Show ONE OF TIIE LAST. The following arrived too late for publication as cur last. It is rather late, but we give it. Fairview, July 29, iSqo. Editor Register: Our Mt. Pleasant litendsaie new n tne field, zealously woiking to dpline the County Scat. A 1 icelv ttimtiifd couveva'ice caities the hr.ishlmtid on a t mr, that is expected to last for Pome days to come, and the good Citizens win) were invited to pir-iicipate pir-iicipate in the Convention, aie also to be formally roused up from their political lethargy by the swest strains of music and by speeches fiom those that our progressive S ster City has put to the from for brilliencyand eloquence, In the history of San Pete, we have not heretotoie seen anything to match the present campaign, and never before, has been seen, men go to work with more zeal, hope and enthusism. It is to be regretted that the place that the Convention selected for County Seat by its location is not such as to iuspite all parties interested in the move, by the same faith and confidence as has been displayed by the Mt Pleasant representatives; re-presentatives; as for all that has been aid and don it. behalf ot the place selected and against the place now occupying the honor of being the capital of cur thrifty County, it is not right, nor good, for policy Sake, to hide the fact that there are too many who have their missgivings as to the final outcome, when the question shall have been f ubmiltedto the advice of the peoplejand shall we vet be subjected, as in the past, to the inconvenience and injustice of having to go to Manti to do our County business, a stromr Icelinir . will tneuail that men, in whose, good judgment the pe. pie have placed their trust, aie to be held responsible, when they through Selfish motives, forgot to constder what is lor the good of all parties concerned, and peiniit their ambition and energies to be miss directed. Had tphraim been selected their could have have been no doubt as to the outcome. The move ol the County Seat would have been effected, and the people of the North and South of our county would equally have felt that such a move would have been proper and just. Hut their is neither time nor place for such arguments now nor ears to listen to them. Ji will be better time to rellect upon th.s afier the election in a lew days to come. Le' the South be chastised chas-tised when theie is an opportunity. Give Ephraim a rap, and Manti the City of rocks, graveyards, lakes and turnips that never could grow in its rocky soil must be made to fee! for once how it is to be pu: under the rod. Hut the County Seat w ill be moved to Mt. Pleasant when the majority of our voters shall be convinced that proper and riyht to put it there. Mauti may retain it for some time to come till we learn to act w iser, and if it is time that she does not hold her grip on our auecttous, sue win yet noia it on our packets. Yours, dw |
