Viciousness of Christianity in Deseret News Tale
A New York Herald sourced snippet says Christian authorities in Hong Kong licensed gambling houses and Cantonese protests followed. The Herald and Jewish critics are drawn in a broader attack on Christianity and Jews, while the Deseret News accuses the piece of misusing licensing as a broader attack on Christian influence. The fragment hints at press animus toward missionary actions from the Episcopal church in Salt Lake.
