prostitutes well gle rie he has hope tor for utah still lie say says is a ion lon long iong way irom from an editorial in the inter ocean commenting OX ON THE ME iti ati NG ann aff affords interesting matter for thought it say says judge doolittle doolittle is a democrat well what has that to do with a farwell hall hali meeting lne ine eting perhaps it ift is so seldom that a democrat is found foaud in barwell farwell hall that it was cause for congratulation on this occasion and then this editorial says the mormon normon LI ormon has no politics theold the old satirist said you make a desert and vou you call cali it peace 11 but we of today to day call can say 1 you disfranchise a man kanand and then say sas a y he has no politics you tle tie a mans hands and then spit in his face and say he be has not courage to resent the ann aff affront bolit 1 I 1 what charming consistency to basure be sure the editorial says that any party might well be proud arodd of having such ail an opportunity to glorify itself as at present in the case of ulah utah and poor james buchanan Buc hanan banan for the first time in 23 21 23 21 years gets a soft word from a republican organ because he sent an army to utah in 1857 on the false representations of adventurers and lying ning politicians and characterless preachers we had a few of this last class even 25 A years vears ago ao but now we have a whole harvest calvest 01 of them THIS CRY OF disloyalty has been raised so much that it has become positively nauseating every miserable pettifogger who ascends a platform has this parrot cry in ills his mouth again against staily stally any ans person or persons who do not bow to him even in the very senate chamber of the united states this cry Is often heard there you will find a dunghill dung hill whom accident has marle marie a senator charging men whose fathers and grandfathers were pillars of the state with the charge of disloyalty there we have heard men charged with I 1 eachin caching disloyalty and incompetence hicom ce men to whose sagacity intelligence and f foresight ore ne t the republic owes its existence today to day if a had the rash impetuosity and consummate ignorance of a burnside or a rope fope where would your union be today to day this charge of disloyalty to ones country is one that should be met moet sternly stonily and appropriately the man biking it whether lie be a mushroom i benator or a salt lake gospel hack should get his reward reviewing the CONDITION OP OF OUR oun territories after a republican administration it t is not very flattering dachota in anarchy and utah according to iny my niece in revolt president arthur has appointed three governors in direct antagonism to tile the platform of his party ile he has sent a governor to daetta who has achieved some notoriety as a dime daine novelist and smutty play wi ight this was the man who wrote a play called the hundred wives 11 it started on a tour from froin chicago and was never heard of since in fact the only redeeming feature about the governor of dachota is that thal he was identified with chicago at one time As to the tha governor of utah his literary productions drive people to coi col commit linit suicide it would be well weli for a democratic administration and democratic house to consider well any legislation touching the territories let them thein await th the e reports S and investigations of democratic ra ir governors and then act accordingly with regard to utah the mor non mon eater may howl and say it is no party affair yes Y c i it is if utah is as macniece mac niece presents it every federal officeholder office holder hoider in the territory ought to be turned out whether it is or not a democratic house and president fireside t should be guided in their legislation by men of their own party on whom they can rely let us ns have hafe a democratic governor of utah and of dakota and of idaho and of montana and let us have reports that we vve can rely on let us not notice this present agitation about utah since it is got up for other than moral purposes purposed if the present resent crowd in utah think they can hold nold old oid on by a little tactics of this kind they are terribly mistaken let every party skin its own skunks the th democratic party is oil one of principle and dependent on en this for vitality and it cannot anford amford to legislate on the dictum of a ball or a JUNIUS julius |
