IN TOOELE COUNTY.
The Little Republic" Solid for
Democracy.
Great Applause Follows the Mention of the
Name Of RawIins-Ihe People
Are Enthusiastic.

In no part Of the territory are the Demo-
Gratis more wide awak and more enthusiastic
cally in earnest than in Tooele county.
Saturday was great day for the Demo-
cratic cause. Two rousing meetings were
held, one at Tooele in the afternoon and
the other at Grantsyille at night. AT each
place the halls were crowded to far more
than seating capacity and the speaker was
listened to with marked attention through
out the entire time of the addresses.
The Democratic candidate for delegate
was unable TO meet the appointment as an
bounced, and at the special request of the
central committee Mr.. Alfales Young was
designated TO make good the engagement,
ana he discharged the duty imposed.
At Tooele the meeting was held at L
IN. and was attended by people from all
the surrounding country. The Grantsville
band was in attendance and aided IN max
ing the occasion a pleasant one.
In the evening many of the citizens at
tended the Grantsville celebration,
which was credit TO the enterprise
and enthusiasm of her Democrats.
A torch light procession was the salient
feature OF the evening and was conducted
with most creditsble success.
Everyone who seemed interested in the
political questions OF the day turned out,
and the speaker was greeted with the
warmest applause at every turn. He
handled his points we'll, and in response TO
a number OF interrogations and several
spirited Interruptions, made the most
clever hits. The history Of The politics,
the tariff, especially the wool and sugar
questions, we're handled in detail and with
the skill of one Thoroughly informed as to
his subjects.
When he came to Utah questions and the
present campaign he was thoroughly at
home. The "plan of campaign" as mapped
out and executed by the Republican COM
mlttee was revised by the most caustic
touches. From the letters of credit to
the Sunday school recommendations of the
MISUNDERSTANDING the illustrated mug
ge:s-and the blesting appeal for help on
sneep basis, nothing was omitted. An
over Jealous Repu blican became so aroused
IS to dispute the genuiness of the Crane
letter, but when shown the handwriting
admitted its genuiness and subsidized, with
the remark that no one would have sup
posed the imported chairman, who protects
Utah herdsmen by importing others from
Canada at reduced rates, was SO devoid of
common, ordinary, every day gumption
The addresses were among the best of
the campaign, and when the Official state
ments Of the heads of the dominant church
were contra5ted with the attempts of a
few would-be leaders on the Republican
side to drag into the canvass the special
aid and influence OF one or two who stand
high in ecclesiastical circles, the applause
was osafening. The picture buoksn were
not forgotten, and the points made
called forth the most uproarious laughter
and widest applause. a manly statement
OF the true issue, the earnest and sincere
in which the Democratic platform
and lis candidate had gone before the peo-
pie, were all told with the best effect
Whenever the name of Rawlins was men
toned it was greeted with enthusiastic
applause. Tooele county is honestly in the
battle and is fighting on the plan OF
straight-out party division and non-inter
ference by any religious denomination-a
battle of principles and men, and its sup
port will go on the side of the people-the
