The Alarming Growth of the Republican
Party

The Alarming Growth of the Republican
Party
In view OF the alarming growth of the
Republican party in this city, both the
Liberal and Democratic organs are ap-
pealing to their previous followers to stand
by their ticket. The statement that the
Republicans are no longer in it, is not
heard except as chestnut from some pre-
vlous resident of this city. The popularity
OF the Republican candidates is the general
talk OF the community. Bets have been
placed, OF even money, that Heber NJ.
Weus VIII be the next mayor of Salt Lake
city. In view of the candidates on the
other ticket this is not surprising. 1t is at
TINS time that the young Republican of
Utah rises most conspicuously as a true
representative of the welfare and progress
OF It's people. Let them on this occasion
rally around this young standard bearer,
and show by an overwhelming vote, that
he Is the choice of the people of this city.
1t Is almost needless to comment
upon that poor old man whose intellect has
been exerted only in that channel, adverse
to charity and the brotherhood of man. AS
he looks out from his casIle on the hill and
sees springing up all around him in this
beautiful valley, where he has spent so
many years, modern institutions, thoughts
and ideas, it makes him angry with him
sell, and he regrets that he should be uu-
earIhed to be placed as a sacrifice upon the
altar Of Liberalism.
MIR. Lett, while a respected citizen OF the
community, could not be expected to com
pare with the man who has grown from
childhood to manhood conyersant with the
wants and interests of the people. Vote
Tor Heber NJ. Wells for mayor and Won will
90 not only an honor to the young men OF
Utah, but will have done honor to your-
selves as citizens of Salt Lake city.

HIS STAR HAS Net.

The pathetic appeal Of Boss Powers in
the Liberal territorial. convention on
Thursday evening was sufficient to almost
elicit the sympathy of those whom he has
denounced as traitors. 1t was really touch
ing to see that political structure that only
Few days before he viewed as impregna-
BILE, threaten to fall before his very ewes
and engulf him in its ruins. The Repub-
licans in the Liberal party showed at that
convention that their eyes were being
opened and could see clearer and clearer
the perfdy of the Tuscarora Sachem. We
predict that this is the last territorial con-
ventlon that will ever be held by the
Liberal party.

states that no man can locate in voting
precinct intending to move away the day
after election The Republican party is
provided with the evidence, that men have
been located in the Fourth precinct, with
the understanding that they are to reside
there until after election only; therefore,
let it be understood that the Republicans,
while disposed not to abridge the right of
any legal voter, are fully determined that
the bulldozing process of two years ago
snail not be repeated in this election.
While not disposed to scrutlnize to closely
the methods that have been adopted by our

Contraction.

The claim is now boldly set mp that
there never has been any contraction
of the currency" that We have more
money per capita now than every be-
fore. Tii, i>suc was set forth by
Charles Foster, the present secretary
of the treasury. He boldly undertook
to reverse history. For nearly a quar-
ter of n century, the contraction of
the currency" has been as much Il fac.
of history as the battle Gettysburg Of
the emancipation of the slaves. 1t has
been discussed in hundreds of speeches
in Congress. 1t has been treated by
historians and economists. 1t hai been
reported and discussed by secretaries
Of the treasury, and discussed by prcsi-
dents OF the United States.
1t was always troublesome and
very disagrecahlc fact to the money
kings and bond-holdcrs in whose inter
est it was done. They attempted to
make the best of it by justifying con-
traction as right and necessary. Bu.
finally they found in Foster q man
after their own heart. a man Of small
callber Ent OF vast conceit. He found
a very simple slalution for the whole
difficulty in fatty DENYING that there
ever was any contraction of the cur
rencv. And now he is using all the
power and influence of the National
Government to spread and substanti-
ate that falsehooi.
Thousands of quotations might he
made from The Congressional record
and the official reports of the Depart
ment ut Washington to lisprove Fos-
ter's claim. For the present, however,
| one quotation will suffice. 1t is from
a speech delivered in the last Congress
by Hon. George W. F. Dorsey of Ne
hraska. Mr.. Dorsey is banker, and
| is thoroughly conversant with finances
On account of his special fitness for
the place he was made chairman of the
Committee on Eanking and Currency
| in the last House Certainly no Ne
braska Republican will dispute SO high

Everyone admits that there is an in
