CM,. bT v' ' N; ' " -n A mlj I IS save Sab fenTtaa-itaons if ifli N:w Party,- i Not Saying Anything, bin Working While .fcislups Aren't Looking. , I Realize That Smoot Has Beeu a Drag ! to Progress and Oppose Church Rule in Politics. While many of the Smootlor element Imagine that the American party If not taking hold with Its principles upon j politics In Utah, because of the easy ) manner In which Apostle Smoot has I executed church Influence to accom j pllsh his designs, the coming election i may prove a revelation to them, inich as ! they have not had since the palmy days of the prophets, iers and rcvclatora ol the Mormon church. The foregoing paragraph Is baaed up- II on an Interview with one of the most I prominent workers and business men ir. Salt Lake City. This man's name Is I withheld for obvious reasons, but what i he tviys upon the prevent situation of h politics in Dtah may be made public I: for the benefit of all who have the wel i fare of the State of Utah at heart, j Returned Prom the East. I ThI? well-known Mormon has Just re cently returned from a trip throughout the I5ast, during which he made nn ex tended visit to the World's fair and a fortnight's stay at Chicago. He reached home the day before the mass meeting held by the American party at the Grand theater, and, In discussing the evidences of church Influence that were so con ijlcuously illustrated In the church Republican convention of Thurs day and Friday, he said: "I am a native born citizen of Utah, j My wife and myself are members In I good standing of the Mormon church. My father and mother were Mormons. Ii All my relatives and nearly all my I friends arc Mormons. I believe in the j Mormon religion, but we have come to I the conclusion that there Is no reason I why the Mormon church should at I tempt to rule In politics or In business j affairs; and while we arc not making a display of our sentiment upon this sub- ject, we expert to go to the polls next j November and let the silent white bal- lot tell the ptory of our rebellion against ecclesiastical control in, politics. Reasons for Silonco. I "You may ask, believing ae I do, why I I do not come out and openly express i my sentiments, and in answer to that f I Kiy that I know too well the Inlluence ; of the Mormon church, not only In re- llglon, but .In politics and In all other affalrn of life whore It attempts to exert . Inlluence. I have seen the effects of re sistance as exemplified In the case of ' Mosc3 Thatcher, who not only stood as I w 11 in the church a." T do, but was a member of the apostolic quorum. When a man like Thatcher may be humiliated j and excommunicated for no offense j whatever, those of us who care for our i standing in the church, while we object to the sacrifice of our political principles I at the behest of church bosyef. we hesl ! tale to brinff down upon ourselves and our fan lltes- the vengeance which 'the i Lord sMth Is mine' but which Is cxer i clvd bj the apoptleo of the Mormon 1 church with no mercy and without Jus tice. "The yoiinaer generation of Monnons are up and doing. Their eyes are wide open and their es.rs are pinned back. They can see. ns well as any Gentile, thc- disastrous effect of church Influence upon the commercial and industrial prosperity of Utah. The have been abroad and see how other communities have prospered, and they have- come, home and Midly place the blame where it belongs. They have ?een certain men high In the councils of the church grow opulent out of their religion, while all thn.t the rc-Pt of us get Is the divine right, to Ti.iv fttir litlilntr. I Uniting for Liberty. "Wc are getting tired of this and w have reeolved to do what we can to achieve Independence for the people of Utah. Ever .-incc this American party movement began we have quietly com municated with each other without thc ald, consent or knowledge of the blrhops of our various and naverai ward?, and we have determined to Join in the move ment for the prosperity of Utah, for curselves and foV our families. I be lieve that there will be 10,000 Mormons in this Slate who will Join In tills- new moerrent to far as voting Is concerned, but who arc keerlng mum as to cause which are animating them. "We believe that this fight on the part of the church to control the politics of the State hat1 been a detriment to un in a buslrcs way, and ha? plat ed us in n humiliating attitude before the people of this country. th,pn Smoot va not only pern Itted but urged by the first presi dency of the Mormon church to become J a Senator from Utah, the day for de-,j nluls of rhurch Interference In politics i was uk" less. f I Smoot aa the Proof.
