Helaman 3:23

And it came to pass in the forty and ninth year of the reign of the judges,

there was continual peace established in the land,

all save it were the secret combinations

which Gadianton the robber had established

in the more settled parts of the land,

which at that time were not known

unto those who were at the head of government;

therefore they were not destroyed out of the land.

Helaman 5:2

For as their laws and their governments were established by the voice of the people,

and they who chose evil were more numerous than they who chose good,

therefore they were ripening for destruction,

for the laws had become corrupted.
