The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-10-01

Their course has been as wrong headed as
could be. Their assertions Of independ-
ence and freedom from control of any per
sons. committees or influence whatever
have only been redeemed from childish
petulance to be called with a harsher
name by the evil consequences that have
! followed their actions and the disastrous
pits into which they have dumped the
city. ~ Tribune, dug. 20.
That was queer action on the part OF
DR.. Utter and his fellow grand jurors in
summoning to appear before the grand
jury the court reporters of the papers, and
endeavoring to make them tell from
whom they derived certain information
recently published by them. 1t showed a
verdancy that is almost refreshing in its
nature.
Powers is apparently as happy as a
clam. For many moons past he has been
on the shelf OF privacy. His name seldom
appeared in the papers-not even in the
society column. Now the whirl of poll
tics has brought him once again into
prominence, and he appears to be as
proud OF it as a boy with his first Sus-.
penders, or the youth who discovers a
slight fuzz on his upper lip. Witness

of yesterday. Since his little disagree
ment with Walden he seems to have de-
veloped decided sporting proclivitles, and
issues a challenges ''open to the world -
that he did not write Mr.. Conklin S let
ter. Nobody said Powers did write it;
he might. probably have dictated it to
type writer.

Jake Moritz is booming the idea that
the slogan of the Liberal party during
the coming campaign, should be: "Home
Industries, First, Last and All the
Time'-with a preference for S. l.. b.
Jacob has a great head.
Two failures out of a possible two is
hardly the best of argument to put before
the public for another trial, is it? This
is the record of the miserable outfit known
as the Liberal party.
Ii Salt Lakers do not snow under the
rotten outfit at the coming election, then
set her for the two years commencing in
January next!
The vegetable who runs an evening
sheet, that appears semi has
considerable to say about Salt Lakes
street car system. Outside of the Office,
there are, perhaps. few who read the
sheet, and none who are influenced by it.
A fellow who has lived in the backwoods
all his life can hardly be expected to take
to modern i'm provements, and the fact
that the managers of the street car lines
have refused him q pass, does not and
should not give him cause for wholesale
lampooning of 6 street car system that is
conceded by all travellers to be the best,
population considered, in the entire
United States. The poor dot has my
sympathy in his misfortune.
Judge Gee is to be candidate for re-
election to the wool-sack in the city hall.
That Marshal Paul is to be knitted by
the Liberal organ is already on the slate.
He and certain gentleman named Lam
nan have never been able to see eye to eye
as to the manner in which the police
force of this city should be managed. Ed
Kelly is to be supported by the Tribune,
so it is said. and he is reported to be also
the choice of several OF the Main street,
First South and Second South business
men, who make speciality OF very wet
goods.
At last accounts judge Colborn was
ahead in Che mayoralty race, with G. P.
Mason close behind, w. w. Chisholm a
good third. and Hank Barnes distanced.
Hank doesn' t-seem to know it, but he al
ways was too much of a heavyweight
for the Liberal party, Cut loose! Don t
be a clam! DR.. FELL.
