Show WHAT MIlKK (Ol l.ll UK AHHKI). The call for a meeting of the central eommillee. of the peoples' party is the latest development of tho stirring political politi-cal situation that is now agitating this city. The call states that tho meeting, (or rather meetings for both tho Salt Lake county and the territorial committee commit-tee are summoned to meet,) is for the purpose of considering tha advisability of disbanding the party. What more could be asked by those who are demanding more evidence of the sincerity of the members of the peoples' peo-ples' party! is there anyone wbo doubts that tho party will bu disbanded unless the liberals should again amalgamate in the interim? We think not. There are number of men w ho are still clinging cling-ing to the liberal party who. have said that they only wanted tho peoples' party to disband. The latter has not asked the liberal party to disband, but is showing its purpose by preparing to go out in advance. Some of our astute politicians should scratch their heads and think over this matter. They must come to a platform of consistency some time and they ought to do so whiles they cau yet climb up gracefully. Thu people's party shows in thu contemplated step that it knows the time to be ripe and the harvest inevitable. in-evitable. It knows that the liberal rally is a hopeless ellort aud is spiking its own guns in the very face of lis old enemy. J nut what our liberal frieuds are going to tight in the future we do not understand, but wu hate bu idea that they will gut into their natural place, and prepare for service under new colors. Many will wait, no doubt, until the disbauding of the people's party shall have actually been effected, but they will then bo left in such a position posi-tion that they cannot frame a plausible excusu for attempting to maintain thu old orgaui.atiou. |
