Progress of tho Content for Organization on National Party Lines. One year ago last February a party of Weber county citizens, who had not forgot-leu forgot-leu the teachings of their earlier days in the khool of Eastern nollties, met together in Ihe city of Ogden and declared in favor of party division. 'Of that little gathering Col- j C. W. BENNETT.

That it in the sense of the territorial terri-torial central committee of the reople's party of Utah, that the party throughout the territory slionid dissolve and leave its members free to unite with the creat national parties according to their individual preferences. On the same date of the above meeting, a m eetinr was held of the Liberal party and the action of the Democratic and Republi-con Republi-con parties was condemned; another meeting meet-ing in June also passed resolutions to the eft'-ct that party division was a fatal mistake, mis-take, and in the resolutions passed at that meetintr one reads this clause: - This committer views with sincere rearret the drifting oft of a few Republicans on party lines, and look with confidence to their 6peedy retuta to the party that has made possible each advances ad-vances in the political, social and material progress pro-gress of Utah as have thus far been accomplished. accom-plished. Aeainst this resolution Mr. Arthur Brown protested. Many of the leading Gentiles of this city and the territory at large were willing and did accept the declaration of the dissolution disso-lution of the People's party in good faith. That resolution of dissolution has accomplished accom-plished just what it aimed to do. The People's Peo-ple's party has dissolved and members of that old-time political organization are now affiliating themselves with either one or the other of the two national parties. THE PROGRESS OP REPUBLICANISM. Not only in the organization, of a Republican Repub-lican territorial narty have these pioneers of political progress been beset with difficulties, diffi-culties, but in municipal elections in the larger cities of L'tah difficulties have been encountered which were more than discouraging. discour-aging. When the People's party dropped out of existence the Democratic party forthwith forth-with established itself and many of its great mass of voters left without a party immed-ately immed-ately Joined themselves to the Democratic party as the choice between that and the Liberal party, which had so bitterly fought them in years gone by. They knew nothing of tiieteachings of Republicanism and accepted ac-cepted anything rather than affiliate with Liberals. On the 24th of November, 1891, the Republican Repub-lican organization in the territory was recognized re-cognized by the national committee at Washington, D. C, and a resolution passed by the committee urging the cessation of local differences and unity in rescuing the territory from Democratic control. Since the recognition of the Republican party progress has been rapid and the future is bright indeed. Gains have been made m all cities where municipal elections have been held, and everywhere additions have been made to the Republican ranks. Take for comparison these cities, Salt Lake City, Logan, Provo. Smithfieid and Mt. Pleasant. In Salt Lake City the Republicans cast but 335 votes in the legislative election of 1891. In the municipal election last February the vote was 852. This is a most flattering gain. In Provo, 280 vots were cast in 1891; in February last the Rsnublicans cast 420. In Logan, against 22S cast in 1891, the Republicans Re-publicans polled 400 votes and carried their ticket through. In Smithoeld the party gained twenty-seven twenty-seven on tho legislative vote and elected the municipal ticket. In Mount Pleasant over 100 votes were gained and Republican officials placed in office. of-fice. It is easy to see that a ratio of gain all over the territory such as this would place the Republican party beyond the least doubt of detest at the coming fall election. . ' The Republican party in this territory has ' (Continued on page 2.) !nl Allan Miller, David II. Baldridge and Charles S. King were members, and many times since have they referred to that initiatory initia-tory stop in terms of the greatest satisfaction. satisfac-tion. As a result of that meeting, the Ogden $t,tti(7xrl, Frank J. Cannon, editor, at once Seclared in favor of the movement and announced an-nounced that hereafter it would advocate Republican doctrine. The impetus thus given to the movement was increased by the organization of a political club in Ogden, known at that time as the "Republican club of Weber county." A county central committee com-mittee was organized and the new party placed upon a firm footing in that vicinity. Today you may go where you will in Utah territory and you will not find harder workers work-ers nor more enthusiastic Republicans than the gentlemen of Weber county who shout for Benjamin Harrison and protected industries. in-dustries. TIIE WOKE IN 9ALT LAKE CITT. ' It was not until May, 1891, that the Republican Repub-lican of Salt Lake City made a united move to give the party a recognized position in this territory. Presidnnt Woodruff's manifesto mani-festo to the church covering the abolition of polygamy had been given the previous fall and the peace loving citizens of the community com-munity bad accepted it as final. Therefore, on the month above named, the Republicans of this city attempted to organize a Central Republican club, but the meeting was broken up by people who were not desirous of seeing see-ing Republicanism spring to life. On the i!0ili of the month, however, another meeting was held at the theater, and the following address (given in part) was sent out to the people of L'tah. ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE.

Caucusing; and Wire Fulliny ou the Isight Before the Convention,, The night before the convention was, generally gen-erally speaking, a quiet one so far as the delegates del-egates were coucerned. The early evening trains brought quite a number of out-of-town representatives, and by 8 o'clock the characteristic Harrison hat was to be seen at all the principal hotels and other popular resorts. During the early evening, however, the delegates strolled into the P.cpublican headquarters, head-quarters, shook hands with Colonel Sowers and reported the good work going ou in their respective localities. The boys were full of enthusiasm and prepared to eat a Democrat thre times a day. AT HEADQUARTERS Colonel Sells with his genial smile and white lawn tip greeted alL comers at the headquarters during the early hours, and passed around hunks of political wisdom to all who desired to partake. Judge Bennett and Judge Bartch were also on hand and smiled a welcome to all. Sara Kenyon was likewise present and wore a knowing look whenever the Bubject of delegate nomination nomina-tion was mentioned. Jim Devine dropped in for & little while to say "howdy" with the boys, and pick, up . any information that might bo lying around loose for want of a claimant.

On the second day of last September Septem-ber a territorial convention was held in this city to perfect the organization and elect a working and a territorial committee. Eighteen counties were represented, and the meeting was harmonious and progressive ou all deliberations. A declaration of principles princi-ples was then made, strictly in accordance with the platform of the national Republican party. Thirteen days later the Republican territorial terri-torial committee, appointed by this convention, conven-tion, met iu this city for the purpose of electing officers and an executive committee at )are. This was accomplished and those oflicials are now engaged In spreading protective pro-tective doctrine from one end of the territory terri-tory to the other. The history of tiic struggle of the representatives repre-sentatives of the pp.rty for recognition at the .Minneapolis National Republican convention, conven-tion, is still fresh in the reader's mind r.nd it is needless Vt more than call attention to it. The work of the Republican leaders toward the formation of a national party in Utah, and one such as would be able to c;pe with its old time antagonist, the Democratic party, par-ty, has been dillicult to say the least. I TUB SITL'ATIOX TO DATE i such as to uivo every man who has contributed con-tributed to that work courajre for renewed effort. The party is training strength in every city and hamlet in Utah. The Liberal torces are disintegrating, and the thoughtful thought-ful men of that party who begin to see that there is a new Utah, have come manfully forward and announced themselves as Re-.

These are the men whom the Republican party want in their midst, and during the uixt two months will gladly welcome everyone who believes, as do they, that the time "hits t last arrived when division ou national party lines is not only possible, but it is a grand success.

An adjournment was made until 12:30 today. , . The executive committee held a meeting at headquarters and were in session fully an hour and a half.
