more difficulties in the way of the Emmanuel

This is a Democratic year.

This is a Democratic year.
Not since the campaign began has
this truth been brought home so
forcibly as during the last two days.
Men of all parties are now rallying to
the support OF the Democrats in their
effort to secure absolute immunity
from any ecclesiastical influence in
politics.
From all over the territory comes
the word that the Democrats will stand
behind their leaders in the fight and
make the issue so plain that not even
the most ignorant may mistake it.
Nor is it the Gentle element only that
Is with the party. From everywhere
comes the news that the Mormon peo-
pie are about to vindicate their honor
and prove to the country that the
promises made in their behalf were
made advisedly.

something on the subject might be
delivered from the pulpit But moth
ing new on that side developed, Moth
ing has yet come to stop the progress
of the Democrats.
a consultation of leading Demo-
Gratis was held in headquarters dur
ing the afternoon for the purpose of
deciding upon some idea, to be pre-
sented to the Democratic state com
mittee when it holds its meeting this
afternoon. At this meeting John T.
Game, B. H. Roberts and other can
didates were present and gave their
endorsement to the stand taken by
the party. In the afternoon Mr.. Rob-

this issue, in reply to questions asked
him by The Herald.

Chances for Private Reproof.
But how about the present issue?"
For several weeks before the Ogden
convention met my name was used in
connection with the nomination for
Congressman Indeed, ever since the
constitutional convention adjourned
my name has been discussed in connec-
ton with that office, a Senatorship or
the governorship. At last the Ogden
convention met, and | was nominated
for Congressman by reclamation.
There had been no word of warning
given me by the First Presidency, dur
ing the discussion of my name for
Congressman or any of the other posi-
tons in connection with which my
name was used. The day after the Og-
den convention 1 met one of the Presi
dents as we were both leaving the
train on its arrival at the Ogden de-
pot In his presence number of
Brethren whom we met on the plat
form congratulated me on my nomina-
ton. but he was silent He did not
take me aside and reprove me for any
breach of Church regulation, and
doubtless if he thought that if either
unthoughtedly 1 had done SO, or even
through self will had been guilty of an
improperly, he thought it imprudent
to do so.
"A few days, or week or two after
that, the Presidency sent for me to
come to their office on a matter about
which they desired to consult me. and
1 obeyed the summons. On that &C.
casion 1 was alone in the presence of
all three of them, and consulted with
them on the business referred to some
fifteen or twenty minutes. No COM
plant was then made to my course in
accepting the nomination for Con-
gresham, though they seemed to have
no special business on hand, and both
time and opportunity conjoined to give
a chance to correct me if 1 had made
an error
