TYcderic LocMey, Sr., of Missoula,
Montana, who was editor of tho Salt
lake Tribune from 1872 to 1879, and
whose acquaintance with and knowl
edge of Mormon practices cannot be
questioned, takes exceptions to edi
torial utterances of tho East Ore
gonlan. concerning the Mormons, in
mo following able article:
"Missoula, Mont., March 12. (To

coiueur ao rose. Distance lends en
cnnniment to the view.

ranis mat saying. Senator' Hoar
wanted to bring out what sacredness
attached to tho revelations constantly
ueing received irom the Almlrjhtv
and tho apostle's vacillation was real
ly distressing.
In the Mormon hierarchy thorn
io proicssional "prophets, seers and
revelators;" the president and his
iwo councilors, and the quorum of
apostles. ueforo Utah was admitted
to statehood, and congress exercised
control over its affairs, persistent ef-
juris were made in tho courts to
suppress the practice of polygamy
i ma me Mormon preachers and
newspaper writers invelched acalnst
us persecution. The Aim chtv hart
revealed to his servant, Joseph Smith,
nis uivino win mat tlie early Jewish
practice Of jilural wifehood should be
rostored to our civilization, and the
sons of the Latter-Day covenant
very readily acceded to the com
mand.
"This Indulgence our laws oppose,
and the repeated but futile attempts
at restriction caused serious confu
sion. The apostle, Orson Pratt, one
time discussing these harassing pros
ecution in the Salt Lake tabernacle.
maue tins positive declaration (I
being among his hearers): 'When
man's law conflicts with God's law,
mo true saint has no choice, he
"must" live his religion, though it
carry him Into the penitentiary.'
"That, youwould say, shows that
the Mormon's faith is strong, honest
and sincere..
"But shortly after that, when Del
egate Georgo Cannon (himself an
apostle), went on to Washington to
take his seat for a third term, ho be
ing the husband of four wives, and,
fearing objection might be raised to
his marital multitudinousness, pro
cured divorces from three of these
connubial affinities, to show his purg
ation from the offense.
"No objection was raised to his ad
mission, and the divorces wero not
produced; his harem consequently
went on undisturbed. But it shows
how lightly his religion rested upon
this holy man when he was willing
to sacrifice these wives of his bosom
to gratify his political ambition.
"Hero Is how Apostle Lyman treats
divlno revelation:
" 'Do you mean to say,' asked Sen
ator Hoar, 'that a revelation from the
Lord which had been rejected by the
people would count for nothing?1
"'It would count for nothing for
those who rejected It.'
"'Would u be binding upon the In
strument of the Lord who received
the revelation?'
"'We should follow the wish of the
people.'
"'Well, how about you?' ,
" 'I should be bound to do what the
people direct.'
"I may remark parenthetically that
this testimony Is all moonshine; its
purpose Is to mislead 'The People'
the followers of this annolntcd priest
hood direct nothing.
"One-half are of foreign birth, and
a large proportion, (especially tho
plural wives) cannot speak English;
and they ccept without cavil what
ever Is given Jo them as of divlno
authority. But tho divine genuine
ness of President Josonh K1. Smith.
Francis H. Lyman and others of the
holy npostleate, who aro yet to be
put under the harrow, shows what
a sham this religion Is.
"When Brlgham Young died and
loft tho presidency of tho church va
cant, tho whole apostolic quorum
shut themselves up in an ndobo
building, called tho Council House,
where they remained a week, pro
fessedly holding communion with the
Lord as to the succession to tho va
cant sent.
"Tho Lord's will being Imparted to
His chosen servants. It was announc
ed in tho tabernacle the following
Sabbath to 8,000 assembled saints,
and then a vote was taken.
"The witness, Lyman, says that a
revelation counts for nothing if tho
peoplo reject it, but tho strict and
effective organization of tho church
puts It out of their power to relict It.

met in the heath, because they pal
tered to him in n double senso; they
held the word of promise to tho ear,
but broke it to tho hope. That's the
nature of 'a church election In Utah.
"Announcement beinc made to the
congregation of saints, that tho Lord
had chosen his servant, John Taylor,
to assume tho mantlo formerly worn
uj uio deceased Hrigham,' it was now
given to his people to sustain tho
ixmrs appointment.
What followed, do yon sunnoso?
A call of the roll? or a viva voce
voto? They don't do things thnt
way. The oleaginous George Q. took
the vote, and ho first submitted It to
the surviving members of tho first
presidency.
They affirmed tho choice, of
course. Then the bench of npostles
declared their will, (the whole busi
ness was cut and dried), next tho
elders of the seventies, and so on
through the descending grades of tho
Melchizedek priesthood. Then camo

Impressed with the Impregnability of
the defense, I asked myself, as ono
of the audience, -what vote I would

pressure Is too overwhelming for
