SN'tS'"SNSON~J WV -
no such childish proceeding as that o.
President Cleveland in regard to the
fisheries question.
Speaking of the appointment OF
Lamar to the Supreme Bench, the
speaker said: II am shamed to say
that a Republican Senate confirmed
him." (Here death-llke stiffness fell
upon the audience, and after collecting
himself sufficiently to blow his nose,
the speaker continued.)
In closing, General Blackburn said :
81 close by giving you the sentiment,
Liberty and nationality, one and in
separable, now and forever
The chairman read telegram from
General Nathan Kimball, and then, in
answer to loud cries for Dickson, that
gentleman was introduced.
W. H. DICKSON
began by saying: 1 feel like saying as 1
stand here to- night "Hurrsh for the
United States"
The audience took up the cry and
made the house fairly ring.
You must reflect that this old earth
has never looked upon such spectacle
as that seen in this country during the
past few days. Sky millions of free
people have chosen their leader for the
next four years. Omnipotent is the
ballot in the hands of free men.
High as the excitement ran, great as
the issue was, there was not the slight
est disturbance any placs in the coun-
try. There was not even an atfray. In
no other nation on the face of the earth
could such thing happen. This vic
tory is one we'll calculated to fill the
hearts of the American people with Joy.
There are hundreds, nay thousands, of
Democrats who are rejoicing with US
tonight. They did not agree with the
President in his free trade ideas, but
voted as Democrats out of party fealty.
But they are ejoicing with us that the r
rainbow chasers clutched nothing
greater.
Itmeans that the millions of working
men in America will be protected in
their rights; it means strong foreign
policy, and it means that the MANNED
and disabled SOLDIERS VINO gave their
blood that the country might live, may
now receive at least a partial recogni-
ton for the services they rendered.
The election has an especial signih-
canoe in Utah, and it means that in
this Territory, until civilized and
Americanizsd, all hope of Statehood
is gone forever. The events of the
night had been enough to infuse life
and hope into the Oldest moss
back in the Territory. 1t means
that the Mormon Church must
purge itself of all that is
Objectionable and it means that the
sti1f-necked priesthood must be taught
lesson and must acknowledge and
bow to the laws of the Union.
The band struck up Yankee Doodle,
which was almost drowned by the ap-
plause. The glee club then sang
serenade and Judge Mcbride read
the following
RESOLUTIONS:
RESOLVED, That on the election of the
gallant soldier and accomplished states
man, Benjamin Harrison, as President, and
that experienced LEGISLATOR and noble 1s,
President, the Republican Party has
restored itself to the control of national
offices by the selection of leaders who are
an honor to their party, and at the same
time, credit to the whole country.
Second-That while as Republicans we re-
joice in the success Of our party and in the
triumph of its principles, and congralul ,te
the country and ourselves upon our Plor-
ious success. we feel that as citizens of
Utah Territory we have special reasons for
Joy at the result of this election. We have
had grave fears that the reelection of
Grover Cleveland would perpetuate the
power of the Mormon theocracy. and the
escape from that danger gives to this victory
the most exquisite satisfaction.
Third-That as Republicans we are proud
of our party, of its history and achieve
ments Proud of its acknowledgements, now
our represent atives for the next four years.
and express with all reason our faith and
confidence that under their guidance the
nation will advance and prosper, Utah be
and redeemed.
This was unanimously adopted. It
was then resolved to telegraph congra--
tuIations to General Harrison, three
rousing cheers were given to the Presi-
and the successful jollifica-
