Show H ' The editor of the Utah County H , ' Democrat denies that Otto Malm, fl - berg has offered to bet on elec- B tion and in the next sentence de- B clares that Otto will furnish him B money to bet. The man who B informed us that Otto is anxious B to bet on his own winning quali- B ties is a crndidate for office on the fl Democratic county ticket, a gen- B tleman and a person of unques- H tioned veracity a rare combina- H tion. We believe that Otto is B guilty offering to bet, and if he B now denies it we believe he is B guilty of prevarication and a H man who is guilty of such things B is not a safe man in the treasurer's B office. Our fight against Malm- B berg is not because of parlissn- B ship but is a matter of honest B belief and piinciple and in it we B are encouraged alike by hot!; B Democrats and Republicans of B Lehi. Tl.ue aie, incompetent H j, ( men on both tickets but in no B . case, in our opinion, are the B public interests in as much danger B ' asby the possibility of Malm- B here's election. We have here- tofore believed in Brother Nelson's Nel-son's devotion to principle above party, above men, above self but we are inclined to doubt his sincerity when he prostitutes his journal in the defense of JSlalm- berg. f;j : . r M -, |
