For an Amendment.

During the progress of banquet at Salt Lake CITY
last Saturday evening, given by members of the
American party to ex-senator Fred II. Dubois of
Idaho, a resolution was adopted favorng an amend
ment to the Federal Constitution relating to the
suppression of polygamy.
In the preamble it was stated that twelve wears of
experience under statehood had made it evident that
there intention the part of the leaders of
the Mormon church to abandon polygamous living
That many so-called marriages in polygamy had oc-
Cured and were occurring from time to time by an
thorty of the alleged revelation and in compliance
with the methods of the Mormon church The be-
lief was expressed that only the direct interposton
of the National authority could break up the practice
The banqueters therefore resolved that
1t is the prayer of the loyal people of Utah. without
regard to old party connections affiliations but as
lovers of American institutions and civilization that
amendment to the National Constitution should be
passed which would give to Congress the power to
enact and to the Federal courts jurisdiction to
force, appropriate legislation to deal with the ofenses
OF polygamy and polygamous living to the end that
the prevalence of this form of awlessness be extir-
pated from the Republic, and especially from Utah
and these surrounding states
The resolution fairly expresses the sentiment of
most of the people of the United States outside the
Mormon church-some eighty million against a few
hundred thousand
The resolution directed to a measure that
has been before Congress since the early DAYS of
the current session of that body and has been given
no attention.
The people of Salt Lake City understand the sit
uat1on fully and when they formally declare that
plural marriage is continuously practiced, they take
away the final argument of Jack Mormon newspapers
and spellbnders
