Show I THE LIVINGSTONE RALLY WELL ATTENDED Tho Republican rally at the High School Saturday night was well attended. at-tended. Tho Republican quartette furnished the music and Attorney Roy B. Young, candidate for district attorney and Hon. W. D. Livingston were the speakers. Attorney Young said tho people of Box Elder felt like It was time that Cacho county had tho district' judge I and as Judge Call had aerred now fur two terms there was no doubt but that Attorney Law would be elected. el-ected. The same applied to Attorney Attor-ney Roy D. Thatcher who has been I district attorney for two years which ivenough for any man. ' Mr. Llvlngstono said tho safest citizen' Is not always a Republican, cor is" he always a Democrat, but that the best and safest citizen Is the one that comes out ready to listen and discuss public questions. The 'dangerous citizen Is one that stays at home and refuses to listen to the discussion of the Issues of the day. He urged all to study tho Issues, lis-ten lis-ten to the discussions and said that a victory decided on-such a basis would brIngno fears fot America. Ho then discussed- tn'ies and said that Utah was an unsafe place, for a nan or woman with a pocket book, and that never In the history of America has the hordes of oiflce-holders oiflce-holders fattened at the puDllc expense ex-pense as during the past beven jears. Not fattened on our prosperity but fattened on our misfortunes, fatten-1(11 fatten-1(11 on war. I Tho speaker then discussed Con-Ijrcssman Con-Ijrcssman Welllng's keynote speech, lind incidentally ran a few railroad trains through" it. He read the op-a'.pg op-a'.pg paragraph, "This Is a proud iif for Democracy. I am not thlnk-lig thlnk-lig at this moment of Its past. I im thinking ot Its future''' Tho tpeakcr declared that tho best way to Judgo tho future vcjs by tho past jeUio did not blamo Mr. Welling for lot wanting to think of Democracy's past". Thoso Democratic days of se- I cession, of Cfevcland soup houses, of tliln cltlzcnB and ravished women in I&lco, of President Wilson's days W "watchful waiting' and Baker's 4nJRiank God we are not prepared," leo all Incidents calculated not to Ibrtys-thc best of thoughts. Ho read .again from tho speech "Strango Gods hayo taken tho place of old Idols," and asked "What did ho mean?" The past three or four Democartlc campaigns havo bceff dominated by such men as William Jennings Bryan, but tho last one tho bosses ot Tammnny took control. Murphy, Nugent, Brennan and Tag-tart, Tag-tart, tho qua'rtetto of Tammanies that Mr. Bryan declares represent the worst element In politics, captur ed tho party and nominated Mr. Cox. "Were these the strango Oods that havo taken tho place of old Idols that Mr. Welling was thinking about? Ho asked all to read tho WeHlng ad-' ad-' Cress Wrtl bMA that It the Democrat-' Democrat-' S$3rcmmUtC0 dId not have BUfflclont Wnds to publish It broadcast ho fjwould contribute to the fund. Mr. Llvlngstono said that all tho Progressives were In tho Republican Wd except thoso few who woro cat-In? cat-In? at tho "flesh pots" Ho said tho US southern electoral votes woro dangerous clement to tho country. "There aro some Democrats who would voto for a yellow dog and thero aro some Ilopubllcans who would voto for a jollow dog." ho declared, "but It Is tho largo number num-ber ot Independent voters that constitute con-stitute tho safety of tho nation. Tho Tammany bosses, the 'strange gods' of which Mr. Welling speaks, took tho 136 vest pocket votes of tlw south, and with that as a nucleus figured out a way to elect Cox, with tho help of tho wet votes of sufficient suffi-cient other states." Ho then quoted Mr. Bryan to back up his argument. Ho said Governor Cox and Governor Gover-nor Bamberger were twin brothers In somo respects. Cox had Increased Ohio's expeneo 200 per cent, and Bamborger had Increased Utah's ev. penso 20.0 per cent. In Utah thero was an Increaso ot 165 office holders In tho stato, at an extra expend t $1,000 a day or $30,000 per month, or 365,000 per car. Not hinting at "Joy riding'' he declared that under un-der Governor Spry tho stato had six automobiles In uso, whllo now tho state has 75 automobiles In use. On tho League ot Nations he said "Wo do not have to sign any cm-tract cm-tract with other nations, for tho peoplo of the world to know what America will do." Ho felt It extremely ex-tremely far fetched to claim any sort of Inspiration for tho leaguo when tho name of God does not appear ap-pear In tho document. ' Ho closed by delivering a fitting eulogy on bohnlt of Senator Smoot, declaring that ho had traveled through every stato from California to Mnlno during tho summer and In many statos had found that tho peoplo peo-plo did not oven know tho names of their own senators but In every stato tho namo ot Senator Smoot was a household word. County Chairman George D. Costo I presided. |
