c. c. Goodwin, Editor of the Salt Lake 7ifb:
So you did not make "a mistake and
start for Washington, thinking that 5000
majority was yours But you are not feel
ing well, are you. They say the, swan
sings shortly before it dies. Do not think
l am about to liken you to swan. You
might pass for goose, eh What l was
thinking was that if a swan can sing be-
fore it dies, why not buzzard Are you
about to die, that you repeat your croaking
in regard to mes Or are you already dead
and giving me "hark from the-tombs 90
You want the Mormons to save my COM
munications. Do you think it possible that
anything can write in behalf of a robbed
and oppressed people could be, under any
circumstances, injured by the enmity of a
man who has for years degraded his gifts
as writer to the work of a hired defamer
of better people than himself? You ''pre-
dict'' direful things. Is not that due to the
condition of your liver You have been
predicting ''war'' in Utah for years; you
predicted mighty uprising of what you
are pleased to call Liberals" Though why,
nobody knows) as the result of your going
around the circle with your new Saliva
ton Army outfit. But your predictions
Indicate only the wish that is father to the
thought. Have you not done you best to
precipitate the 'war' you want in Utah?
Have you not worked to despoil the Nor
mon people! Have you not encouraged,
aided and abetted the taxation OF the Nor
mon people out of their homes! Why should
they give heed to your croaking, when you
attemp to destroy my work. They have
shown themselves capable of taking care
of their own affairs and need thank you
for nothing. You think some Rabbi, of
whom l know nothing, wrote in ''better
form" than do Perhaps he had not had
my experience in handling such men as
you. You think Mr.. O'Brien is "more
generous man" than |. Is that because he
did not notice your dirty diatribes! You
threaten me, you warn me against the ''ln-
evitable." Have you employed some Lib
eraP' registrar to strike my name from the
list of the living! Have you hired some
HOLSTER to kill mes Have you that lying
apostate yet in your employ securing
| the land to find material to publish!
You have been doing that for a year and a
half, have you not! Are you waiting to
manufacture evidence! Did you not send
a man thousand miles and more to hunt
up something that might be used to 'kill
that ID Ellis." Did not you and your
antl-Mormon clique shut me out of the
courtroom! Did you not attack me in your
paper and then deny me hearing? Have
you not attacked every man and woman
who has ever opposed you IN your deter
mination to down the Mormon peopler'
In the same column wherein you once
more emptied your dung upon me, you said,
''All there is to religion is to love God and
to do good to men," Devil and deity on the
same lips only "a STICK apart! If we
measure your religion" by the ''good' you
have done to men in Utah, would it not re-
quire very powerful microscope to find q
trace of it! If it were subjected to that
lire test" you spoke of, would there be
found even a trace! Are you not playing
the role of devil when you talk Of
loving God! Don't you know that the ty
rant the liar, the slanderer cannot love
God! Once you had spasm of conscience
that was years ago, however, and wrote
There should be an unwritten code among
men and women compelling the closing OF
every door against the slanderer." Die
you write that, or was it written by some
decent fellow, who had charge in your alb
sence! If there were such "coden in ex-
istence would not every door of every
house and clean household be closed agains
you!
You threaten me, you, Are yol
not joker! l have twice asked yol
" SiNO O'Si pay I10 pdib "
the sianderer and let US see what it is yol
. are banking on in your sneaking attack!
upon me. If you are not the "blatan
fraud' you charge me with being, why d.
you not speak out! Are you rattlesnak,
that can only discharge venom? If yol
were truthful man 1 would defy yol
TO do your worst. Since you are NOT
/ can only wait to see what manner o
slaughter you propose. But be sure shal
meet you. For months you have been work
ing to drive me away because would no
countenance your fight against the Mormon
people. l have helped to kill your 'Uta
Liberalism and l shall help to bury it.
3 you live long enough 1 shall help make
f man of you. That you shall continue t
!, villify me does not matter. The poisone
/ rat dies Of rage in its hole, but is Harmless
: in its death agonies. Do you not believe i
your heart that you are poisoned rat! Ar
> you not sure that the people of Utah hav
said, 1--WE want no more GoodWinism!" d
1 you not know beyond question that the pei
4 pie want peace and prosperity, and ths
!. your ceaseless attempts to create strife al
to-day the only bar to Utah's progress. d
you think that you are the Old Man of tn
Sea on the neck of the "Young Utah
Sailor, and cannot be thrown! Let the re
; cent contest be a warning to you, and &c
o into line or "the inevitable will strike yo
: before you are ready TO go.
