Not Go on the stump
1.-The Republicans lead and the Demo-
Gratis may follow said Chairman
George NJ. Cannon in one of his boast
full moods a short time ago. Since
Judge Powers took charge of the
Democratic campaign, however, he has
been compelled to revise that opinion
and now he spends his time trying to
learn what Judge Powers is doing in
order that he may go and do likewise.
The Democratic state headquarters
have proved a prolific source of sor-
row and envy to every Republican VINO
has visited them and in consequence
the party leaders have been looking
around for something that will onset
to some extent the good effect OF the
commodious headquarters of the Demo-
Gratis Yesterday they succeeded IN
hiring the old Tunnel and will fit this
up for quarters Tor their various COM
mittees. It IS unnecessary to state
that the Democratic headquarters will
be more convenient, more cheerful and
better lighted. The Republicans will
be exceedingly economical in fitting up
their new quarters. Their campaign
funds are too low already to sdmit of
Democratic Headquarters.
Democratic headquarters are now
practically shipshape. The canopy for
the women's room was finished yester-
day and will be hung on Monday. a
mirror, some flowers, chairs, pictures
and other things arrived yesterday and
as soon as the canopy is hung the
ladies will take possession, the eXecu-
tive committee of the campaign COM
mittee Of 100 taking the work in hand.
A lunch stand will be started on Mon
day in the north front room, by Mrs
Johnson, whose reputation is known
throughout the city. For this privilege
she will pay 500 towards defraying the
expense of maintaining headquarters.
Bunting and flags are now nearly up.
Electric wiring is nearly completed.
Democrats find the headquarters a
very good place to meet and discuss
politics and feel very good over Judge
Powers brilliant idea.
The special committee appointed by
the Tuscarores to arrange for a gen
eral meeting some time this week
have called this meeting for Tuesday
evening. A full attendance of the club
is desired.
The Herald takes pleasure in invit-
ing all Republicans to go to a little
meeting which is to be held on Mon
day. The purpose of this meeting is to
raise q sufficient amount of money to
give George u. Cannon free rein.
Every man who goes will be expected
TO put up just a little more than he is
able. Every good, patriotic Repuhstcdn
should step up and give just little
more so that the committee may send
out more glee clubs and do more col
onizing in the Fourth precinct.
The meeting Of the general council
of Democratic clubs called for last
evening has been postponed until Tues
day.
A Great FfzzIe.
The Grand Republican Demonstra-
ton planned by Uncle Ben White
more was held last night. A wealth of
paper had been wasted in advertising
it, but in spite of all this not more
than 200 persons were drawn out The
street was too muddy and the dining
room of the Union Pacific hotel was
thrown open, and Uncle Ben finally
gathered a respectable crowd.
Whittemore called the meeting to
order with the observation ''The world
does move" He then presented as
chairman Of the evening Mrs. Arthur
Brown, to whom he gave a bouquet of
flowers. She was greeted with ap-
plause. Colonel NJ. N. Kaign then pre-
pamattox and Utah oak.
Mrs Brown said Whittemore's Re
pubHcanism was Of the right kind. She
accepted the honor gracefully.
The West Side Glee club then dis
coursed in tones reminding one of the
remarkably harmonious condition Of
the Weber county Repu blicans, who
f1rrl,tf foo
lions.
Mrs. Brown said she would intro
duce a man whose eyes have grown
dim and whose locks have grown
gray
Goodv~in's Peculiar Speech.
Judge Goodwin said there were two
times when he could not speak-one
when he spoke first and the other
when he didn't. He said he knew Ben
Whittemore and could get away from
him only when he was in such a con-
dition that he could insist no longer
He said e7erything good in this coun-
try is Republican. He said the fathers
of the nation were Republican in
principle. So long as the people stay
with the principles of their fathers
they will be all right, but wnen they
take the heresies that rule today they
are on the road to disintegration.
It is IIard work to make a Repub-
lican speech. He was in the position
of a man whose wife told him to
spank the baby and who refused be-
cause he could not find anything large
enough to spank. Il have not found
one Democrat this year who can give
a sufficient excuse for the existence OF
the Democratic party" He then dis
cussed steel rails, wire nails, carpets
THE laboring man now has better car
pets than Queen Victoria when she
first mounted the throne" The hard
times were made by fear Of free
trade. The German bill is highly
protective tariff. Good times set in
only when the Republicans were giVer
majority of the House.
He acknowledged that Republicans
had demonetized silver, but insisted
that they did not know what they
