As he SEES THEM.
A Liberal Workingman Oh the
Two Tickets Now Up.
A FEW SLIGHT COMPARISONS.
The WorkIngmen Have Good Ticket and One
That They Should be Proud
to Vote.

Our workingmen, as welt as honest Lib
erals, should know something OF the ticket
put forth by the Alta club and Free Ma
sonic tribes, especially when those immac
ulate crews try to belittle the working
mems honest ticket.
1t is evident that the manipulators of the
Liberal party are narrow, discriminating
and poor judges Of men.
l see that professor c.. E. Allen is put
up for county clerk. Who is this fellow,
and on what meat is he fed that he should
be held up before the public and offered
every lucrative position. What is he pro
fessor off, He was simply common teacher
in one-horse academy. He left that and
went cattle herding. That was too much
for him, and he managed to have something
to do with mines and bunked at Bingham.

is of small calibre of brain, but pugnacious
as a bulldog. Yet he often tells his au-
dience that he is not "carnaptious" or fond

He was clerk of the Liberal committee,
succeeding Hyams He was clerk OF the
Liberal county committee He was Chief
registrar for Salt Lake county, and thus,
like his predecessor associates Clute and
| HyamS and others, is worked into candl-
date. He was president of a ward Liberal
club in this city, and now is president of
the Young Mems Christian association. |
forget how many more offices he held.
Amt he a big fellow! A man of very or
binary capacity, nevertheless. His great
gifts are cheek and ambition-iust the
things for a pedagogue and tricky pollti-
clan. Lord, what fools we mortals be!
Can't we make him something more. He
is ambitious for more prominent position.
How do l know. Why, look at the bid he
gave wnen he accepted the nomination for
clerk of the county. According to the Trib-
,tle's report-and that delectable paper
never lies he said che should be excused
fors landing there with pride in his heart,
etc, ETC., but further remarked. But
back of this county fight there is greater
one, which we must win, and that is the
election OF delegate to represent US In
Congress. Let Weber and Salt Lake join
with Summit (counties) and 20 power can
shut us (me) out of the Congress of the
United States.n What do you think of
that for a covert, sly bid for delegate.
Don't you see it. OF course any man with
half an eye can read between the lines that
he wants to be that candidate fer delegate.
1t was altogether out of place To speak on
that subject when accepting the clerk 5
nomination; but ''the wish was father to
the thought" Workingmen, vote him out,
and perhaps his ambition will cool. Are
hon in hn .itrr hot
offices that professor must have SC
many thrust upon him?
THE OTHER SIDE.
! Fergus Ferguson was born here; and is a
youngman of character, education and abil
ity superior to the many named professor.
He Will serve the public well; and he de-
serves our vote. While he went hand aud
glove with the corrupt Liberal com
mlttee, until he could stand their
fraud nc longer, he was a
good, straight man. But because he es-
poused the honest workingmens cause the
scrubs of the Tribune assail him in q
cowardly, vicious manner. Like boys that
at last fall out, the meauest and most
.. vicious calls out rogue, and tells the secrets
that yon fellow told him. l venture to say,
that the tell-tale gossip that the Tribune
vomits is not half true. What could be
meaner than man to tell the secrets OF his
companion because he simply fell out, and
I add Jheretos But the SANDER and scandal
of Ferguson's detractor are grand recon
: mendation; and every honest Wor6ingmau
and Liberal will vote for him and put him
in office
But what shall l say of Henry Page for
recorder! He is also a multiple Office
holder, a chronic Office holder that couldn',
make living at his home. He was regis
trar and used that Office to secure his nomi
: nation; though Powers ''helped the lame
dog over the style" in his sly way. Tne
though he didn't fit mid Siegel,'' nol
''roide wild Sheridan" by iabers, he

offices are written on this Page, and yet
/, he wants more, like Oliver Twist. A mar

their doom is sealed
