Roberts Great Speeches.
Of the speeches it is only necessary
to say that Roberts literally electrified
his audiences in every one of the eight
meetings held in the three days. He
mas no set speech. his addresses diff
feflnS according to the character of
ms audlences. But his four great
polnts-hard times, the tariff, silver
ana the issue of bonds-are admir-
d oly worked up and fortified with I'M
assallable authorities. Only one theme
a0es he bring forward. with little or
no deviation, at each meeting. and this
IS the most thrilling part of his speech.
IN calm, earnest language he tells of
me events of the priesthood meeting
NO names are quoted; his words are
temperate, and his illusions to his
church superiors respectful. He con-
cedes their right to criticfse him and

MI. Chambers usually made a ten or

One Of the amazing things noticeable
IN this campaign is the way Roberts

Work. he makes a beautiful perora
ton on the influence of woman. and
concludes with highly humorous an
peal to Democratic wives and sweet
hearts who have Republican husbands
and lovers, which never fails to tring
down the house. In Heber City "a Re-
publican called out in the audience that
they proposed to defeat Allen: a dozen
or fifteen other Republicans attempted
TO make demonstration at this when
with one accord, as if by preconcerted
action, great crowd of girls on the
stage rose and with a shout of "Roh-
erts." aimed a cloud of boouets AT
his head. The house was in an uprnar
of applause at once, and not a Repuh
lican was again heard from during the
meeting. 1t could not have been more
effectively and prettily arranged had il
been rehearsed. Roberts was visiblv
confused for a moment, and Mr.. Game
sprang to his relief by helping him pick
up the flowers. Roberts then said he
had been warned in the constitutional
convention that the women of. Utah
would bury him, but he never looked to
be buried in flowers, at which there
was more laughter and applause.
One of Roberts happiest hits was at
Heber when he said Democrats favor
ed home industry as much as Re-
publicans did. 'Morer' he exclaimed
