About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1889 edition. Excerpt: ...of the land, they obey, as witness the establishment and practice of polygamy; that to admit Utah into the Union of States is to enthrone with, sovereignty this power behind the barriers of statehood. That the avowal of a renunciation of polygamy was for the purpose of continuing and permanently establishing the political control of this power. That to admit Utah is to determine that the principles of our republican government shall not apply to all our people and the whole of our territory, but that the best interests and important destinies of at least one of our States is to be intrusted to those who claim to rule not only by right but by power divine. I wish you to note particularly that this is the objection of non-Mormons, both Republicans and Democrats. Now, gentlemen, that is a formidable indictment presented by the governor, if it is founded in fact. I have read it, as I said, for the purpose of accuracy; but I read it for another reason. It comes from a high official source. With this official sanction it has come to you, and the governor in person has repeated it here, and it has gone to the great public, and if it is not founded in fact the wrong is the greater and the more mischievous, because of the high source from which it emanated. It asserts that these people recognize their first allegiance to be to the church; it charges them with insincerely renouncing polygamy for the purpose of cheating you into granting them the powers of a State government, and with a design of using those powers in subordination to this superior power, the church; it charges that polygamy will be given the sanction of positive law, or its equivalent, statutory silence. I do not call in question the integrity or good faith or sincerity of the governor...
