spanish fark was over democratic that man certainly his good in the two words if spanish fork is overwhelming demo cratic it is certainly a hopeless case the speaker then launched forth on some of the campaign iss sues when the laree majority mao rity of Co naresa wag elected in 1890 it was epou a pleda to repeal alist iniquitous law th mckinley tariff so fir they have euc ceedee in legislating against three cleais alonz which they proposed to us free wool and free lead they evidently propose repealing the bill as the dutch man cut off his does tail piece at the timo so it would not hurt so much another promila which tha damo crata made was to rive w fres coinage the sanate paired a free coinage bill and the house killed it said ha propped to work for the J e aie was the nominee of toe ke kubican pu bican party mr was noi the j aminee because he was of aay creed or because bis name was cannon but in spite of these facts the present nominated because he would surely win a victory for the party this fail areat A song w weil rendered bv a quartette of dingers present judge J D gonei was the next speaker lie presented abo bounty in a brief and businesslike business like manner if the people of spanish fork dented an iron foundry or a woolen mill they would likely a bonus to obtain it L you sent a man tu man 10 fealt lafee to labor far th desired object and lie would betray your would yoi vote again 10 send him oa another such an errand so it is in sending a man to congress we should bend one wiio would not be tray our best interest ahu would not vote to have wool placed on the free list and who would mt work to have lead admitted free of duty A asmo crat would do this and tha speaker snowed wherein free wool and free lead would insure our territory mr jones reason dJ that free lead would nearly our mining industry and throw out of employment directly and indirectly ten thousand men like wise the n of free wool would ruin our sheep industry throwing out of employment at leat two thousand more men this would mean that twelve thousand men would have to go to farming an industry which is already over crowded twelve thousand men mean at least thirty six thousand consumers because for every working man there is at least three drawing support eup port that would anen mean thirty RIX thousand less consumers of our farm product while at the same time crowding the agriculture business the speaker bad no doubt that when utah understood the principles the people would be republican as for aars the have been to home industry mr jones pledged bis support of mr cannon notwithstanding that be had opposed him in convention the payson diver liand rendered very sweetly the spangled banner chairman feesl n a very pretty little speech introduced hon biank J cannon he was a man that had learned tc love home industry ahen a boy by tha bum of his mothers spinning lie had learned protection from the everlasting bills surrounding us and be had imbibed rom the breezes that blow over them we have with us he eald not a manu fractured cannon but a natural born cannon loaded to the muzzle with truth tremendous applause mr cannon the introduction was poetical and in many respects true I 1 did learn my arst lesson in home in deatry from my mothers spinning wheel FJ years in utah until I 1 became large enough to earn my own living I 1 wore no other clothing than that spun and woven by my mother I 1 am glad that my first public utterance in this campaign should bo made in V cab county the county that stood so nobly by tho superb sutherland in the convention mv only regret ia that utah could not send two representatives to congress that we might hays both ben nominees mr cannon then too up the question power plants of the republican platform bearing on the question there is nothing in that platform which shows any danger in that direction inasmuch as the republicans have been charged with a desire to cen power let us refer to a period of conr history when a large portion c oar country lay prostrate after a bloody war the government was then in the hands of the republican party they had it in their might to usurp power dij they usurp it no besides ing freedom to four and a half beings they gave amnesty to all who ha 1 fought the government except oni on i and he would not accept it did that look like the party was tending toward monarchy mr to another paga ol 01 history for twenty four years after that war the republicans bad bean in of the government When Cleve ind was elected president he ahad ciscely been beyond the borders of hi dative detate he had never been as tar west aa and had never been inside ane capitol until he came there as prisident in congress were men who had served the people for years and were well acquainted with jibe needs of their constituents cleveland vetoed in four years COO bills paced by these mea six times more bills had been vetoed bv all taft republican presidents from washington to cheater author alx timea in he defeated the will of the people 1 I doat believe in a yam tetory said mr cannon 1 I believe in a consistent p alicy in practice he referred to a law recently passed in tennessee proved that uj man can vote who cannot read or explain a claudo of the state constitution the result of that law is to disfranchise ore hundred thousand negro eSi true they should 30 able to read but it was not more than a genera tim ago binco hat same state parsed a law making it a crime to teach any negro how to read utah is not safe with a party that would disfranchise that many negroes the speaker begged lief to touch on ne phase of the question it rue that the of this country have better chances than the corfi inismet of other laadt if they have not tell why the kates of this country received last year of the down trodden of other lands take one of the boys of utah who has in early lile his mother at the spinning cheel and gleaned bare footed in the largest field aa

BO again anis fall mr cannon then talked tinplate tin plate for awhile democrats eay no tin is manufactured in this country and yet they eo about wearing cleveland button s made of american tin the price has not bean raised by the tariff tinplate tin plate is constantly growing cheaper vhyva it that democrats go about saying the consumer is being robbed did yon ever bear them say that when

candidate has asked for votes before every candidate sent to congress has known he would be elected whether he asked for or not and the other candidate has known he vo not be elected even though ha should ask for votes now we are about to vote for a policy of government if you believe that protection to our wool interests and mining industry will be a benefit to utah then vote for me il you
