a reporter of tills paper recently said say I 1 will tell you something rich it my same Is withheld after receiving a desired promise he continued do you know that merry ell was to pay a short time since in the democratic camp no well it was and this Is the way it teune about judge powers went forth to conquer utah by the power of his oratory and the force of his commission as spokesman and mouthpiece ot the democratic party he never spoke his piece with more fervor and was undoubtedly a warm number somehow however the people did not respond as feelingly as the judge would have liked his attacks on chairman spry tell flat and his best rounded periods were rated as stale so orlando feeling like a back number came into democratic headquarters and laid his resignation at the feet of chairman bamberger and threatened to jump his job banged a conference with the un the un americans this brought on a crisis chairman bamberger Bamber ser ig a shrewd business man a good if he does den it and knows how to unite those who have a common purpose he called the judge down arranged a conference with the un americans who were and are really working lo 10 the same end as the democrats and for the same purpose the defeat of the publicans public ans the net re bult of the conference was an agree frank cannon was to be pushed to the fore and powers was bent to the rear for a time powers went to st louis ostensibly to rest hia loice but any one who heard him at ogden oct 5 knows that talk of that kind is the merest rot judge powers voice was then clear as a bell the democrats it they got together would still be in a hopeless minority st the revised plan was for the opposition to the republican party to get together so cannon became the man most needed by the plotters senator kearns who had easy access to cranks heart having got there before went after frank frank was communicated munica ted with he communicated with the national democratic committee taggart responded co my son without scrip or purse god bless you you can still be a democrat but until after election be very still so prank goes out ain americans to get tbell good will to fire the old liberal heart with his turgid rhetoric and at last to become their moses and lead them into the democratic camp where milk honey and all other good things are supposed to flow it is a but will it work it good fco lors but how will it assay in quantity but what about roosevelt said the scribe s roosevelt be said the W I 1 P do you think kearns wants roosevelt elected you are a sucker sonny kearns wanted postmaster thomas fired smoot said no roosevelt said amen kearns wanted col matt dougherty Doug berty instated reinstated re with a great flourish of trumpets did tumble well I 1 should smile he fella on kearns and when the would be boss picked himself up and put arnica on his sore spots he was antl roosevelt all over but he nursed his wrath and hid his chagrin and waited perry heath attacked the president through the tribune do you think that perry made a break not so young man perry simply obeyed orders perry attacked the church was that another break young man you are an ama cheor so to speak perry was trying to save his job then kearns saw tho inevitable he saw the roosevelt boom in the ascendancy the hopes of tho malcontents were shattered and he must do something to right himself ho tried hard to get into the roosevelt band wagon but in the language of his newest hired man smoot took a roosevelt delegation to chicago roosevelt had perry kicked out of the of the national committee kearns got scared his political ship had a jonah he consulted the oracle the oracle said perry should have gone to ninevah instead of salt lake or lippman climbs into alio boat lippman was a presidential appointee ho was also in good favor with the church tom told the president that he fired perry because ho favored hanna teddy laughed he sent word to joseph F that he biad ferry alvn because he attacked the mormon people joseph ha faed the tribune supports roosevelt and fairbanks good it tries disrupt and ruin the republican party in utah the only hope of and real support to the president it tries b defeat joe howell a republican supporter of the president it tries to defeat a republican legislature to the end that a democrat should thomas kearns as senator the tribune supports the national republican ticket so does the herald so does powers so does hiles 1 but kearns latest acquisition in the hired man line is cannon cannon probably came high but he had to have him he needed him in his business cannon is the friend of dubois dubois Is the friend of cannon cannon and dubois are friends of kearns dubois stands sponsor for cannon to the democratic national committee cannon is staked out to enter the camp of tho republican philistines conquer and turn them over to the democrats A very smooth job eh well put up nicely glued together they deny it of course are indignant etc but it is solemn truth all the same cannon made one bad break he attacked the president that down on the program prank Is somewhat emotional he got excited he had heard kearns cuss teddy so he opened his mouth and put his foot in it that was not the proper thing just at this time for a Kearn site to attack teddy there are many good republicans in the un american camp who are not fully alive to the intent and purpose of the managers some of them are not strong enough to eat the meat upon which kearns dubois cannon etc teed they should bo fed milk the tribune must blubber and whine and bluster about how ardently it Is supporting the president for does not joe lippman hold down a a year sinecure and Is not the senior senator posing as a republican martyr frank made a bad break as I 1 say but the balance of his speech was a beamut be aut just think how it will sound out in the great united states that the son of geo Q cannon once expelled from the american congress tor polygamy has attacked the mormon church for its dealing with moses thatcher and other misdeeds the senior senator will tearfully meet tha president and say how could I 1 help it young utah was demanding that I 1 lead in the fight 0 they are a fine band of patriots I 1 tell you they are playing a shell game with the people they want to discredit utah and it utah goes republican the tribune will raise the walling cry of church influence it the plans of the conspirators succeed and they turn the state over to the democrats now discredited senator will into republican headquarters and say 01 bowld ye that that fellah dellior the goods see deal wid yer Uncle Tommas next time ta ta will the republican liberals bite asked the scribe some of them have said the W I 1 P it looks heroic you know and sounds good to prate about independence and to defy a hierarchy to demand a cessation of something to tell about the glorious institutions bequeathed thed us by our forefathers they are patriotic enough all right and want to bo true to american institutions but some of them are emotional aad are being led without thinking into a democratic ambush you know sonny when I 1 hear one of them talk it reminds me of a story I 1 once read about tom reed the great speaker he was listening to an acrimonious discussion between a democrat and a fiery little republican who said that while well I 1 name him was bumming around buffalo that benjamin harrison was at the front fighting the battles of his country that his dauntless bravery and undying devotion to his country was shown upon this battlefield and that battlefield and after a while the little man ran down and appealed to tom reed to verify his statement A iberry twinkle came into the great states mans eye as he answered sir you bet gen harrison was all right he was a brave man and a patriot from 61 to 65 he did everything he could to save his country but he do it all there were others so young man you can safely say to these latter day patriots who are so anxious to prove their undying devotion lo 10 the cause of religious and other liberty they no doubt have the feeling all right but they got a monopoly of patriotism by any means they may be willing to shed their blood for freedom etc but there are others there are thousands of good american patriots all over utah not lip patriots merely but those who are willing to die if need be tor their country and they wont vote the un american ticket either there is a great army enlisted in utah in the public schools who read in the school histories the thrilling story of the revolution and tho brave deeds of the patriots of 76 the heroism displayed in the war of 1812 of perry on lake erie and of andrew jackson at new oreland Ore lans of the brilliant feats of old rough and ready taylor and Win flold acott in tho mexican war and then of the long bloody struggle of the war of the rebellion of the great lincoln and his illustrious generals grant sherman sheridan thoimas thoiras Tho iras and others men who fought against and conquered other men as brave as themselves then the spanish american war with its great beata of arms and brillant triumphs for our country the glorious part brave sons bore in this brief struggle they know this is american history the history of their own country they appreciate the tact that utah belongs to this great republic and against that knowledge all the attempts of the pessimistic giai entities who are trying to stir up strife and arouse bitter feelings here in our own state are futile they know that patriotism is not shown by mouth service and loud protestations that no one has a patent right on it yes sonny after a while this un american craze will die out as other crazes have died and after all is over the old republican party and probably for it seems it will never die the democratic party will be in existence doing business at the old stand and the W I 1 P nodded to the scribe and slipped quietly away the scribe was interested in his recital are you |
