THE MOUNT PLEASANT CONVENTION

The Republicans who met at Mount
were placed in sore dilemma, though
very amusing one TO those who were
merely lockers on. They nominated
three Mckinley electors, adopted
platform which in turn made the ST.
Louis platform a part of it with the
exception of the financial plank, which
is the specific mark of Republicanism
this year, just as the financial plank Of
the Democratic platform is its specific
mark this year.
A more inconsistent, illogical position
than was taken by the Utah Mckinley
ties could not be conceived. Place their
declarations on the money question be-
side that of the St Louis platform and
see how absolutely at variance they
are:
MT. PLEASANT. ST. LOUIS.

both metals at the
ratio of 16 to l.
The reason that the Mount Pleasant
convention made such a declaration on
the silver question is because the peo-
pie of Utah are for free silver and the
convention hoped TO hoodwink them
as to the attitude of the Republican
party on the question. The convention
seemed to proceed on the theory that
the people of Utah did not have politi-
cal sense enough to know that the
declaration Of national convention on
any subject determined the party doc
trine on it, The declaration of the
Mount Pleasant convention on the sill
yer question is not the Republican doc
trine on it. The Utah McKinleyites
have done lip service to silver, but the
sentiment of their hearts is for gold
