| Show SOMETHING MORE THAN WE WB have shown to the satisfaction of very vary reasonable reader that the statement of the salt lake tribune john hewy henry smith had been recalled lp from his political labors by the print hood and its further statement thit that the he recall was irrevocable 9 were utterly false and without the slightest foundation in fact and we have cited to proof bof of our refutation the dael kioa oi mr smiths appointments and repozo of the meetings at which he ha h been bea speaking NOW the tribune une says the NEWS IMS been trying to establish by innuendo that when we said sai dJohn john henry smith had been recalled from the campaign we did not state the vuth trotha how much innuendo inu endo there our exposure of the tribune Iri bune s lying may be seen from these paragraph grop bei which we reproduce from the NEWS of monday evening icae we supposed that the reports which we are published nearly every day of meetings in which john henry smith jh hagreen been discussing sing political issues from a Ae republican publican standpoint would be refutation and would silence even the shameless scribes of the libera biall organ of falsehood but they continue to repeat their untruths un truths for which there is not the slightest eligh test foundation in fact and that too in spite of the well known public labors of mr smith which have been continuous without cessation john henry smith has been working every ilay day speaking every night on the beauties of republican politics as he sees the subject and that is known to the creatures who repeat the lie that he has been recalled I 1 and that the recall was irrevocable 11 if that is in the nature of innuendo inu endo perhaps this will be considered straight enough talk when the tribune stated repeatedly that john henry smith had bad been recalled by the pries priesthood from working in the political field as a republican on each occasion it wilfully and maliciously lied and further there is scarcely an issue of the tribune in which intentional falsehoods concerning occurrences or individuals do not appear moreover when the truth is made so clear that it is undeniable instead of withdrawing its statements or acknowledging its error its common course is to repeat its lies in another form or shelter itself behind the skirts of some nameless reliable old lady or respectable citizen who is alleged to have told somebody vp w ho told the tribune this time it saye say we did not manufacture the matter at all it was told by a prominent mormon yaho who knows to a prominent gentile who lie is perfectly reliable and by him it was told to us ue if suppose this is true is that ground enough to justify what the tribune originally said here it is certain it is that john henry smith has had a recall it is pretty tough after he started out to be an evangelist for the republican party to have his wings clipped in a single fortnight we know whereof we speak we know that apostle john henry has been called to account and in that call the whole business is la given away and that is that the priesthood of the church manipulated p this thing from the first an and t they e are holding the same iron hand on the rein that they have through all the half century that has just fust closed the tribune knew whereof it spoke it was certain and sure it was no mere rumor but something positively known to the editors how did they know it why some unnamed mormon I told it to some unnamed gentile who told it to somebody else and that is tribune proof and all the proof it has for numberless other lies which it publishes as pretended facts now it does not matter whether a mormon or a gentile or a dozen of either claw class told the stupid story about john henry smiths recall it must be evident to the whole community that there is no truth in it for the gentleman whose name and work have been called in question has been and is working diligently in the political field the same as before the falsehood was coined and it would seem that common prudence would suggest to the untruthful scribes who started the rumor the propriety of acknowledging at least that they were mistaken but no in face of the facts they lie annd on and add another falsehood to their black catalogue here it is ie at the time we said that we thought tuat the apostle would be sent out on one more roundup that has been decided upon and the conditions are very funny we hope in a few days to be able to give the entire proofs the funny part of this is that the tribune did not say anything of the kind when it uttered the original lie which was on tuesday june 30 but last sunday referring to the matter it said by the way a few days since we announced that apostle john henry smith had been recalled from his work oi of pros eluting for republicans that the democrats had complained that he was using his apostolic influence among the people which was wais bad and that in consideration of their complaint apostle john henry had been recalled the herald poo mooned ed at this we believe the times did but ut has john henry been out on the range making any more republican converts we fear not we thought tor for very shame they would send him out once more but it seems the recall was irrevocable john henry had too much zeal and john henry like all other good saints knows how to receive orders and to obey them what a tangled web these clumsy deceivers have compare their various statements and behold their complicated contradict ionel if some unknown mormon did mention ft a rumor which they caught up eagerly what a mew mess of falsehood they have concocted to make it appear that it was a matter of irrevocable certainty known to them personally and a feet fact in spite of indisputable proofs to t the contrary we repeat the statement that there is no truth in the tribunes original story but it is of the same class clan of deceptive assertions that may be found every day in the columns of the most unprincipled unreliable and unmanly journal in america the liberal organ the salt lake tribune which ought not to be trusted by any person or paper in the country when the truth is wanted concerning utah and its affairs this will probably bl be understood as an something more than incando inu endo ando 11 |
