Show to that sort of thing then God help the people of Utah. it has been intimated that an honored citizen of Pro vo has formed a political alliance with this power. Ido not know that this is true, and I have no objections to his political aspirations, but I have objections to such political' combinations. He should, not be recreant to the high principles which guided the life of his father, who, as a Democrat, was rockribbed in bis service to the people. He professes, I have no doubt, sincerely, to to a messenger of the Almighty an evangel of parity in life. Perhaps he intends to make a vicarous atonement for the Republican party after the example of a higher and better atonement by Him whom he is following by being crucified between two thieves in November. ft ft Interest in the Republican count conventioflto be held next Monday and Tuesday, will center on the ten nominations for the lower house of the leg islature and the two nominations for the state senate.
