RELATIONS BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE.

Editor Deserct News:--I may mis-
apprehend the purpose and intent of
your editorial of recent date, entitled
ga False Doctrinc;;'' and therefore suS-
gest to you the following considera-
tons;
YOU say very correctly, the doctrine
that 1t is contrary to the spirit of the
American government for a man vino
holes an ecclesiastical office to serve
the state in responsible official posi-
Etion cannot be defended successful
ly.'' and that to deny men holding &C.
clesiastical Office the right to hold poli
teal office would be unconstitutional
and ln-American. In all of this 7
fully agree and say that the opposite
view would work Il fragrant, monstrous
wrong that would be calculated to
destroy the very foundation of our
liberty and the equality of all men be-
fore the law
AS there is no political party or sane
person in our land Of whom | have.
heard who asserts or maintains the
clutle that you intend to discuss the
matter contained in the resolution in
troduccd in the Democratic convention
at Logan which says:
while we recognize the right of any
citizen to aspire to political office,
we&affirm unequivocaliy that it Is con-
trary to the spirit and genius of the
American government for a man to
hold at the same time, one of the
highest and most authoritative offices
in a church and also one OF the most
responsible Offices within the gift of a
commonwealth"

1t may be rash to conclude that this
resolution suggested your editorial be-
cause there Is no resenblna se between
the two propositions but some of orr
Republican friends, II ! understand
them correctly, al least pretend to
think that your deductions from your
premises although so Theoretically
contrary 10 that stated in the reso-
luton, lead to the same conclusion.
You may have no such thought as
those suggested but your article will
be used in my opinion by Republicans,
to convey that idea as no other appar-
cnt provocation exists for such discus
sion In leading editorial in your
most valuable paper.
This View is greatly emphasized by
the fact that there has been lively
and actual discussion going on
throughout the State for over six years
as 10 the propriety of one of the
twelve apostles retaining that Office
and at the same time being d, United
publican party. You may conclude, as
tits commonly asserted by very many
that If there was any such irnpropri-
ETY. the consent of the quorum of the
twelve and the presidency of the
Church TO occupy both positions at
the same time would not have been
given.
! have never thought there was any
question about the right or constitu4
tional guarantee for it; that always
appeared plain but very many life
long readers of your paper have had
very great doubt about the propriety
or consistency of. such a condition.

{ There is now in this country a man

to the Gilbert Islands, he was the only

mail was stolen by the natives, who
thought it was food of a new. strange

when lie was so years old, he studied

and whose method had much OF the
lyric quality. Bliss was a powerful
basso, but he was a master of eS-
preston, and could fill a hall or fntone
a lullaby with equal effect. The small
organ was the instrument always In
rariahly used by the Evangelical nusi-
clan, and as a rule he played it HIM
self. although Bliss delighted in a skill

his audience and breathing his whole

The party leaders denounced Com

to the citizens for help to get control
of the public funds. They promised

In the form Of an influx OF the un-
desirable element to such an extent
that 1t flowed over from the one street
and infested the entire business center
OF the City. That is merely an illus
tration of the value of the denuncla-
tons of those party leaders.
They denounce the red light business
in order to obtain the votes of the
Christian citizens; but those interested
in the business referred to. are not de-
ceived by words. They know; who their
friends are.
The establishment Of red light dis
tricts Is part of a plan laid years ago
for the CELEBRATION. of Utah. On the
