Excerpt from Origin of the Reorganized Church and the Question of Succession

During the summer of 1906 and continuing until the summer of 1907, a number of Reorganite ministers who were engaged in missionary work in Salt Lake City and Ogden, were greatly encouraged by one or two apostates and the local anti-mormon press. Their method of pros clyting was of the usual nature, a tirade of abuse and false accusation hurled at the authorities of the Church. En couraged by the anti-mormon help, they became extreme ly vindictive in their references to President Brigham Young and the present Church authorities. Their sermons were so bitter and malignant - which has been the character of most of their work from the beginning, in Utah - that they raised considerable protest from many respectable citi zens. Even non-mormons declared that in no other com munity would such vicious attacks be tolerated. It ap peared at times that these, missionaries were attempting to provoke the Mormon people to some act of violence, that it might be seized upon and published to the world through the anti-mormon press that they had been mobbed, and thus capital for their cause be made of it. Fortunately they'were not molested to the credit of the people so con stantly abused. One of these meetings was attended by a prominent gentleman from the East who was somewhat ac quainted with Utah and her people, he said, in conver sation with the writer a few days later, that never in his experience has he witnessed such a thing before. If that fellow - referring to a Reorganite who has since been promoted in his church - should come to our town and abuse the ministers of our church, calling them murderers.
