Show FOSTER FAVORS HERBERT HOOVER Local Attorney Holds There Are No Party Issues, and Hoover Is Logical Man. No one at the present time with the t most rudimentary knowledge of national na-tional affairs can truly call himself cither a Republican or a Democrat ,and support his faith by a substan-tail substan-tail reason. There nro no issues between be-tween tho two parties nt this time. ; We may get a lot of satisfaction out of discussing whnt tho Democrats or the Republicans did or did not do but we will nt this time find sennt sntis-faction sntis-faction in discussing what they propose pro-pose to do. The Domocrats, of course would support a league of nntions nnd the mnjonty of the Republican possibilities possi-bilities are shaking in their shoos for fear a majority of the voters think i they wil not support such n league. There arc no other questions which cither of tho pnrties hnvo discussed recently. At the present time the whole mnt-tcr mnt-tcr simmers down to a quostion of enndidntes. McAdoo, Palmer and Hitchcock on tho one hand and Low-den, Low-den, Wood nnd Johnson on the other with Hoover between tho two groups. McAdoo is from the South with some experience in New York nnd n little in Washington, but so far as his training goes, ho enn not have tho sympathy for Utah industries that wo want n president to have. Palmer is in tho samo category as McAdoo so fnr ns we nro concerned. Hitchcock Hitch-cock would bo better, since ho comes from Nebrnskn, a western stnte, but some of us arc not quite sure thnt ho is big enough for tho job. Lowden's system is most too bndly saturated with Packing House fumes to bo of any use to the farmers nnd stockmen of Utah. Wood is n, better man for us thnn Lowdcn, but his training has all been along tho lines wo are all trying to get away .from. We havo already spent too much goott money Paying bills to tho steel trusts whilo our roads remain impassable impas-sable and our streams run to waste. Johnson, whilo light headed in some respects, is, I believe, tho best man for the Utah peoplo so far discussed. Ho is a western man in the first place; knows pur needs, has sympathy with us and I believe would do nil ho could to better western conditions. Had he taken a reasonable stand on the League, of Nations question, we couldn t have hoped for a much better enndidatc. The other man is Hoover. No other man in the field more fairly represents repre-sents the opinions of the best class of American citizens thnn doe Hoover. Hoo-ver. He is not put forth by tho Mexican Mex-ican Central Railroad Company, the Tnmpico Oil Interests, the Railroads 8r lxa, p.ack,nB houses. All of tho Work he has over done is of the non pnrtizan type. He believes we should not loso all the benefits of tho war by pulling ourselves into our shell and resting smugly under the false ! notion that it is to our best interest I to let Europe go to h while we I build more battle ships. Every thinking think-ing person knows that Europe is our t market and wo need their goods, but (how can wo trade with countries that have no stable governments, hence no credit There is no other man on i earth who knows as much about world I affairs and who has the ability he hns for steering tho United States . right in handling these mnttcra. I I don't believe there is another cnudi-I cnudi-I date who would be more fearless in handling domestic questions. Tho two 'domestic questions which the people of Utah are most interested in are 1 those of mnrketing our products nnd the reclamation of our farm lands. Hoover is tho best man in tho bunch for working out a mnrketing scheme nnd except for Johnson is our best chance nt getting through our irrlgn- tion schemes Wo nil know u good dcnl nbout Hoover; wo know that on any big question, wo tan count on his being absolutely sound. Hoover is my man nnd I believe he will be the next president. J. M. FOSTER, |
