Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Need and the Value of Christian Schools in the Present Exigency of the New West: A Discourse Delivered in the Old South Church, Boston, Mass;, Sunday Morning, May 24, 1885
But is the problem altogether solved? Have we reached the end of the business? Or have we reached a point where the end is assured? Far from. It. No mistake, indeed, could be more fatal than folding our hands and settling back into this easy and delightful confidence. It is no ordinary foe, this with which we deal. A more determined, a more bitter, a more unscrupulous body of men does not exist on the face of the globe than the leading officials of the Mormon hierarchy. Their whole past shows that they have no regard for the sacredness of an oath. Their whole past shows, too, that they have not a single drop of patriotic blood in their veins. They hate the Government. They hate the ?ag which symbolizes the majesty and power of the Govern ment They hate the representatives of our national sovereignty. With out any loyalty in their hearts to the Republic 5 without any pride in our magnificent history; without any glow of interest in the hopes we cherish for the future, they bow in submission to magistrates and laws only when compelled to do so.
