Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1890-11-07
WHEN. WHERE AND WHAT.


THE News says that in the late
campaign the Liberal csndidaie'gross-
" abused John T. Game. VIII it
state where and when that abuse was
delivered and what the nature Of il
was? Il cannot"
The foregoing is from the"Liberal'
organ Of which the ex-candidate is
eIItor. In reply We nave to say,
YES. we will state when and where
and what. 1t is not TO be expected
that we shall fill up our columns by
reproducing all his abuse of Mr..
Game, a few samples will be suffi-
cient.
At Brigham City, October 9TH,
SO the Tribune reports, he said:
"a Delegate to Congress ought TO be
able to make known some OF its pro-
duets besides babies. He ought to be
a man who would give to the eastern
men and the world some idea OF what
Dame Nature have stored our hills and
our valleys with. Mr.. Game may
have the knowledge Of what our re-
sources are, but he has never given
any Of this knowledge away"
This is a straight lie, and lying
about a man is abuse. Mr.. Game
has appeared before several commit
tees Of both Houses and given de-
tailed information about the mater
ial resources Of Utah, agricultural,
stock-raising. manufacturing, min
ing and commercial. Some Of these
speeches have been printed as con-
gressional documents and have
been circulated throughout the
United Stetes. Every copy is
printed and official refutation Of c.
&. G0odwin's calumny.
In Slnpete he repeated his false
hoods, and at Mount Pleasant, in
that county, his paper says:
He pictured Gaines do-nothing
record in Congress"
At Eureka on the 18th of October
the Tribune reports in its issue Of
the 2s.h:
He said that Ulah's representative
in Congress had never in eight years
raised his voice in favor Of silver or
irrigation, but that he had favored
giving ], so, 900 acres OF our lands TO
the Colorado Indians"
This is another lie. Mr.. Caine
did not favor the measure. He OPP
posed it but, when its passage seemed
imminent, cOntended for the pay
meut to the citizens Of all lands and
improvements they would have to
vacate.
On Monday, Nov. ,, In the Elec-
tric Light Hall, he said, as per
Tribune report:
"Mr. Game had the advantage Of
him. He could only promise what be
would do IL elected. Mr.. Caine had
been there eight years and had done
nothing, and now said that he would
repeat his record If elected"
Speaking Of his tour through vsri-
Gus counties, he said:
We told them that had Utah had a
delegate who would have labored to
put silver on parity with gold, that
the prices Of their products would
long ago have increased % per cent. -
That is to say, one Delegate with
out a vote could have accomplished
what a large number Of Members
with votes were unable to effect.
The implication that John T. Game
did not work for the silver interest
is false, the assertion that he
could have done what c. &. Good
win says he might have done is a
Palpable lie.
On Sunday, October 26th, in his
first editorial column G. c. Goodwin
raved against John T. Game and
among many other things said that
= vote for him was this:
Vote to legalize vice; vote TO make
the establishment Of harems in Utah q
sacrament OF God"
This with much more to simllsi
effect was abuse of Mr.. Caine, 4,
everybody knows who is acquainted
with his private and official coclse.
ON the 3Ist Of October, in tn,
same column, he poured out TRAD,
on Mr.. Game in regard to the publ,
building for salt Lake City, charg
ing Mr.. Game with "neglecting III,
matter altogether,o saying that 'T
was his duty to keep track Of tn,
measure and 10 write the report IL
favor" This he has repeated agaiI
and again in face Of the fact that j
was MT the Delegates "duty'' l.
write the report, that he introduce,
the bill for the appropriation, tina
the bill was delayed through
the fight Of the salt Lake faction
sIuabbling for the east or west sid
sites, that the report was actual,
prepared, and that It was substantial
~ Mr.. Gaines report which h,
drew for a previous appropriation
hill for the same purIose.
On the 18th Of November c. G
Goodwin published the followIn,
Ibelous abuse Of his opponent:
When he was secretary Of Brig
ham Young he learned TO bethe abjec
slave Of his master. He learned a
that time that It was the duty OF a gooC
saint to implicitly obey directions, n,
matter how strained it made a mani
relations with the truth.
He still holds to that belief. Their
i no. a moment, night or day, wher
he exercises his own Judgment. except
in the struggle to be obedient 10 hi
masters"
II the times have changed, and Il
the Mormon people have in any
respects changed with them. in stat
Ing tina: fact, Mr.. Caine ought to add;
4 am speaking merely for the people
As formyself there is no more change
in me than there Is in the mummies
tnlt for three thousand years have
slept in their cereInents in the tenn
pies Of worn-oat and decayed
Egypt"
Everyone OF these assertions is a
lie, and it Is ell abuse Of Mr.. Caine.
These are but specimens Of the kind
Of attacks made by c. c. Goodwin
upon his political opponent for the
sake OF drawing votes to himself. II
he wants more samples OF his own
