Show OLD TRICK WILL BE WARMED OVER Schemes of the Party of Deception Decep-tion Hate and Fraud MANE ELECTIONS TO BE USED AS A BAIT REPUBLICANS MOST ANXIOUS TO CAPTURE UTAH It Than Open Secret That the Barrels in the East Will he Tapped to the Fullest Extent with the Idea of Placing Utah in the Republican Column Clevelands Action on the Tariff Bill Washington Sept 2SpeclalJThe in the good people of Utah reposing peaceful valleys of the fair territory need not feel any great alarm if In a I short time a horrible sound should come rushing to their ears from the great northeast I will be a combination combina-tion of the crackedvoice ebullitions of Thomas Bluster Reed and the untrained untrain-ed roar of the unquenchable Boutelle mingled with some other equally discordant dis-cordant sounds I will be horrible it is true but then it will not be half so bad as at will sound The game that is to bring forth this curious sound in the end is an old one crous From its inception the Republican of bluff party has been an aggregation pure and simple and not one of its presidential or congressional campaigns has been carried on without attempt making it believe ing to fool the country by lieve that the returns from Maine indicated in-dicated the subsequent victory for their forces I wH be the same this year In Maine the elections are always helda little earlier than in other parts of the Union and the Republican leaders lead-ers then begin to howl that victory is assured and endeavor to bluff the people peo-ple into believing that they are the sure winners in order to catch the floating voters that always wish to be on the winning side So there will be nothing really serious in the yell from the upper up-per country Like classical music Its a danged sight better than it sounds Utahs Election I In the election that will follow the holding of the constitutional convention conven-tion Utah will be very important because be-cause party leaders are beginning to make their campaign with the idea of capturing states rather than majority in Congress The Populists according to all reports that come in from the country are far from being dead The better element is endeavoring to reorganize reor-ganize the party and place at the head leaders without the visionary ideas of those who thus far have come Into power I is felt that this is a time of political unrest and there is a large element that do not care to align themselves them-selves with either of the old parties Therefore it is seen that there is a possibility of the next electoral college col-lege not giving a majority to any candidate candi-date and that the election will be thrown into the House of Representatives Representa-tives In electing the president in the House each state will have a vote and Utah would rank just as well in the list as New York Therefore her one representative is highly important and the Republicans will spare no pains to capture the state I is an open secret that they will send a great deal of money into Utah for this and the next campaign They are backed by the tariff trusts who want their tools in power again and believe they can afford to spend a great deal of the cash that has been given them under the nefarious protective pro-tective system in order to perpetuate their grip on the throats of the people No amount of activity on the part of the Republican machine and no lavishness lavish-ness of money need surprise the people for this is one of the things that will follow in the wake of the dishonest pro tection that has been extended by the Republican part for so many years The Presidents Action As soon as the people begin to consider con-sider well the action of President Cleveland in allowing the tariff bill to become a law without his signature to it they begin to see that this was logical By all means the people must be impressed say the leaders with the fact that this bill does not represent repre-sent the full measure of the reform the Democrats have set out to give them and that the party intends to proceed along the same lines until every discriminating dis-criminating duty is wiped off the statute stat-ute books I the president had signed the bill the Republicans would immediately have gone to the voters with the misstatement mis-statement that this was a fulfillment of Democratic doctrine and would have enlarged on the points in the bill that no Democrat will endorse that is those parts placed in it because of the opposition of the conservatives and the necessity of securing the votes of fortythree senators Now they cannot say that the Democrats endorse it further fur-ther than to hold that it is a good measure meas-ure so far as i lessens the burdens of taxation and the party will make it a great deal better The strongest fight to be made against any Democrat In the coming canvass will be that against William L Wilson The hosts of the g o p and their trust partners have determined deter-mined to make an example of him asa as-a warning to all those who would endeavor en-deavor to make them desist from their shameless robbery They want to settle set-tle it once and for all that no presumptuous pre-sumptuous patriot can tamper with what they consider their vested right to pillage under the forms of law and remain in public life Chairman publc lfe Faulkner Faulk-ner however says that a good fight will be made by the Democrats as a matter of principle to prove that this is still a government in which the people peo-ple are supreme and he has strong hopes that the gallant leader of the tariff reform fight will be pulled through with a good majority Only a few belated congressmen are now in the city and these have stopped for the gayeties of the Pythian encampment en-campment The rest have gone off to look after their fences and the districts dis-tricts that have already been reached are being whooped up with a vim Those that are here will be gone by the end of the week and the national cap ital will have a rest for a month while the country must bear the heretofore pentup streams of political oratory |
