add to it, that casts slurs
and ISLANDERS upon the virtuous wo-
men of Utah should be waited upon
by the Commercial club, the Real Es-
tate association and the M and M as
association and requested to apoligise
to the outraged women. Has the
Tribune become so arrogant and bonn
bastic that it can unrebuked proclaim
that the Mormon women of Utah
who were born in other chimes came
here to become concubnes for an
adulterous priesthood in Mormon Tur-
kish Harems? Have the men of Utah
become so cravenish and so lacking
in manhood that they will not pro-
tect their mothers, daughters and sis
tiers and all true women from the
scurrilous attacks of the Tribune?
What is the matter with the Com
mercial club, the Real Estate asso-
citation, and The M and M assoca-
ton? Does the entertaining of stran-
gers, the sale of real estate and the
building of factories amount to more
than protecting Utah's women from
the fiendish attacks of the Tribune?
"'ke up gentlemen and rid Utah
of Tor Kearns' scur ilous ulcer tina.

there will be more of them than
when they were raised on the
range exclusively. It is the small
lunches close together that make
the large number in the aggregate.
We have found out that raising a
few sheep on the farm of 100 to
32O acres pays well. No live stock
brings in the quick returns of sheep.
Wool brings a high price, and a
bunch of spring lambs offered on the
market about this time IN the sum
mer always sells well. Then the old
ewes that are to be culled out can be
fed in the late fall and winter and
sold of, so that about three times
during the year the flock of sheep
furnishes ready cash. Star.
