BriEnam CITY, NOV. O.--l 1ldL witty
and incisive little sledge hammer of
Democracy, Robert w. Sloan, was in
Bear River City last evening. The
whole town turned out 1t was a
splendid meeting The ease and neat
ness with which Mr.. Sloan took UP one
Republican fake argument after an
other and smashed it to atoms right
before the eyes of his audience was re
freshfng. The people were delighted
and the meeting proved a shining sue
cess.
B. H. Roberts is all right. His grand
resolution at EphTain, calling on the
Democracy of Utah to help down the
sugar trust monster, which has its iron
fingers on the throat of the Utah su-
gar factory, finds hearty welcome
among the northern Democrats. Box
Elder county sends greeting to San
! pete; and will help her freeze out the
trust by buying Utah sugar every
yAyhack.
The Republican meeting at Mantua
last night was a dismal failure.
A hot Republican came down from
Logan the other day toting along in
his grin the false statement which
Was no QOuDl lllttI1utu W SlNhCl NAIC
heart of every Democrat in town: that
Professor Paul had renowned Democ-
racy and Joined the Republicans. To-
day several tender Republican twigs
were innocently propoundinS the ques-
ton TO men on the streets: rs 1t so
that the News has gone Republican,
The Republicans hereabouts must be
in a bad way when they have to resort
TO such absurd methods to hoodwink a
few ignorant voters. Professor PauPs
Democracy is as sound as the very
mountains-as for the News, it
'fwOuldn't matter very much if it should
Mop completely. Better be coal black
Niger than black and white one.
The Republican territorial campaign
committee had better keep their eyes
peeled or at the end of the battle some
of their stumpers may turn up missing.
IT was reported that one lion-hearted
whoopeT-up of unsound principles got
financially stranded out in the wild
and woolly western part of this county
!. and but for prompt relief from local
1brotheTs his fate would have beAl a
sad one.
Messrs. Seaman, Baty ard Davis
spoke to an enthusiastic gathering at
Plymouth last Thursday. The Demo-
Gratis at that place are in high spirits
and will roll up q handsome majority
IOr KdWllQS d 60. next 1uS6Ody.
The Republicans stand aghast over
the discovery Of a breach in their ranks
this week. They suddenly stumbled
upon a nest of Populists in the First
ward. This was one of their strong
holds, and talk as they may, these
suddenly converted Pops. stand firm
paralyzer fer the Republicans, as they
know the thirG ticket and the Demo-
Gratis will get most Of their votes.
Many Republicans in Brigham and
in other parts of Box Elder county
emphatically declared they will vote
for Rawlins. There is not an unbiased
man in the territory who was not per-
: fectly satisfied with RaWlinS' splendid
record in Congress, and they argue
FNhy should he not be honorably re-
lturned to those halls once more. While
In Washington he forgot party and Ia
bored ZealouSly and manfully for all
: the people. Where Rawlins would be
working for the people suave Cannon
woul be gliding around making friends,
participating IN champagne suppers
and otherwise feathering his own nest
for reelection. There is no COM
parison between the two men.
Some of the efforts of the Republi-
cans in this place to catch votes would
put old Annanias to blush. They
carefully size up their man, then pro-
coed to stuff him. If he be a foreigner
still ignorant of American ways, they
boldly ask him to open his mouth, and
if he opens it woe be unto him! They
pour down the rankest lot of prepos-
Eserous fabrications imaginable. Among
the conglomeration may be cited the
following: 1.-THE Republicans are for
nome industries; the Democrats are

Thursday morning several men were
riding down to the railway station in a

The other calmly said he thought

The Brigham Democrats are pleased
I TO hear that the Hon. Franklin s.
Richards viii address them in the Sec
ono ward hall, Brigham City, Monday
night. Mr.. Richards is one of the
soupdesJ reasoners and most convine-
ing Npe;l yers in Utah. He should be
greeted by a large audience. The Re-
publicans will hold a meeting in the
opera house the same evening.
The Republicans are circulating hun
dreds of copies Of the Deseret News
containing the Cannon boomlet. The
d-wo notices and the editorial are placed
a. conspicuous places in the paper with
E@hite space all around them to give
them still more prominence. The sheet
looks as if it had been bought out
heart and soul by the g. o. p's. and had
been turned into a political advertising
dedg7r. The Democrats are Disguised
with the News for its humanity refusal
TO publish Judge Powers reply. Even
the political organs the self-righteous
News SO loves to score would show
more fairness than this.
While speaking in Bear River CITY
recently, j. NJ. Coombs SO saws a Re-
publican, got ratified and roared out:

he finished the last word a blushing
