We took an extreme view of the action of our brethren, in relation to political affairs and by denouncing their action in some things, and what was supposed to be their action in others, the effect of what we said and did--however upright our intentions, or honest our motives--the effect, I say, of what we said and did, was to represent our brethren as conspiring against the liberties of the people and trifling with their rights as American citizens." B. H. Roberts, letter to Heber J. Grant, 17 November 1896, 5 pp. Concerning
B. H. Roberts coming home to pay off $1000 debt, and will Heber J. Grant advocate lecture tour?
