said that not anticipating being called to the chair he had no speech ready He had already received great honors and would prefer the speaking be done by someone some-one else He made several witty allusions allu-sions however which were received with laughter and applause J N Pike was next called for He said he had not come prepared to respond re-spond to any such a call in fact he did not deem it vise to say very much on such occasions the presentit was a time for action and the less said the better He alluded to a sheet called the Salt Lake Tribune a more vile contemptible con-temptible and malicious organ than which never existed in a free country It had been endeavoring for years and more especially within the lastiew days to worK up a collision between the people peo-ple of Utah andthe government it was the deadly enemy to the best interests of Utah its whole career had been one of reckless abuse and slander and it has cared nothing how much injury it wrought around it so that its own sel fish purposes were served He did not propose to sustain or snpport anyone whose interests were identical with the vile publication H G Park was the next speaker In the small country town in Scotland in which he was born was a good old dominie who was a great admirer William Wallace A number of the pupils of the old gentleman one day presented him with a copy of Jane Porters celebrated work the Scottish Chiefs He was much affected and being called on for a speech he said I do not wish to make very many remark re-mark at this time but thin much I will say that tocast reflections on the character char-acter of William Wallace is worse than original sin1 So also in the case mentioned men-tioned by Mr Pike any action tend ing to benefit the degraded and miserable miser-able set who own and manage the Tribune is worse than original sin Mr Deanwas called for andtn a neat little speech called the attention of the gentlcment present to the lethargy displayed dis-played by members of the Peoples Party at the recently held primaries and hoped that more Interest would be taken by them in all political movements move-ments in which the people are interested It is our duty and our tight to see that the rneu we want in office are put there and we havea voice in sayingwho shall serve us in all official capacities 0 H Pettit waataimilarly situated with the othersHe had not come here to make a speech but rather to act We present quite an anomaly in this country today both religiously and politically Of the former it was not necessary at the present time to say anything but perhaps a few words on the latter would fbe appropriate Some of our best and most able men are unable ito be present and look after our interests consequent ly we must look after our own and their as well = we are forced to carry on the wprk that could be better attended to by other if thpy were hero We may not all be blessed with a great amount of wisdom or brains either for that matter but it isoar pleasure and duty underthe circumstances to do the best we ban Referring the many pohti cal parties ye have several in our niid t Theraislhe Peoples the Liberals Lib-erals the Republican the Young Democracy De-mocracy and the old Democracy Per haps someone wtJuIdJje kind enough to explain why there should be any hplit between the Young and Democracy why thefathcr < and son should fail tag t-ag ee We have avfery Liberal party hereit is i very liberal so liberal lib-eral thst they would deprive is of all the worry and trouble necessarily attending the holding hold-ing of primaries conventions and elec I lions and take the entire responsibility upon their own fchptilders we would but let them d < J it For one however r nm not willing to let the Liberal bur den themselves with our responsibilities and shall not if I can help it J II Parry fully endorsed the sentiments senti-ments of those who hid preceded him o Let Ira carry out the ideas that have been advanced and there is little doubt ihat we would be benefited We are here representing only ourelve but the people who by their votes have elected us to the position of delegates Etcrral vigilance u the price of Liberty Lib-erty Lotus then be vigilant in de fending the rights at present held and so with a vaew to regaining those we have lost f i Joseph F Simmons thought some of the previous speakers had been somewhat some-what on the fence not in sympathy perhaps but in action The time hat arrived when the member of the Peo pies party honld woke up and takes a greater interest in political matters the young especially that we may be jl able to carry out those principles we Know to be just and proper and the best for the commonwealth We should notforget the duty we o1othote whomjWe represent andwe should eq deavorRTalways sustain for office mew ofrvIrtuiBand iiitegrityfrtrne to the p m lple1i we Jtate espoused and who would always b found wiMing defend our rights We should accord to all who differ from us all the rights they are entitled to enjoy We should become be-come better acquainted with the laws and customs of the country Some day we may hold a higher position politically politic-ally than at present and it behqovfes us to be prepared for the responsibility attaching at-taching to it He hoped none would do anything that woulu tend to jeopardize the few remaining rights we possess John Siddoway evidently somewhat anxious asjothcfate of the committee Onhomihatiohs who had now been absent ab-sent nearly an hour moved that a com nii tc aprloinfed to ascertain their whereabouts It did not receive a second H P Richards responded to repeated calls in a short address It was our duty to guard the rights and privileges of t osewl1o had elected us as delegates not only in this meeting but also at the polls Every man within sound of my voice no matter how humble his station Las his influence and be it ever so small it should be wieldedin favor of the interest of the people and he hoped it would be so used We are in a positiou where it is important that we should be wide awakeand he hoped that every effort would be mndq to secure a full attendance at the polls at the corning corn-ing election r T G Webber was next loudly called for He said one of the previous speakers speak-ers had inquired as to the difference between be-tween the Old and Young Democracy As he understood it one was open and avowed other was underhanded ami worked on thQ stabintheback principle We should be zealous in guarding our rights and privileges guaranteed guar-anteed us under the Constitution Henry Wallace also made a few remark markS in reference to school trustees and district schools i The jjeople of his district had been caught napping in reference ref-erence to the flection Of school trustees They had sufficient strength to carry the election but the Peoples voters had got to the pollsajtrthe meeting adjourned ad-journed This lliTiflhe < necessity for ever being vigilantand watchful John Siddoway was likesomoof the others who had spoken if he attempted to make a political speech he would doubtless fait he did not mean to say however that the othor speecheshad been failures We have had some religion re-ligion and a little politics Much had been said but little in regard to th subject sub-ject under consideration He referred to the recent election of President Cleveland whom he designated as the dak hors and said he believed there wereSJahy men In tjie comamnity capable of satisfactorily filling xaany offices who had notyet been brought forward In the past a great many men had been elected to offices whose services had not been as acceptable as they should have been We should profit pro-fit by theexperiences
