not appreciate the fact that a, lot of
worthless hobos are given employment
that would be of some benefit to hon
est men provided the purpose is to
pursue this work of construction in an
honest, legitimate manner.
A gentleman who has observed many
of these imported workingmen is of
the opinion that they are not to be
employed i'm honest work because they
are not physically able to do even
very poor days work, but that for
the grub necessary to keep soul and
body together they would be willing to
loaf around a comfortable fire from
now until election day and then dis
charge their obligation to their bene-
factors by voting any ticket that might
be placed in their dirty hands. Ambi-
ton prompts men to deeds of daring
for which they are applauded and to
deeds that are foul for which they
are condemned and damned. No APP
plause would greet the victor whose
ambition might perchance be graft
fed by such a pollution of the ballot
box as this scheme if successfully
carried out would result in.
Enthusiasm in Rich County.
WOODRUFF, Rich County, Oct. 8, 1895.
To the Editor of The Herald.
This is "a Democratic year. Dem
ocracy is in the saddle and already
the enemy has sounded a retreat Con-
fidence is in every Democratic heart
and determination in every Demo-
cratic eye. That unsullied, capable and
experienced friend of Utah, Hon. John
T. Game. and that matchless Demo-
cratic orator, B. II. Roberts, accom-
panied by Richard w. Young, have
i 4,.;r, I,,11 iCJ,
through the precincts of this county.
Garden City, Meadowville, Laketown,
Randolph and Woodruff. each turned
out magnificent and enthusiastic
crowds to welcome the. distinguished
visitors. Halls were decorated with
words of welcome, with bunting, flow
ers and appropriate notices. Brass
bands discoursed patriotic airs, flags
were flying and bonf1res illuminated
the vault of heaven. The people turned
out in mass, irrespective of sex or
party to listen ITO the wise views of
MIR. Caine, the conclusive arguments
of the eloquent Roberts and the ex-
position of the constitution by Mr..
Young Their words were free from
that bitterness which has marked the
utterances of ait least two of the Re-
publican trio. The people were a-hun-
CRY for political food. and they were
fed upon the bread of truth and not
upon the stones of calumny. 1t may
be set down that the cause of Dem
| ocracy has been improved by this visit.
This county is most fortunate in its
chairman, Mr.. Arson c. Call. He is a
tireless and effective worker. and will
not be satisfied with less than three
times the majority of the past year.
Aiding him are active county and pre-
cinct committeeman in every town. The
enemy is discouraged by the energy of
our territorial and local committees.
Morgan Grant received the nominal
ton as member of the house, but
against the violent opposition of one
of the precincts whose people were dis
gruntled because of his action as pro-
bate judge in some matter affecting
their interests. Thinking that this pre-
cinct might scratch him and not wish
| ing to jeopardize the party interests
he joined in the movement to nomin-
ate Aquilla Nebeker by reclamation
thus evincing his patriotic devotion to
| the best interests Of the party. Mr.
Nebeker is popular throughout the
county and will be returned by an in
creased majority. Oh, that Allen would
only consent to meet Roberts on the
| platform and that we might nave an
opportunity of being present at the
killingi VICTRIX.

Captain Reilly's tutelage, fast developed
an ability to make a good showing.
