Hon. John T. Game, r. W. Sloan, o
B. Tin1mony, J. L. Loar, the latter Of
Ogden, and Mrs. La Barthe were the
speakers at an enthusiastic meeting Of
voters held at the old Second ward an
mex last night. The Juvenile Silver
quartette furnished some very good
singing and the programme was sand
wiched by some Irish character work
by Leroy Haddock.
Mrs. La Barthe made the opening
address, brief and to the point. She
held out to the audience that this was
the accepted opportunity to choose be-
tween gold and bimetallism, between
liberty and financial slavery. NO
greater endorsement could be given
the free silver cause than the fact that
the Rothschilds, the Belmonts and the
Pierpont Morgans are opposing IL
They are the men who nave Deen
shaping the financial policy OF the
country as a baker works his dough
and their only aim is to continue TO
do so. The speaker referred to the ad-
dress issued by the convention OF agrl-
culturists recently in session at Buda-
Pest, asserting that the election
of Bryan would be the dawn OF new
era of prosperity for the farmer in all
parts of the world. and that the adop-
ton of the double standard in this
country would force it upon the Euro
pean nations.
SLOAN ON REPUBLICAN CANDI-
DATES.
Mr.. Sloan in his usual eloquent way
briefly discussed the issues from a
local standpoint. He cautioned the
people against voting the Republican
legislative ticket as it might mean the
selection of a goldbug for the United
States senate.
In Ogden where Lindsay Rogers is
running things the majority on the
Legislative ticket is for Mckinley
first, silver next continued Mr.. Sloan.
I'm Cache county they have a mixed
ticket. One of the Republican nomi-
nees here, though elected on a free
silver platform, has come out squarely
for Mckinley. Who knows what
Taylor VIII do? "a voice. Which 4 V
lor?") 1 don't know whether it's w.
w. or A. ", because each one has a
hard time denying that he is the other.
daughter and voice, "Oh, you mean
the dog catcher.") Yes, 1 believe the
Republicans have promoted him from
that position.
In the southern part of the state
Arthur Brown Is preaching Mckinley
ism. Why does he do that? Brown is
a shrewd man and if he has any hope
have we not reason to fear? You know
that the sheep interests in the south
are strongly for Mckinley and with a
list of nominees in three of the prin-
cipal counties of the state standing
with one foot on the Mt. Pleasant plat
form and the other on the Independent
document how can you feel safe that
a. goldbug will not be sent to the United
States senate? Joseph Lippman. an
other man who has been condemned
by many Republicans on account of
his stand for silver, has come out and
said he would not vote for a Demo-
crat under any circumstances. Did
you ever hear any doubts about the
result if a Democratic legislature shall
be chosen? No one ever fears that a
goldbug will be sent to the senate in
such a case. I am a candidate for the
legislature, but want to say now that
if an emergency shall arise in which
the choice lies between a goldbug and
free silver Republican out and out /
shall cast my vote for the free silver
Republican" (Applause.)
