Show B II; MJlsELF GimT IIIJIELr. Hl 3 Tjieiie. is a weakly half-patent H "m Mieet published in Oilen which B calls Itself the Ceimmeraa'. Our H -jg apolojry for mentianing It Is this: H It espouses theci'iss of tho "Iib- H !' eral" candidate for Delegate to Con- H 1 grcas, and some things it has said B have been copied into local papers HBBBB J J of more importance. The "Llbtr- H J js al"or;ran iii this city patronizingly H J j. auvl gleefully Incorporates some of H I r the Commercial's sayings in an edi- HH I ;; torial this morning from which we H , -5 clip these sentences H 5 'Among the agencies that are help- H If ng Judge Goodtrin is tho Mormon B T. press. With increasing hatred, with HHHK ! I' hitter and venomous cowardice, with HHPB i falsehood and slander, it showers upon HBJSBj I him an uneaasing flood of malicious HHPB IT and despairing abuse " BBBBaj Tneonl "abJse" that the -'Mor- PBBBB mon" press has heaped upon C U. PBBBBj ' Goodu in is the quotation of his own HBBBB If language, the reprod'ictiou of para- PPJPH graphs from tho columns bearing PPPPJ his nra: as editor, and the invita. H tion that he apply to him- PPPB self some of the epithets PPPH winch abound In his editorials H Neither he nor his vulgar bench- PPBH min seemto relish this. Their forte PPPB is to abase others, to lie about tliur H ' Letters, to sua-titute personalities PPPPJ for arguments and pat ribaldry in PPPPJ , the place of reasoning. They can- H j not endure retort, nor Mew without PPPH I lage the reply of au opponent on H 1 any subject. If he does not Low H V t down to their contradictor and il- H i logical aertions aui deductions, PPPH tiiere is no name in the catalogue of PPPPJ i iiificJtion and vituperation too base PPPH to heap upon him PH When a man who has grossly In- PH suited good women, called their PPPJBM children the most approbrious name HK in the vernacular, derided their re- PPPH ligion, falsified their faith, sought E I to deprive admittedly industrious PPPPJ and law abiding men joungand PPPH old, of the elective franchise, PPPH I solely because they will not tote PPBM for his garg, and announces PPPB himself in fivor of reducing PPPPJ them to political tlaverj, has the PPPH impudence to exhibit himself to the B public gazeand ask the people whom PPPPJ he has so slandered, and whom he PPPH wishes now to rob of every political PPPPJ right to give him their votes that H he may go to Congress to work for PPPK their destruction, it is time some- PPPPJ body told a fe- truths concerning HB his co jrr.e and intentions. PHK Hut in doing this no paper that PPPPJ we havi. seen has come don n to the PH personalities in which he himsslf U PPpB indulging concerning his opponent. PPPPJ We hive said nothing about his per- PPPH sonal standing aud the unenlablc B figure he has cut before tile civil ( courts If wedeslred to go down to PPPPPB i the level ot his own sheet, we could PPPPPS do all that is necessary in tills line PPPPPPPJ by simply giving his hUtory In cer- PPPPPP tain iecuniary matters from the PPPPPPPj court reports. But we are not in PPPPPA that kind of business. We leave PPPPPPPJ tint sort of thin? to the receptacle PPVjVjVJ of filth called the Silt Lake PPPPPJI Trt&unc PPPPPPj It seems that neither the "Iilb- PPPPPPP eral" candidate nor his "Liberal" ISPPPK sjpportcrs and apologists like the PPPPPp. reproduction of articles and sen- PPPPPPJ tenets from the col jmns bearing his PPPPPPJ name. Well, wp did not expect or PPPPPB w l-h to plea?e them. I f he does not PPPBPPj like his on n language and senti PPPPPC merits juoted, he should not have PPPPPJi expressed them We have not PPPBH charged him with anything but PPPPPHj what he acknowledges to hold as his PPPPPPJ present opinions and intentions. PPPPPP Tlie abue, then, is all his own, and PPPPPK j m e propose to quoto him whenever PPPPPPJ we feel it proper to do so. PPPPPVfl His lo-Uion, self-conftEsed, is line PPPPPJH He wants to go to Congress If he PPPPPPPJ is elected, lie will Use the power PPPPPPM , thus conferred upon him to PPPPPPPJ take awaj the right to vote aud PPPPPPPJ to hold office aud to enter and ac- PPPPPPPJ juire title to public lands from ever PPPPPPJ member of the ' Mormon" Church, PPPPPPM and fm every man who afll hates PPPPPPPJ with it or with the People's Party. PPPPPPPJ And he asks the members of that PPPPPPPJ Church and of that party, the PPPPPPJ j dinger men particularly, to help PPPPPPPJ him to tlie summit of lit, ambition. TIiat !, ho asks them to commit political ulclde, or to put into I113 hands the insaas to tflect their political assassination. His impudence is only excelled by hiamoniaclty. And though he PPPPPPPJ mai he -adly in need of the salary PPPPPPPJ which is the chief incentive to his PPBlS present eflWrt;, et he ought to have PPPPPpK sense enough to see the absurdity of PPPPPPPJ ills position, failing that, be is not PPPPPPPPPPJI fit to go to Congrcs nor any where PPPPPPP2 tUe b.it a lunatic asylum. PPPPj And any "Mormons" or spns of PPPpB "Mormons,"who u ould cat a ballot PPPPPPPPK for such a maligner of their nioth- PPPPPPJj era, a defamer of their manhood, PPPPPPPJ and a foe to their liberties, ojglit to PPPPPPJ accomjvinj him to that institution PHPH and remain until reason dawns BPPPSS uP'i their benighted mind'. PPPPPPPJ On the part of the Peorde and the . papers which support the People's PPPPPPPJ candidate as yet there have been no PPPPPPPPPJ personal attacks If such were de- PPPH sirable the nisans are abundant and PPPPPPPJ at hand, both for the "Liberal" PPPPPPPJ caudidate and several of his brazen pilllllj supporters. d!jt it is sufficient to PPPPPPj cite his o-u sentiments and place Jl in their proper light hU on n claims PPPPPPPj and admission, to deter any "Mor- PPPPPPPJ mon" or eon of a ".Mormon" who PPPPPPPJ retains his sues and self respect PPPPPPPj from voting for so pronounced a foe PPPPPPPJ to freedom. |
