thing radically wrong which must be
hidden under the practiced secrecy
AS to the disloyalty OF which Mr..
Lundstrom spoke, there is ample evil
dence. The vehement, mouthy rebellion
Of the leaders of the Mormon church,
from the very beginning, is so well
known in this day that to deny it is
to merely misstate the facts. The Trib-
une has many times quoted the pro-
phets, taking their utterances as re.
ported in the official publications of
the Mormon church. And The Tribune
is ready to produce these publications,
containing the seditious rantings of the
ecclcsiasts, to substantiate its declara-
tion that there never was in the United
States a more villainously traitorous
crowd than that which composes the
hierarchy Of the Mormon church.
The temple oath is part of this
disloyalty. That is true, as demon
strated in the fact that any oath of
secrecy whatever is necessary TO cover
up the rottenness with which temple
ceremonies are besmeared. 1t would be
n sin of the most grievous character
TO thus speak of any really religious
or sacred ceremony; but in these temple
ministrations people of the world do
not recognize any sacredness. They
view the whole affair as direct in
suit to the Deity; as damnable ma
chination against decency and civiliza-
tiou. They know that the only good
features about these temple ceremonies
which have been injected TO give them
semblance Of rcspcctability and
worth, have been thicved by the
prophets from organizations which are
too good to be mentioned in the same
country.

MR.. LUNDsTRoM's ADDRESS.

Assertions which were made at the
American club s meeting on Tuesday
night ought to be interesting, in that
they came from a former member of
the Mormon church who was at one
time a bishop s counselor in that oTga-
nization. Mr.. Lundstrom devoted con-
siderable attention to the disloyal oath
of revenge against this Nation which is
administered to persons who take So
called endowments in the Mormon tenn
pie.
1t would be serious matter to at
tribute to any sacreds ordinance or pro-
ceeding the oodtbirstincss which is
reported Of these temple ceremonies;
but there are some very significant
facts available which point to the truth
of many of the stories which are ex
tant concerning the alleged revengeful
oath. The first of these exists in the
wonderment which a purely religious
mind would entertain that there should
be necessity for a secret oath of what
ever description in sacred religious
ceremony. That there is something rad
ically wrong in the proceeding is evi-
dent from the fact that the strictest
secrecy is enjoined upon participants.
Even in the matter of marriage, as
performed in tho temples of the Lord,
Gas they are sacrilegiously called) the
man and wife are forever bound TO 81

ignorant Of these proceedings; but he
may yet be permitted to entertain some
opinions with reference to this dark
secrecy with which temple ceremonies
are surrounded
Let case of new polygamy trans
pire, and let the inquirer address him
self to any Mormon neighbor of the
offender on that subject. Tf the inyes-
tigator be non. member Of the church
he Will encounter among these religious
ly'fraternal neighbors the utmost ignor-
ance and oblivious surprise. If he be
Mormon (in good standing) he will
hear some such expression as eyes,

amy; and Brother What-Y ou May Call
Him is said to he her husband But
/ believe that he is on a mission in
Idaho, or up in Alberta. or down in
Mexico, somewhere, We don t gossip
about it, though, because we know that
we must keep such cases quiet. The
authorities are having so much trouble
already with the Gentiles about the
brethren going into polygamy that we
feel like hushing these things up as
much as possible.
That some such object as this must
have originated the temple oath there
can be no doubt; for, as glib as was
the prophet himself in Washington con-
cerning many things which character
ize the life of the church and its mem
bers, he absolutely refused TO divulee
the nature of the temple onth. Apostle
Smoot was equally reticens. Both of
these men knew that if they consented
TO tell what was sworn TO in the temple
ceremonies. IL would be all up with
many OF the pious saints who are now
walking the streets as free citizens. II
is therefore apparent that there is some.
