Show The spiritless campaign being made by tho IS Democrats just at present shows every indica- B tion of discouragement. Secretary Jackson Is MB the only man who hovers around headquarters ' afl from whom a smile can occasionally be extracted. HI They are confessedly without campaign money, ffjfl and everywhere workers are dU.-Juraged by the J IB ' lack of enthusiasm among the old band of the jfl faithful. They are now centering all their ener- nfl gies on carrying Salt Lake county, and this, as HA many of the leaders confess, they hope to accom- ifl plish solely by the assistance being rendered them Ifl by the American party. Frank Cannon was ex- lifll pected to guide them out of the wilderness, but Jfl his failure to cause any great stampede by his Knl anti-Roosevelt speeches has caused the gloom lifffl to deepen at headquarters. Besides this, lack (Ufl of funds, lack of system and an absence of en- HSU thusiasm among the unterrifled have rendered Jill party workers about as scarce as gold nuggets on JHI 'a briar bush. If Willard Snyder does not return 1BW pretty soon with some cheering news, or faithful WW Samuel Newhouse shortly augment his recent con- flfl tribution to the campaign fund, it looks as if the liifl headquarters Would soon have the appearance of fill a sub-station in the catacombs. mB in |
