Carl R. Marcusen, chariraan of the republican state committee, was vigorously applauded uhen he concluded his fifteen minute talk before the Halt Lake Commercial club and Chamber of Commerce recently. Ilis subject was, The Issues (d This CamThe following is a paign in Utah. synopisis of Mr. Marcusen s addres-.- : Th0 principal issue of this camDocs its senior paign in Utah is, senator, Reed Smoot, or its junior II. King, senator, William speak Utah s sentiment ? ' ' Did the legislature of 1902 first elect Smoot to tho senate by a vote of 36 to 4 because of the esteem in which he personally was held or because of tho principles for which he stood! Did they return him again in 1908, by a vote of 61 to 2 for William II. King because he was in tho saddle or because the things for which ho stood were tor making Utahs advancement and the nations achievement? Again in 1914, by a vote; of 56,281 to 51,128 was ho returned because of personal magnetism or because of principles carefully determined, fearlessly pronounced ardently worked for! Finally, in 1920 was ho swept into office by a vote of 86,566 against 56,280 ( merely on a wave of sentiment that sent Warren G. Harding to the presidential chair or because of the principles, espoused and so successfully campaigned! Utah is and has been for Smoot Smoot is and has been for Utah. A vote for that clean, cultured, native son, Rrnct-Bamberger, for United States Senator is police to all tho world that , we are far Smoot because the principles for which Smoot stands are tho principles for which Ernest stands. Likowi.se a voto for E. O. Lcalf-erwoo- d to return him to congress to carry on tho work that they hilvo so ably begun is an endorsement of principles. I surmise thatsu few among you will ask, and legitimately, too, Why Ls William II. King in the senate toand I reply, Its an accident. day! In 1916 when tho minds of men . and womon wore on lire because of the conflict waging in Europe ho defeated that able statesman, George on Sutherland, now the supreme bench of the United States, because sentiment aflame fanned by phrases adroitly worded and loudly proclaim eu 'Ha kept ns ont of war! 1 did not raise my boy to be a soldier! sapped reason and blured vision. tke signing 0f the armistice which tho. markets of Europe were - closed because had no monev they to buy a stream of the products ol the mine, the farm, the herds came pouring in upon ns until tho summer of 1920, whon'we saw a complete Paralysis of our industrial life. Wool t became, so cheap it was used as a substitute for cotton, corn a substitute for coal, wheat went unharvested, wool brought scarcoly enough to pay the freight, banks began to im as merchants and factories closed their doors. , A republican congress with foresight passed) tho emergency tariff only to have it voted in tho dying hours of Woodrow Wilsons administration. Then March 4, 1921, Warren G. Harding went to the presiLeather-woodential chair, Colton and to congress. Tho emergency tariff quickly passed and was signed Yes May 27, with Hmoots voto and Kings vote No not only No but by ffllibustor. he tried to talk it to death while shiploads of frozen lambs from Argentina unloaded at New York, train loads of wool from Australia passed through our state. Mr. Marcusen showed the value of Utah wool and lambs sobl in 1921 to have been $7,030,000. Approximately the same amount of wool and the same number of lambs sold in 1922 under the benefits of the emergency tariff brought $13,910,000 an increase of $(1,800,000, which would have been had lost to Utah if Senator King had his way. dear-thinkin- t -- d -- and He alson showed the plant realty investment in the Utah sugar Farmers industry to be $25.000,0110. in the last three years have received from these factories $31,000,000 for their boots. There has been $9 labor. Ten for spent 500,000 are cultivating farmers thousand beets. This year tho value of the beet crop to Utah will be $12,000,000. Without the emergency tariff, fought for by Smoot and fought against by King, this industry would have been completely destroyed, said Mr. Marcusen. Mr. Marcusen next referred to the lead mining industry. Utah produce of the lead mined in the of the United States and' worlds production. Over 30 per cent of the wage earners of the stale arc engaged in mining, milling and smelt supply 85 per ing. Mino products cent of tho railroad tonnage of the state. Without a tariff on lead.

Ho spoke on tho growth of the farm bureau movement and for tho opportunity the bureau had for service. Mr. Evans predicted the coming nnity among the farmers which would make it impossible for them to serve not only themselves but th consumer of the farm products as well. He encouraged the membera of the farm bureau to be conservative and to seek what was justly due them but also bear in mind thnt every man is entitled to a square deal. Other speakers at the meeting were President L. L. Bunnell of the farm bureau; Eph Bergesnn, state president of the farm bureau; J. P. Welch, eonnty agent; agricultural James M. Kirkham and u, A.

At head that quarters it was said yesterday Mrs. Jeanette A. Ilydo of Balt Lake of City, who represents the" women tho mountain states on the national executive committee, has, been of much assistance to Mrs. Justin R. Davis, of the republican state committee of Utah, in interesting republican women in work for the party. Utah Ls the only state coming to my attention in which a meeting on the order of a causes has boon called by women for the purpose of deciding upon women to be placed in nomination for tho legislature and county offices. Tho number of women 250 who attended this caucus was Surely this speaks well for the inof terest in politics of the women Utah. Every county in Utah has a woman There aro women and on tho republican state finance adxisory committees and on the speakers bureau. Women played a prominent part in the recent convention. Mrs. Davis, who has again been made of tho state committee, is much liked by the republican women of Utah.
