nearly half a million dollars which had
been wrested from it through Repub-
lican legislation.
1t restored to Utah such of its pub
lie domain as was possible to return,
by throwing open the Uintah and Un-
compahgre reservations to public set
| Element
1t wiped out the s725,0OO debt piled up
against Utah under the Republican act
called the Poland law.
1t recognized the claim and ability of
| Utah natives CT bona fide residents by
giving them appointments to public Of
fees.
1t denied the selfish and unjust de-
mands of Colorado to still further i'm
pose upon Utah the savages which
that state desired to get rid of. and
rejected the scheme.
1t gave to Utah lands from the Fort
Douglas reservation as a site for the
University; also large tracts of land for
tits support and for irrigation. for the
Agricultural College, for the Insane
Asylum, for the Deaf Mute Institution,
for the common schools and for the
general benefit Of the people of the new
state, about to enter the Union under
the auspices of the Democratic party.
Its great chief issued an amnesty,
without any prayer from the parties in
volved, but Immediately on the request
of Utah's Democratic Governor, which
is broad, specific and complete, cover
ing all the ground required.
These actual BENEFITS are some of
the acts of the Democratic party, and
the boons enumerated have been chiefly
obtained through the energy, persever-
ance, diligence and recognized abilities
of the Democratic Delegate.
And yet the people of Utah are asked
to turn the cold shoulder to the party
which has been their friend and liber-
ator, and to reject the public servant
who has so faithfully worked for them
with such grand success. Oh, common
sense and common gratitude, where are
you hiding today?

READ AND REFLECT.

q The Republican appeals to the voters
of Utah are all directed to their selfish
ness. If Utah should support that party
which is its friend and has contributed
most to its interests. what reason eN-
! lists for supporting the Republican
party?
1t began by an attack on Utah as soon
as it was born. Immediately it came
into power it commenced to attack her
and tear her to pieces.
1t chopped off more than half her do
main and gave it to Nevada.
1t cut out her northeast corner and
gave it to Wyoming.
! 1t turned in upon her eastern borders
the Uintah and Uncompahgre Utes and
gave them possession Of about nine
million acres of her territory.
! 1t passed the law of 1862 escheating all
the real estate Of her principal church
over the value of $50, 1000, besides impos-
ing official pains and penalties against
her then leading citizens.
1t passed the Poland law of 1874, TAX
| ing away the jurisdiction Of the probate
/ courts in civil and criminal matters,
robbing her of the right to elect a ter
ritorial marshal and attorney, changing
her jury law so as virtually to deprive
| her Of her full rights in that respect,
and charging up to her the expenses of
the courts and offices thus established,
until the debt reached $725, 200.
| 1t essayed time and time again to
entirely disfranchise the majority of her
1 people. and failed only through almost
a solid Democracy and a few fair Re-
/ publicans in combination.
! 1t enacted the Edmunds law with all
its enornities and taking away from
the people the right to regulate their
| own elections.
1t endeavored to pass the Culiom and
! Struble bills for the disfranchisement of
the bulk of her people, and was again
thwarted by similar combination of
! Democrats with few Republicans.
! 1t originated and worked up the Ed
munds act Of 1887, improperly called the
Edmunds-Tucker act, and aroused the
| country to fury so that popular anger
! forced the bill into law
1t formulated resolutions against Utah
and her people in nearly every platform
framed at its conventions.
1t sneered and reviled at the same
people when they appealed for clemency
and avowed its incredulity as to their
sincerity
Its head and chief, after keeping that
appeal from Nov. /, 1890, until Jan. /.
1898. issued so-caHed amnesty
which reached back to the former date
with one hand and with the other
slapped the appellants in the face with
doubt as to whether they would abide
, by its terms, and then only granted par
/ don for the smallest class of offenses
which were nearly outlawed by the
statute of limitations
! These are the sum of all the BFNE-
; FITS ever conferred by the Republican
/ party upon Utah. 1t was the party. not
few individuals, that made war upon
Utah. And there are persons who un-
derstand this and yet, appealing to the
personal interests Of the same people
who have injured and robbed and smit-
ten and insulted, ask them to vote for
the Republican candidate because he
represents that party! Oh consistency.
where hast thou fed?

THE PANIC OF 1879.

The panic of 1873 was one Of the
worst ever experienced by this coun-
try. In his message of December 1,
1873. President Grant spoke as follows:
The year that has passed since the
submission of my last message to Con-
gress has, especially during the latter
part of it, been an eventful one to the
country. In the midst of great national
prosperity a. financial crisis has occur
red that has brought low fortunes of
gigantic proportions. The revenues
have materially fallen off for the first
five months Of the present fiscal year
from what they were expected to pro-
duce. owing to the general panic now
prevailing. which commenced about
the middle of September last.
In his message of the next year he
spoke of it in these terms:
Since the converting of Congress one
year ago, the nation has undergone a

VOTERS, CONSIDER.

The Democratic party has been the
sole earthly restraint upon the Repub-
lican party in the assaults OF the latter
upon the people of Utah
In this it was for many years the
butt of the Republican press and ora
tors in and out Of Congress and was
accused of alliance with Mormonism'
on that account.
Its Senators and Representatives and
Judges were the only champions of the
constitutional rights of the people of
Utah against the encroachments of Re-
publican legislation and executive ac-
ton.
AS soon as it came into power it
granted that statehood which Utah had
appealed for during the thirty-two
years of Republican domination in vain.
It restored the personal property of
the Mormon church to the value Of

of which went into the pockets of the
trust and none into the national treas
ury; and that but for Republican stub
bornness in the Senate with the aid of
four recreant Democrats the differ
entail duty on refined sugar would
have been taken off entirely and the
grip of the trust monster would have
been taken off the industry. AS it is,
the trust gets but one-eighth instead Of
six-tenths of one per cent. differentials
and must pay the duty on the raw ma
terial imposed by the Wilson law. If
the Utah sugar company should be
ruined by the Sugar trust it would be
crushed by the power created by Re
publican protection and fostered by Nc
Kinleyism.

Falsehood, misrepresentation, trickery
and assumption have marked the cam
paign on the part of the Republicans.
They are unmstakable signs of the
system they seek to uphold. Central
ization of governmental power, protec-
ton of classes. bounties to capitalists,
extravaganza and spoliation are con-
spicuous elements of modern Republic

THE SUGAR MONSTER.

Republicans are obliged to cry out
against the endeayors of the Sugar
trust to crush out Utah's sugar
industry. But they neglected to
tell the solid truths, that it was
Republican legislation which made the
Sugar trust possible; that the Mckinley
law gave the Sugar trust raw sugar
free of duty and six-tenths of one per
cent. duty on the refined article; all

of the counties will elect Democratic
officers. That is what the most con-
servative tidings tell.
