Ladies and Gentlemen-lt is now my
pleasure to Introduce 10 you a speaker
10 whom a Salt Lake audience Is al

Senator Sutherland said.
M Chairman, Ladies' and Gentle

Z more or less general
Il Is a serious misfortune for any
community when IFS elections are con-
lsied, not upon any question OF politi-
"a or governmental issue, but upon
seal or religious differences OF
Flnion merely. Such a state Of af-
4rs Is neither normal nor he8lthful.
an UNFORTUNATE SITUATION.
TO my mind, 81 IS no less unfortun-
ale when the division is along relig-
Gus rather than along political
economical lines. Men do not
Fason with one another under
4lh circumstances. They hurl cpl
Ate ana abuse and denunciation. II
exercise our good sense, We must
NOV that such a condition can result
[ no good Il Is bad for those who are
sl l. engaged In IL, and Il Is
