Willard, Oct. 2S.-If there had been
any doubt of the fealty OF Box Elder
county's citizens TO the cause of De-
mocracy, it was dissipated here to-
night by the magnificent demonstration
in honor of Hon. B. H Roberts. At
noon the congressional candidate adj
dressed a large meeting at Fielding,
and at $3.50 in the afternoon another
successful rousing meeting was held at
Collinston. After an open-air rally at
Brigham City Mr.. Roberts came TO
Willard
The largest audience that ever as
sembled in Willard greeted Mr.. Rob-
erts at Amusement hall. For two
hours Utah's famous orator held the
close attention of the audience. The
speakers every climax was applauded
vigorously. The Ladies Glee club of
Willard and the Brigham City Mando
lin club furnished catchy music.
Mr.. Roberts paid a worthy tribute to
the ability and fitness of Judge r. n.
Baskin for the office of supreme judge,
and then proceeded to discuss the live
political issues of the day. He showed
the desperation of the Republicans in
endeavoring to make the tariff and the
war questions issues in this campaign.

credit, if it were a proper issue, be-
longed to Dewey, Schley and the other
heroes, who. as Democrats, outclassed
and outnumbered the Republican COM
manders and generals.
The financial question was ably pre-
sented by Mr.. Roberts, and he clearly
demonstrated that the only hope for
the reconciliation OF silver, industrial
emancipation and greater prosperity
lies in the triumph of Democracy, 10
cally and nationally.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Roberts
magnificent effort he was the recipient
of congratulations from Hon. Peter
Low, Republican, who sat as a fell
low delegate with the speaker in the
state constitutional convention.
AS a result of Mr.. Roberts tour of
Box Elder this county's Democratic
majority will be increased to a marked
degree.

ELDREDGE LIE NAILED.
Judge Powers Produces the Record of
Democratic Conventions.


Ephraim, Oct 2S.-The largest and
most enthusiastic audience that ever
attended a political rally in Sanpete
county, greeted Hon. c. w. Penrose at
the Ephraim Opera House last night.
The large hall was literally packed with
people. Every foot OF space on the floor
was occupied by voters and many were
compelled to stand outside the doors
Ephraims crack orchestra, the best in
the state outside of Salt Lake, fur
nished music for the occasion.
Judge Powers was greeted with an
enthusiastic applause. He at once
plunged into a brilliant argument on
the money question. He paid an elo-
ouent tribute TO Hon. B. H. Roberts
and Hon. r. N. Basxin. and at great
length denounced the fight being made
against 3. H. Roberts, showing the dis
honest methods being resorted TO by
the Republican party in their vain eff
fort to defeat the Democratic candi-
date.
He convuIsed the audience with a
graphic description OF Eldredges oil
train speech delivered in the constitu-
tional convention. In refutation of the
claim of Eldredge and Smith that Dem
ocratic conventions of several eastern
states and congressional districts had
declared for gold, Judge Powers read a
dispatch from the Chicago Tribune.
stating that a canvass made by that
paper showed that out of 235 Demo-
cratic congressional conventions, 223
endorsed the Chicago platform, and u
made no mention of the financial ques-
ton
He next took up the Republican claim
that the people are prosperous and fair
" riddled it. 1t was the greatest politi-
cal rally ever held in this city.

SMALL CROWD FOR BROWN.
Ex-senator Failed to Draw at Mt.
Pleasant.
Especial to The Herald.)

Mt. Pleasant, Oct. 2S.-Ex-Senator
Arthur Brown was greeted by the
smallest audience tonight seen at po-
litical meeting here during the cam
paign. His remarks aroused but little
enthusiasm in his auditors, a few Of
the radical McKinleyites apparently
deeming it a duty TO interject an oc-
casional manifestation of approval,
but the chill could not be dispelled. Mr..
Brown first spoke in a general way of
protection, and skirmished around
somewhat indefinitely in his treatment
of this and the silver question in en-
deavoring to avoid antagoniZing any
of the factions of the party. In discuss
ing the financial question the speaker
made very little attempt TO diffuse
light on the subject, but delved into
history with a view of demonstrating
that the Democratic party was not a
silver party. That party was on the
high road TO the gold standard at pres
ent, was Mr.. Browns conclusion, and
if the people really desired free silver,
they could get their desires gratified
only by afhliating with the Republican
party

at a Mark Hanna rally held here last
night. Thomas attempted to arouse the
rrejudices of the ladies present by re-
ferring to B. II. Roberts record on the
suffrage question, but his remarks were
received in cold silence. He then un-
loaded his regulation tariff speech and
wound up with joke about the Demo-
cratic rooster that failed to evoke a
single smile

gree-No Bail.

San Francisco, Oct. 2S.-Mrs. Cordelia
Botkin was indicted this evening by
the grand jury of the city and county

POWERS DENoUNoEs TRIBUNE.
People of Utah Should Condemn Its
Campaign Methods.
Especial to The Herald.

kSpeCldl 10 Inc Herald.
Manti. Oct. 2S.-Manti turned out al
most en- masse tonight to hear the Hon.
o. w. Powers. The magnificent dem
onstration was a credit to the citizens
of Manti. For two hours the assem-
bled multitude listened to the gospel of
Democracy from the eloquent lips of
the speaker, who spoke as but few can
upon the issues Of the present cam
paign. The false pretenses of the Re
publican party as the friends of silver
were exposed. He said if the election
this fall is carried by the Republican
party of this state, shouts of joy from
the east will rend the sky, and the
forces of Mark Hanna will declare that
Utah has been redeemed. The abuse OF
the Tribune was thoroughly exposed,
and the campaign it is waging against
Roberts was thoroughly denounced.
From the lips of some of the leaders
of the Republican party the speaker
showed their own unfriendliness to sill
yer from their own utterances. The
election of B. II. Roberts meant a man
who is able. and who is a devoted sill
yer man. The judge declared that the
campaign such as the Tribune is wag-
ing against Roberts should be frowned
down by the people of the state.
MEETING AT BRIGHAM.
brlSndIl, Ocl- "a nuHlOer OIL PROM
inent Democrats met Hon. B. II. Rob-
erts at the afternoon Cache valley
train and escorted him to the court
house, where a. good sized audience had
gathered TO hear him upon the politi-
cal issues, the opera house being other
wise engaged for this evening. He was
introduced by Hon. A. H Snow, and
talked from the court house steps. Mr.
Roberts spoke very briefly upon the
monetary and tariff issues and of his
determination to eXpound the national
issues until the end of the campaign.
He regretted cutting short his remarks
on account of the cold, raw atmos-
phere. Mr.. Roberts is very popular
here.
