Utah She said: Gentile myself I never lost curios ity regarding the peculiar institution rdr rwi on I hnvp lived twentv vears among the Mormons I like the people effect and I like their religion tor polygamy is a religion with them I do not of course like this form of their belief They are a cheerful jolly set of folks their wor ship more nearly resembling that of the Methodists than any religion known to us They do not scare you out of your senses with threats of eternal damnation and hell fire in church if any thing funny is said you are at liberty to laugh and are not considered to have offended the proprieties They are gen erous open handed and whole souled as a general thing and nowhere on earth for I have traveled far and observed much and know whereof I do women uphold each other so much as the Mormon women do They have a sym pathy and a charity for euch other that i women elsewhere would do well to emu late women work in tlie Terri tory their work is seldom of a character to increase wealth and as each wife must have her separate rooms or house and a stipulated allowance to live upon it can readily be seen that polygamy was an ingenious device to keep men from amassing wealth I remember well a casein point The editor of a certain paper was allowed to live in peace and happiness with his only wife until the I growing influence of the journal and the emoluments therefrom attracted Brig attention The editor was in formed one day mat ne nau too wu tbn taIktiaiic rites nt the enuren he must take another wife The editor did not want to and as may be supposed neither was his wife anxious that they shouldBut there was no resist ing Brigham It must be done The wife and the husband were tenderly at tached They desired to keep their means for the education and future main tenance of their only son but their pri vate wishes availed nothing A young girl was selected as the second wife and a wing was built to their house Th wife fell sick with grieving and with jealous torture As she lay for weeks on her bed she could hear the hammering going on and listened' with the same feelings that a condemned man hears the erection of the scaffold on which he is to be executed But being a true Mormon and believing like her husband that he was only performing a religous duty she prayed for resignation and submission She succeeded so well that she was able to attend the wedding and give the bride away as it were but after that matters did not work well Although wifo ritd hard to keen the peace the second wife was a virago and jealous where is a lapse from virtue more con the infidelity of a wife is punished by the loss of caste and complete social banish ment A woman can only be married to one man at a time Divorce is in easy reach but to the husband de facto and pro tern she must remain true A case oc curred within my knowledge which though painful had its amusing side A man had a wife Both believ ed polygamy was right but when the husband put it into practice and brought home a handsomer and younger bride the first wife found it hard to bear There are certain things very galling about this Mormon custom The first wife is expected to treat the new comer as a 'welcome guest and if not in good circ*mstances she must resign her sleep ing apartment to no humil iation spared the supplanted wife She must not only get down from her throne but she must place her rival upon it all of which the wife did of whom I tell you She set her teeth so hard that no niur mer escaped them and became what Mormon women all think the Lord in tended they should be martyrs The second wife was a pretty addle pated lit tle creature who had only married Mr Black for the sake of a home without caring for him in the least while the first wife loved him devotedly All went quietly for a time till Mr Black attain ed the great object of a ambi tion He was given what they call a mission that is he was sent abroad to proselyte In his absence the two wives lived together and the second wife at tracted the attention of an inferior man first wife was amiability to the second wife especially wheu the inferior gentleman called She discreetly with drew and never seemed aware that the hvn Lrwl ffillpn mafilv in love with each other So matters went on untiP the re turn of the mutual husband Wife num ber 2 found a confession obligatory The husband could not have

J'UIKlvJliail vau luntiij iziuwv men Brigham was bound to practice what he preached and as Ann Eliza would not take no for an answer and he did say to her I know for a cer she became the nineteenth wife At this time all the remnants of love the old man had to give were lavished on Amelia who had not wanted him but relatives He made honeymoon as brief as as possible and hurried to Amelia Eliza says in her letters that she was banished to a wretched little place in the country or words to that Tneiruiii is tiuii hku uh uiu of his wives she was given a choice oi residence She a pretty little well stocked farm about four miles from Salt Lake City not a lady in New York but would be pleased to own such a place Ann Eliza made a great complaint of never having anything to wear but acal ico dress I never saw her in any but a silk of the best make and material In Utah as elsewhere the ladies wear cali co when about their work There are no drones in the great Mormon hive Eliza struggled hard for the officeioi queen bee but there is no such sinecure She was so nettled at infrequent and quite ceremonious calls that she took a dislike to her farm and thought that if she were to get within the city limits she would get more chance at him so she teased and tortured him until he gave her a house in town It was a very com fortable commodious dwelling very roomy and well adapted for a boarding house this time tho Gentiles had over run the Mormon fastnesses and where the American goes there the boarding follows The nineteenth wife could not become the power behind the throne so she resolved to open a boarding house Brigham thought it beneath the dignity of his wife infinitesimally speaking to keepa boarding house but she pestered him so he consented He had married he had too long ner to ger ria oi ner unu nut Buivcuuiug rites of the church he thought the boarding house would quiet ner one ivuk in sume vcuinra who backed her in open rebellion wrote her a lecture and started her lecturing This was the inner life of Brigham and Eliza Could she have stepped into place she would have done as that very long headed lady has done and the world would never have heard either her wrongs or her lecture a general thing women arewoed in Utah the same as elsewhere At the same time there is a class of girls who cast about and pick up a husband for themselves When I say a

in the other They would meet in the back yard common to both but without speaking After the birth of a son to the second wife her temper because she could not entirely supplant the first wife became so unbearable that the unlucky editor implored Young to grant him a divorce After that the second wife went to what is popularly known as the bad The husband induced her to give the child into the keeping of the first wife The two boys have been reared as broth ers and no wife has since disturbed the harmony of the little household singular thing in Mormon fami lies is the perfect good feeling which in variably exists among the children They never quarrel as step sisters and broth ers do in the states for they are early tought that their rights are equal and respect them their common father

do not practice polygamy are wrong and not they and they especially the wo men are fond of inveighing against the immorality of the States the flirtation and worse of Gentile wives and the un faithfulness of Gentile husbands I have often had them say to me: selfish are you Gentle wives You get married to one man You find him a good father You know that the women in th world outnumber the

her present for humanity sake never permitting her to speak to him 4 At almost the first Ainner I was invi ted to in Salt LakeCityT was introduced to a gentleman Me will call him Jones I was also introduced to two ladles nam ed Jones but it didiriot occur tome until I was told afterward that they were both married to him One was passe proud and stately in bearing'and appearance The other was young and very pretty and seemed to shrink at the sound ot the voice She flew to obey her com mands which consisted of orders to wait on Mr Jones she would say hand George this! hand George that get hat cane fetch gloves As I have said before the first wife is mistress of all the others and they are forced to obey her as abjectly as slaves Emma was the second wife of JoneSj and the wife ruled her i th a rod of iron There was no tyranny she did not inflict upon her no mean merciless grinding under foot that she did not exercise Jones left them to fight it out So hide ous was the first treatment of the second that she finally went crazy and had to be confined iu an asylum Mrs Jones the first urbanely gave Mr Jones permission to bring home any number of young and pretty wives but at latest dates he had not availed himself of her kindness ighting it out reminds me of a young fellow who had a pretty young wife but soon began to pay his addresses to a young lady He took the latter on a little excursion on which as it happen ed his wife had gone They met and as the no intimation of what he was contemplating she began to make a scene just as a Gentile wife would He hurried both ladies into a room in a rus tic hotel on tho pretext of talking it over quietly As soon as he got them there io slipped out locked them in and gave orders below that no one should let them out or pay any attention to their cries for assistance The day went on and the iusband enjoyed himself but the women fought and stormed and went into hys terics and fainted and recovered and fi nally got awfully hungry In vain they shouted and begged to be released Then they wept and made up and when the husband came and demanded through the keyhole if they were good friends and would like something to eat they both said meekly to all his questions Then he unlocked the door and they wnnt anil hnd a coz little dinner togeth tr and when he married the young lady they were all happy ever after old men invariably select young women as wives they often make a concession to a daughter and marry her mother at the same time so as not to sep erate them and a voting man will often take a mother and grandmother along with the daughter Literally in Utah men frequently marry a whole family A wife getting old is often glad to have her husband marry a daughter by anoth er husband so that the original wife may not be ousted from her privileges and a comfortable home is a custom out there to call a wo man hfter her first name in order to distinguish her or Distance the wife of John Young is called Libbie John and not Mrs John Young The first emigrant wemen were gross ly ignorant Tnose born in Utah in the present generation are educated and re fined quite capable of thinking and act ing for themselves What with the newspapers brought into the Territory the railroads tempting them to travel and bringing in hosts of strangers the Mormon women of to day have facilities for enlightenment equal to those in New York city The young girls generally are refusing to accept polygamists as hus bands and wives are beginning to appeal to the law to punish their bigamous part ners The best class of men are willing to drop out of their religion its one repul sive feature and would prefer to send td the seat of government some man who is not a polygamist If the Mormon people are not perse cuted into an obstinate and prolonged continuance of polygamy it will die a natural death and in thirty years hence there will not remain a vestige of THE INDUSTRIAL SOUTH The most careless observer must be
