J. G. Thoresen Of the Hyrum Democratic
club in few appropriate words introduced
Judge Judd, who after expressing his
qualification for the large attendance, said ::

IT TO be right. Let US be conscientious and

After referring TO the constitution and
the different meanings attached to it by
the two parties, the Judge said that accord
ing TO the IDEA OF hamilton, all tie rights
and privileges, not specifically given to the
people. belonged to the governing power,
while according to Jefferson, and the true
meaning of Democratic form of govern
ment, as expressed by the constitution, all
power not given by the constitution tc the
governing power, belonged to the people.
''The government is made by and for the
people. not the people for the government"
Speaking OF the protected infant indus
tries, he said: "These infant Industries
have been rocked in the cradle of protect
ing bounties so long, while the backs of the
people have been grooming under the bur-
den OF high taxation, that now they say to
US. rock Us or We will get out and make
you do it whether you like it or not.n
In mentioning the tariff on several arti-
cles the judge explained how the Republi
can orator had been misleading the people
with the story that steel wire nails are
selling for less than the tariff.
steel wire nails are made in different
sizes from God down to 3p tine. The tariff
rate on GOD nails is about 4 of per cent.
The nails sell for from 81. 81 TO 81 per hun
dred pounds. The tariff on Sd fine is
about 81 per cent, and the nails sell for
from $500 TO So per hundred pounds. The
tariff on Sd fine nails is more than the sell
ing price of God, but only little more than
half OF the price of the same size nails.
However," said the Judge, ~ can forgive
Frank as the Savior forgave those who
prosecuted him, when he prayed, Father,
forgive them, for they know not what they
do.'n

population OF England were receiving sup
port either from public or private funds.
He said: IN the past thirty years OF free
trade she has increased her wealth one
half, the riches ST the wealthy have de-
creased $500 and of the middle classes
&, 900 each, showing that with all the in
creased wealth the rich have grown poorer
and the poor richer, not as in protected
United States, the rich richer and the poor
poorer.n In regard to the reduction of the
public debt. Mr.. Thatcher said: Not one
dollar of the nations debt has ever been

000.n After q brief mention of the wages
of the iron workers in Pennsylvania, Mr.
