This statement from such a source caused Preterson to ask: "How's that?" as he looked King over to satisfy himself the young man bad not vanished. "Why my understanding under-standing of tho .Savior is," resumed President Peterson, "is that he is to reign king of kings and lord of lords." The trse statement instantly convinced con-vinced Mr. King that he had gotten clear out of sight of the democratic idea of rulers. The faith of the republicans repub-licans of San Pete cannot be shaken. drew similar parallels with reference to crockery. His illustrations were most apt, aud he was showered with applause. The audience was ao well pleased with what they had heard that they cried fur mote, and wanted Mr. Critchlow to speak; but, as it was getting late, it was thought best to adjourn until the meeting two weeks from last night. The Third Pr-rlnot. The Sixteenth precinct schoolhotise was not large enough to accommodate the people who met last evening to hear the speakers at the republican rally. Kach window served as a frame to soveral eager upturned faces. Arthur Parsons was selected as chairman. chair-man. In a few remarks he gave his reasons for being in the republican party. Win. IialJcrston followed him with a brief history of the origin of the two parties, then began the discussion of, as he expressed it, "the much talked of and greatly misunderstood question of the tar. If," illustrating this argument with the history of the pearl button factories of Philadelphia and adjacent New Jersey towns. Several factories were in operation until lySt, when congress con-gress through error reduced the tariff on these buttons. In a few years the country was flooded with buttons of foreign manufacture, factories began to close, until eventually three-fourths three-fourths of the workmen had been discharged dis-charged and the remainder were work-ins; work-ins; on less than half what they had formerly received. The McKiuley bill placed the tariff as it was before US), and factories resumed work. As skilled labor was required it became necessary to hunt up the old employes, and it is interesting to note that all had resorted to common labor for a livelihood. They knew how to make buttons but knew uothing blse. Free trade was introduced by Calhoun. Cal-houn. The south had no manufacturing manufactur-ing industries could not manage them with slave labor. Cotton was their ffreat product. Thev wanted their lux- First I'r'Olnel Meotlns" It was an appreciative and discriminating discrimi-nating audience that assembled in the Exposition building last night to listen to republican orators give tho reasons for the faith that was in them. Hefore the regular evening's program was carried out, the chairman, lion. E. It. Critchlow, called the republican club to order for an informal meeting. The minutes of tho last regular meeting were read and approved, and the secretary secre-tary gave the pleasant bit of information informa-tion that twenty-eight names had been affixed to the roll sinca the meeting was held. That concluding the business of the club, Sam J. Kenyon was introduced. "Ladies and Gentlerucu; I feel constrained con-strained to congratulate you all and myself that they were all permitted to be governed under tho policy of the republican party. 1 am not here tonight at my own suggestion but because as a loyal subjuct of that splendid party I could not refuse to answer to the call of duty. As a republican it was not necessary neces-sary to offer any excuses for tho acts of his party and that was something his democratic friends could not say. W hen only a boy the grandest sentiment I was ever taught was that contained in an old republican battle song in Till which was that 'Uncle Sam was rich enough to give every man a farm.' I was born under the shadow of a great cotton factory, and the only people peo-ple my childhood knew were factory hands who used to work all day until t) o'clock at night. But that old soug had taken such a firm hold on the Kenyon Ken-yon family "that the farms belonged to the people instead of the speculators that my lather moved west aud invested the savings of fifteen years in eighty acres of Wisconsin laud. That was in 'oil, and my recollection of the good old democratic era of free trade in that time is very vivid, when President Buchanan Bu-chanan in his message said not a pieca of real estate had been sold that ynt by any other than a sheriff. My mother used to pray in those days that a political poli-tical party might be raised up which would benelit American laoor and when the republican party was born it seemed an answer to mother's prayer, and I joined it, a thing I have never regretted. regret-ted. There is uovvouly one question dividing tho democratic and republican parties and that is the tariff. Humanity Human-ity is looking for tho best method to servo individual ends. Tho same rule that makes England the grct.tesl commercial com-mercial nation in the world will not apply ap-ply here. Hut even English Btipreitticy was built up by a protective tariff that amounted to prohibition of importations. importa-tions. Conditions differ here. We have every variety of soil and cli1 mate aud can produce everything we need if we will only stimulate our industries by protecting them." Mr. Kenyon then depicted the poverty pov-erty pi to, ailing under tho Walker tariff tar-iff of 'itl when with 8-HI!1. 01 10,000 expended ex-pended to carry on tho Mexican war ami tho hundreds of millions obtained from tho mines of California mi of it was sent to England to bring the products pro-ducts that wh could not nianutacture but all of which are now made at home through th protection accorded by the Morrill bill of v.l. ' Mr. Gladstone and Mr. I'.iaine hail dihcitss-d the tariff. All who had read tho articles of thoso two eminent men und w ho were fair, acknowledged that the man from Maine had exploded the "grand old man's" free trade fallacies. uries and all they could not produco themselves cheaply as possible. If the north establishes great industries indus-tries it would give them it prestige not def-ircd by tho south. So free-trade is really an ally of slave labor. The republican party is a party of principal. The democratic party will ally itself with anyone who will assure thein of victory. A case in point is tho Beimel school iaw in Wisconsin. This law required that all children should attend an English speaking school a portion of every year. The foreign element objected to this aud tho democrats sided witb'theni and defeated de-feated the republicans at tho election. But the time will come w lion the republicans re-publicans will sucuro American laws for their schools. Air. IJalderston closed his remarks with an earnest appeal to the young men of Utah to carefully consider the principles of both parties, and warned them that the success of the republican party meant prosperity and tho success of tho democratic party meant disaster. James Deviue tneu addressed the meeting. Speaking of bounties, he said England Eng-land advertised for bills to carry her mails. Although France and Germany gave loner bids than her own seamen, she gave the contracts to her own people. Tho democrats complain of the policy of giving bounties. England herself gives ifo.Ooo.niiO in bounties to steamship lines, tho United States but ijwo.ooo. This clearly shows why England Eng-land has tho finest mariuo service in the world. That millionaires are made through the principle of protection as advocated by the republicans is falso. Out of the fifty leading millionaires but ono has made his money out of a protective industry. in-dustry. Add tho next lifly out of whole number not mora than five will be found who made their money out of protected' industries. This is necessarily neces-sarily a campaign of education and I am convinced that if the 111011 of Utah will study both sides carefully tho majority ma-jority w ill become republicans. Mr. Trcweek and J. ('. Sandberg made a few remarks. Owing to lateness late-ness of the hour they wero necessarily brief. Fourth Prerlnot. Tho rally at the Fourth precinct this evening promises to be one of tho most interesting that have occurred under tho present campaign. Tho talent is well concentrated, and Messrs. Devine, Sharp, Sandberg and Wells will serve a feast ef oratory such as has rarely been listeneileto bv the voters of Zion. At tho Sixth ward school house another feast is in store, and the invitation in-vitation promises to be responded to by a largo number, independent of past or present affiliations. Filth rroolnrt Meeting. There will bo a rousing republican rally at the Eleventh Ward meeting house Thursday evening at which tho living issues will be discussed by such eminent speakers as Judge Bennett, James Sharp. John M. 'Anna, J. C. Sandberg and Frauk B. Stephens. All aro invited. Meeting at Fleanant Grove, The republican meeting at Pleasant Grove Saturday night wns addressed by John Morgan and D. Harrington of Salt Lake City. About thirty men joined the canigaign club of which Frank Pitrcc is president. I'rrstd-nt f'etr!n' Reply. Will King is one of the young men of Provo who is widely known in Utah county. Ho possesses a democratic foot and like others of his class is fishing fish-ing for converts. Mr. King recently approached President Peterson of San Pete valley aud proceeded to impress We are told that the so-called "robber 'tariff" is making tho rich richer and the poor poorer and that the protected manufacturers ate making protits of 00 per cent per annum. If that is true don't it strike you as a little strange that with money in the east only worth eight per cent at most, that there should bo so few people who cared to go into the protected manufactures manufac-tures for whose benelit tho "robber tar-I tar-I iff" was enacted. These enormous prolils you hear about go to the wage earner uot to tho capitalist. Wages depend de-pend on tho supply and demand of labor. la-bor. 'That is ono of the democratic orators best arguments. But suppose the protected industries are ru'tiedin this country and the protected laborers thrown on tho market lo compete with thoso working in the unprotected indus-trie, indus-trie, won't the wages of those men be lowered? By the republican policy tho eleven million man working in the unprotected un-protected industries aro saved from the competition of tho two million working iu tho protected ones. Our protective tariff for a quarter of a century cen-tury has made this country the wealthiest wealth-iest nation in tho world, but tonight wo may feel thankful that in every instance in-stance that the democrats had tried to breakdown the republican system of protection in this country they had been prevented by a solid phalanx of republican votes." Sir. Kenyon's argument hold his listeners lis-teners attention for fully an hour, aud his exposition of the tariff question was cogent as well as convincing. At its conclusion he was applauded and complimented. com-plimented. Leonard G. Hardy, who was the last speaker, confined his attention to the items of sugar and crockery, aud showed how, by tho republican system, the price of sugar bad been reduced by $2 a hundred pounds. "If tho people are being robbed of $7.000,o)( a year on tin plate, they are getting that i IROoo.Ooo more, on sugar. The SHOO acres which Utah has planted in stttrar beets will bring her farmers $:i. 000,000; whereas, if they wero devoted to grain, the best that could be realized on them would be $15,000. and this gain to the ; territory is brought about by the infamous in-famous (?) republican houutv of 2 cents a pound on sugar."
