The latter are mostly pious old ladies, eager for high seats in the Mormon heaven, and knowing no surer way to get there than to be joined on to Brigham's angelic procession. Some of these sealed wives of his are the earthly wives of other men; but, lacking faith in their husbands' heavenly glory, seek to make a sure thing of it for the future by the grace of gra- cious Brigham. Down East, you know, many a hus- band calculates on stealing into heaven under the pious petticoats of his better wif...e; here the thing is reversed, and women go to heaven because their husbands take them along;. The Mormon reliorion is an excellent institution for maintaining masculine authority in the family ; and the greatness of a true Mormon is measured, indeed, by the number of wives he can keep in sweet and loving and especially obe- dient subjugation. Such a man can have as many wives as he wants. But President Young objects 254 OUR NEW WEST. to multiplying wives for men who have not this rare domestic gift ; and he finds great annoyance in being teased by men, unfit to drive double teams of women, to let them try their hands.
