Show UTAH DAILY RECENT SPEECH OF DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE FOR CONGRESS. Arrogance of Certain Leadora Touched Upon Diatinguiahed and Fa thful Men Oppoao Cutler. In a siwei'h recently delivered by Judge u. W. Powera the following ob aervationa were made: of Utah must Every have viewed with apprehension the launpaign waged with arrogance uud with methoda both unwise and overbearing. Leading Republican officials have declared to the voters that if the future in they wanted anything in muat attach a political way they Even themselves to their fortunes. the judiefury was not overlooked, as was evidenced by the primaries and the convention In the Seventh Judicial district, where the moat and reprehensible measures were resorted to, and the man nominated for Judge, in a sjwech in Salt Lake City, tilled with partisan rancor, denunciation und invective, demonstrated that he was the representative of a faction and not the choice of the untrammeled men of his own party. And in such an atmosphere the ReIt publican State convention met. met amid the clangor of stormy tongues, giving voice to bitter passions. Before that convention for the nomination for givernor, there were three candidates; one of them an excellent and quiet citisen, waa the open and avowed choice of the lender of the now dominant faction of the Republican party. At that time he waa so unknown to our political life that delegates to the convention are said to have voted for him supposing they were sustaining his distinguished brother. He had never demonstrated that he possessed the attainments that are required of a Governor. He was a stranger to our public life. He had followed the quiet avocation of a merchant tailor, and his warmest admirers cannot claim that he possesses to any marked degree the attributes which a governor of Utah must possess. The other candidates were men who stand high in our public life. Heber M. Wells has shown distinguished ability as governor of this state, and the people recognise a most faithful public servant in James T. Hammond. But I am Informed that neither Hammond nor Wells belonged to the Smoot faction, nor to the Kearns faction. Had either been nominated, neither faction could have claimed it os a victory. On a straight vote of the people, either one would have left Cutler so far behind that he would not have been known In the running; yet both were cast aside in obedience to the wishes of the dominant political faction, which even sought to humiliate Hammond in his own home county. However that mny be, the will of one man controlled the Republican convention In its nomination for Governor, and the man whom he discovered and selected for office was placed at the head of the Republican ticket. Was this as it should be? Waa this the method that ought to be pursued? Is this the method of the party of the great omanclpator whose trust In the people was such that he declared: "You can't fool the well-wlah- er high-hand- ed time?" No! The method There never wrong. great enoitugh and broad enough to do the thinking for any political party. Of all the states in the union, we ought to refuse to be ruled by the one-ma- n power. In this )and, where the people control, no one has the right and no man should be allowed the power to throttle free thought and free political action and to demand and procure his personal choice for office to be selected by his party. Our liberty depends upon the right of the lowliest to have & voice and to be heard. The beggar in rags has the right as well as the millionaire In purple. There must be no one-ma- n power In our politics, and no matter how good, no matter how able a candidate may be, if he la the creature of a "boss" or a faction it is unsafe for the people to elect him. We are all well aware that the American people wHl npt passively submit to political dictation. This fact the dominant faction lost eight of, but it was soon brought forcibly to Its attention. Soon after the Republican nominations were made there was a stormy session of the Republican state committee. There were of discontent, which rapidly rose to angry protest. The chairman of the Republican State committee, with an arrogance born of a little fleeting power, proclaimed that for evey vote that was lost to the Republican party he would secure the votes of two Mormon Democrats In the country." And he further declared, with a boldness that made men stare, that while the Republican managers had failed to lend the bolting Repub Means into their parlor, ns the spider did the fly. he would make other arI will say now that rangements." these words. sioken us they were by the chief executive officer of a great political party, will do more harm to his senator before the senate committee on election than all the denunciations of that Senator that can he made by his enemies, From his language I Infer that if the Republican chairman could have his way he would pull down upon our heads thf very walls of our. political mur-murln- gs TEA OF THE DEMO-cratl- c of Weber county, Utah, Party is hereby called to meet at the county In Ogden City, at 10 courthouse. o'clock a. m.a on Wednesday, October 5, 1904, for the purpose of placing in nomination one candidate for State Senator, four candidates flor Representatives in the State Legislature, one candidate for County Clerk, one candidate for County Treasurer, one candidate for County Recorder, one candidate for County Sheriff one candidate for County Assessor, one candidate for County Attorney, one candidate for County Surveyor, two candidates for County Commissioner (one for the term of two years and one for the term of four years), one candidate for County Superintendent of County Schools, which last named candidate shall be nominated by the delegates chosen in the several voting districts outside of Ogden City; one Constable for Ogden City Precinct, which last named candidate shall be nominated by the delegates shosen In the several voting districts within Ogden City, and for the election of a County Committee, and for the transaction of any and all other business that may properly come before such convention.

"For years rate was after me The committee on platform and of the Democratic state resolutions at Salt Lake City, held convention platform the following presented which was adopted by the convention: The Democracy of Utah, in convention assembled, reiterates Its belief In principles of the orthe has that always stood for ganisation the rights of all the people, as against the demands of the favored classes since the founding of the republic, and reaffirms its faith in the great underlying principles laid down by Jefferson and Incorporated into the Declaration of Independence in the following language: "We hold these truths to be that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights and among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed," and we pledge ourselves to a constitution of the policy which has ever characterised this party a strict adherence to that principle." We declare once again In favor of the axiom, first laid down by the founder of the Democratic party; Equal rights to all and special privileges to none. adopted We endorse the platform and reaffirm the principles declared by the national Democratic convention at St. Louis, and cordially and enthusiastically approve the nomination of Alton B. Parker and Henry Q. Davis of for president and the United States. We direct the attention of our fellow citizens of all parties to the condition confronting the electors 6f this state because of the selfish. and disgraceful contentions which have divided the Republican party Into two opposing factions, each led by a Republican United States senator. Such conditions are the net results of the success of the Republican party In recent years, now plainly manifested, and are but the natural consequences of an attempt to array one class of our citizens against another class In a feud, which, if persisted In, will result In permanent Injury to the best Interests of the commonwealth. The Democratic party of the state enters its protest against these conditions and the cause therefor, and calls upon the people of the state to rebuke at the and arrogance polls the assumption of the party which is alone responsible for the situation. The Democratic party neither seeks nor fears the Interference of any power with the expression of popular will at the polls, and denies the right of any power or of any man, or set of men, to dictate political nominations or to control political conventions. We hold that American citizens are politically free and equal, and the people alone should wield this power. While we are willing and ready at all times to accord to the president of the United States the credit due him for his work In securing the passage of the national Irrigation law, at the same time we positively refuse to concede that It was a Republican measure, but on the contrary was, as is shown by the record, initiated by, labored for and Introduced by a Democrat, advocated by Democrats, passed by Democrats and but for the votes of the Democratic members of both houses, would have been defeated by Republicans, overwhelmingly. We believe in the dignity of labor and recognise the right of the tollers of our state, and pledge our candidates for office to the enactment of such policies and measures as will protect them in their rights and insure their personal liberty In the pursuit of their several occupatlona The Democratic party now, as in the past. Is the friend of labor and pledges itc candidates to Just and equal enforcement of the laws without discrimination in favor of persons, property or power. It advocates a just and compensatory wage for the service of an eight-hoday In work on all public works and in mines, mills and smelters, and in all cases a fair and living remuneration for the labor of all men and women.

The latter speedily and boldly gave voice to their dissatisfaction, and they have organised u new and active party. They have thrown down the gauge of battle. They have declared their grievances, and whether or rot those grievances have foundation in fact, it is idle to discuss, for the new movement has a following that Is respectable in strength. It matters not whether the new movement is a result of disappointed ambitions or whether it was born from the honest conviction that there is a necessity for its existence it is here, and it is a factor for consideration. It will not do to attempt to whistle it down.

To me it is unimportant whether this new movement be engineered by men because of political disappointments or whether it has been caused by real and not fancied grievances. It Is here to be considered. It is now a part of our political life. Knowing the causes that have led up to it, we know the success of the men responsible for those causes will perpetuate its life. I always prefer to attribute honesty of purpose to men and to women until the contrary appears, even when I deem that they are mistaken In the course that they are pursuing.
