D'BRIEN AT WORK.
His Address to the Miners OF
Bingham Last Night.
ais COMPLIMENTS To THE RAT
Ringing Speech in Which Liberal Antics are
Shown Up in Their True COlors-
Resolutions Adopted.

T. B. O'Brien was at Bingham last even
ing and addressed large assemblage OF
the voters of that place on the issues of
the day. Below is what lie said:
Fellow Citizens OF Bingham:
On the evening of June 9th, delivered
IN address here as a Democrat and as such

we have been manufacturing political his

senting diverse factions have nominated
candidates, made their declarations, and
the nominees of each are now soliciting our
suffrages Speaking for myself, can as

Gratis it was a novel scene in the late
Republican convention to hear one of those
so-called Utah Democrats who ''lost his
causen and was himself DISTINGUISHED,
stand upon the floor of a Liberal conven-
ton and pirate about AppomatoX, and, para
doXical as it may seem, nominate man for
recorder whose party favors disfranchise-
ment for Utah born men who never fired on
the flag, and who were smiling at the an
gels whilst they extracted from mothers
bosoms life's fluid at the period of the ''late
unpleasaptness Such an event can only
be accounted for upon the hypo-
thesis that politics make strange
bedfellows, and wound the ethics of politI-
cal honor. That the Liberal party is a dis
tranchising party, l call your attention to
the following resolution, framed by Hon.
&. L. Allen, secretary of the Liberal terri
torial convention, held at the Walker house,
June s, 1890, and which reads as follows:
Resolved, BY the territorial committee Of
Utah, composed OF Democrats and Republicans,
that they heartily endorse the bill now pending
before Congress, introduced in the Senate by
Senator Cullom and in the House by Represen
1ative Struble providing test oath for UTAH,
and earnestly request its passage.
That same Allen is now down upon his
launches begging for the bone Of Young
Utahs franchise for county clerk 1t may
be possible that in moment of absent
mindedness, Young Utah may kiss the
Allen hand that would smite it; but if such
should prove to be the case the admonition
of Byron to the Greeks hereditary bonds
men who would be free themselves must
strike the biow," is only deemed a farce
and not truism by Young Utah. If there
are any Democrats, as alleged, upon the
Liberal territorial committee, which |
emphatically deny, then the national demo-
crazy as represented in both halls of Con-
gress is in undlsguised conflict with them.
Civil death and taxation without represen-
tation is contrary to the tenets of demo
cracy But who is it that leads the Janus
faced Liberal" party, which arrogantly
assumes a monopoly of the political virtue

that of Caesars, "Veni, vidi, vici'' Isl
