thing with them but show his power. AS
he has not explained this, l take it for
granted he means the power of might. Oh;
plusn for modern Liberalism;
and for man who would have
Uncle SAM lower himself on a level
with being who lives, and whose aspir-
atoms are no higher than the roof of his
mouth The idea of a person living in a
community and making it his home and
then trying to make mischief, trying to
make trouble and illwill between this pecu-
ilar class and the general government. 1t
is my opinion, had he styled himself "a
lover OF mischief making,n he would have
come nearer the truth.
This "love of freedom advises ''Uncle
SAM to use force. suppose he means the
force OIL armies, for what else can he mean
since he has used .'UncIe Sam to show his
power to make might right. Now, why
uld not This mountain boy show d thimble-
Iul Oh sense and advise Uncle Samn to
choose class or men to investigate the
dolngs OF this peculiar class'' and the
principles OF government, SO similar to a
monarchy, and see ii he could not lead
them up to his level for our best states
men have long since given up the idea of
driving people and have resorted to lead
ing tnem by explaining to them the self gov
eminent, by showing them the principles
OF olHerence between right and wrong and
make men OF them, not merely tools! Ii
tnls all important mouatain boy had adj
Vlsed Uncle Sam to choose men who are
not thirsty for the control Of the territory,
put are alter justice; men who are above
notlclng every idle word and fanciful
theory of men or of boys that are contemp-
tlpie enough to prove untrue to their com
rades and best friends. Show me their
klnd OF men, who, after you have appealed
To thelr understanding and proven them in
opposition to truth and liberty, justice and
freedom; after you have done this, will
nnu you men. who are true lovers of truth,
lustice and freedom, and will join you
heart and soul.
Again this slower of jusfice'' takes it
upon himself to Judge of the young people
OF Davis county by saying that there is a
leellng OF luminosity fostered against the
general government, and that, too, without
giving any reason to support his Judgment.
NOW, the writer of this piece takes it upon
himself to infer that he is as
Wen acquainted with the young peo-
pie OF Davis county as is
met with them in their Y. M. M. l. A. He
mas worked with them in the field; he has
visited them at their homes and in nearly
every place where the young people are in
Inc haolt Of mingling, and have never
neard any expression against the govern
ment nor heard any sentiment that any one
coulu INFER that there was any animosity
e2lstng among them. But the young
people do know that their fathers are not
natural born fools, nor are they intellectual
lmbeciles.
NOW, he says, this feeling is the same
among the old, and without giving any rea-
son for his judgment, as much as to say, s'f
say so 1t must be 500 and he acts both the
lawyer and the judge.
NOW, as to this feeling existing among
the old, viii say it may exist among those
VINO Delleve they have been wronged;
among those who have been driven from
their homes in the early days of this
peculiar class" and have suffered hard
salps and losses of life and prosperity; but
even then this feeling is not against the
general government, but against those who
LOOK the law in their own hands. the law Of
MOB violence. and those who assisted them
In their fiendsh work.
This mountain boy'' goes on thus: eve
the loyal clblzens of Davis county, extend
an invitation to our friends who wish i

US to free our territory from the tyranny
which SO long has kept her in bondage

county, extend, an invitation to our
friends" and loyal citizens ''who wish a
cheap home to come and buy corner lot,n
or a whole block, that they may have four
corner lots ''in our county while land is
cheap, and help usn to teach this mountain
boy and one or two others to think little
deeper than the surface, give him knowl-
