ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, Sept. 17, 1884  

* Mormons - Mormonism
* Polygamy - travel westward


Page 6 has nearly a full column taken up with: "The Mormon Ally" which begins: "The Democracy is restive under the accusation that it is secretly favorable to the Mormon Church with its accompanying institution of polygamy...The growth of the Mormon Church in the last generation, from a handful of fanatics, abused & persecuted, driven from Ohio to Illinois, from Illinois to Missouri, from Missouri thru the then trackless plains beyond the mounts to a virgin & isolated valley, there to become a firmly rooted, successful & prosperous hierarchy is one of the most striking events in ecclesiastical history..." with much, much more. A great and very detailed article.
Ten pages, nice condition.
