The owner of the Tribune knows that he was elected to the United States senate by the most flagrant kind of fraud and that he was directly responsible for that fraud. So many reprehensible and questionable acts of the senator, both In his public and private capacities have become known to the public that no surprise is manifested that his personal organ should look with disfavor on any one who shows that he is actuated by motives of integrity. THE' public have been informed through the Tribune that the Herald did valiant work for the Democratic This is news to the ticket last fall. public generally and particularly to the members of the Democratic party. It is a matter of common knowledge that the Herald is controlled and its policy directed by the same crowd as controls the Tribune. These compliments paid to each other by the two rival (?) sheets is truly edifying, but the policy is a little too thin. Everybody can see through it without the aid of glasses. d THE Republicans of the city council complain that the mayor insulted their intelligence.

Mr. Jackson has lived in this city n fourteen years. IIo has been to all classes during this time. He began newspaper work hero on the Tribuno when it was a newspaper. IIo served as a deputy recorder In tho time of Charlie Stanton and was regarded as a competent man. IIo served a term in the legislature, and because he, with ton others, did not vote to elect a certain man United States senator, he was condemned by some and Among those applauded by others. who approved of his actions in that riiatter was tho Salt Lake Tribune. Jackson is a member of tho great fraternity known as the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. He has been honored by that organization by being selected as tho presiding officer of the lodgo to which he belongs, a place he now holds. Tho encampment of which he is a member unanimously voted to Tho elect him Its Junior Warden. chief of the uniformed degree of the organization, recognizing his fitness and ability, his moral standing in the community and tho state, on the first of the present year, selected him as his chief of staff. Ho is a member of Is it not tho Degree of Rcbekah. strange that Jackson should be permitted to mingle with the men and tho women of that immenso benevolent association ; to be chosen to enjoy honors and distinctions among them, if he is such a man as the Tribune and the Telegram would mako him out to bo? Jackson is assistant secretary of the state Democratic committee. lie was appointed to that place by Frank J. Cannon. Does the Tribune believe that Frank J. Cannon would appoint a man without character to such a place? During the campaign two years ago, when Secretary Daly was at home suffering from the result of injuries received by a bad fall, and Senator Sannon was sick, Jackson ran the business of tho committee and the speakers, former Senator Rawlins, Judge Powers, Congressman King, Major Richard W. Young, candidate for tho Supreme bench, and others who might be mentioned, applauded his labors in that capacity. Is it to be presumed that such men would recognize a man in that position whose standing in the community could be questioned? Jackson is a member of the city committee of his party. He was chosen, almost by acclamation, by the convention in the Second Precinct (and by the way, the Second Precinct does not embrace the red-ligdistrict), which convention was made up of the men and women, the citizenship of that who aro all re- political 2000 well-know- ex-Senat- or ht sub-divisio- n, Sb&rp Goal 6o., OFFICE, 73 SOUTH MAIN STREET.

Jackson was chairman of tho committee on resolutions of the last convention of tho party and wroto the platform which carried the organization to victory at tho election. Would tho Democratic convention have permitted him to hold that place had he been a person without character? Truth tells the people of this city that tho reason tho fight Is being made on Jackson is bccauso lie has dared to como out and fight Tom Kearns and his crlmo-staincally, Statute of Limitations Heath. This battle on Jackson is being made, not because Jackson Is unfit for tho place, or bccauso ho is incapable of filling it, but bccauso Tom Kearns and Perry Ileath want him downed. T was not always thus. Time was when Tom Kearns crooked the knee to Jackson: when ho asked favors of Jackson; when he received them. It was Jackson who wrote the speech that Tom Kearns delivered, or murdered, when he presented, on behalf of the people, to William J. Bryan the silver cup at Saltair; it was Jackson who nrfnted the speech In both morning dallies as it was written; not as delivered, and saved the dummy from being mado the laughing stock of tho entire community. This attack is his reward for that work. Jackson has stood by tho Democratic party In' this city when the days were dark and gloomy. With a few others ho has helped to take it from tho slough of despair and set Its feet on a rock. If ever a man deserved something at the hands of his party, he does. Tho Democrats In tho council will do well to continue to stand by him, because no man ought to be Immolated by the carpet-baggincrowd that seeks to dictate the Republican nolitlcs of this state; to debauch It; to degrade it. If. Jackson is turned down successfully in this fight. It Is a victory for Kearns and Heath over, not only Jackkson. but the decent element of the Republican party. There Is no question as to Jackson's competency; Health Commissioner Stewart has admitted this In the meeting of the Board of Health. There Is no Question as to his Integrity. He should be confirmed. We hope tho d g council will confirm him and rebuke this gang who are slinging mud under the protection of citizen, a councilman, etc. Neither the Tribune nor the Telegram dare come out In the open and assail Jackson, Jut they must needs fight from behind cover. . o The Shepard Co., Com.
