LOGAN HAPpE WINGS.
Eleventh Hour Activity of the Lo-
gan County Republicans.

LOGAN, Nov. 4.-As election day
draws nearer partisan feeling wakes
warmer. The Republicans who have
not so much as struck a match in the
city campaign, are beginning to show
their hand and play their cards. For
some reason they have evidently
thought it unnecessary to make any
public demonstration Of their exist
ence. and some people have been led
to wonder what particular force the
Republicans depended upon to obtain
the majority Of votes many Of them
so confidently claimed. 1t is a certain
fact that such assurance has not been
gained through education of the peo-
pie, for no city meetings have been
held. and the Republican city ticket has
even failed of regular ratification But
the last issue of the organ of Repub-
licanism in this county shows, in
measure, the campaign bludgeon to
be swung by the followers of the 6. o.
p. Here are the two weapons: The
candidate on the republican ticket for
mayor of this city is president of ths
Cache Valley stake of Zion, and said
issue of said alleged organ is flied
with covert abuse and villification of
the Hon. Moses Thatcher, impugning
his motives and questioning his hon
esty. Thus appealing to the preju-
dices and lower instincts Of the peo-
pie, do the Republicans of Logan hope
to sweep victory from the hands of
Democracy. 1t remains to be seen
whether or not such methods will
avail.
The quarterly conference of Cache
stake was held in the Logan taber
nacle Saturday and Sunday. OF the
quorum of apostles there was present
Heber J. Grant, John w Taylor, Mar
liner w Merrill and Abraham II. Can
non. Elders Cannon and Taylor spoke
Saturday morning and Elders Golden,
KimbaN and Heber ]. Grant and NJ.
W. Merrill occupied the pulpit in the
afternoon. With the exception of the
first speaker, who delivered most
excellent sermon on faith and its
workings, all made some reference to
the peculiar condition of affairs exist
ing in this territory in respect to poll
tics. The burden of Elder Taylor's re-
marks was the unreliabihty of evil
dences perceived by the eye and heard
with the ear, citing instances to prove
the fallibilfty of judgment based upon
impressions received by means Of
these faculties. 1t is the duty of Lat
ter-day Saints to sustain the first
presidency, one of whom is no better
Than either of the others, for they are
Grant also referred to the gravity Of
the. situation. Elder Merrill delivered
a good practical sermon.
