Republican Harmony.

Repu bltc1n Harmony.
There is a Republican happy family
In Weber county. A fight to the bitter
end is evidently on between Buffalo
Bill Glasmann and Frankie Cannon, the
Republican Apollo Belvedere. Glas-
manns idea is to prevent frankie from
showing that beautiful hair" in the
United States Senate, and Frankie's
friends are actuated by a very patri-
otto determination to kill off Glasmann
as a political factor in Weber county.
1t reminds one of the famous battle be-
tween the legendary Kilkenny cats.
1t is very interesting to the onlooker.

by an attack on the Frank Cannon
ring. A sample of the Press love taps,

Stopped Over Again." reads as fol-
lows:
1.-THE Standard last evening, true to
It's base Instincts, made a lying and
unwarranted attack upon class of
men who, in all that goes to make up
true manliness, in all that constitutes
honor and honesty, and political de-
cency, are as far removed above the
groVeling and time-serving ickspittle
who attacked them as heaven is above
the earth. The animus of the article
is plain; ITS purpose is we'll understood,
being nothing more nor less than to
arouse the passions of men who, once
political enemies, are now friends and
in good faith working together as par
ttsans for the public good. We believe,
of course, that the scheme will fail of
it's purpose, because the sensible men
of Ogden have long since learned to
discount any statement emenating from
the unreliable source alluded to- We
believe, furthermore, that when the
Standard says it has heard ''ex-Liber-
ais" men now in high positions"
whispering around the following
words" This is our last chance; it
will be all church under statehood"
Let us take this election. we will
never have another chance" that it
lies; and to show what little confidence
we have in the statement, we say fur
ther that we would not believe the
statement were it backed up by an
affidavit.
"Those who have read the Standard
for some time past and noted its evil
dent desire to rake over the embers of
the past and revive the old animosi-
ties which all good men have buried
out of sight, will not be surprised at
the latest ebullition of the tangled
suffrance of better men, is permitted
to defile pure white paper with his
insane vaporings. So much for that
part of the Standards lying screed. 1t
it with the concluding paragraph that
we have now to deal''
An Independent paragraph in the
Press says:
ITO the Salt Lake Argus: The nom
ination of the fellow CBin Glasmann)
whom you have named as candidate
for The state senate is not even re-
mote possibility. Don't forget this
when the nominations are made. That
fellow will not be in it little bit, al
though his name will probably be.
mentioned in the convention to be
held"
Last evenings Standard pays no
heed to the Press, but goes after the
Tribune's Ogden correspondent in this
way:
Colonel Hayes has had another at
tack of collie. He must have slept
badly Tuesday night. The nightmare
with visions of a horrible future ap-
peared before him. He probably las
been visiting some Of the Tpscarora
braves and partaken of some dog soup
Still the big medicine man Will pre-
scribe for him and his wrath will
quietly disappear again. AS for the
Standard, dear old Tribune, your wall
is like music to our ears"
The fight is now on for the control
of the Weber county legislative con-
vention. Bitterness has been engen-
dered. which will make Republican de-
feat in Weber county a moral GER
tainty.
InexcusabIy Erroneous.
The ignorance of political affairs In
Utah shown by newspapers in the
east is always a fruitful subject for
comment Occasionally some paper
will advance the most ridiculous. ideas
with every appearance of absolute as
surance AS an instance of the ex-
tent to which these absurd ideas will
go we cite the following extract from
the Nashville Banner:
1.-The Democratic state convention in
Utah adopted the unusual course OF des-
ignating two men as candidates Tor the
United States Senate, in addition to nomi-
mating candidates for state positions. Inc
gentlemen suggested by the conVentlon as
senators are ]. L. Rawlins and Moses
Thatcher, and it is understood that if the
Democrats secure a majority in the leg
islature those candidates reco11lmended
1.-The contest in Utah will doubtless be
close with a good chance for the Democ-
racy, although the Republicans appear to
have a greater confidence than their OPP
ponentS.
If the brilliant writer who conceived
that idea could only walk the streets
of Salt Lake for week and mark the
respondent bearing of the Republican
rank and file and the confident air of
the Democrats, he would make an
amendment of his views at once.
