It is at least significant that no charges are brought against him as to the purity of his family life. The real contention of this investigation now going on, is that Senator Smoot represents not the people of Utah, but the Mormon hierarchy,and that he should be debarred from his seat inthe Senate because he was nominated only after formally asking the consent of that hierarchy. Indeed, it is contended by those opposing him, with every show of proof, that he would have been opposed,defeated,and expelled from his office as an "apostle' if he had not promised implicit conformity withthe church's views and objects politically. In other words,it is claimed that Senator Smoot is not a free agent. When Brigham Roberts was refused admission to the House of Representatives it was because he was a confessed polygamist and not because he was a Mormon. Of course, the government recognizes no religious test, nor does it discriminate against any religious body per se.' (233 f.) Good orig. green cloth, g.t. Spine and upper edge dampstained.…
