made DESPERATE by REPUBLICAN, leg
islation, hoping tnat their presenc
would mbarrass the administra
ton and convey The false impression
that the party IN power is responsible
for thirty years of republican misrule
In this aTraignment We include those
local republicans who have endeavoret
to cast rldicuie upon the governor, op
prCbrlum upon the Judges and inSnl
upon the militia and the cOnstahulaIy
while those officers were engaged IL
preserving the public peace and seek
ing to turn back the tide OF poverty
which was flowing into tue territory.
We deeply sympalhiZe with The dis
tresS of our Fellow citizens, the unem-
ployed working people of the country
and particularly of those who are
dwellers In our territory. We deploTe
the policy which has brought INTO nuI
midst large bodies Of destitute men,
who nave been supplied with the very
means that was required for the sup:
port of the resident Door, and some of
whom sought to obtain The work which
was needed by our own population.
We declare 1t to be our conviction that

W The toiling masses.
We denounce the false pretenses re-
Gently put forth by leaders of the re
publican party, by which they seek to
deceive the voters of the United States
into the belief that they are friends to
silver by linking 1t wlththe heresy of
protection. The terms "bimetallsm"
and the enlarged use of silver" by
which they seek to dazzle the eyes of
the west and the south, are only catch
phrases to fool the unsophIsUicated.
They DO not mean the free and IN
limited coinage of silver at the ratio

We denounce the national republic
can party: For its false pretenses Of
sudden regard for the people of Utah
against whom III It's platforms and by
extreme legislation 1t indicated intense
hostility from its inception. Its simu-
lated affection is c0-incideDt W tn the
earance of possibility of reDubli-
support In The territory, ana Chat
is support was the only cause of it's
new attitude. 1t is the unselfsh tend
erness which the spider feels for the
fly.
We denounce the only republican leg
islature of Utah territory: For It's
waste of pnblic lime and money in
vain endeavors to manufacture party
capital.
For its opposition to the educational
interests OF the territory, by refusing
TO appropriate sufficient funds for t.
agricultural college AMI to carry on TT

For STRIVING 10 commit the represent |
atIves OF the people, IN memorials to
congress, To gross misrepresentation OF
fact and egregious pidnders in princi-
pie.
For defeating legislation which would
be for the general Interest but not IA
vorable to republican advancement.
For making appropriations, after re-
fusing TO give necessary support to the |
inoUi uticns and the deaf
mute, reform school, insane asylum and
kindred Institutions. and neglecting
to provide sufficient revenue TO meet
the appropriations inconsiderately
made.
The spectacle of republican legisla-
tors runnlag away In lot haste to avoid
an issue winch they had raised them
selves, evading the officers sent TO ar
rest them and hiding until republican
could be assured, thus stop
ping the progress of public business in
The upper house of the legislature and
that body into pubic con-
,empt, was scene unparalleled in the
annals of our country, and exhibits
he republican party in an attitude OF
,owardIce and absurdItv.
the republican legislature showed
more bOmbast and less capacity, more
,aIslmony and smaller economy,
greater partisanshIp and narrower
than any other leglsla
i've assembly in the history vi the ter
ItOry.
We endorse the actor of Governor

o prevent the enactment of vicious
md partisan measures and Insulting
nd misleading memorials by which the
epublican legislature would, but for J
lis action; have injured and disgraced {
he territory. And we recognize in
he governor trm, discreet and able
Executive, whose influence has been
asst on the side of law and order and {
he public welfare generally.
We confidently appeal TO the citizens
