l can see the foundation laid her
for just the same scheme which The,
perpetrated in Ogden fifty-tw,
weeks ago next Monday. At tina
time 80 transients, most Of whom
had never before been within In,
corporate limits OF that city. wen

OF registering them. Laughter AMI
applause.l
Since the "Liberal'' party came
into possession OF the municipality
OF Ogden they have multiplied oul
taxes two to tenfold. They nave
given away the water and water
system to an irresponsible adven-
turer, without compensation. They
have closed the avenue to public inn
provements. They have closed
down the tramway and stopped i'm
proving the streets. With inereas-
ing REVENUES they nave not enough
TO pay the increased salaries.
II you want your taxes increased
fivefold, vote for the ''Liberals. -
II you want the Saloons thrown
open dat AID night continuously;
If you want gambling in the high
ways and byways, and prostitutes Of
all nations turned broadcast upon
your streets, ~c.s The "Eiberal''
ticket. This is what We have had
in the city Of Ogden, until your
organs here, for political purposes,
have had to take up the cry against
it. II you want your city and its
police regulations controlled by
United States marshals, vote the
"Liberal'' ticket and sou win get
1t just as we did in Ogden.
Things got so bad in Ogden that the
United States marshal was compell-
ed TO close the dens and drive out
the harlots. II you want TO commit
suicide politically, socially and every
other way vote the ''Liberal" ticket.
But II you want to live freemen,
and enjoy good government, vote
for Clawson, Wells, Clayton, and all
the Peoples nominees. Prolonged
cheering.l They will prohibit these
libertines. They will see that good
government is carried forward, and
your improvements pushed till your
city is the most beautiful on the
American continent.
The trains now bring people who
never saw this place before, TO de-
feat the ballots Of residents. When
the "cantingents'' came 10 Ogden
some Of them got loose and nad to
ask where the City Hall was, TO
vote.
The Utah Commission have been
challenged TO investigate these
frauds, but they have not dared to
do so. Yet they boast Of fair cleo
tions! A member Of and the secre-
tary Of that Commission were pres
ent when the frauds were perpe-
trated, and they "don't have time''
to investigate. In Ogden the Lib
erals" told Us they had the courts,
and they guaranteed immunity from
prosecution to Illegal voters.
