Apostle Hyrum Smith spoke upon the
lives of the leaders OF the cbnrch from
the Prophet Joseph. Smith TO the present
leader OF the church, saying that the lat
ter was not the least Of them.-bmery
County Progress. April 20. 1908
During the delivery of his testimony
IN the Smoot investigation at Wash
ington Joseph F. Smith made show
ing of existing facts that would
prompt any but the apostolic mind to
conclude that there was little good in
the Smith life. and about all that was
evil. To be brief in mention of these
confessions, we Will recite that Smith
openly admitted that he had no respect
for law; that he defed the Almighty;
that he was the father of eleven
illegitimates; that he collected APP
proxmitely two million dollars year
from his followers without making any
return whatever, and without even re-
porting to them what disposition he
makes of the money; that he made
a piteous appeal to the President of the
United States for amnesty, and that
his prayer was generously answered
IudL uC NOhiu AOi iSdANC
his evil life, that he had ruthlessly
broken the solemn pledge which he
thus gave; that he was one Of the
church leaders who made sacred
covenant for the people and staked
his honor for fulfllment of the promise
to forever obey the law; that he
chooses now TO "take his chances
against the statute, thus setting an
example of dastardly defiance before
his people; that he obeys or disobeys
God, just as ne pleases; that while he
claims TO be a prophet he does not
prophesy; that his preteuse TO boiGg a
revelator is false, because be receives
no revelations.
Now, If any man can pick out in the
whole world any real or professed Chris
tian whose. life is filed with so
many evil beliefs, DESIRES determine
tiops, and practices as are coufesseily
contained in the Smith existence. we
would be glad TO hear something about
that individual. And this Joseph F,

raised the salaries on the average less
reminded of this imposition, the board,
in view of the coming election, hastily
gave another raise, which altogether
will make the raise received by the
grade teachers, just a little over half Of
what they ought to have received over
hardihood little while ago to set up
an outcry because teachers were IN
duced by better pay and brighter pros
poets TO leave their positions In the
public schools here for employment
elsewhere! 1t is only wonder that
far more did not leave.
1t is absurd to claim that it would be
Objectionable politics to take the
schools of this city out Of the hands of

erly and put them into tho hands Of
those best able TO manage them. 1t is
the widest nonsense to say that Nor
mon dominance is non-partisanship. and
that American dominance is partisan
ship. Let US have done with silly pre-
tense in this matter, and acknowledge
tho truth, which is that Mormon control
is retrogressive and bliehtipg in the
schools as elsewhere, and that AmeTi-
canism is alert, progressive, stimulating,
in al departments OF the public serv-
ice, as well as in business, and that this
is particularly true OF the schools. And
we rejoice that tho American city COM
mittee with its advisers and auxilia-
ries, have decided to make q just and
patriotic fight for an enlightened and
progressive control of the public schools
of Salt Lake.

TO BETTER THE SCHOOLS.

Keep the schools out Of politics
Is the cry of the church politicians who
now have charge OF them. But why
church political control of the schools
should be considered nonpartisanship,
1T would be hard to explain. The cry
Of nonpartisanship in the schools as
they are at present conducted is sim
ply a cry TO let the class of the CON-
munity that is least fit to conduct the
schools conduct them. The cr- to keep
the schools out of politics is but
blind to hold the schools in the sort
Of politics that is most injurious to
them; the cry to keep politics out of
the schools it but a false claim so that
the politics already rampant in abe
schools may rule in them injuriously
and undisturbed.
The present board OF education IN this
city is q denSely partisan board II
conducts the schools with an eye quite
as much TO the interests OF the Mormon
church and its members as to the prop
er work of the schools. What sort of
-partisan5hip is to be expecto from
Martin, Cummings, Giauque, Newman,
or Thomas? Tho idea is preposterous.
But the influence of these men is pre-
dominant il the schools, the Mormon
members leading with subservient non
Mormons Of Mormon choosing ruling all
things Tho members from the Fifth
ward in this city alone have proper
idea of what should be done and will
ingncss to do it; but they'are only two
out Of ten.
The bad faith of the present board
in their treatment of the grade teach
ers has been odverted TO in these
columns heretofore. That was a glar-
ing imposition. After giving these
teachers to understand that if more
money could be provided, and the
teachers labors got that additional
money, that would 90 to tho grade
teachers, the board cut these teachers
of with mere shabby fraction OF the
raises IN salaries which the money
added by the teachers efforts would
properly allow. The teachers got the
raise in tax limit, which amounted to
nearly forty-eight thousand dollars,
which would have brought to each
raise in salary Of from twelve to ff
teen dollars q month, bu5 the board

Religious Solidarty"-(an organized and
disciplined Church vote) 1 can only regard
as political nuisance of the worst charac-
ed government.
We now have two thoroughly organized
Church votes in this country and our exper-
fence with them certainly should not lead us
to encourage the formation of another such
organization. Religious corporations like COM
mercial, are more less selfish and intent
upon their own agrandizement. In the nature
of things, when lot of folks come to believe
they are engaged in great contest, with
themselves and God one side and the
Devil and the other folks on the other side.
they are not apt to be very considerable of the
political rights of the other folks when once
they gain control.
The Mormon vote has been more or less
beginning While at Nauvoo they held the
balance Of power between the Wings and
the Democrats. OF course, the vote, like all
organized church votes, went to the highest
bidder-sometimes to the Democrats, and
sometimes to the Wings. They were driven
out of Missouri because Of their political huck-
steering, and from Illinois for the same reason.
The Mormons have profited by their past
periences and now manage their political af-
fairs more prudently, still their organized vote
is rightly held to be a corrupting influence.
The Catho..c vote of this country never
thoroughly organized and disciplined until
within the past three four years Its mobil-
ity is now all that the hierarchy could ask

All they want to know is whether the three

1t is not desirable that should all be cast
in one mould, two mouds. The greater
the diversity the better. Progress comes OF
diversity. A favorte expression is 1.-THE Shep-
herd and flock" Why hot say 1.-The
Herdsman and his catte?.' A church boss is
as obnoxious political boss.
1t is hardly necessary to argue that our
public school system is only or
becoming harmonious and homogeneous peo-
pie The public school brings children to-
gether. Makes them acquainted. Knowing
each other their and religious prejudices
are forgotten. Church schools cultivate and
perpetuate all such antagonisms. A liberal
government can be maintained only through
the intelligence of its voters. If they
the victims of blind unreasoning prejudices
and beliefs they easily become the prey of
political tyTants.
