has been that he lis an advocate OK
and this conclusion has
been reached by reasoning FROM
the fact that he is a Mormon and
an elder in the church. The charge
that he was guilty of pract'ciiSf
polygamy has never been SUSTAINED
and his ability and morals have
never been attacked. IN fact, Al
has been shown that he is % very
competent man when measured ~
the measuring stick Of statesmahs
ship. It has been shown that hc
was the possesscr. of but one WIZ
and that he took great delighs
in lis home life, bestowing all :sszf
his affection upon his wife and
children. One of the first pm
ciples of tbs government is reli4 +
Gus freedom and certainly no one
would consider barring q man fpSn
the rights which he holds as a csfs-
zen because of his religious belief
so long as that religion conforms
with divine laws. n
But after all has been said pIhn
favor of Smoot, the fact that he is
q Mormon and that prior to the
edict which prohibited polygam0us
marriages, polygamy was practlced
almost universally among the Ind
herents to that faith. People ,,in
general are Of the opinion, send
they assert that they have rfdbf
with which TO back up their opinion,
that the practice of plural mar
rlagcs has not been done away with
among the Mormcns. The oplaion
Is prevalent that the MORMON
church secretly sanctions tn, pfae-
tee while openly it loudly di{ap-
proves. This Il Cs which haso led
to the stubborn oppositionio to
SnlDot. The Christian people IN
general and christian women have
opposed him strongly because they
have felt, and yet feel, that Smoot
as an elder in the Mormon ch@rch,
has been, endcavoling to carry
water on both shoulders, secretly
sanctiouing polygamy and openly
opposing it. 'df
If Reed Snoot spoke the tEuth
when he proclaied cn the floer Of
the senate that lie was opposed to
plural marriages, aud that as an
United States Senator he Would
consider the welfare of the whole
people and not t,lat of any asect,
or of any aocality, if he is broad
minded enough to have his sMor-
monism IN Ctah and not endeavor
to thrust his beliefs upon the, peo-
pie Of the nation, then there. was
no reason for his expulsion from
the senate, but If his opposition
to polygamy is only openly, whilo
secretly he winks at and encourages
it, then he should have been gust
ed from the scratI.
