Show H; i MR. ENGLAND DECLINES. Hi I MORE "PAID ADS." I H , In a recent Issuo uc nsked .Mr. BH f Charles Knglnud, Mnnngcr of tno BH. i Journal to give tlio public the real H ( nnmo of our friend "Arlstotlo." Wo BH t 1'1 this purely on tho grounds that BH It would he it good way for him to HB clear his .paper of any charge of BH . bud faith incident to the pledge re HB cently made nt tho Joseph M. Mnr- BH ( stmll dinner nt tho Eaglo Hotel where BH i eighty business men participated, llml HB ho have said that tho nrtlclo was con- BH cocked In a Main Street office, that HB It was delivered to n Journal rcprc- BH Kontntlvo by John A. Hcndrlckson, BH and carried to thu Journal office Bfl where It wns turned over to tho Bfl ( managment, nnd thero passed upon, Bfl ' ho would hnvo said what hns been Bfl 4 current talk slnco the appearance of Bfl tho article, nnd would hnvo rolleved BH himself of Just that much of tho re- Bfl sponslblllty. Bfl Instead ho publlHhcs another scrcod Bfl ' of his "paid ud" stripe, and harps HH on the Ilcbcr J. Urnnt Issue, long HH I slnet urgiiid, ncknou lodged, and pas HH j Bed upon. We say argued from th-j fnct that Mr. urnnt secured tho Tub- HH t ernnclo to defend himself, mid did Hfl defend himself not only against tun HI ' pnper, hut ugalnat thu Journal as ' well. Wo say acknowledged from the Hj I fact that what wo had to sa' was uu HI ft edltoilnl for which tho paper was re- Hflj I sponsible, and from tho further fact HI that It waB ucknowleged and th-i PHJ responsibility fixed In a caininuntcu- HI 4 Hon to Mr. (Irani while tho matter Hflj I wnB a live iBSue. H 1 As to tho Issue, briefly, libber J Hflj ! Grant criticised a Hcpubllcnn legls- Hfl I lnturo In no mild terms. Ho did It HI j ' In tho l.ogati Tabernacle, and on HI ! Sunday. Ho Is an Apostle of tho HI j Mormon Church. Other Apostloi HI j ranking just as high ns Mr. Grant Hi ' hnvo applauded tho work of this Icgls- Hfl laturc, and hnvo approved of Its acts HI i just as strongly ns Mr. Grant con- HI doinued them. From tho fnct that HI Mr. Grant criticised, nnd condemned. H what others of his rank approved, wo HI felt It our right to criticise him, nnd HJ f In tho words of our Journal friends HI j felt that ho was not "lmmuuo because HI I of his exalted position." Hi How about our Journal friends? On Hi Wednesday evening October 21, 11)08 Hi thoie was a concert In tho Nlbltjr Hi '' ' Hall, at which Mr. Gnvnt contributed Hj i ' IiIb services, Ho was not singing for HI . money, but wns assisting to ralso Hi . funds for some Improvement nt the HJ J I). Y. College. On October 24, 11)08 H !i tho Journal gnvo n criticism In which H ' it ridiculed Mr. Grant saying that H . j "ho wns an unmarrcd joy," "Heber H . ' , may not hnvo done as much for mu- H ,) j sic In Utah ns some, but ho hns done B !i as much to It ns anyone." "His voice B I mny have tho chinking out in placas Bfl but when It comes to volume, Us tho real hot toddy," and other statement Bb I of like character, and this without BJ nuy provocation whatever. BM Again our friends rofcr to "Ilcno- Bl diet Arnold's," "treacherous pollll- Bh cal barnacles," etc. Dy this thoy Bl mean certain Individuals that we have Bfl chaiactcrlzed ns such, nnd to which Bfl wo plead guilty. Thero nro n few B of just such fellows that go to' con- B vcntlons and help to nominate tick- B ctB, soma of them being candidates m for office, and when thoy don't got K just what they want they go out and BV work to detent the ticket thoy helped K' to make. These aro tho fellows wo Bfl,' have so characterized and wo stand Bl by the record. And wo will leave It Bfl to theso follows themselves every- Bfl j body knows who they are If thero Pfl Is not more truth and justification In Bfl J our coureo a thousand tlmcB, than B ( in tho Journal's charge under date PB ' of May 16, 1905, wherein It 1b charg- B , ed that "Joel nicks for potty poll- Bm k tlcal ends, might be willing to barter B away from the pcoplo of Cacho Coun- K 5 ty their chlot prldo," or tho Intlraa- HI ' tlon In their Issue of May 23, 1U05 PB ' whero tho authorship of a "violent PB ucrocd in 'Truth'" is laid nt the PK door of Peter W. Maughan, PH Of coureo nothing Ib said of that Pj dirty, foul, screed appearing lu the M ' . Journal under dato of March SO, ia07 m ' under the heading "Something of a fljflj ' O drop," followed by "Well, wo have BBkJ-HHH Wldtsoo nnd wo'll hnvo to endure him whether we like him or not, so tho only thing to do I3 to mnko thu host out of n bad Job," etc., winding up with Its n orful fall down from gooso livers nnd chnmpngno to wntir whelps nnd bacon." Or its ultimatum to Hon. Joseph Howell wndcr dato of August 2, 100C wherein It says with all the pomp and selfish conceit within with-in its power to muster "THM JOUU-N'AI. JOUU-N'AI. W1L.I.. UK COMPEM.KL) TO KS THEM YOU AN ENEMY OF THE AaitlCULTUKAI. COLLEGE." Yo Gods whnt ncrvo. Or that "Oolng tho people" screed In Its Ibsuo of October I 1U0G wherein Hon. Joseph Howell Is charged with "doing tho pcoplo of Logan out of a street rallrond." Oh, s.ivu tho mark, their entire anatomy must hare suddenly turned to guut Hero wo stop, for ns wo turn tho l.ugc3 of our contemporary dining tliisu mcmornblo years wo run up against a comploto blockado n( muck, nLuse, accusations, all written by a sirnll, narrow, lucnpnblc, liirou'uni. cut borrower of brains with nu point In view other than to carry his point, eten nt tho loss of tho great Agtliul 1 111 ul College. As to thu other sldo of the picture oery line that was wrlton b this Incapable Incompetent, eve'y prediction predic-tion that was made liy this vtiruum or vacuums hns "como to naught" and nil decent people could with .nil rnd grnco rlso up and nsk "whv Is It HiIb Bheet can never get in '.ho rl,;ht side? Is It not about time they were getting another prophet?" Doctor Wldtsoe hns made of tho U. A. C the greatest school In the attto, stronger In tho hearts of tho rioiM'lo from north to south, and cast to '."est than tho most optimistic could have f recitBted, whllo Joseph Howell hat pi' thousands of dollars Into ifa' n.tlroiids ns compared to eenU lnvast-rd lnvast-rd lu liko ventures by his accusHi.t on tho Logan Journal. Hutwhy gu lur-thor. lur-thor. Tho good book says "love your enemies." President FJeldslcd, now deceased, nt ono time said "thu Lord might as well hnvo said lovo your pigs, but it Is not reasonable to blip-poso blip-poso he would say you ntuut got it tho pen and root with them.'' I- I ! NAY, NAY, MR, MARSHALL. I Mr. Fred J. Marshall got considerably consider-ably stirred up over n recent tcMclo nppeurlng In our columns signed "Hlchinondlte," und nfter crnwllns Oiil of the change against tho Ills!.' inond pcoplo through tho "paid nd' route, says "It Is n aafo bet Him, the screed was concocted In the Ilouuull-enn Ilouuull-enn office." Wo want to correct this Inference- and to say that thus far whenever wo hnvo had anything lo snj about Mr. Marshall, Mr. Uorilui, Mr. England or any of tho Journal pcoplo we hnvo spoken right out, and usuallly handed It out with ungloved hands, and this policy will bo pur-s.ied pur-s.ied in tho future Of co'iivo we have not Bald much about them but that is not our fault. If they do not do nnythlng that commands our attention wo cannot help It, but they ought not to chnrgo us up with what our correspondents may seo in them worth mentioning. We did say a short time ago that wo trusted Mr. Marshall would bo prl vlleged to retain his office as City Justice, not on nc count of any overabundance over-abundance of ability that he possesses but becauso ho is tho choice of the City Commissioners. Wo did not say anything about his recent Insult to Governor Spry, John Dern, LeGrand Young, Matt Thomas, John Sharp, h. N. Stohl and others because wo thought his romoval from a recent committee, together with tne chagrin on tho faces of hla frlondB, was humiliation onough for him. Wo hnvo not pressed Mr. Marshall for a verification of tho Uostaff quota-, tlon in that memorablo address of his in tho Logan Tabornaclo on Do j ccmbor C, 1911. Hero ho quoted Engineer Uostaff as having said "No ono short of an Idiot would build a dam whero thlB ono Is proposed." Wo have felt that Mr. Marshall -would some day 1 clear himself, und show that Uostaff really did Bay It. Now that the dam la being built, nnd on tho vary spot whero Marshall said Uostaff said "no ono short of nn Idiot would build" Mr. Marshall will certainly clear himself. him-self. And so on ud libitum. No, no, Mr. Marshall tho nrtlclo was not written In this office at all, nor wns It concocted by any of the Hepubllcnn staff. The scrap dear sills sil-ls between yourselves nnd the Ittch-mon Ittch-mon people, nnd bo far as wo are concerned you mny fight It out "In any way that seems heat." "It will all be Interesting to tho public." n |
