MoYLE N LLOYD.
Both Talk Cheerfully About the
Result.

Chairman J. H. Moyle had little to
say on the result last night.
L feel gratifed over the result" he
said. 1T means that Utah will be in
the Democratic column this fall: it
mean~ that bimetallism is not a dead
issue IN Utah. We have cheering news
to send TO the friends of this great
u throughout the nation. This o.
especially gratifying in view of the
character of the fight that was made
against u.s."
Benjamin T. Lloyd, who occupies one
Of the most important positions in the
whole firing line, said last evening:
The incomplete returns indicate that
the county has gone for Judge King by
over 1000 majority; that the city has
been redeemed and that both are solidly
Democratic. With proper work they
will remain Democratic on the issues
that were partially brought out in this
campaign.
L don't retract the statement Of two
days ago that if we had had a full
vote in the county the Democratic ma
Jor1ty would have exceeded 5000.
1T proves III fact, that the people
OF this city and county at least are true
TO their honest political convictions:
that they cannot be swayed by unwar-
ranted ecclesiastical influence. and
while referring to this subject I wish to
say TO the people of Utah that there
nave been some OF the lowest, meanest
and most contemplate actions on the
part OF some ecclesiastical dignitaries
that have ever been attempted in the
politics OF Utah, SO far as my knowl-
edge goes.
There is no use for poole to contend
that the rumors that have come to our
committee are unfounded, because we
have definite information as to the in
dividuals using their ecclesiastical per-
suasions on definitely known persons.
l said that such an interference is low;
IL IS worse; 1T is vile, and the quicker
the church dignitaries understand that
their trucking to political parties is
weakening them in the eyes of Mormon.

for their influence among their people.

BIG STRIKES ARE ON
WOrkmen Walk Out i'm Several
Eastern Cities.

New York, April 2-The strike of the
building trades and a few other trades
Went into effect in New York and Vi
entity today. 1t has not as yet assumed
great proportions, and the men out are
perfectly orderly. About 1,600 men went
on a strike through the borough of
Bronx, and issued a circular to the
BOSSES The circular recites the de-
mands OF the men as follows: $3.50 shall
be paid for eight hours work in the
Bronx, and 1925 for the same length
Of time in Mount Vernon. The men
also demand that Saturday afternoon
shall be considered a half holiday, and
that no work shall be done then.
Fifty-One bosses signed an agreement
agreeing TO pay the men what they de-
manded, and also give them the half
holiday. About 600 strikers returned to
work.
At Orange. N. J., 1000 mechanics,
about equally divided among the paint
ers, masOns and carpenters, struck to-
day The masOns and painters already
have an e%ight-hour day, but they de-
mand an increase in wages.
The painters now receive $3.50 a day.
They ask $2.S5. The mason demand As
cents an hour; they are now getting 40
cents. The carpenters demand S2.75
for an eight-hOur day. Their present
rates are $3.50 to $3.50, for a working
day Of nine hours.
The strike of masOns will probably
be settled by tomorrow. The employers
promised to accede to the demands on
May l, but the men insisted that the
new rates should begin today.
The strike of the painters and car
penters will probably be a prolonged
contest, as bosses are firm in their re-
fusal to accede TO the strikers de
mands

"Hooray for Kingl"
Then they would cheer. Then they
would yell Then they would jump
straight up in the air with ear-splitting
cries, and ven a little louder for King,
until the citizen who didn't lose his
dignity, and he was not greatly in evil
dence. was in doubt whether he had got
mixed up in a COmanche war dance or
a gentlemanU riot.
It was a great, surging, swaying mass
of humanity that gathered in front of
The Herald Office a half hour after the
polls were closed, when the bulletins
began to flash. 1t reached from the
Daft block on the north to the Auer-
bach block on the south. 1t filled the
street and blocked traffic. It cheered
at every return, because il got into the
habit of cheering right on the start,
and there was no such thing as hear
ing oneself think. If the calm succeeds
the storm, il will be after The Herald
IS distributed this morning TO its thou

night there Is a string Of ~frecrackerS

of 300 a minute, and somebody has gone
for more.

Tt was The Herald that had the
big crowd. and the jubilation broke
loose as Oon as it was ap-
parent that King was elected. 1t
didn't take long to discover some old
torches that were slowed away some
place and that were decidedly reminis-
cent of the old days. About 100 of these
beacons Of a Democratic victory 1were
placed in the hands of enthusiastic fol-
lowers of King, and a triumphant pre-
cession was formed.

chosen grand marshal, and he aligned
his men in true military style. Thomas
Horne was selected as the first lieuten-
ant Of the marshal, and c.. NJ. Jackson
enjoyed himself immensely in the ca
pacity as second lieutenant. The mu-
sic Of the procession was furnished by
Jack FOrsythe, who had a snare drum
and a repertoire Of Democratic tri-
umphal marches that expressed exactly
the sentiments Of the crowd.
Imbued with q feeling of sympathy,

nigh in standing in h Lannan clique,
rolled up their sleeves and labored for
the cause. But they didn't accomplish
much. The people had decided that 1t
was not yet time to surrender TO h
rule Of the trusts, and they manifested
their sentiments by their ballots.
1t was one of the quietest elections
ever held in the Fourth precinct. There
was not a disturbing incident and
everything passed off all serenely. The
only thing worthy Of note was the sad
ness sof Johnnie Axton and Arthur

work of imbuing the youth of Zion

lost. And the world Will move on to-
ward better things.

Differences at Chicago Are Being

Differences at Chicago Are Being
Satisfactorily Settled.
Chicago. April about half of the
$500 machinists who were on strike re-
sumed work this morning. The man
ufacturerS said that the differences
had either been settled or put on a ba-
sis to be arbitrated, and the remainder
Of the machinists would undoubtedly
return in struggling lots during the
next two or three days.
The agreement entered into recently
by representatives of the manufac-
turers and the men vas ratified y6ster-
day at a mass meeting, the vote being
1882 in favor of ratification, and 396
against. The strike has cost the men
half a million dollars in salary. The
men have been granted a nine-hOur
day with ten hours pay.
Fifty thousand members Of the
Building Trades council learned with
envy that their fellow wOrkmen in an
other trade had gone back TO work.
By reason of strikes and lOckOUts they
have been out for over a month, yet the
settlement Of the troubles between
them and the contractors seems as far
away as ever.
Later in the day matters pertaining
to the resumption OF work in the fac
tories became muddled and some rad
icals among the men clamOred for the
calling Of a general strike forthwith.
The men alleged that some Of them
had been refused their old positions in
direct violation Of the modified agree
ment providing that all old employees
should without exception have back
their old jobs. At a number Of shops
the foremen refused to take back GER
tain individuals who. they said, had
been active in attacks on nOn-union
men and other disturbances.
It's all right" said President O'COn-
nell. These are minor difficulties and
are probably the work Of misguided
foremen who had grUdges against the
men they refused 10 take back. The
result VIII be that some fOremen viii
lose their jobs, and all the men will be
back at their places within a week. It
takes time TO readjust big machines
when they get out of Order.'

Eichnor Was hopeful.

CnalIman Eichnor was also confident.
he did not set any figure on Mr.. Ham

auSted about answering the telephone

winning. Mr.. Moyle still held to his
hgures that the state would go Demo-

tanned that Hammond would carry it
by 1000.
There was very little disorder about
the polls during the day. The police
force did not have much more to do
than on other days An order had
been issued that the saloons close, as
is customary on election days, and al
most every place in town was closed.
But there were three saloon men who
kept open, and as a result they were
arrested. Lollins' place, the Onyx and
Hogie'S kept open until the proprietors
of the first two and the bartender of
the last were arrested.
