Show iWaV Opposition Continues. BBft From the tlmo the construction w oik on the BBS ,, city light plant was begun "the only" has BBB badgered and harrossed every man connected BBB $ with that work.

That papcrcrltlclscd every BBB move that was made, and during the recent BBB campaign made Innumerable rash statements BBB , calculated to hinder tho progicss of the work BBB and create prejudice in the minds of the pco- BBB pic. Since the election and up tho present tlmo BBB "the only" has not missed any opportunity to BBB' say something derogatory of the pcoplo at work BBB' . on the plant or tho worth of tho plant Itself. BBB Tiik Rki'Uhmcan has preferred to believe BBK y ! that "tho only's" statements were made Ill-ad- BBB viscdly, that Is, before they themselves mado BBB-. , any investigation of the matter of which they jJfflfflfBi'4 were writing, and so advised the people. From the very lirst, Tiik IIkfuiimcan has followed fol-lowed up these adverse criticisms, and Variably Vari-ably proved that they were without foundation, founda-tion, so It cannot,,, bc,donbtedi)ojigcr that "tho onlyV opposition and cpntlnual mlsrcprcsfn- i 'Hutldn liacn and (s,pf a chrQnlo.naturej'em-' ' aridllngwhollv from people -who are chronte.' malicious, vindictive kickers, wholly devoid of fairness whero people of opposite polltlcal.falth arc concerned. The latest outbreak of this misguided bunch Is an attack on Mayor Robinson and Electrician Daniels. It claims that Mayor Robinson appointed ap-pointed Mr. Daniels because of the fact that ho "halls from Utah county and that lie does not possess tho ability necessary to properly operate oper-ate the plant," and then proceeds to make the statement that It has been necessary to hire a Mr. Street, cx-supcrintcndcntof the Hercules plant, at $7.50 a day to do work which Mr. Daniels Is not competent of doing. Just whero "the only" got this idea Is a mystery. mys-tery. Tho present wiring system has been put up under Daniel's Instruction and he has been considered a thoroughly competent man. Different Dif-ferent ones of the big electricians from Salt Lake who have been hero have expressed themselves them-selves very favorably toward Mr. Daniels, and inasmuch as ho has had flftcon years experience his capacity has not been doubted. During tho past few days the work of connecting up residences resi-dences where tho Hercules lights have been ordered or-dered out has increased the work to such an extent that all men connected with the city plant have been worked almost beyond their capacity. Mr. Street has been employed for a short time but only because Mr. Daniels has so much work to do that It has been impossible for him to attend to all the work. Mr. Street is much chagrined at the statement of "the only." This attack on Mayor Robinson and Mr. Daniels Is outrageously ridiculous, mean, unwarranted. un-warranted. The success of all matters pertaining per-taining to the city plant Is remarkable. Some mistakes have been made of course, but comparatively com-paratively few. There will be little difficulties In the future, but the people have every reason to feel proud and satisfied with what they have. |
