Anna Among the Mormons
Visit of Mum Anna Dickinson to Silt Lake
City —Her Impressions of Polygamy —
Naughty Men and Slavish Women—She it
Athamed of Her. Sex and Wanlt to Die-
Women Mutt Ride A it ride Hereafter.
From tl* San Franeiteo Chronicle, Sept, 7.]
The audience that attended Misa Dickinson’s
lecture at tho Metropolitan Theatre, on Sunday
erenisg, waa in marked contrast to that of the
evening before at PlaU’a Hall. With the exeep.
tion of tho upper gallery, the house was crowd
ed with an intelligent and appreciative audience,
whom, aa Misa Dickinson afterwards said, “it
was a pleasure to lecture to.”
At 8:15 o’clock, accompanied by her brother,
the Rev. J. Dickinson, the lectnrer mado her
appdtfnnce and commenced ns follows : “Sea
Rome and die,” is an old and well-known pro
verb of the day. Live to work and work ear
nestly. And I know full well that tlio matter of
labor is not commended in this world as it ought
to be, particularly where ono tries to reform it.
Take the world easily and let it move on its.des
tined course. Think you that God will do all
the work and let ns lay idle hero below ? Oat
here, on these California plains, are oases and
patches of vegetation, manzanitn wood and bar
ren, profitless herbage. Thero aro places, np
and down all tho Pacific coast, where God has
made beautiful gardens anc^ perfect paradises
without the hand of man being used at all in
them. But for that reason man most not be
idle and wait. We mnst all work, more or less,
each in his placo. “Stand still and see the sal
vation of God," may do very well for those who
have worked, who have lived with profit. ’ But
“stand by and see tho salvation of God,” is
blasphemy for tho man who lets his hands hang
idle at his sides and docs nothing. And why,
my friends hero to-night, should wo thihk we
must not work to help mankind and our fellow
creatures gonorally? As I trod tho streets of
this new Sodom, the thoroughfares of this City
of the Plains, this opais in a desert, and as I
•' i . '>f tl»- men nn.l women of the
" ‘..IV. Ill" brutality n:i<l dii..v-i mi nt of
their natures that was stamped on them, and oh
I saw little children growing up amid all the
wickedness of this great city, I stood still and
cried out, with my heart if not with my lips,
”0h, God! inspire ns nil, that we may work for
the reform and good of our fellow creatures and
the amelioration of such things as these!”
SODOM.
It was at the close of a lovely day in June—
one of those grand evenings on the Plains—that
I saw them stretching their golden expanse
away aa far os the eye could roach, and saw that
sapphire sea reflecting the sapphire sky above,
and, away off from the city, those grand moun
tains with tho ever-gleaming, brilliant snow
shining above them all; while, amid all this
glowing scene lay that plague spot, Salt Lake
City, a foul blot on naturo'H face, a*whitened
sepulchre without; and within, what ? A beau
tiful town, indeed, it is, with its broad, oool,
clean streets; with its little streams of water in
ML their mountain freshness and icy coldness,
so pure and dear that, paradoxical as it may
seem to you, one can stoop down i>nd get a most
refreshing drink of tho purest water from tho
K Uer itself. With its nicturcsqno scenery, its
autifnl buildings, its little adobo huts and all,
it is a beautiful city in tho desert, a lovely and
pleasant spot to come and feast one's eyes with
after a journey across tho arid waates. “By
their fruits ye shall know them,” said tbo Mas
ter of old, and by its fruits ye shall know Mor-
moniam, and whether what you seo at Salt Lake
City is any better or any worse than what is to
bo seen any day in San Francisco or Now York.
True, no gambling, no riots, but order and quiet
day and night There are no churches save one,
and what a one is that Tho children yon seo
playing in tho streets aro dobased, wretched,
unhealthy looking, bearing in their counte
nances the impress of tho most brutal passions
of men. •
X MORMON FAMILY—ME, AND TIIE MSS. SMITHS.
I called at a house there and sat down in tho
S trior, and in came a man and woman. “Miss
ickinson, my wife Mrs. Smith," and in enmo
another, “my wife Mrs. Smith”—(laughter)—
and so on through a whole lot of them, all “my
wifo Mrs. Smithand not one of these women
came in as tho happy wife or mother, or as the
mistress of that home, but all alunk in with a
debased, servile Sir, looking like tolerated slaves
rather than anything else. Ono of them told
me that she had six children, another that aho
had twelve, and another that she had fiftoen—
(Isughter)—and half of all them were dead, and
I looked at the other half, and when I saw tho
wretched unhealthy creatures, I cried, “My
God, the hand of death is on them too.
Brigham's theatre.
I went to the theatre. I went, oxpecting to
bo disgustod, but I was more than that. There
were women all around me, and I would seo ono
man here and another thero, and each bending
over ton or fifteen women, and I was told that
they were his wives; and as I looked nronnd
and aaw theso women and their degradation,
such a sense and feeling of sliamo and despair
came over mo that I cried “ O God, let mo dio
whrro I stand!” and then tho second thought
came, and I said, “Oh no, lot me not die, lint
give mo strength to withstand and battle against
this.” ▼
NAUGHTY GENTILE VISITORS.
I carno ont to Salt Lake City with the best
men in the oonntry—men whom’ tho country de
lights to honor and reverence—and, ns wo all
knew wo were coming to Salt Lake City, wo
naturally talked a great deal about it, nnd’what
do yon think was tho tenor of theso men’s con
versation? Why, after I had listened for some
time, I thonght I should pray for deafness or
cotton to put in my cars. They thonght Mor-
monism a fine institution; it mnst bo a jolly
place where a man can have a dozen or two of
wives and yet bo respectable. It must bo jolly
to live in a place where divorces can bo had for
five dollars, and where, if yon get tired of your
wife, you can tack on a pretty little Mormon and
no ono can say n word to yoii. Nice conversa
tion for respectablo men, and all of them mar
ried but two, and they were tho best behaved of
thelot. “Oh, it was only a joke.” IVell, sup
pose H was a joke. Suppose a lot of respect
able married women were to talk in the cars
and say, “Oh! it’s a fino institution, get divorced
any timo yon want to for $5. 'When yon get
tired of your husband yon get rid of him, shove
him to ono side and get the best looking young
Mormon yon find.” Now, what would people
think who heard them speaking that way, even
if “it was all a joke ?” Why, they would think
them women who were lost to all sense of dig
nity and honor.
EASTERN FPEECHM VEERS.
When 1 got to Salt Lake Oity they were sere
nading. It wasn’t mo they were doing it to—
(laughter)—but they were* serenading some of
the big-wigs that had come along; and then
those “respectable” men got out and made
speeches. Such speeches! They didn’t know
I was listening to them, but we women hear a
great deal more, and are sharp enough to be
awake a great deal oftener, when anything
going on, than we get credit for. I was at 3
window listening to them, and there I heard one
honorable Congressman and well-known Re-
nretentative stand up and pledge himself, and
pledged his companions, to do their utmost to
supporVand care for the interests of these peo
ple.
it Brigham's tabernacle—a well-known cler
gyman AMONG THE MORMONS.
I went into the Tabernacle, and I expected to
be disgusted there, too, and I was. There,seated
in tho midst of a lot of “elders,” was a reverend
gentleman, a well-known and much tAlked-of
divine with a white necktie—the Rev. Thomas
Todd—and while I was there this most reverend
gentleman stood np and he made a speech, and
he told a little story in which, if he didn’t di
rectly illustrate it, at any rate he gave the in
ference that Mormons were just as eligible for
heaven as any one else. And all this was just a
type of how the world outside treat of Mormon-
ism and gloss over its abuses.
SHAMEFUL INDI1TERENCE OF CONGRESS.
Congress has no time; its committees have
Hi 00 * ^7 k* ve time to scamper across
the Continent, and spend public money in see-
ing sights and doing nothing. And there are
the newspapers, they have no time: their col
umns are filled with any trash or stuff, but not
a word on this. And in^tho pulpits, day after
on re-
day, the clergymen who fill them speak „„ to -
ligion and reform, bnt not a word do they say
? ( n And ‘be women of tho land, they know
it; they know how their sex are debased and
degraded m this second Sodom, and with all tho
influence and power that women possess, if they
only chooso to nse it, they do nothing; they sit
in elegance and comfort, and they say not a
word. J
SLAVERY OF MORMON WOMEN.
I asked why, and simultaneously with the
question came the answer and I saw why. In
this second Sodom—this Salt Lake City—is
sanctioned openly what is tolerated in San
Francisco and New York. The idea is nothing
more than this: that woman is man’s property
all over tho world, his to hold and to keep, she
to be humble and to serve and he to be indis
putable lord and master. I stand here to say
to you to-night, to yon men who listen to me,
that a woman is just as individual and responsi
ble and capable of action for herself as a man.
I stand here to enter my protest as a woman
against such a blasphemy as this: “That a
woman is made for a man,” “that she is his
property, goods, and chattels,” “that beside
lim she is nothing—a myth.” That is what is
being thundered from every pulpit in every city,
what every newspaper in the land says and
every man. Woman is to abject herself and
debase herself, and hnmble herself, and lose all
her individuality, and if she rebels society will
only increase her misery. Men want to control
in everything, they want to bo the masters of
all They have always had the muscle and the
force, and now they want to revive the old bru
tality, the old serfdom and slavery that charac
terizes barbarous and uncivilized people.
INSIDE OF A HAREM.
In Salt Lake City I went to the house of a
Mormon elder. I was told before hand he had
two wives, and that they had both lived togeth
er some fifteen years, and were perfectly happy
and contented—they lived together in their
house and were perfectly contented with their
lot, and woold not change it if they could. I
was not a man. I did not believe a word of it,
and so I went to see for myself. I went into
their house, and it was a magnificent one. Here
in Ban Francisco it would bo a fine house, and
there in Salt Lake it was a slendid one. Mag
nificent furniture, fine rooms, fino gardens, and
numerous servants. I and my friend sat down
in the parlor and in camo ono of this man’s
wives. She was a fine, good-looking, healthy
Englishwoman, who could not speak ten words
of grammatical English to save her life. I talked
freely to her; there was no hindrance to that.
I asked her how long she had been married.—
“Seventeen years.” “Married here?” “No.”
“Married in England?” *No.” “Where were
7ou married, then?” “In St. Joseph.” Her
husband began to fidget, and sent her out to get
a piece of gold, or quartz, or somothing of that
kind. I understood it all. She comeback, and
couldn't find it, of course. I know that. I tried
to commence where we had broken off, and her
husband immediately wanted something on the
a > of tho house. 'When she got back again, I
ed to commence again where we had left off,
and he broke in, “Miss Dickinson oame to eat
strawberries and cream ; now, Maria, go off and
•ee if they are ready.” I understood it all.—
Yes, every word of it. By and by in came an
other sad-looking but handsome woman. I
looked at hor; aaid I at once, “Madam, you
aro the second wife.” and so it turned out She,
also, was an English woman, and the two of
them were the handaomeal women I eew at Salt
Lake. Bn?, she appeared sad and worn. There
was no “joyous happiness of married life” about
her. There was a piano in the room, and in
camo tho little girl of the house, and at once
the father sitijl something about music, and was
evidently venr proud of his daughter's capabili
ties in that line. So I asked her to plsy, and
she did, and mado a horrid din, and, under
cover of the noise and din, I had my
conversation with tho wife. Sho had not
understood their doctrines. I asked her: “Did
you know when you married your husband that
he could, if ho would, marry another woman ?”
“No.” “Did he not tell you so at tho time ?”
“No, he did not. Our missionaries and preach
ers when they go out nover preach that 1 '

aand would noYer marry again." “Bnt he did,”
said I. “Yea,” she answered, and a sad, har
rowed look came oyer her conntenance. “Yee,
only a year after ho married again.” “And do
you liko that? do yon like him to havo more
wives than one?” “Oh, yes, I do! I wish he
had six or seven." I saw throngh it all in a
minnto. I understood the state of that woman's
mind at onco. Bat I was not surprised. I
looked blank and I went back on tho old Lack.
I commenced and questioned her abont her
English life, and I painted the picture of tho
little cottage at home and tho courtship, and at
last the marriage to ono whole-souled, honest
husband; and how they would live together,
and how slio would wait at tho door of their
home nnd watch for his comiDg in the evening;
and I asked her if she conld not bo happy there.
And sho put hor handsome hand to her face
and bowed her head and cried, “Oh, my God !
couldn’t I !" And then it was plain, it was
easy to see, how that woman really thonght and
felt.
SIDZ-aiDDLES DENOUNCED.
Miss Dickinson’s lecture was a very long ono.
Sho spoke for almost two hoars, and the resame
we have given above is not ono-tenth of what
she said. She gavo a description of her tonr to
the Yosemite vidley, and commented very se
verely on the “ridiculous side-saddle mode of
riding” that society had imposed on her sex, and
said sho knew what sho was talking about. She
had tried both ways and she conld ride with
ease in the masculine style. The side-saddle
stylo was very typical of the mode in which
women go throngh tho world; it is a one-sided
style all throngh; one. side worn ont and one
aide cramped and dolled from want of use. She
leoadaded bar lecture at 10:10 o’clock, tail
lond applause.
Tub State Fair.—This exhibition promises
to be a grand affair. A superb sito has been
chosen, immediately on the Macon and Western
Railroad, about two and a half miles from the
city, and the Executive Committee are hard at
work preparing it for the forthcoming occasion.
A largo amount of money will be expended, and
everything done to make tho fair a glorious suc
cess.’ And there is equal activity among the
people. The planters, manufacturers, mechan
ics, stock-raisers, and housewives all over the
State are getting ready their various contribu
tions, and the number promises to be greater
than ever before displayed in the State. AVheth-
erasregardsher centrality and convenience of ac
cess, the extensive and elegant accommodations
of her hotels and the hospitality of her citizens
generally, Macon is par excellence the place for
the Fair. Thero is no other point in the State
that equals it in any of these respects, and the
Society, at its very next meeting, should abolish
tho migratory feature and locate the Faira per
manently at Macon. There is neither rhyme
nor reason in keeping it afloat, while something
is dne to the public convenience as well as to
the enterprising citizens of Macon, who havo
spent their money, and given their labor on so
Uberal a scale in behalf of the industrial inter
ests of the State. Five hundred miles is too far
for a citizen to travel in order to reach the Cap
itol or Annual Fair in his own State.—Savannah
Republican.
General Korert Williams, who is much
talked of as the candidate for United States
Senator from reconstructed Virginia, is best
known to to the general public as the officer
who married the beautiful widow of the lato
Stephen A. Douglas. It would indeed be pas
sing strange if the lady should chance to find
herself a second time the wife of an United
States Senator.
Cotton on the Kiyxb.—A well informed com
mission merchant states there are now from
three to five thousand bales of cotton on the
river, waiting for a rise in the river to be trans
ported to this city. Both the com and cotton
crops on the river lands have proved successes.
