we, the Democrats of Salt Lake

our allegiance to tle principles of the
Chicago platform as adocted by the
last national Democratic convention.
Party government being in harnrcny
with tlle genius of American 6nstitu-
tons VIC are in favor Of rs nYaiNtan-

Having full faith in tha capacity OF
the people for ssff-soverngnent, we be-
neve it is their province, 8lrougi1 their

dats for public office, and we condemn
the method of nominating candidates
by q constituted committee that
SITS in secret. behind locked doors, and
refuses to consult the sovereign people
in any fcrm or manner.
I'VE hold that public Office is a pub

Hence we favor the election to office of

We hold that all public funds are

I'VE hold that municipal expenses

that they must come Within the reve

CAN FIND NO FAULT.

The northern cotton mill men have tried
hard to find disadvantages in the south
for cotton manufacturing. They have
been able to find but two disadya ntages,
and these disappear on investiga ton.
They say that the warm climate of the
south will not allow the operatives to
work as long as those in the north. and
that the cloth is shipped TO the northern
market and it is just as cheap to ship
the cotton. As to tao warm climate it
can be said that southern workmen ard
business men observe longer hours than
those liz the north. In Massachusetts
there is a law restricting the number CT
hours-that operatives can work in a cot
ton mill, while in the south there is no
such restrictive legislation. In flse of a
hot spell in midsummer the cotton mill
can be ventilated Just az our mines are
ventiiat ted. AS to the northern market:
1t is well know; that the demand fer cot
ton goods is mostly in south arn countries.
The southern ports gre now entered by
steamers from ali countries. The south is
much nearer the countries that consume
cotton goods than the north.

the points of the compass from east to

likewise goes in circles. A man lost in a.
forest walks all day in a circle and at
night finds himself where he started The
farmers of Alabama once raised every
thing they needed ON the farm. Then
they dropped everything else and raised
cotton exclusively. Now they have seen
the error of their way and again they
are raising everything at home. This re-
turn to the starting point has filled their
barns with corn and their smoke houses
with meat. Edward Atkinsons says that
before long electricity will be used as
the motive power of the cotton mills.
Electricity can be carried to distance.
Then the operatives will have their looms
and splndles at home just as they did in
olden times.
