BISHOP MILLER'S VIEW.

Richard Hewett was Mormon elder
during the time when the church or
ganization flourished at Nauvoo. He it
was who wrote an inquiry to the first
presidency as to whether or not it was
true that polygamy was being taught
and practiced mt Nauvoo, and which
brought out one of the official denials
made in the Times and Seasons by
Joseph and Hyrum Smith.
We mention th5s as Introductory to
statement later made to him by
Bishop George Miller. Mr.. Hewett
visited around extensively among the
different factions of the Mormon church
after they scattered from Nauvoo and
vicinity, even coming out to Utah in
1S49, if our information be correct,
and he took cognIzancc of the different
views expressed by prominent elders in
these several factions. Concerning
these he wrote to Elder j. j Strang,
mentioning particularly the polygamous
practices of the Utah faction, calling
attention to the fact that out here men
were possessed of many wives. In his
letter to elder Strang he quoted Elder
George Miller upon this particular sub,
iect. Brother Miller says" writes
Mr.. Hewett. that their ing 1.-THE
term applied to this immortality is too
strong for use here will send them all
to hell. This with reference to
polygamy.
But what value can attach to this
pronouncement by Mr., Millera In sec
tion 124, paragraphs 90 and 2l, Doc
trine and Covenants, George Miller is
called by revelation to be bishop
in the church, "like unto my servant
Edward Partridge" because he was a
man Fwithont guile; he may be trusted
because of the integrity of his heart;
and for the love which he has to nv
testimony L. the Lord, love him, -
Further, the Lord is represented as
saying, 'Let no. man despise my ser
want George, for he shall honor ME. -

''BY ITS FRUITS. -

not II we would escape the Judgment
that will he pronounced upon our work
To he brief in our comment upon tins
bit Of the Roberts sermon, let us say
that probably the most effective results
of any teaching with respect to morals
are those which affect the standing or
the home and the family. So far as the
product Of the Mormon faith in this re.
spcct is concerned, we have IT 10 say
that there nre hundreds of new po'

ing the pretended official abandonment
of that practice. This makes Just so
many families immoral, brings into the
world Just so many illeGitimates, and
adds to this family and home immoral
ity, the practice of dishonesty, the sin
of base ingratitudc, the offcnse of re.
pudlation of sacred word of honor, the
trickery of secret breach of holy cove
nant and the sacrilegious disregard of
what the offenders hypocritically de-
clare TO be the word Of the Lord. These
are the results as they affect morality
along one line OF community conduct.
At another point in his sermon Elder
Roberts said in effect, that 1T would be
unfair to 90 into an orchard, select a
few diseased or rotten specimens of the
fruit, and then come out and condemn
the entire orchard. If he Will agree
that the miscreants and criminals VIC
have mentioned metaphorically consti-
tute only the diseased and rotten fruit
of the Mormon orchard, we shall accord
with him in part. But in that event we
should expect Elder Roberts to act the
part of the good husbandman and help
us prune out the rotten fruit that it may
not contaminatc the whole with its dis.
case and decay.

which the territories of Kansas and Ne

The United States II precipitated the
which resulted in the civil war. II led
TO the reorganization OF political par
ties. 1T started a renewal OF the contest
between the north and the south over
a question which had been regarded as
settled for many years. at least by the
compromise measures OF 1870 and 1850.
1t stirred the passions Of the people of
both sections. gave rise, to bitter, and
protracted controversies, both in and out
OF congress, and doubtless Considerably
FASTENED a resort to arms.
This bill sealed the doom of the Whig
party; it led TO the formation of the Re-
publican party; II raised Lincoln and
gave a bent 10 his great political ambi-
tion.

THE HIGH SCHOOL NEED.

We print on another page this morn
ing an article from the civic commit
tee of the Federation of Women s
Clubs pointing ont the iuadequacy of
the present high school quarters. SO
far as that is concerned. the facts are
not in the least disputed They are,
on the contrary, fully recognized. But
the point is whether we could reason
ably expect any improvement under
the present grabbing, grating in
fluences that are in control of the board
of education in this city. The influence
IN control of that board seoms to be
thoroughly selfish, grasping. and de.
fiant of law. Nothing that can he
said seems TO stop the iniquity that Us
constantly going forward.
What reason, then. have we to eX.
pect that competent high school
would be built by this board? What
reason have we to expect other than
that frightful scandal would develop IN
the selection of n school site and the
rakcoffs in connection Herewith? In
view Of the board s bad work in LET.
ting contacts heretofore, surely the
ono who expects any good results to
follow from the voting of the bond
money asked for this board is optimis
tic beyond all sort of reason,
The communication of the civic com
mittco referred 10 embodies a little
story by Principal Eaton of the high
school, suggestive, it is true, IN the way
interpreted by the ladies' hut also quite
as suggestive in the opposite direction;
for if the youth can grow and thrive
so nightly under present conditions, IS
it not true that we should be able to
support those conditions for short
time longer until we can get a compc-
tent, honest influence IN the school
board that will do the right kind of
work7
In connection with this matter we
wish to call attention to a communl-
cation signed F'Gratis' in yesterday
Tribune. This set forth the
monopolistic, scctarian sclIishness in the
present board in way that it is eX
tremcly hard TO get over, Everything

and for n certain sect. Everything
valuable is "hogged" " in one direction,
and for the benefit, advantage, and pro-
motion of the sect that is, in fact,
in the minority in this city. and vet is
able by reason of its false pretense
of a non-partisan board, 10 take every
thing to itself, without the least show
of magnanimity or even of fairness.
All positions in the gift of the board
are tossed among the select and favored
sheep. The ostraeized goats are relied
on to pay the taxes, to keep up the
public sentiment for the schools, and
to supply the wherewithal that the
other side can not bring forward, But
there is the least possibility
of the favored side filling the bill, the
advantage goes to that side 1t is an
instructive, Illuminating communica-
tion, one that should strike deep into
the consciousness of the people Of Salt
