Show I 1 KEARNS CROWD DISHEARTENED ' I There Is tribulation In the "American" "Amer-ican" camp. The wlso ones who can sea a Ilttlo beyond tho ends of their noses have como to tho conclusion that tho movement founded on re-vmgo re-vmgo and hatred cannot succeed. Tho developments of tho past few days hivo confirmed that view, shown that tl o party Is doomed to decay and dissolution. dis-solution. Kearns, tho head and front of tho gang, has given It out cold that 1 n Is about to give up Salt Lako as his heme that after tho election ho v 111 abandon tho fight In Utah and h'.o himself off to his ranch in California, and bask In tho sunny c'lmo whero tho orango blossoms bloom. Without him and his nowspn-T3r, nowspn-T3r, tho so-called "American" party otild bo a dead letter in twenty-four l'ours. Kearns, whon tho time comes, when It suits his arrangements, will go off and without any compunction vlll leave his misguided followers to I -ok out for themselves. That time Is not far distant. Then tho Kearnsltes will bo mon without a party, political c rphans and outcasts. Tho prospect r f a Republican morning paper being s tartcd hero docs not look good to Tom. Ho Is pretty sick of tho whole 1 uslncss and just as soon as he can r ftcr ho and his foolish party are beaten In tho coming election, he will t et out of tho wholo business as quick-1 quick-1 as possible. .Too Llppman saw what was coming, and Hkd tho rats, deserted desert-ed tho sinking ship. Others who have v I lentlflcd themselves with tho partj rro beginning lo seo this and to won Cer whero they will bo at after No vomber 7. Thero aro strong signs o' i Islntegration already and quite a fow i f tho "patriots" aro anxious to got back into their own parties. Failure md disaster is staring them In the 'ace nnd some aro wlso enough to see !t and look out for tho future Tho past few days Lynch's stock has cono up. Tho people nro coming to ceo that In order to boat tho Kearns -4p crowd tho only thing to do Is to vote I tho Republican ticket. This Is a mat- ' 1 ter In which peoplo can't nfford to . tako any chances. Tho only certain, ' . effectual and sure way to beat tho " common enemy Is to votp for Lynch nnd ovory man on his ticket. Make r.o mistake and tako no chances. Tho "Americans" aro calculating on tho chances of a thrco-cornored light to sweep them Into office. Don't bo toollsh. Don't play their game. Concentrate Con-centrate your strength on tho Republican Repub-lican ticket. If you don't, you aro !ost, and tho city will bo delivered over to tho gang of looters. Deat tho Kearns gang now nnd that vlll end them. If not, tboy will go nn for years to plaguo tho city and itato. t J Irrelevant, Incompetent and Immaterial Imma-terial Easy Ez says that when ho is Mayor of Salt Lako City ho "won't I draw no lines against no laborln' men, I whether Mormons or Gentiles." Chair man Darmer of tho "American" party, I however, says If Easy Ez is elected no I Mormons need apply for any city Job. I Ez always did need somebody to tell I him what to do. I i5t & I George Hancock mado a big bluff I l retendlng ho wanted to bet $15,000 In I a lump that Lynch wouldn't bo elected. I Orson Hewlett called him nnd then II Hancock and his fictitious $15,000 p promptly disappeared. I Halloran, tho real estate man, I chalked up ?1,000 tint 'Jbotti I would poll more votes than Lynch. Ed i Jenkins took it up so quickly that It made Halloran's head swim. Lynch nnd tho Republican ticket was the favorlto In the betting yesterday. yes-terday. Tho tido Is running strongly Lynch-ward. Lynch-ward. Nothing can stop it. "Closed until after tho election of Lynch, by order of Democratic Committee," Com-mittee," was tho reading of a placard vhlch remained posted on tho door of Democratic headquarters Wednesday for over two hours before a Demo-?rat Demo-?rat happened nlong to remove it. Such Is tho extreme Isolation of tho place. .4 .it The Tribune has proved that the lentlles control tho business of the Mty, mercantile nnd professional; own '5 per cent of tho taxable property or lie city; own 90 per cent of tho de-Mrnblo de-Mrnblo business property of tho city; -ontrol tho schools; and In proving his, havo proved that there Is no more need of an anti-Mormon party here nan thero Is for anti-Catholic or an-I-Mcthodlst party, and not half the iccessity that there Is for an nntl-'Ccarns nntl-'Ccarns or anti-Cannon organization. J & Every Republican having it in his r her mind to voto tho "American" Icket next Tuesday, should stop and consider what they are doing, consider consid-er whom It Is that they are sustaining 'n this un-Amorlcan move. If they do top to think, they will seo that they re drawing their Inspiration from the pribuno. that the spite, hatred and revengeful re-vengeful thoughts of two unprincipled unprinci-pled political scalawags, Tom Kearns nd Frank J. Cannon, Is the only foundation for tho party to which thoy aro pinning their faith; that, according ac-cording to tho confessions of these men themselves through the columns of their organ, the defeat and overthrow over-throw of the Republican party Is the paramount Issue with them. Republicans should stop to consider, os thoy always have considered, that tho Republican party is as much a party of tho peoplo In municipal matters mat-ters as in national affairs. Republican Republi-can principles and Republican ideas of honest upright government aro as much behind a mayor of a city as they to behind a president of tho United States. Republicans havo always hesitated hes-itated to tako a chnnco In putting In nowor nn Irresponsible man or set of men; they prefer that officeholders shall havo tho backing of somo strong nolltlcai organization, of tho Republican Republi-can party. Tho election of William J. f-v'ich and tho balance of tho Republican Repub-lican ticket next Tuesday, means that for tho noxt two year3 the Republican party, with Its long history of honest, upright nnd loynl administration, will bo responsible for tho conduct of municipal mu-nicipal affairs. Tho election of Ezra Thompson nnd his following means that for two long years tho affairs of tho city will be In the hands of a set of mon absolutely without principle, without ono single policy or pledge for which anybody Is responsible. What honest Ropubllcnn, with ono little lit-tle spark of party prldo loft, can hesitate hes-itate for a moment when ho enters tho voting booth next Tuesday? Ho cmnot, ho will put his "X" undor the stars and stripes nnd let It go at that. If tho "American" pnrty Is pledged to anything. It Is certainly pledged to "top negotiations now ponding for a greater water supply; If thero is anything any-thing In their promises, they nro bound by those promises to change tho condition of our public schools, n condition which every citizen of Salt Lake, be ho black or white, Mormon or Gentile, rich or poor, has every reason rea-son to bo proud of; if "American" candidates aro bound by tho utterances utter-ances of their organ, as they aro pre sumed to bo, then thoy aro uounu 10 U30 their official position, if elected, to emphasize and attest tho Infamouf slanders nnd lies which tho Tribune and Its cdltor-ln-chler aro circulating about Utah and Salt Lako City; If the "American" candlnntes aro elected ind do what they say ought to be done, then, Indeed, can we all say: "We are ashamed of Salt Lake." Tho Thompson push aro asking odd3 now in their betting, and when th odds aro offered, no matter what, they want to first go out and see n man and never find him. Vote for Wm. J. Lynch and tho entire en-tire Republican ticket next Tuesdny and put the Republican party on record rec-ord with a pledge for an adequate water Biipply and an honest and efficient effi-cient administration. Remiblicans should remember noxt Tuesday that It is necessary to elect the entire ticket In order to make thf Republican party responsible and set at rest the minds of the people. Voto the Republican ticket straight Veto It from top to bottom and back to the top again. Give Will Lynch a chance to show what tho Republican party is made of. Don't vote for Lynch next Tuesday unless you can give him a solid council, coun-cil, or at lenst a majority of that council, to back him In his administration. adminis-tration. Make tho head of tho ticket with his party back of him responsible responsi-ble for tho proper administration o' the affairs of the city. That you may havo a party, however, that is responsible respon-sible and that lias a reputation at stnko, wo advise you to vote tho Republican Re-publican ticket straight. Don't scratch, It's bad manners. It is not only bod manners, but bad politics. pol-itics. Voto tho ticket straight. Tho Horald claims the election of ATorrls, the Tribune says thero 1p "Othlng doing but' Thomnson, while Truth clnlms that Lynch has a walk-, nway. Tho News is standing neutrl is It wore.
