KEARNS FLAYS THE MORMONS IN THE SENATE Declares Polygamy Still Com- mon in Utah and the Church a Monopoly. PRESIDENT A MONARCH, Statehood Pledges to National Government Broken and Lead- ers Active Pushing Doctrine. PLAY POLITICS FOR GAIN. Open Defiance to Lawe and Influence of the Great Body Is Used for Selfish Gains, WASHINGTON,’ Feb, 28,—-Senator Kearns, the retiring Senator from Utah, peaking on © «Dubois ant!-polye- ‘amy resolution in the Senate to-day, lashed the Mormons, declaring that polygamy was not only atill generally practised, but that the Churoh leaders ‘were working to re-establish the rule of polygamous class over the Mormon People. He declared the Mormon Church @ monopoly and said that President Smith ruled like a monarch and had the In- come of one. Political parties, he asserted, are nothing to the Church leaders except as they may use them, Continuing he said: “Utah secured her Statehood by a ®olemn compact made by the Mormon leaders in behalf of themselves and their people. “That compact has been broken wil- fully and frequently, "No apostle of the Mormon church has publicly protested against that vio- lation, Knows His Risk. "T know the grayity of the utter- ances that I have just made, I know what are the probable consequences to myself, But I have pondered long and earnestly upon this subject, and have come to tho conclusion that duty to the innocent people of my State, and obii- gation to the Senate and the country, require that I shall clearly define my attitude,” Mr, Kearns described the surround- ings and the powers of President Smith, who, he sald, effects a regal State and has established himvelf with the dignity of a monarch. “In all this social system," sald Mr, Kearns, “each apostle has his great part, He ts inseparable from it,. He wielfis tow such part of the power as the monarch may permit him: to enjoy, nd it is his hope and expectation thit he will outlive those who are his seniors tn rank, in order that he may become the ruler, Church a Monopoly, Taking up the business policy of the church, Mr, Kearns charged taat it amounts to a nbonopoly, He recited the holdings of President Smith, by virtue of his office, as well a# his private holdings and said that when Smith became President he Deasted of his property, while now ho “Ig in recelpt of an income like unto that which a royal family derives from @ national treasury. One-tenth of all the annual earnings of all the Mormons in all the world flows to him, These funds amount to one million aix hundred thousand do} annually,’* Mr. Kearns then took up the subject of *he Mormon marriage relat ily) elation and “riural marriage relations have been continued deflantly, avcording to the will and pleasure of those who had for. merly ylolated the law, and for whose Obedience to law the chutch monarchy plecged the falth and honor of Sts lead- ers and followers alike in order to ob- tain Statehood.” a COOPER'S BODY AT REST.
