New Movement Among the Mormons
A “New Movement” has for some time been in progress among the Mormons of Utah. Its originators appear to be earnest men goaded to the most enthusiastic resistance by the wrongs they have suffered. They charge the Mormon leaders in no mild nor measured terms with spiritual tyranny and oppression of the darkest dye. We have received a worn copy of the first number of the Mormon Tribune, a large eight-page paper devoted to the “movement,” dated Jan. 1, 1870. The movement is rapidly increasing, and promises to be one of no inconsiderable magnitude. It is the opinion of most of our exchanges that internal broils will soon afford a permanent solution of the perplexing Mormon problem.
