Show THEY HAVE NEITHER TRUTH NOR SHAME ON TUESDAY june the liberal 11 organ of this city in its berdin leading 9 editorial made some statements which we did not intend to refer to and would not no now but for the reiteration of the original assertions in face of continual proofs of their falsity the drift of the article was to draw back the democrats and republicans who have thrown off the I 1 liberal yoke and to deter others from breaking away from its thra thralldom idom with these objects evidently in view the liberal organ said it begins to look as an though after all there would be no republican and democratic ticket in the field this thia year as was confidently predicted two weeks ago but as though the peoples party would just simply run under the name of the unter rifled democracy certain it is that john henry smith has had a recall it is pretty tough after he be started out to be an evangelist for the republican party to have his ell clipped p ed 1 in a single fortnight ir to 0 the liberals who have been lured away by the promise that I 1 one of a little position this of spoils the tae tribune wishes to say that the doors are open I 1 that they can come back we know whereof we speak we know that apostle john henry has been called to account and in that call the whole business is given Away and that is a that the priesthood of the church manipulated this thing from the first and they are holding the same iron hand hana on the rein that they have through all the half century that has just fust closed wt we did not dot consider it hect necessary abary to make any denial of these thebe reckless as sections sert ions because we supposed that the reports which are published nearly every day of meetings in which john henry smith has been discussing political issues from a republican standpoint would be sufficient refutation and would silence even the shameless scribes of the I 1 ILI liberal b organ of falsehood but they continue to repeat their un truths for which there is not the slightest foundation in fact and that too in spite of the well known public labors of mr smith which have been continued without cessation two days after the foregoing rec recall alln was announced by the tribune it published a notice ofa of a grand republican rally at heber city at an early date to be addressed by apostle john henry smith the following notices we were published republished in the ogden standard which the tribune receives and refers to when that serves its purpose the following appointments for rallies are respectfully submitted to the republicans of weber county and the officers of clubs are requested to publish notice as thoroughly as possible ladies are invited wednesday july 1 1891 at 8 pm at the fourth ward

monday monjay july 6 1891 at huntsville hon ohn john henry smith and others at pleasant view john morgan esq and others tuesday july at west harrisville hon john henry smith at slater vide john mor morgan a n esq wednesday tu july 1 y 8 at north ogden hon john henry smith at harrisville john morgan esq reports of the ogden meeting have been extensively published and john henry smiths remarks thereat have been quoted copiously yet after all this the mendacious tribune had this to say editorially on sunday morning july ath by the way a few days since we announced that apostle john henry smith had been recalled from his work of pros eluting for republicans that the democrats democrate had complained that he was using bis bin apostolic influence people which was bad and that in consideration of their complaint apostle john henry had been recalled the herald pooh at thle this we believe the times did but has john henry been out on the range making any more republican ca n converts nver thaine we fear not we thought ou lit f for very ery shame they would send him out once more but it seems the recall was irrevocable john hen henry had too much zeal and john henry alze like all other good saints knows how to so receive orders and to obey them I 1 any person or paper that relies upon what the tribune says concerning events in utah is liable to be deceived in its columns the remarks of public speakers are purposely perverted the arguments menty of its opponents are falsely stated sentiments are attributed to public men that thoy never entertained and words quoted as their language that they never uttered this instance of the statement of an alleged fact which the writer says he knows know slY and that is certain is only one out of many assertions that are equally baseless and as thoroughly false there is no sense of shame or any care for even the ap bearance pe arance of consistency with the fabri cahors of the falsehoods that continually appear in that paper john henry smith has been working every day speaking eyed eyers night on the beauties of republican politics as he sees the subject and that to is known to the creatures who repeat the lie that he has been recalled PY and that the recall was irrevocable P what is the purpose of it ic all to carry the false impression which they are daily endeavoring to make that the priesthood l w whatever hate ver they may mean by that is directing this political movement and to arrest the rush of liberals ly into the national parties and if possible induce some that have deft to respond to the piteous call of come backal now we wish it to be distinctly understood by saint and sinner mormon and gentile ap that the church lias has no wish to figure in this movement john henry smith as he be has repeatedly announced does not appear on the stump as an apostle he exercises his liberty as an american citizen to ad advocate republican doctrines any other man in the church whatever may be his ecclesiastical position has an equal right to advocate democratic principles but each must pursue his own course as a citizen and not noraa as a church dignitary and it to is not right for any man to use or attempt to used use church influence to make political converts the church has nothing whatever to say my as to whether its members should be republicans public ans or democrats it has ban no rebuke for any man on either alther ground A church member or official has just as much right to be a republican as a Demo cart or a democrat as a republican the church is not sending out political missionaries and therefore it is not recalling hem and the person or paper that endeavors to make it appear that the church or its its presidency Is dominating or controlling cont roling this political movement is either grossly deceived or as in the case of the liberal illiberal Is organ is intentionally deceptive and wilfully false |
