Show people of Utah, the unwarrantable charges of church influence made by him, his newspaper and his followers. We denounce his action as not only hostile to the Republican party but also as an attack upon the people of Utah, and the progress which marks the civil and political institutions of the state. We deny the right, as we question the ability, of any person to revive the bitterness of the past. Every college and institution of learning, every school house in Utah, the good feeling and friendly relations between all classes of citizens of this peaceful and state, contradict the prosperous charges of the Tribune and the malicious and untruthful utterances of the platform of the new party attempted to be organized by the senior Senator. The majority of the constitutional convention- which framed our state constitution was composed of Republicans, and likewise of members of the dominant church in Utah. That constitution provided: The rights of conscience shall never be infringed. The state shall make no law respecting an establisn-men- t of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; no religious test shall be required as a qualification for any office cf public trust or for any vote at any election; nor shall any person be incompetent as a witness or juror on account of religious belief or the absence thereof. There shall be no union of church and state, nor shall any church dominate the state or interfere with its functions' Upon the provision of our constitution, the Republican party stands. , , ; H 'i - ; ,r i:' J:i i i i ri I : 1 ! i Republicans of Utah, do your duty. Stand by your party ticket. Stand by the party of prosperity, progress and equal rights, whose success insures the development of the natural resources and the upbuilding and maintenance of the home industries of our state. With malice toward none, with charity for all, seeking only to do right, and to accord to all Republicans alike the equal consideration to which they are entitled under party discipline and government, the committee confidently appeals to the rank and file of the party and asks them to say whether the disappointed ambition of one man is sufficient excuse for the attempt to defeat the grand old party of Lin- coln, Blaine, McKinley and Roosevelt. By order of the executive committee. WM. SPRY, Chairman. ALLEN T. SANFORD, Secretary. The weakness of the K. K. party was strikingly demonstrated by the Republican primaries Teusday night. There was a larger attendance at the primaries than ever before, and the interest was intense, but not a Kearns delegate was elected or came near being elected in any of the 92 districts in the county, and this in Salt Lake City, where the Gentiles are in the majority. The K. K. movement is fast becoming a howling farce. The convention to which the delegates were elected will convene in the Salt Lake theatne on Thursday morning. The first day will be devoted to nominating county offices, and the second to nominating legislative candidates. K. Ks. Stand For Personal Hate. (Continued From Page 3.)
