PLEASED DEMOCRATS.

You cannot, in travelling from one
end of the county to the other, find a
democrat whose face is not lit up by
broad and happy smiles. The occasion
for this is the vast and perfectly ap-
parent superiority of the democratic
over the republican ticket and this SUI
periorty commences at the top and con-
tinues down from the delegate in con-
Rress to coroner of the county. This
superiority is a perfectly reliable gage
of entire and full success. Well may
the democrats be pleased and express
their pleasure, as they do, with heart
mess and satisfaction which is univer-
sal. The nomination of Rawlins rang
through the beautiful wales of Utah
county like bugle blast calling the
clans TO battle for the wales Of Bonnie
Scotland. The democrats came to the
front, armed for the fray and they are
there yet and Will remain until the
proud day upon which cur great cham
pion is elected to return and finish his
great work in the halls of congress. To
a thoughtful man, Saturday nights
scene was one full of interest as well
as instruction. Here were q brave
people whose highest political aspira-
tion was to be admitted to the citizen
ship of this great nation. They had
struggled, and hoped against hope for
thirty years. This citizenship had
been but recently granted, and before
this immense audience stood the
man who, under God, had been instru-
mental in conferrlng the boon. Is
1t any wonder that their enthusiasm
broke all bounds when modest soft
voiced and unpretending gentleman
stepped forward bowling. At that
moment was born the determination
in every Utah county democrats
heart, TO do all that mortal man might
do to elect him, And at that moment
was also bern the conviction that it
would be done, the certainty of full
and soul-satisfylDg victory, not for
Rawlins alone, but for every man hav-
ing the honor of being on the same
ticket with him. 1t was this thought,
this determination which moved the
county democracy to choose a ticket
which would strengthen the gallant
Rawlns. And it was SO chosen.
Look at it. There is not man on 1t
for whom Rawlins need blush. Not
one but will bring him especial friends |
of his own with delegate vote In their
hands which reads Joseph L. Rawlins.
This is not all, these men from dear
old DR.. Maeser down are the best we
could have picked out of our party in
this great county, and he will never
blush for the constitution given the
a ew state of his creation, if the bal
auce Of the counties are equally wise
aud have nominated such men as Utah
has. Think Of the venerable
Maeser, of the accomplished Thurman,
Of the wise Greer, of the pure clean
Partridge, and indeed the whole dele s
gate ticket containing the best and most
exalted names in our county and then
ask yourself what more could the brave
iemocracT of Utah have done to win
5he public confidence? Contrast these i
names with those on the other ticket
md then ask yourself why these men
nay not he elected as they We're nomi- q
lated by acclamation. The DIsPATcH a
promised many months since to give !
good account of the ticke; for the
;onYention and behold it. Is it not fc
ranI lullfilment of the promise. The G
'ooths, the Looses, and the Kselers "
4 the other ticket arc strictly net in q
