Show HE HAS BEEN MOST EN FRIEND wm glasmann answers the that have been offer i fid by salt lakers wm glasmann addresses the fol ion ing communication to the republicans of weber county in reply to a question did I 1 see the attack on congressman howell in a local paper yes I 1 saw it it asks the republicans to turn out next friday evening and elect delegates to the state convention who will vote against the nomination re of congressman howell why because congressman howell ald not stop president from appointing william glasmann postmaster of ogdon what do you think OJE that why was glasmann appointed every republican state chairman aiace utah became a state at the close of each campaign certified that mr glasmann had performed among tho best service received by the party they certified that he gave that service free paid his own expenses who in weber county had a better right to apply for the ogden what republican in ogden gave more money to the republican party of utah than J have what republican in ogden gave more free time to the party than I 1 did who in ogden gave more acceptable services who made more sacrifices for the grand old party in ogden than I 1 did from all the rules of american politics who in ogden was entitled to the best office in ogden if I 1 was not 1 I had the endorsement of forty one members out of a total of forty nine of the republican central committee of weber county what better endorsement from a political standpoint could bo secured As to personal endorsements no man from utah ever presented a better ot of personal endorsements to the president of the united states so much for the pull it was of the very best who is it that complains about my appointment the salt lake herald the salt lake tribune and the journal the latter owned by wallard snyder chairman of the american party the herald and tribune are both owned by the kearns kauh clark combine here we have three newspapers owned by the un american combine fighting glasmann and howell why just think of it no matter what takes takes place these papers force the name of glasmann into it it la glasmann hero and glasmann there and everywhere why f I 1 could do all they charge I 1 could do more than any other five men in the state these sheets stand me up and knock me down then somehow I 1 am al loved to climb up again only to be pushed over the precipice again now all this may seem funny to those three un american sheets it so I 1 will have to stand it but what Is the object there Is no doubt that the intent is to break down the influence anil standing of william glasmann wise his name would not be mentioned but why am I 1 too loyal to ogden Is that it have I 1 checkmated check mated these salt lakers ever since they have griea to defeat the lucin cut oft if not why I 1 am not a candidate for any office I 1 now have my commission as postmaster of ogden and can take charge of the office any day the commission can be seen at the standard office therefore the appointment can not be stopped it is made the appointment takes me out of politics for tour years what is the object of the fight william glasmann has never deceived ogden or her people he lias always stood firmly for ogden why not stand for him until you haac a good reason presented for turning him down but who Is tho writer on the local paper who cries aloud for the blood of glasmann he was a salt lake democrat abusing kearns and cannon charging them with crime and debauchery bau chery in a sheet known as truth two years ago when the democratic party was defeated in salt lake city he joined the american party and kearns and cannon through an agent sent him to ogden he boasted in an ogden saloon not long ago that he was an american party man and that he went to salt lake city last fall and voted for the american party ticket even at much inconvenience to himself that is the man who calls on ogden republicans to punish congressman joseph howell because president roosevelt appointed the postmaster of ogden who are complaining about congressman howell in ogden first this salt lake importation who boasted of his ability to write democratic republican or american party rot just as may best he desired to bamboozle the people then we iland halverson doc condom Cond cm B P thomas and per haps a bakers dozen more everybody knows why those men would oppose any good
