That call should be obeyed in letter
and spirit. The facts set forth in that
document have a vital bearing upon
the future welfare of Utah and her peo-
pie. The repetition Of the things there
reeited cannot but be most baleful to
the State that will soon be. 1t is to
the interest Of all alike that they
should cease. And these meetings are
called that the people may know what
has been and resolve that it shall not
be again. The spirit of the call, a
spirit of charity for all, of malice to-
wards none, should pervade these meet
ings.
The county committee of each county

their country and would maintain in

AS TO THE STATE CONSTITUTION

The tickets printed for the election
this year will have upon them the
words: For the Constitution. Yes.
No" Instructions are given that
those citizens who vote for the adop-
ton of the Constitution must erase
the word No" and those who wish
to vote against the Constitution must
erase the word "Yes" This ought to
be sufficiently plain for everybody with
ordinary intelligence.
But some folks are slow to compre-
bend. They should be shown that if
they do not scratch out the word "No"
or the word yes" but leave them
both standing on the ticket, their
votes will be thrown away, because
they viii cast their ballots both for
and against the Constitution, which
will amount to nothing at all
AS to the position to be taken by
Democrats, the address of the conven-
ton makes it very clear. The Demo
cratic party originated the statehood
movement. The Democratic party
framed and passed the enabling act.
The Democratic House and Senate and
President completed the work. The
Democratic party has been the pro-
moter of statehood against the hostil-
ity and intrigues Of the Republican
party.
Today the Democratic party is
pledged 10 support statehood under
the spirit and letter of the State Con
stitution. The opponents of statehood
in the Democratic party are so few
that they can scarcely be called ex-
ceptions. In the Republican party it
is different. Much more of the ola
Liberal element which hung off from
fusion with the national parties is in
the Republican party than in the 9TH
err, and ii is from the portion of that
element which still retains some of its
old antipathies that opposition to
statehood may be looked for.
That need not count. Let all people
who desire the welfare of Utah, Dem
! ocrats. Republicans and Populists
! cast their votes: For the Constitution
Yes. They need not pay any attention
to persons or papers which intimate
/ that the Democratic party wishes &c
/ defeat statehood. That is but an echo
! of their own desires, as is we'll known
to people in both parties. You may
write this down as a fact: OF the

main, three to one will be found in the
! Republican party. Vote them down
! and let Utah be free!

MAN SUFFRAGE.

1t is really very amusing to think
that some of the male voters of Mas
sachusetts should have deemed the for
nation OF the Man Suffrage Associa-
ton necessary to oppose the extension
of the elective franchise, so far as city
and town elections are concerned. to

non-partisan in character. OF the hun

Gratis. They include ministers. LAWYERS.
doctors and business men, Catholics
and Protestants.
The secretary of the association at
z Park street, Boston, Mr.. Charles r.
Saunders, says it was organized to
bring the attention of male voters of
the state to the fact that they are ia
say on their ballots whether the DUTY
of voting in city and town elections.

Offices. should be conferred upon wo-
men. He also says that it is the be-
lief Of those in the association that a
vast majority of the women have no
desire to change the existing status Of
the suffrage. If that were so, still it is
not good argument against extending
1t, for no reform was ever welcomed
at first by those for whose benefit it
was primarily intended. This is as true
of suffrage as of the abolition of slav-
cry,
Secretary Saunders is a firm believer
in the theory that behind every ballot
there should be a bullet. He says that
to his mind, and he no doubt expresses
the minds of all the members of the
association, '5the fundamental objection
to woman suffrage is that the power to
make laws should never be separated
from the power to enforce laws. Turn
it over in your mind as you may, gov
eminent in its final analysis rests on
force" That view is undoubtedly put
forth in Blackstone's famous definition

The Utah CnmnniEn.

The Democratic convention of Utah,
which nominated the ticket for state Off
GERS some time ago, yesterday reconvened
for the purpose of frustrating a scheme
Republicans and Mormons for the carry
ing or the coming election. The Mormon
church, it has been charged, is support
ing the Republican ticket and that fact
has been urged as a reason for defeating
the constitution and continuing the terri
torial condition. 1t is naturally assumed
that If statehood is secured by the aid
of the Mormon church and particular
party put in power at the same time and
by the same influence, that the church
will be accorded special privileges.
The Democratic convention. at its yes
terdays meeting, issued an address re-
viewing the history OF Mormonism and
its connection with public affairs, and
declaring in favor of full religious free
dom and the absolute and entire separa-
ton of church and state. This will nat
the anti-Mormon influence. 1t may make
Mormonism, to some extent, an issue In
the pending campaign.
The result of the Utah election is a mat
ter of some importance. 1t has a bear
ing on national politics. If statehood
carries and the Republicans secure con
troll of the legislature, a Republican ma
jority will be insured for the United
States Senate. If the Democrats win the
political complexion of the national Sen
ate viii be at least left uncertain. Then
it is probable that the next presidential
election will be close, so close possibly
that one small state may determine the
result, as was the case in 1876. Without
the three votes of Colorado the one cleo
toral majority could. by no manoUvering,
have been secured for the creature HAYES.
I The Republicans, during the administrs-
ton of Harrison admitted new states
that, according to all reasonable calcula-
tons, at the time certainly assured TO
them the winning of the presidential
election of 1S92.-Denver Evening Post.

THE REASON FOR THE CHANGE.

The apologies Of the would-be morn
ing church organ for it's championship
of what it formerly fought with
venom that was extreme in its bitter
ness. are very laughable to the public.
It says it was not converted from its
declarations that church influences
controlled in politics until two years
ago. when ''the rule of all the past was
SO pronouncedly changed, that the Tri-
bune announced its fight was over"
Precisely, for then the evidence was
clear that the underhand influence
complained of was all in the interest
of the Republican party.
That is the whole matter in a nut
shell When the Tribune supposed the
influence of the church was hostile to
Republican success, it was an enemy
as bitter as any in the party which
has been the enemy of Utah from its
inception. AS soon as the rule was so
pronouncedly changed" that was DIFF
ferent. The thing that was deadly
evil became a benefcent good. That
which was a menace to American gov
eminent was transformed into a power
for its promotion. Oh! what a differ
ence it makes whose OK is gored!
The high moral party which fought
the Mornons on the ground of its al
legged immortality. has virtually con-
fessed that it was merely opposed to
Utah because nearly all its people were
supposed to be Democrats. The
paper which made that moral Republi-
can pretence a speciality has acknow-
lodged the same thing. And each has
stamped on its own brow the shameful
word Hypocrisy" in letters that are
indelible
The Tribune's 1tp-fap act is causing
no end Of diversion and it's explana-
tons of the turn over are even more
Iudicrous than the performance The
poor thing is in very unenviable
position

SOME SILVER SENSE.

a Democratic exchange remarks
that while western Republican papers
are endeavoring to make it appear
that some Democratic states are
against free silver, "the people of the
west are preparing to go to the polls
at the next election, for the purpose
of slaughtering the party which, for
quarter of a century, has been the
arch enemy of silver and which is to-
day unanimous in its opposition to the
white metal"
That is to some extent correct. It
is positively true that the Republican
party is as much opposed to the indie
pendent free coinage of silver, as it
was when it planned the scheme for
dropping silver from the coinage. and
during all the years that it fought
every free silver bill introduced in the
House or in the Senate by Democrats.
Its policy is anti-siIver. It is a gold
lite party. Every truthful we'll in
formed person believes the statement
of Senator Jones. of Nevada, himself
a stalwart Republican up to the time
he uttered it, There is no hope for
silver in the Republican party"
But it is a question whether the
people of the west are preparing to
slaughter at the polls the party that
slaughtered silver. Is it not fact
that there are many western Republi-
cans who are SO bigoted and head
strong as vehement partisans, that
they will vote their party ticket al
though the triumph of Republicanism
means the doom of silver?
They did that very thing last year.
BY doing it they rendered the restora-
ton Of silver impossible for at least
two years more. A Republican Con-
gress means the gold policy perpetual
ted. Until there is a, Democratic ma
jority in Congress sufficient to carry
free silver bill to victory, the white
metal will lie prone where the Repub-
lican party placed it and where they
have trampled upon it ever since.
If the people of the west had their
eyes single to the silver interest, they
would help to swell the Democratic
majority and send silver Democrats to
Congress. They would also help to
elect silver Democrat for President
next year. For, the large Republican
anti-silver majority cannot be over
come by western votes. while the great
free silver Democratic majority would
be increased by western votes so as to
make them strong enough for victory.
Cannot the silver men of the west
of both political parties see the stu
alton, show some silver sense and act
accordingly?

THE MUNICIPAL TICKET.

In the excitement of a general cleo
ton that involves the control of the
future State of Utah and the election
of two United States Senators, which
may determine the political complexion
of the Senate. the people of this city
are quite apt to overlook the impor-
lance to the municipal. election Yet
municipal matters more nearly con-
Germ them and their immediate welfare
than State matters. The streets, light
ing of the city, water supply, are things
that every inhabitant Of the city has
brought to his notice daily, as well as
his protection from criminals and his
property from destruction by fire.
The management of all these will be
in the hands of the men who are elect
ed to control the city's affairs. 1t is
trite saying that any one can spend
a fortune, but few know how to pre-
serve one. Unfortunately this city has
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-10-26

none to spend or to preserve, hence the
greater necessity to place its affairs
in the hands of those men who will
husband every resouce and make every
cent of revenue go as far as possible.
The city's expenditures are large and
fixed. No so its revenue. Therefore,
there must be the greatest economy in
the administration of municipal af-
fairs.
Having all these things in view, the
Democrats have nominated a ticket
that is a guarantee to the people of the
city that, if elected, the citys affairs
will be administered in business-like,
economical way. Mr. Armstrong, nom
inee for Mayor, has had a large exper-
fence in municipal matters. and his
ability in this line is acknowledged by
all. MI. E, L. Sloan. named for Re-
corder, has never been in public life,
but is well and favorably known in
business circles, while Mr.. G. D. Pyper,
named sfor Treasurer. and Mr.. Gee,
nominee for city Justice of the Peace,
have served the public before. both
we'll and faithfully.
The gentlemen named for councilmen
are all well known. several of them
having had experience in the City
Council in the past, of which experience
the people should be glad to avail
themselves.
The ticket is one that should COM
mend itself to every well wisher OF
our city.
