President Young was talking concern
ing the endowment house and the cere
monies enacted therein. There is
something suggestive of uncleanness in
his remarks. What was it that the men
should keep secret from their wives;
and what that wives should hide from
their husbands
1t is fact in history that the old
endowment house became such a hell
hole of iniquity and immortality that
eventually not even the polygamous
leaders Of the church could longer en-
dure the evil of it, President Woodruff
ordered the old building, which stood
in the northwest corner of the temple
block. RACED to the ground, even before
the Salt Lake temple was ready TO re-
ccivc those who would submit to the
washings and anointings, the sealiugs
and the secret oaths which the church
mummerics provide.
The evils which prompted the demol:
ton Of that old endowment house wore
many and extremely repnlsive. Ne
quircments in the plural marriage eeic-
mony were such that the man and the
woman held each other in dread be-
eaese of the secrets which they. he'll

THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE FRIDAY MORNING

what is done Nay. more. we may say
with perfect truth that il it were not
for this political dominance of the
church leaders in Utah over tho civil
and political affairs OF the people there
would be no such thing as Apostle
Smoot being a member of the United
States Senate. Because it WAS solely by
reason of the church dominance in poll
tics that Smoot was sent TO the Senate
in the first place. And if he is contin-
ucd in the Senate 1T Will be through
tho same disloyal and defiant church
tactics in its dominance over the politi-
cal consciences and the votes Of the
members Of tho Mormon church. Smoot
is not only a consenting member to all
of the church aggressions. civil and
political, to all of the lawlossncss,
pledge breaking. and robberies commit
ted by the leaders Of the Mormon
church, but he is an active participant
IN the affairs Of that governing body,
agreeing 10 everything.
Senator Dolliver, in sur~orting
Smoot. claimed that the Mormon church
leaders are abandoning polygamy, and
that il would be an act of injustice TO
turn from the Senate a man in r con-
spicuous position In that church who
had been an opponent of polvgamy, and
that it, was not the right way to reach
the evils Of polygamy to punish Smoot
for what had been done. Inasmmch,
however, as the Mormon church is
plainly reviving polygamy among a
"ehosen seed;'' inasmuch az Smoot
has never opposed polygamy; and mas
much as the triumph of Smoot in the
Senate has given the Mormon church
leaders renewed lease OF life for their
lawlessness, crimes. and treason, 1t is
impossible to sec the force of Senator
Dolliver s remarks. His course towards
Smoot teuded to retain Smoot in the
Senate; and that retention directly and
positively encouraged poly2amy. law
lessness, and defiance of tho civil au-
thorIty In Utah. And inasmucb as this
is plainly and noticeably the fact, Sen
ator Dolliver must bear his share OF tho
odium which attaches to tho recrudes-
cence of polygamy, the added boldness
and law-defying among the Mormon
leaders, and in their stricter require
ments of the members of their church
to obedience TO the church leaders
rather than obedience to and a spirit
of patriotism IN support of their coun-
try and State.
Senator Dolliver, as a candidate for
reelection to the Senate from Iowa, did
rot dare go before the legislature of
that State as a supporter Of polyg-
amists, lawlessness, and hicrarchic
and defiance of civil author
lty. But after his election he changed
front and, having been reelected TO tho
Senate by people who do not In the
least stand for polygamy or treason. he
ranged himself alongside of the polyc.
amous hierarchy and strengthened their
hands in lawlessness and civic rebellion,

THE SPRY "REsIGNATIoN. ,

TIE so.called resignation of Mr. Spry
frm his Federal position of United
Staes Marshal appears TO bo fraud
and sham. The President was very
1leFe with some Federal office holders
IN he East, demanding peremptorily
thg designations from their Federal
positions or their withdrawal rs candi-
dais on local tickets. Lately, how
eve, there appears to have been re-
laxtiou in the civil service rules and
csposition to evade the law This
dispsition undoubtedly was fostered
Yer largely by the interference OF
Smot aud other Senators in behalf of
the favorites in Federal positions
VIII had been nominated for local of
fic'
|. seems that Marshal Spry has for
walled his resignation to the Depart
met Of Justice, and tho Department
of Justice has handed il over TO the
Preident, The report is that it will
proably be accepted if Spry IS elected
Gogrnor of Utah, and if he is not, the
resInatiou will be returned to him and
he gill continue to hold the office.
Nedless to say, this is simply au-
othr instance of tho failure to enforce
in itah the laws aud regulations com.
moiy enforced elsewhere in the United
Staes. The Mormon chiefs are above
theaw and are not amenable 10 the de.
parment regulations that are enforced
els@here. This has been conspicuous
anddisgusting fact for -duite n number
Of vars now in Utah, aud tho effect or
it i disgusting people moro and moro
wit the present Federal regime. Here
we have a gang OF bolters, pinheaded
upsarts backed by the power of tine
hierarchy of the Mormon church, who
haN usurped by the favor of that
hierarchy control of the Republican
parry and are perverting il from its
mission of loyalty, law, and order, to
traiorous priesthood. And there is no
power in Washington that is disposed
TO Interfere, but rather TO shield and
proect the law breakers and conspire
will them for the breaking of law and

ITS BASE ASSUMPTIONS.

The Deseret News last night returned
to IFS proposition that the ministers who
have done distinguished and patriotic
service for their country are to be
praised therefor, to which all agree.
But in noticing The Tribune's answer
TO its former confession on this point,
1t goes vast way in assuming things
and in begging the question.
We stated that what might be plead
ed in behalf of ministers in their heart.
felt devotion to their country could not
be pleaded in behalf of selfish law
breakers, traitors to their country, men
determined 10 live lives in defiance of
the laws of God and man. This is i'm.
pudently assumed By the News to mean
that we conccde the right of American
citizens who hold ecclesiastical positions
to interfere in politics, provided they
live blameless lives. this in order to
plead for certain "prophets, seers, and
revelators' But there is not the least
analogy between the position of the
ministers referred TO and the position
of the bierarchs of the Mormon church.
None of those ministers professed to
be the direct mouthpiece of God, and
TO speak by inspiration and from God
for their people in temporal and spirit
ual things, Not one of them claimed
the right TO rule their congregation
temporarily. They only claimed the
right to speak as citizens. and as minis
ters, persuading their hearers, not by
way of "counsel' which was, in fact,
claimed to be a divine command That
is, whereas those ministers used the
wiles of the fishermen to convince their
hearers, the hierarchy flourishes the
rod and shouts to the fish, bite, or be
damned.
The News undertook TO insinuate
that we admit the right of ministers TO
hold public office, provided those min
listers are moral,g There is no question
of right here This would be ques-
tion of propriety, of public sentiment
The American people have always been
opposed 10 the elevation of high church
dienitaries to civic position. They are
still opposed TO it, and the Independent
cords with that sentiment throughout
the country. The question whether a
minister standing solely on his own
merits and calling as minister. is at
liberty TO do certain things has no bear
ing on the question of the intrusion Of
hierarchy into all the affairs of
men S lives and debating TO them as
direct from God, both temporarily and
spiritually, as Joseph F. Smith claims
the right by his position 10 do Nor
does the question that bal and sinful
men are sametimes elected 20 office
have the least bearing on the question,
OF course su,,h mcn should not be elec,-
ed ~ office, 7yhethor they are ministers
or not.
Bue ibe diffiAcul,y IN Utah is that tho
worst mcu. = men who under their
