Show PREPARING FOR 1900 I Time was when the local organ or Republicanism that local affiliation with Hannas organization was giving aid and encouragement to the worst enemies of this republic I wanted McKinley men kept out of local offices on the ground that every gain made by the followers of Arthur Brown was an encouragement to the goldbugs to continue thejr enslavement of the people peo-ple In endorsed the address of the silver Republicans of the state issued in April 1S9S in vhich some 14000 cx Republicans or silver Republicans as they were called made this official declaration We ointt the fact that the national na-tional Bepublican party of the United Unit-ed States has abandoned the cause of bimetallism and that local adherence adher-ence t the national Kepublican organization or-ganization i affiliating with gold monometallism and oppression of the people Since then the organ has seen a great light Six months after its endorsement endorse-ment of that sentiment it sanctioned e encouraged the disbanding of the silver Republican organization and endorsed en-dorsed a platform which renewed the allegiance of Utah Republicans to the national Republican organization One year from the time that address wa made to the people of this state our neighbor suddenly discovered that the buxom silver lass with whom it has been sitting upof nights was a corpse Then the widely known editor wept down to Washington to make arrangements arrange-ments with Undertaker Hanna and Sexton Gage for her burial There was a time when the Republican Repub-lican organ claimed that every indorse ment of a regular Republican ticket or a candidate who tood upon the St Louis platform was a black eye to bimetallism and an act of treason to the people of the west What a change I has become n goldbug of the lowest type one who knows the truth but follows error who but bows before has preached the gospel before be-fore the altar of the golden calf It is trying now to form in this city in this municipal campaign the nucleus of a goldbug organization for the state whose support will be given to McKinley McKin-ley the known enemy of bimetallism and to Hanna the arch conspirator isainst the liberties of the people and their troverelgnty In this it hopes to succeed from all appearances more than it hopes for in the city election |
