Caine, the man who has had the mandood to force all this mass of unscrupulous opposition, op-position, Itaud, oppression and wrong, and to itaud there alone; and who has never once faultered, though there are many who would like to have seen him do so.

Il deurived of mat, Mr. Goodwin, occupation would be gone. I think I am safe in saying that if the Liberals are deieated this once that it will be a lasting and pemanent defeat; and I can promise you if they are successful, suc-cessful, you will not have a chance to express your pieffereuce again (Applause.) (Ap-plause.) The issues are sharply defined you understand them one week and you will declare your manhood, your respect re-spect for American instutioiis, or by your default, end your career in Utah.
