Show TltlUCNE CON rid DICTIONS AO A IV. So zealously aflcctcd is ths Tribune in the work of criticising and traducing (hose citizens who have declared In tavor of national politics in Llah that unwillingly it builds up a crude mai of contradictions, alligations so inhereut-iy inhereut-iy repugnant that w hen brought together togeth-er their want of allinity and logical relationship re-lationship is cinarly discernibl8. Its endeavors to recoup by way of amended amend-ed statements are ill-calculated for the purpose, as is shown in the following: "In one article we said that most of the men who had joined this movement were cither men who had always been doubtful in the pnst or new comers. In another article we said that the people outside understood the situation very well, aud these two statements The Ti:ji:s construes as inconsistent. There is uotiung inconsistent at all about them. In one case we spoke of public opinions on the outside. That has been crystallizing crystal-lizing for twenty years and it is fixed. " Tin: Times showed the glaring inconsistency incon-sistency of the Tribune in seeking to create a financial depression iu the iu-lei iu-lei cl of libei&lism by publishing as entitled en-titled to great weight, the letters of C6i tain very doubtful nou-residents, mea who nm-er saw Utah, said letters deprecating depre-cating the new movement as a suit precursor to a great depreciation uj real estate values; while at the sanie time and in the same breath, the Tribune Tri-bune reflects upon the competency 01 a certain factor of the now movemuntfon, the ground that they are "new-cJax-era." A- -'nBmrs'isVtWy Vt n '"AaA fk comer element, a class who have TWf i in Utah from one to five years, Sti charged with a courso of action that will prove adverse to real estate values; aud to prove that mw-comers men ' who havo had only a few years experi- 1 ence act without sufficient informa- 1 tion, tiio written testimony of men is ' given who have never in their lives I boon nearer than a thousand miles.
