| 520 | _a"Conditions in Utah" by Thomas Kearns is a historical account written in the early 20th century, specifically in the 1900s. This book primarily addresses the social, political, and economic conditions in Utah, particularly focusing on the influence of the Mormon Church and its leaders. Kearns, a senator from Utah, articulates his concerns regarding the church's political power and its violations of the pledges made to the United States upon Utah's admission as a state. In his speech, Kearns emphatically outlines the problematic relationship between the Mormon Church's leadership and the citizens of Utah. He criticizes the church's autocratic control over both political and business spheres, highlighting how this control oppresses the larger community and contradicts the fundamental principles of freedom and governance. Kearns calls attention to the persistence of polygamous practices despite promises made during Utah's statehood negotiations and expresses his desire for the government to intervene to ensure that its laws are upheld. He presents a compelling case for the necessity of reform in order to preserve the rights and freedoms of the citizens, emphasizing a need to separate church influence from state affairs.
