which are essential ito a completely
free republic. Equal suffrage is bound

THE PRESS ON UTAH.

1t is seldom that our contemporaries
IN the east are able to understand
Utah and her affairs. We. would be
| sorry to think that they wilfully mis-
represent them. But they obtain their
! information from unreliable sources,
and do not take the trouble to read UP
from Utah papers or to enquire
1 further. The New York Mail and Ex-
press in a recent issue attempts to
enEghten it's readers about the politi-
cal situation out here, and to show
that ''the Democrats are after Utah."
which of course is a very startling
announcement.
That paper makes the assertion that
after the election of last fall, Word
! was sent out from the Democratic
National Committee that the Utah
constitutional convention must be
made Democratic at any sacrifice"
But that is not all. It is further as
serted that.
Pursuant to the directions of the
Democratic National Committee, the
Utah Election Commission, which is
constituted of four Democrats and one
Republican, has so manipulated, under
Inc pretense OF a recount, the election
return. in sufficient number of close
districts as to seat six Democrats in
me place OF the same number of Re-
puDllcanS. whose election was certified
TO by the Democratic registrars
This reduces the Republican majority
IN the Constitutional Convention to
one. and if ii were not for the fear of
an injunction issued by the Territorial
supreme court the Republicans would
lose even that.
The Mail and Express publishes
editorially that mess of blunders and
falsehoods at this late date. after the
convention with its thirteen majority
of Republicans has been in session so
long. and spent so much of the money
appropriated by Congress in frfttering
away the time,
That pious paper, with its daily Bible
texts, seems to be oblivious to the
events of the day. It knows nothing
of the ieremy-diddling by which the
Republicans forced into the presi-
Dental chair person entirely I'M
suitable for the place. and who had
no certificate of election, and a secre-
tary whose unfitness has been a sub
ject Of daily modification to the ma
jorfty who thrust him there through
the force of numbers.
1t knows nothing of the irregular,
illegal and indecent proceedings by
which this was done, in violation of all
rules and precedents of record. but ap-
pears to be under the delusion that the
convention is only just organized
when it has been fidd1ing away at
preliminaries for three weeks and has
succeeded in exhibiting the most glar-
ing Republican incompetency.
We need not say that every asser-
tion in the quotations we have made |
from the Mail and Express contains a |
of fact. It is a specimen
OF eastern journalistic comprehension
Of Utah affairs. Editors at a distance
should either read up little or shut
up a great deal in reference to Utah.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-03-26

ming over the misleading later letters
in its namesake of New York and has
become confused as to the facts. which
is quite natural as an effect of the
last effusion.
We assure our Kansas City contem-
porary. which is not often so egregri-
| ously in the wrong. that religion is
not to cut any figure in the politics OF
the first state election in Utah. which
will not occur until next November.
That all the Delegates from Utah who
have sat in Congress were Democrats.
That the Democratic candidate was not
reelected last fall. although he had
made a brilliant congressional record
| and proved himself the friend of Utah
and peer of his experienced associ-
ates in the House of Representatives.
The Republican candidate was elected
by plurality of 1921. receiving the
great mass of the votes referred to
by the Times as having been cast for
third candidate two years before.
There are no new conditions con-
fronting the people of Utah unless the
election of last fall constituted their
novelty. and the Republican conven-
ton should so shape the apportionment
that the Republican grip on the state
becomes fixed. The notion that the
Mormon church, or any other church,
in Utah will obtain a victory in poll
teal affairs is huge mistake.
The Democratic party of Utah is
chiefly composed of people of that
faith. Without them the Democrats
would number but small handful.
The late Liberal party was over
whelmingly Republican. The mining
element is principally of the same
party. The Mormon people. since the
dissolution of the Peoples party, have
taken sides on politics from convic-
ton. after studying the principles of
the several platforms. The election re
turns show that the Republican ma
iority of 1891. which in the whole ter
ritory was but 1,265 out of total vote
of 1885. was obtained by the dissolu-
ton of the Liberal party and its slump
into the Republican ranks.
The Democratic cause is not by any
means lost in Utah. One battle does
not decide a cause. The principles of
Democratic government are deep in the
hearts Of the great body of Utahs
people. A few of them may have been
led away by the appeals to their self
ishness. which have been made by Re
publicans. but they will yet be found
in the right. and the Democratic pha-
lanx will not be broken. but be found
to present solid front 10 the foe
when the next contest comes.
And this will not be fought on church
lines either? For politics and religion
have each taken their place in Utah
and those who try to make the con-
trary appear are not the friends of
truth nor of the new state just about
to enter the Union.
The Herald does not deny that re-
ligious influences may have been in
some cases attempted, or that it had |
no effect upon the people here. But it
does maintain that the great body of |
the citizens of Utah are not swayed |
by the political views and utterances
Of prominent churchmen. but that they |
vote on their own volition. independent |
Of any such endeavors. The facts and |
figures prove this. and they are SUI
oerior to any theories no matter by |
whom entertained.

THIS IS ANOTHER.

Here is the Kansas City Times. much
nearer home than the Mail and Elk
press but not any nearer the truth,
as appears from the annexed editorial
in its issue of March 23rd. headed
Politics and Religion in Utah."
The probability that Utah will go
Republican at the impending election
increases as the time for the vote
draws near. But there was no reason
to expect any other result Until 1892
the division at the polls was not, as a
rule. on political lines. 1t was on the
question of Mormon religion, and the
antl-MOrmon was defeated, whatever
ms politics. In most cases the delegate
in Congress has been a Republican.
I'm 1892 political lines were drawn
and the religious question eliminated.
In that contest, though q Republican
candidate for Congress was a Nor
mon. the Democratic candidate. Joseph
L. RawlinS, won, because there was
third candidate, in the field who
drew nearly three times as many votes
as Rawlins' majority. In 1894 Rawlins
was reelected by a small majority for
the reason that the shrewd Mormons
conceived the notion that his election
would promote the chances of securing
admission as a state.
But in the present campaign new
conditions have arisen. Politics and re-
ligion are alike active in the contest,
and the Mormons and Republicans
have joined hands in the fight. The re-
suit is practically certain to be a vic
tory for the Mormon church in Utah.
and for the Republican party in Wash
ington. 1t is a disreputable combina-
tion:. but promises to be a successful
one"
The Times has evidently been skim
