audience Gov lWells presided over the meeting The speakers were George Sutherland and Tom Fitch Mr Sutherlands address was a most able effort abounding In neat hits and apt anecdotes as well ns sound argument and he was given a truly flattering reception Mr Fitch as usual was greeted with a terrific j outburst of applause when he ad i vanced He was In exceptionally good form and began by expressing a dc plre to make the best speech of his iffe He didmake a truly magnlllccnc boratlon his arraignment of Bryan and S4hc Democratic party being quite the best example of bitter Irony and biting sarcasm that has been heard during the campaign His peroration was a sublime flight the words being selected select-ed as if I by one Inspired and delivered with nil the eloquence of this past master of oratory The sonorous pe f nods of the speech throughout completely com-pletely captivated the great assemblage assem-blage and Mr Fitchs address was given giv-en an almost continuous ovation the wild burst applause at the end lastIng last-Ing for the better part of a minute There were a few men and boys distributed dis-tributed at advantageous points In the audience only too evidently there for the purpose of annoying Mr Fitch but he silenced them early In the course of his argument Many Democrats I1 were observed In the house and most of them displayed the same lively Interest In-terest In the addresses as the Republicans Repub-licans The meeting as a whole could scarce j ly have been a more successful one and It Is taken by Republicans as an augury of a triumphant victory at the polls next monjh GOV WELLS PRESIDES r Given a Warm Welcome by the Large Audience Gov Wells on rising to open the meetinG was given a most enthuslaslc reception He presented the first speaker speak-er Mr Sutherland saying In part un there are any present this evening even-ing who were present at the convention In PrOvo when our candidate l for Con bet was nominated they will remember remem-ber the enthusiasm which his name evoked After having completed a campaign tour of the mining camps and the southern counties of this State I desire to testify Ito this audience tonight to-night that WP made no mistake when we nominated for CongrcKs the Hon George Sutherland Applause He Is i known and beloved In the Tlntlc mining mi-ning district because of his msldonce there during the early history of that camp He Is well known and llkoil in all the mining districts through frequent fre-quent visits he has made on mining and legal business He is I well and favorably known in Utah county because be-cause of his long residence there from hoi hood to early manhood In the cltloi of Prov and Spijngvlllc and all through the southern portion of the State men and women came to him at the end of meetings to shake hands wlth him and to claim that they were schoolmates of his I think I never saw a man who had as many sohool mates ns tho Hon George Sutherland and the people everywhere seem proud to support him because they rccognlxc In him a stalwart rspcctcd able honest hon-est son of Utah It Is my own candid opinion that Mr Sutherland will run very far ahead of hit ticket and that his calling and election are perfectly certain It Is therefore with great pleasure that I present to you one of the speakers of the evening the lion 5 Georgu Sutherland our next Congressman Congress-man ME SUTHERLANDS SPEECH Deals With Silver Question Showing I Democratic Insincerity J Mr Sutherland was greeted with j prolonged applause and cheers from all parts of the house and In the course of hIs remarks was several times itcr I ruptcd by similar demonstrations He I spoke princIpally upon the silver question ques-tion saying It had been charged the Democrats that Republicans dare not L llscusa that IBSUC I 1 In thlw campaign ilr Sutherland spoke In part as follows fol-lows lowsIn In what shall say to you this evening even-ing I desire lo have It distinctly un ucrstood that 1 have no quarrel with any Individual Democrat I recognize the fact that individual Democrats areas just are-as honest aa individual Republl I cans i believe that individual Demo craLJi an well 03 Individual Republi cans desire to accomplish the best good for the people of the United States We are all American citizens and the fact that W c disagree about politics does not prevent 1 our agreeing about other matters As you walk down the street In Salt Lake City you cannot tell from the appearance of an Individual whether he Is a Republican or a Democrat Indeed when you jjhall walk down the street the morning after I election and meet a man you will not I be able to tell whether he is a Democrat Demo-crat or just recovering from a spell of sickness Applause Mr Sutherland then enumerated the I numerous pnramount Issues which the Democratic party has this year and said he was one of the 20000 Republicans I publicans In Utah who In 189C sup portccl the national Democratic ticket because silver was the paramount Issue of the Democratic party then He therefore felt he had a right to discuss the question He first told of how silver sil-ver came to be an Issue at all In this campaign that Is how the plank pertaining per-taining to it came to be In the Democratic Demo-cratic platform a bare majority of one vote of the committee on platform plat-form which met at Kansas City and said the only waythe discussion of the plank was kept off the door of the convention was by the agreement that imperialism should be made the paramount para-mount Issue of the campaign Continuing Contin-uing Mr Sutherland said l BRYAN l IGNORES SILVER I Have you heard of Mr Bryan mann king ma-nn arguments In favor of silver this year I have not He IIve3 within a stones throw figuratively speaking of Denver the capital of the great sil verproducing State of Colorado In 1S9C he found time to go there and to go to the other silver States and make speeches In 06 these Slates were not In danger This year he knows that all the Rocky mountain mining States arc in danger He knows that the State of Utah from his Information Is Hkclv to go Republican applause we know that it is certain to go Rcpubll l L I 1I 1I I 1 4i I 1 I 1I I 1 i r I i 5 Sutherland Had Mr Bryan Lived in tho Good Old Bible Days He Would Havo Been Stoned as a False Prophet can applause and cheers and yet Mr Bryan cannot spare a single hour to come to any of these States and tell the people that he has notchanged his mindupon thin question of silver Why docs he not do It He makes no speeches In favor or silver In the East because he knows he would alienate I Democratic voids In thajt section of I the country and If he came West and made silver speeches It would be reported re-ported In the East and he would lose Democratic votes Mr Bryan has become be-come a good deal more of a politician in 1DOO than he was In IMG The speaker thou fold of the interview Inter-view had with Mr Bryan by a reporter of the New York Herald In which Mr Bryan amsvcred all questions put to him except that which read Mr Bryan If you arc elected President of the United States will you favor the payment of the coinage obligations the United States lu silver to which Mr Bryan replied hI decline to be IntervIewed upon that subject And then Mr Sutherland said There is no doubt under heaven that the Democratic Dem-ocratic party If I It should be returned to power which It will not be will not pass a tfrcecolnage law I dont wish to deceive or mislead thlH audience the Republican party If eltclcd to power win not pass a freecoinage law Tho Republican party bus declared In favor of the gold standard pure and simple and the Republican part is in the habit of declaring exactly what II means to dorlw difference between the two parties however Is that the Republican party bus declared In fvor of the gold standard and means what It says while the Democratic parly hau declared In favor of the frec coinage of silver and does not mean what It says CHANGED CONDITIONS Mr Sutherland then showed how the silver question had been taken out of serious consideration in the United States outside of the Rocky mountain mining StaLtvvby the natural course of escnts by the mighty Increased production pro-duction of gold wlilch had given the same result anthw free coinage of silver sil-ver would have given lIe told of the prophecies of Mr Bryi as to what would follow under the operations of tho gold standard none of which had come true told how the railroads are taxed to Ci rr > the pioducls of

moved to New York and Intimated 0 that hud Mr Bryan lived In the good old Bible days he would have been stoned na a false prophet but said that in modern days they make such prophets proph-ets Democratic candidates which caused much laughter and applause I The speaker then took up the question I I ques-tion of expansion lie said In the first place we did not go to the Philippines I entirely of our own volition that we went there partly by accident that we did the only sensible thing under the I circumstances kept the Islands there was no question under the heavens but what we would continue to keep them that we would give the people more I liberty and a better government than I i they had ever enjoyed l and would continue con-tinue to expand our trade until every ship that wt > nt to those Islands would be filled with American goods manned by American sailors and floating the American flag I S Mr Sutherland closed his address with the following cheering words cheering for the Itupubllcan party oC UtahNow Now I cannot leave you without a word of good cheer There Is absolutely absolute-ly no question but that every county = that we have visited In this State Is going to give a Republican majority on the 6th day of November We know what we are talking about Our Democratic Dem-ocratic friends believe they are going to succeed in this election we know that 1 they are not Great applause HON THOMAS FITCH His Great Address to the Enthusiastic Enthusias-tic Throng Mr Fitch spoke In substance as follows fol-lows Mr Bryan Is experimental revolutionary rev-olutionary and reckless He mistakes his opinions for his principles and he determined to formulate his crude and undigested ideas Into law No advice I ad-vice no arguments no appeals of friend or foe can move him He Is I Infected In-fected with the antiwealth rabies of anarchy He Is obstinate In his purpose pur-pose to array = the poor against the rich and he does not consider or he cTk ARE 1 j w E I S Titch Is it Not Rather a Contest Between the Man Who Has a Job and the STan Who ia Afraid Ho Will Got a Job docs not care that In doing this he will the Indus also array the idle against trious and help thieves at the expense of honest men He appears to be Indifferent In-different of consequences lo others It o1i conse IK win only enhance his quence He Is Intoxicated to delirium with his own personality He Is drunk vllh himself He has the Bryan Jimjams Jim-jams The defeat of ISDrt did not crush him The defeat of 1000 will not end him afi Eastern Democratic leaders hope that It will He will say with the French king l who lost a battle Has God then forgotten all that I have done for him and with Imperturbable assurance as-surance he will make ready for 1001 for he takes himself seriously believes In himself utterly and no force known to nature can disturb bin good opinion of hlmsaf He Is the grandest charlatan charla-tan that ever appeared In American politic He Is the Cagllostro hla I century He has hypnotized the great I Democratic loaders Inlo RubJC < lIon to his will He has seized the conservative conserva-tive and dcvorous Dr Jekyll of Democracy Democ-racy and with the poison of wealth hatred he has transformed that outwardly out-wardly respectable practitioner into a malignant Mr Hyde who iu I dancing the davilB carmjiBnolejoydr all the land THE JACK CA1i AIn A-In the relgQoC onesof thq English kings a Kentish peasant named Jack u Cade organized formidable rebellion and attracted Ignorant mcnrto his standard by promising them all sorts of impossible things One of his most popular promises was that when he became king he would decree that every pint pot should hold a quart Mr Bryan appears to have assimilated assimi-lated the Tmk Cade Idea He promises each man tmch changes In currency and coinage laws as will give him higher prices for the things he has lo sell and lower prices for the things that he needs to buy His promises are as reasonable and consistent an If ho I agreed to give the fishermen on one side of the bay a perpetual low tide BO that I they can always dig clams and those upon the other side a perpetual high tide BO that they can always catch flounders He promises the consumers that they shall have the profits now taken by the middlemen lIe promises I the middlemen that they shall have the profits now taken by the trusts and before the campaign closes he may I promise the depositors In the savings banks that their dollars will be doubled 1 > y his election and Ite I may assure the bicyclists that when he shall occupy tho White Houuc every man will be able to seat himself upon his wheel and hold himself out at arms length by the slack of his own pantaloons Yet while I he thu runs the gamut of promises the Da Capo movement In his music ever carries him hack to his theme of I wealthhatred and wealthdeslructlon Ian I-an l he courseD around the country like inn i-nn enraged bull In the arena bowing to

there Is J a party In this land of which It can truthfully be said that It Is and for half a century has brcn 1 dominated by l Infiuencea which seek to ignore human rights It Is not the party which Mr Bryan opposes but It I Is the party which he leads There are many honest bravo patriotic patri-otic Democrats but the party as apolitical a-political organization deserves to bo tUlU1 to Hu trihbt n hstory It should If o f f f r ° I I I t 4 I 111 I i I 2fcjrcJi I i Mr Sutherland Addressing tho Noetlng 1 d > have die thirtyfive = years ago It can I never live long enough to rid Itself of Its record To borrow and adapt u simile from a great New England orator ora-tor let me say that In the Talmud the Jews have a story that Og King of Bashan lifted once a great rock to hurl it on the armies of Judah God hollowed hol-lowed It In the middle letting it slipover slip-over the giants neck there to rest while he 1Iedtr The Democratic party forty years ago lifted the power and the strength of Its mighty organization to hurl It against the slave and against the flag and God has hung Its record like a millstone about Its neck forevermore forever-more AN UNSAVORY CONTRAST The Nebraska politician who has picked up the gad that was stricken from the hands of Grover Cleveland and who with It Is trying = to drive and damn his ox team Into the White House endeavors to pose as a second I Lincoln Such a comparison would provoke our laughter If It did not excite ex-cite our wrath Lincoln the unselfish statesman compared with Bryan the selfseeking demagogue Lincoln whose every thought was for his country I coun-try compared with Bryan whose every I thought Is for himself I Lincoln compared with Bryan Why If Lincoln were alive and had Inadvertently Inadver-tently shaken hands with Bnan he would as was once said of Prescott I the historian and Walker the filibuster filibus-ter Immediately have called for soap and water and washed his hands thrice The coupling of names should be not Lincoln and Bryan but Crolcer and Bryan for Bryan performs for Crolcer the office which Wendell Phillips says was performed for Charles X by his l I valet When the exiled Icing wenl hunting and the path was muddy the valet fling himself down and Charles walked over him How clean the king kept Is not known the valet got very muddy ddyRIGIITS RIGHTS OF CITIZENSHIP r MI Bryanmakes no distinction between be-tween the rights which pertain to citizenship citi-zenship of the United States and the i privileges which pertain to citizenship 1 of a State I or an organized Territory The rights of citizenship of the United States consist principally of the right to protection against any = claim of allegiance al-legiance made by a foreign power and the right of protection to life and property prop-erty and these are natural rights which exist tinder all civilized governments govern-ments without any written constitution I or written laws These rights every Filipino was entitled to upon the day I that the treaty of Paris wan ratllled But the privileges of citizenship such I as voting representation local government gov-ernment civil courts trial by = Jury and habeas corpus can only be obtained by the people of a newlyacquired territory terri-tory by act of Coilgress and Congress car In Its discretion grant or withhold with-hold some or all of these privileges as It may deem expedient Mr Bryan when asked to explain the Democratic attitude on this point avoids a direct answer and falls back upon his rhetorical rhe-torical formula of the Constitution following the Hag and then all the Domobratlc logicians turn to us In I triumph and say How are you Republicans Re-publicans going to get out of that I hole Our answer Is that we dont propose I to get out of It for we dont Intend to get Into It Our answer is that It is i not even a hole unless It be a hole In the air Our answer Is that Mr Bry ans great syllogism Is as faulty a spc elmen of reasoning as any professor of logic might covet for use as a frightful example Its premises are utterly = false there Is no relationship between SIB major and Its minor propositions and no connection between either or both propositions and the deduction Even If you should concede the premises premis-es tho sequel resembles a wagon from which the horse has broken looo and run au Yll dont follow f DENY THE PREMISES 1 But we do not concede Mr Bryans premises We deny them utterly We say that the Constitution wastcrcated by l tHe Statcs for the States alone Ve deny that the Constitution follows the Hug or that of its own power it goes Into newlyacquired territories or that It exists at all outside of the I States unless and until Congress by legislation sends It there and when Mr Bryan assumes that he Is expounding expound-ing the t views of the Democratic fathers fa-thers he Illustrates either his want of randor or his lack of acquaintance with political history Again and again Mr Bryan tells us that this Is a contest between the man and the dollar Is It not rather a contest between the man who Is without a dollar because he Is too lazy or too Ignorant or too dishonest I to earn a dollar and the industrious man who has saved his dollar In I which contest tho dollarlcss man Is endeavoring en-deavoring to get the other mans dollar dol-lar away from him without giving anything any-thing for It Ts It I rot rather a contest I con-test between the man with a job and the man Avlo 1 Is afraid that ho will find a Job Between the breadwinner and the tramp Between the man who can write his name and the man who I signs his name with a cross Between tho depositors In tho savings banks I and the depositors In the faro banks Between the brawn and the brawlem I Between Jhe conscience of the country and its Intelligent selfishness AS TO THE TRUSTS An a branch of thin dollar against the man controversy 1111 Bryan makes a persistent attempt to charge tho Republican Re-publican party = with creating and foa teririg and defending the trusts In tjils he Is guilty of a piece of demagoguery dema-goguery that will recoil upon his Own head l He might as well try to hold the Republican patty responsible for the bubonic plague or the Galventon Hood So far aa It was possible 1 to curb the trusts by Federal legislation the Hfipuhjlnan party l did It when It paused tho Sherman law So far an It fras possible to help the trusts by preventing prevent-ing Federal legislation the Democratic party did It when last winter In Con rRH it rtefpntprl thy propoHPd anti j trust amendment to the United Stales Constitution Judge Powers who I think will never be Senator Powers even If I his party wins for ho has too much brains and too much decency to be an available avail-able candidate before a Democratic Leglslaluro Judge Powerswho made last Saturday night the ablest speech on the Democratic side that I have read during this campaign Judge Powers directs his heaviest batteries against the trusts and yet If J he would Invoke his candor Instead of his eloquence elo-quence he would be compelled to admit that It Is economic changes and not legal enactments or political platforms that have altered the business methods meth-ods of civilization and revolulIonlKod values and wages throughout the world It Is not to be denied that economic changes often produce inconvenience and loss to Individuals who may be temporarIly deprived of employment yet In the outcome any change that Increases the productive power of labor la-bor any Invention that makes It possible pos-sible for one man to do the work of two men Is a benefit to humanity Republicanism Re-publicanism recognizes this truth It will so far as possible curb and limit the power and prevent the aggressions of capital aggregated In soulless and concienceleas corporations But It recognizes re-cognizes that this Government Is not a Probate court to act as a guardian for weaklings but a Republic where the race must be to the swift and the battle to the strong It Is a Government Govern-ment where equality of opportunity will always be enforced but never equality of result REPUBLICAN CHEER Republicanism says = to the worker The land Is yours free to cultivate the forests arc yours free to hew the mines arc yours tree to locate Yours Is the right to work or remain Idle i as you will but you must respect the right of every other man to do likewise like-wise You shall not tear up the rails or obstruct the car of progress Nobody No-body shall crucify you upon a cross of gold and you shall not hang anybody upon a gallows of silver You shall I not smite and destroy with the ham merit of anarchy the Inventions with 1 which bright brains and deft lingers I are exempting mankind from the I earlness of toll Rockefeller shall I not take one hours labor from you unless he pays you for It and you shall not take one dollar from Rockefellers one hundred millions unless you earn it or he gives II to you Let Rockefeller Rocke-feller accumulate another one hundred millions so longas he can do so lawfully law-fully There will be no pockets In his shroud He cannot take a dollar with him when he goes And all he can hold In his cold

Shall we exchange ex-change progress for Democracy and swap off prosperity for Mr Bryan because be-cause of his calamity howl against the aggressions of capital and the tyranny tyran-ny of
