Show H CAINE FOR GOVERNOR. H John T. Caine is a growing candi- H date. His speeches point clearly to H the fact that he understands what H Utah needs and that by electing him H Utah will get just the kind of a man H beet suited to the position. H Those who know him best know that H he will stand as a wall of adamant H against the assaults of those who want H to fatten at- the public crib without B giving a quid prolquo. Booms will not K be hie especial pets, on the contrary H economy will be his watchword. He H is in fayor of the construction of reeer- H Toirs, and as under an act of congress H of the laBt session the ''governor of B the state of Utah when duly inaugu- H rated and acting" will have the pre- B ference, right to apply for and get a H survey of any unsurveyed lands, and Hj to select therefrom any portion the H state may desire for any purpose ex- Hj cept the mining of gold and silver, it K will be in the power of our governor to Hj secure the necessary land on which to H establish reservoirs, and to get the fee H simple title to them for the state. H With Caine for governor the water Hj richts that will be created will be un- H der the control and Inure to the hene- H fit of the state. With Wells for eov- H ernor influenced by republican ideas of Hf favor to monopolies, speculators will Hf bave a chance which they are bound Kj to take advantage of, to secure valu H able water rights and sell water to the Hj coming farmers of Utah. H We want the future farmers ot Utah B to read the enabling act and the act of Hj congress passed last winter in relation B to Burveys of public lands, and see H for themselves how new homes may be H made in Utah under statehood, and H then decide whether they want the H immense power which the goyernor Hj and legislature have in shaping the H policy ot the material progress of the Hj coming state to be wielded in favor of H monopelies which have always been Hj favored by republicans, or in favor of H giving to every man an equal chance Hj with every other man, which has al-H al-H m ways been the policy of the democracy. H There has never been a time in Utah Hj before when party principles had such Hj a direct and extensive bearing upon H. our home affairB. The future prosper- H ity of the masses of the people of Utah H in a very large degree, hinges upon H their choice for governor and legisla. B We think it is time in Utah that Hj those who irrigate and till the soil.who develop coal, iron, gypsum, gilsonite, m arble, onyx, and many; other products pro-ducts of mother earth, had some sort of a show. We are in favor of mining the Dre-cious Dre-cious metals, but the federal government govern-ment is looking after that interest. Manufacturers should be encouraged by iucreaBed patronage, and to secure that patronage we want the cIbes who are at the foundation of bo ciety, to have a chance e- that thby may be prosperous and able to patron, ize "home industry" by buying its products. Voters, study the question, and if you will, you cannot fail to see that a voice for Caine for goyernor, and for democratic legislators, means a vote for fair play for the worsing class, and against monopoly of the land and water rights that will be available under statehood. |
