THE POLITICAL CHAMELEON.

The Enquirer the other night de-
nounced the Democrats as traitors to
home industry, for asking that the tar
if be reduced, but read what this
journal said in January:
Senator INGALLS,, in his speech in
the United States the other day. was
not far out OF the way when he sup-
gested that the country which was
once the land of the free and the
home Of the brave was on the verge
Of becoming the home of the million
aire and the land of the slave. High
tariff makes the rich richer. and the
poor poorer. What prosperity it gives
country is not enjoyed by the masses,
bat by the monopolies.
In the same issue, under the head
ing, Evils Of High Tariff" the En-
qulrer uttered some sensible things,
among which was the following:
Smuggling goods to avoid custom
duty has brought about some shrewd
tricks. Often do we hear of many
yards of lace discovered in a lady's
hustle, or several silk dresses being
worn. That serves TO illustrate the
evil of high tariff. A small duty can
be collected. but too high duty will
always lead to smuggling. The same
for instance, as high liquor license;
dealers will procure a license when
1alrly within their reach, but make
the price something exorbitant and
nquor VIII be sold en- the sly, 1t is

PUSSY WANTS A CORNER.

The Republican organ of this city
has been saying some very funny
things the last few days, but the most
amusing was its declaration that 1.-THE
Enquirer was the best political guide
for the people of Utah county," and
that whichever party it espoused
would be the winning party of the
county. Does the Enquirer suppose
that the people of this county are mere
children to chase after it in its wild
game Of pussy wants a corner?'' 1t
makes ones head dizzy to attempt to
follow it in its zig-zag business. One
week it tells the Peoples party to
hang together, and abuses men for
joining either of the national parties
before that party has dissolved. 1t
severely criticized.sthe Peoples party

REFUTED.

Our Republican friends have rung
into this campaign of education" a
matter that has no business in this po-
litieal discussion. We refer to the
assertion which has several times been
made, that the Mormon people have
been more severely and unfairly dealt
with by the Democratic than by the
Republican party. The evident object
is to induce people of that Church to
ally themselves with the latter. If
any thinking persons are to be pur-
suaded by such sophistry, let them
study these facts:
IA Republican Congress passed
the law Of 1862 and it was signed by
a Republican President.
2-The same is true Of the CULLoM
bill of 1866.
3-The EDMUNDs law of 1882, dis
franchising 1900 people without trial
or even hearing, placing the election
machinery into the hands of the Utah
Commission Ia la LODGE Force BILL
with its other iniquitious provisions,
was passed, signed, sealed, delivered
and executed by the Republican party.
4-On the passage of the EDNUNDs-
TUCKER bill every man in either
House that dared to raise his voice
against it was a Democrat, and as has
been already shown in THE DISPATCH,
ffty-one Democrats and two Republi-
cans only voted against its passage.
5-When the escheat provision of
the latter law came before the Su-
preme Court of the U. S., every Dem
ocratic member of that body was
solid against its Constitutionality, but
every Republican upheld it.
Con the Idaho test oath case the
record Of that court is just the same;
Republicans deemed it right to dis
franchise Mormons without trial,
Democrats thoygno noc.
When we STRUBLE bill, which
had for its object the disfranchisement
of every Mormon in Utah, was before
the committee of the House last Win
ter, true to their record the Republi-
can members voted to recommend its
passage, while every Democrat record
ed himself against it.
S-Eyery one rememb mberS the kindly
spirit of GROVER CLEyELAND's ad-
ministration, as compared with that
which preceded it. All remember how
the Democratic Governor was sent to
the penitentiary to offer pardon to all
who would give up polygamy. No
one can forget that Judge SANFORD
was removed by Republican Presi-
dent because he dared to execute the
EDMUNDs law in moderation, while
his predecessor, the author of the ter
rible segregation doctrine, was reap
pointed in his place.
9-Year 10y year the Republican
Utah Commission has made savage re-
perts against the people of Utah; and
the only men Of that body who have
been manly enough to say kind word
or make minority report have been
Democrats, and in each case they have
been roundlY abused for it by the "life
long, organ of Republicanism, the
Salt Lake Tribune.
Again we say, if we are to bury the
dead past, these matters ought not to
be dug up and recounted, but 1t has
been dragged in by the other side, and
we say let these facts answer.
The Dispatch. [volume] (Provo City, Utah) 1891-1895, 1891-06-17

of Salt Lake for disbanding, and yet
before the week closed it comes cut as
the champion of Republicanism, aud
that, too, before any action was taken
disbanding the Peoples party of Utah
county.
For many years the Enquirer has
been a lover of Democracy, showing
the evils of the tariff system, strong
centralized government, and the many
other Republican ideas. Even within
the last month has it denounced Re-
publicanism. Its readers have been
confronted with column after column
of figures showing the evils of the op-
pressiye system called tariff; lengthy
editorials denouncing the unconStitu
tionality and wickedness of the LODGE
Force bill: the tyranny of Tom B.
REED and the holding of MCKINLEY
up to execration. Now it shuts its
eyes to all the truths it has ever ut
tered in favor of Democracy, and swal-
lows the Republican pill, LODGE, Nc
KINLEY, REED, and all.
1t turns it's back upon its friends,
who have been following it. Just as
the golden shore of Democracy is in
sight, it wheels about, and without
giving any reason for its sudden
change, tells the people it has been
leading them astray all these years;
but that now it is on the right track.
Friends, will you jump on this wa
Yering barque and trust it to pilot you
over the turbulent sea of politics? Are
you sure it will not desert you when
you get out into mid ocean? Should
its head be turned by the Farmers AL
lance, or some other party, may it not
go off with them to the North Pole?
In other words, can you depend upon
it being Republican for any considera-
BILE length of timeP Its past history
answers, NO!

The World Enriched.

The facilities of the present day for the
production of everything that will con-
duce to the material welfare and comfort
of mankind are almost unlimited and

perfect laxative known, as it is the only
remedy which is truly pleasing and re-

JOHN MORGAN during his speech at
the Republican rally on Monday night
gave out some one-sided statistics and
attempted to show that in states which
gave Democratic majority the great
est illiteracy prevailed. He indis-
criminately classed Ohio, Pennsyl-
Nania and Illinois as Republican, and
reached out his net and scooped in
Massachusetts. THE DISPATCH re-
spectfully refers the gentleman to the
last official Congressional Directory,
where he will find the following facts:

forced by three or four college players. There
were but two men from Yale in the team, one
of whom was regular member and the other
friend of his, who was taken in because the
Alerts did not have full team being back on
one of their best players. 1t
was also said that the ''Champion
Club" did the Alerts up in a style that was dis
heartening. Why did not the Sport Hill re-
porter give the score, SO that the public in
general might know how badly the Alerts
were "done up" Thr score was 20 to 10 in ia.

The Water company have published a
card saying, 1.-THE only obstacles in the
way of moving forward in the construct
ion of their works are what seem to said
company the exorbitant and unreason-
able demands of Thomas r. Lees and
John d. Wood. Mr. Lees has given the
company price in writing which he will
damages to him by reason of the location
of the pipe line over his land. The com
pany are forced to say that they cannot
obtain any price from Mr. Wood, which
they can think of paying and that his
claims are, in the opinion of the agents
OF the company, SO exorbitant and un-
reasonable that they cannot accede to
them and that, by reason of his demands,
nothing further can be done for the pres
emit toward the construction of their
works. The company regret to say this
much, but the truth compels it and we
can say nothing more, only we shall in
some way, as soon as possible, overcome
in a reasonable and proper manner these
obstacles and 60 forward to complete the

as ''pompons" and are much smaller, still
double and beautiful. Mr. Gray has a
large bed of peoples, the colors of which,
as he says, will "far Guido the tints of
the rainbow" These peoples, by the
way, are grown from seed brought from
France expressly for Mr. Gray. They are
of different colors. He has had early
vegetables galore, but now has especial
pride in a bed of white onions. They are
the genuine French pickle onion, he says,

Some little time ago, when Mr. Bedford
was laying out his handsome and extern
sive grounds at Green's Farms, he incor-
porated part of the green, which had
been considered public property. A
number of the citizens placed an injunc-
ton upon Mr. Bedford, restraining him
from proceeding with the work. Judge
Hall was applied to and he decided that
Mr. Bedford had the right to enclose the
grounds. Now that Austin Jennings,
for similar reasons, eujoined the railroad
from demolishing the lawn in front of
his house, claiming that it was his, not
public property, the road asked Judge
Hall to dissolve the injunction, on the
ground that the ground belonged to the
town and had been settled for previous
ly. Mr. Jennings used as part of his ar
gument the dissolution by Judge Hall of
the former injunction. This green is
said to have been one of the ancient train
ing grounds, although, unlike one at
not now reverted to the State.
