Show m - An Open letter. Salt Lake Cut, July 9, 1 892. Editor Tlmes. Sir Will y.u allow me place and space in your independent paper on this point. That is, i it right for tr city to k-p up tbe prison labor while oar married men of the city are ioia, snd is 't right for the prestnt city administration not to give married men work rather than to discharge them as fust as tay find them out, causing their wives and families to suffer on that account Is the w iutr not coming on? Will you let them starve? A 1 -1 1 , a . . . m we uoi nave 10 support lueni out 01 our taxes? I not the drunkard and gambler and the houses of ill-fame kept up by the roughs of the city out of the city work and money while onr marri d men are idle, with no inony to pay for groceries, . meat and c.-al? Aro ono and all t-j suffer on account of th-ir religion, and is it right to put the man who voted to work so that they may pay their back board bills, while our children child-ren cry for bread ? How lng will this bs j borne? Remember the wrong iu Homestead, Pa. Will men stand it to see their wives and children suffer, while there is plenty to do in our city? No, hemi! so i kevfk! If they go to the mormons and ask for vrk they have none for them either. What are the workiugmen to do? Can you not see trouble ahead? "Still watus run deep " Go you to the city hall today from 3 to 5 p.m., look at the faces of the men there, watch tha board bills filed agsinst them and learn the truth of the matter for yourselves. Are we as taxpayers to stand by and see this going- on, and see the cloud over our city? Are the Tuscaroras to let women and children suffer clause of vain political spite and strife? Remember ihere is a Lord in Israel and He will repay. Are not all of our' business men of all classes watching the cloud ? Is Mayor Baskin blind that he cannot 6ee it? If not, why not? Kupectfully, W. H. YouxG. |
