He became a member of the Democratic club a few days ago and signed the roll, but ever since has been talking for the election of Roosevelt and Kearns. Jt Jt an interview with Will Roylance while he was there at the fair, and alluded to him as the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor this fall. Of course the reporter who wrote the story put that statement in to make his yarn stronger and to flatter the Provo mayor. But the Provo Enquirer, in its headlines, states that Roylance announces himself as the leading candidate for governor, something so manifestly unfair to Will that we feel impelled to tell the Enquirer it ought to be ashamed of itself. Such tricks of the trade are all right for a personal organ like the Salt Lake Tribune, but when a great and presumably fair Republican organ like the Enquirer stoops to such petty methods it looks bad.

Truth believes you will vote Smart for the state senate, the Wave for Kearns whenever you can and as . of Heber City indulges in the following: The question naturally presents itself, does Truth tell the Truth? perhaps former President Hatch or President Smart of the Stake, or both, might explain. The people of this county may want to know before too many pledges are recorded. They may have a preference between Kearns and Smoot, and may wish to know which they are supporting with their franchise. Since writing the above Hatch has handed in an announcement which clearly defines his position and gives the electors of this senatorial district an opportunity of knowing just where he stands on the question of choosing a United States senator. This announcement will be found in another column of this issue. Then follows the card of Hatch, as herewith reproduced: To the Citizens of Summit and Wasatch Counties: I am a candidate for nomination at the Republican senatorial convention of the Fifth Senatorial district. If elected I will go to the state senate unpledged to any candidate for the United States senatorship. I will cast my vote for United States senator for the person whom I may, at the time, believe will best subserve the Interests of the United States and this state, and will devote my time and energies for my state and district.

Under the caption: A Southern Emetic, the Wasatch Wave has this to say: The Progress-Reviea paper published at Fillmore, published last week a article slopping over with gush about The Honorable Thomas Kearns. It tells of the many great and good things he has done for the dear people of this state, and how he gave the glad hand to one and ail of his dearly beloved constituents. It cites the many great achievements of this great man, and how he established all the rural delivery routes in the state and had the salary of all the postmasters increased, established the military post at Fort Douglas and many other great things. There is one thing the writer forgot to mention that the Honorable Tom should have credit for, and wo mention it so that it can be Included in the next prescription, that is the amendment to the bill opening the Uintah Indian reservation, giving the exclusive right to an eastern syndicate to locate the mineral land on the reserve. We dont charge anything for this Information. JK A Thats right, Brother Buys. Lam it to him; give him his needins, or, in other words, tel the truth about him. There are a few of us in this state who cannot be bought with his coin and Truth is glad to sec the sturdy old Wasatch Wave standing up for the right regardless of what the venal- minded editors who have soiled their hands with Kearns money say. Give it to him, Buys; we are with you. Let the over-rate- d chump rise to his feet and explain if he can, why the honest miners of this state were excluded and a syndicate, of which he is said to be a silent partner, is given a license to roam over the reservation and pick out the richest spots. He can have a page in Truth to explain if he asks for it. free of charge, but you can bet your last dollar he will not attempt to make any explanation, even though it does not cost him anything. w, three-colum- n J J The friends of former Chief Justice Miner are pressing him to allow his name to go before the Republican convention as one of the presidential electors.
