A Democrat.
To the Editor of TIE HERALD:
AS a Provo Democrat desire to saw the
report that President Joseph F. Smith an
nounced himself as Republican at the
Logan conference does not disturb my
faith politically in the least While here
in Provo at the late conference of young
people, MIR. Joseph F. Smith, taught some
very good Democratic ideas which actually
left US TO suppose he was good Democrat
He said, among other things, ne felt
proud Of his associations with the young
people OF Utah; that the young men and
young ladies were not only the purest and
most virtuous TO be found any where on
earth, but they were also the freest in
their pursuit of knowledge; that they en-
ioyed privileges of education which ha
himself had never enjoyed while he was of
school age. He was not ashamed to learn
from these young people, and
OF the young people to inves,ig qis
and learn correct principles and then to
teach Others" If that is not Democratic
doctrine then L am no judge | have
thought perhaps the statements made by
Mr.. Smith at Logan were simply to stand
of some over enthusiastic political demi-
reps who were importuuing him to declare
his political faith. We have some of that

Gratis, Republicans nor mugwumps. There
is a large number of Demireps in Provo
and their principle business has been to
IND who were Democrats aud who Repu bill
cans. One of the first principles OF De-
mocracy is that every man has a sacred
right to his own views and a secret ballot.
and that no party has a right to employ
secret detectives or demireps to influence
or TO bulldoze others.
At meeting held in the Provo court
house on the evening of October %. for the
purpose of organizing the Democratic party
for the municipal elections TO be held in
February, of which an abbreviated report
appeared in THE HERALD. On the first
motion to organize "Demirep'' present in
troduced proposition in effect to abandon
party lines In the election of city officers
This brought on quite an animated discus
sion. Apostle Lyman being present as a
spectator, sat with an amused countenauce
while each Of his two sous-in-laW, Mr. w
h. kiCs and D. ID. Houtz, spoke earnestly
against such a proposition being even en-
tertained. If | were mind-reader would
say Apostle Lyman fully endorsed the ar
guments made against the abandonment of
party lines for any local election purpose.
Mr.. M. Kellogg spoke with some force in
favor OF maintaining party lines in the CITY
elections, and then if Repu blicans desire to
vote for goo Democrats, al right; but
he would not advise Democrats to vote
for Republicans under any circumstances.
Mr.. Kellogg said he was one of the first to
abandon the Liberal party and to identify
himself with the Democratic club organ
lied in Provo, and as the principles of the
club had been adopted in nearly every set
