HOW VOTES ARE WON. f E-yCbief'of Police Rose of Kansas City, "Kansas, -rc-ho spoke for I the "wets" Wednesday evening, and held his large audience fas- 5 cinated with his stylo of oratory and seeming candor, made one statement to which both sides in this campaign can subscribe. PIo said that in this conflict the strong partisans of either side should learn to be temperate in speech, as when the contest is over there ; would still remain an ever present duty, calling for the united r: energy of the people, namely the promoting oL the industrial wel- fare of Ogden and the state. When men and women, earnestly contending for a cause, lose v t their self-control and break forth in bitter denunciation, they do "T their cause no good and they engender hatreds that remain to em- , bitter themselves and to disturb their homes. There can be no great ' advancement where dissensions divide the people, and the speaker u from Kansas City entreated his hearers not to go to that extreme t in the advoeacy of- either a "wet" or a "'dry'' city. I Calling names and resorting to slurs never made a convert for anything. The speaker who knows the art of winning favor with his auditors, who avoldB that which is harsh and tends to close the mind to his reasoning, wHL make votes, but the denunciator, the f calumniator, ihe detractor, the vilifier might as well address hjm- i Belf to the Wasatch peaks and expect a response as to hope to gain P converts by-his coarse attacks.
