Show The Tribune saw something extremely sinister sinis-ter in the withdrawal of B. S. Harmsen of "West Jordan from the Democratic legislative ticket, and with its usual policy of rushing in where a regiment of Japanese Infantry -would be afraid to trample, attributed his withdrawal to the alleged fact that "Harmsen's fellow workers at the Bingham Bing-ham smelters are friendly to the American party and he did not want to be opposed practically solidly by them." It is passing strange that the paper should have to make Itself ridiculous by a misstatement when it could easily have ascertained the facts in the case. In reality Mr. Harmsen was until some months ago an office holder under the Mexican government, and as he has never since been naturalized, nat-uralized, his retirement from the ticket became necessary when the facts in the case were learned. What a magnificent spectacle of a truckling old journalistic degenerate the Tribune is. |
