The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-08-24
came UP, Mrs. Pardee was pulled
through with rush.


potent anu ODuSlnS young man, ever
ready to fly to the assistance of the
! reporters and all that sort of thing.
The hired man Of this paper forgot
that part of his duty entirely. 1t is
due to McKaig to say that he is a
Jolly good fellow in a position of this
Kind. He borrowed nearly all The
Herald mans paper that he could get
and when the latter got chance to
rest for few moments sent him after
pitcher of water with an air OF bon
homme infectious in the extreme, MAX
ing the reporter aforesaid and herein
before mentioned feel perfectly at
home.
Speaking of Mrs. Wells: 1t is passing
strange that the Tribune did not hoist
her name at the head of the column
with the others. 1t was omitted en-
tirely. A great deal of comment was
INDUCED in over this omission by Re
pubEcans yesterday. If the paper
does consent to advocate her election,
it viii doubtless apologize profusely
this morning. By the way the penny
twinlzler was guilty of the same omis-
sion, which fact leads to the belief
that the editor of the same must have
been making "phat" on the opposition
sheet.
Jake Again Ignored.
There was one act in the convention
which did not appear in the papers.
Jake Greenewald was taught lesson
which tended to convince him that Re
publicans are ungrateful always. Jake
has done more real hard work for the
Republicans Of this city than any man
alive save J. Leon Franks, who has
talked consecutively for ten years
without missing q point. Jake has
hung flags and decorations, secure bal
lot boxes, checked and challenged
votes, took up collections; by the way
whenever the party has wanted money
1t is Jake who has always gone broke
getting it, he is poor now for no other
reason, and done many other kind acts
for the e. o. D. which merits some re-
ward. Jake wanted TO go to the state
convention. It was a poor boon to ask,
considering the services of the veteran,
but he was denied. B. r. Stewart, a
meaty unknown was selected to go in
his stead. There may be wisdom in
this choice though. 3. F. has had many
years experience in handling museum
freaks and his knowledge may come in
handy. Jake can get even, however.
He is going to the judicial convention.
There may be a possibility of the Re
publicans electing Barlow Ferguson
and this will be revenge enough; Jake
is said to be working for Barlow.
CoIored People Not Wanted.
The colored people were not treated
with the cordiaIity they expected at the
convention. Bruce Johnson was a can
didate for the legislature. 1t was all
his people asked and a poor boon it
was. Out of the ten men and women
to be chosen the negroes thought sure
ly the party which STRUCK the shack
les from the fettered limbs of four
millions of men, women and children,
and turned loose on the country a
whole lot of new citizens, would surely
recognize the demand of the contin-
gent here for a, representation on the
ticket. But it didn't go with the pa
triots.
Johnson got even in his speech of
"Mr. Chairman" he said,
81 am the first man of my color aVho
has ever been mentioned for an Office
in Utah. 1 thought my people were
entitled to representation. But it Up
pears the convention does not want
to give us what we ask. I take the
liberty of withdrawing in favor of some
one else" Johnson threw a whole lot
of muscular effort in this speech. The
words left his mouth like shot from
rifle.
Labor Not In 1t,
Labor was not in it to any remark
labor; Pigman, the man." placed be-
fore the convention by Morris, that De-
mosthenes of the Federated Trades;
Pigman, the protege of Franks, the
Nestor of the board of labor; Pigman,
the member of all the trades unions
and unorganized in this city,
or any other; Pigman, who has I'd
vocated the cause of the horny handed
since time began checking off years of
41II l. -
fused nomination. 1t was tough on
labor, but labor will have to stand it
and take its medicine.
The Workingmen's Reform club,
which works within the lines of the
two parties is somewhat mortified over
this result. The Republican members
have been boasting of what their party
would do for the man whose bread is
earned by the perspiration which comes
out on his think tank, but they are
quiet as mice, with the exception of an
election day comes"
All Crane and Trumbo.
AS the country conventions begin to
send in returns, it becomes more and
more apparent that Crane is walloping
the feathers from the Tribune-Thomas
Dixie is commencing
In fact down there the Republicans are
advocating the advisability of having
the eagle retired to back seat and
making the Crane the national bird.
Trumbo too is gaining ground and is
said TO be winner sure, as far as the
southern Republicans are concerned
He and Crane are presenting a fight
such as was never known before It
IS amazing to the few who are feebly
cheering the Tribune-ThomaS gang
Should the Republicans happen to
carry the territorial legislature.
Trumbo will be elected senator so
quickly that his opponents will not
know there has ever been any, fight.
The Washington county convention
which was held at Toquerville elected a
solid Crane delegation. Not only that
)ut the members elected to attend the
state convention in this city were in
structed to vote for Crane first, last
and all the time. This is crumb of
comfort for the Tribune-Thomas com
wants an item for its columns it can
copy this without credit.
Up in Park City a paper called. by
