steadily In value since McKinley's cleo
ton. while the price Of all things the

over 200 per cent. Any prosperity ex-
listing is enjoyed only by trusts and

REGARDING PROSPERITY.
WHAT MR.. HAMMOND STANDS
FOR.

"The people certainly desire a continu:
alton OF the present good times; and
there is no better way TO secure that
than 10 vote for Mr. Hammond, who
stands. for the principles that brought
these conditions about and causes utah
to enjoy such privileges IN common with
the other States of the Union,
AS to what Mr., Hammond can &c
complish in Congress as compared with
Mr.. King. the Democratic nominee that
is quite clear to any thoughtful man
Mr.. Hammond is thoroughly schooled In
the field OF legislation and knows what
Utah needs. More than that he Will
know how TO get 1t. He is a worker
from the word go. and is thoroughly
systematic in all that he does. Every
one knows that what Utah needs IN
Congress more than anything else Is a
worker. and ! repeat that is what Mr.
Hammond is. predict his election by
al least 1000 votes

CHAIRMAN WALTON'S VIEWS
Says Hammond VIII be Elected by a
Majority OF 1000.


Chairman Walton when seen by a
News" man this afternoon and asked
for forecast Of Mondays election,
sajd
Il am absolutely certain that We viii
carry the state by majority as large
as we did 81 1895 when 1t was about
1000. Tha was as good as we hoped
for then a. it is not necessary that
we should have more than that now.
Enough Is always enough and that is
wlW we .pect TO get.
I'M REST FOLLOWS APATHY.
when We started in with the pres
ent campaign there was a general In
difference among the people. But this
was gradually dissipated by the good
work Of our speakers, who have visit
ed every part OF the State. They have
talked 20 them on all the issues and
given them information regarding mat
tiers concerning which they had doubt.
AS lessons OF Republican thrift ana
ability to govern have been taught
the interest has increased until now /
find the Republicans as wide awake
as they were when we elected our state
ticket in 1895. More than that they
are also thoroughly reunited; the DIFF
ferences OF the past few years having
been entirely wiped out.
AS TO CANDIDATES.
"As to our candidate for Congress
Mr.. Hammond. he has been well re-
ceiyed everywhere and has grown IN
favor as the campaign progressed. the
people turning out In large numbers
! to receive and listen 10 him. They
well know that he has served them
! well In the office Of Secretary OF state
which he now fills He. In common
| with the other Republican speakers

their real prosperity has come from
and who is responsible for H.

FIVE THOUSAND, SAYS NOZZLE
That is the Claim Made by the Demo
cratic Chairman.

State Chairman Moyle--Reports from
the various counties Of this state
indicate that Mr.. King will be elected
by at least 5000 majority. believe this
to be true for the following among
other reasons;
Utah Il, and always has been Demo-
cratic. There is less reason today for
her turning to Republlcanism than ever
before.
The Republican party is unqualifedly
and Tor ali time committed to the gold
standard. This is IN violation Of the
aspirations OF the people Of this State.
The reconciliation OF silver at a ratio
OF 16 to ! would not only give TO utah
twice the money she now receives for
her silver. but would double It's produc-
ton and the Increase TO this State from
that source would exceed the produce
ton OF any other industry in the state.
Not 10 elect King would be death
blow to one Of the greatest and most
noble causes ever submitted TO the de-
termination Of an enlightened citizen
ship.
TRUSTS AND WOOL.
Mr.. King viii be elected because his
platform and his interests are against
those Of the trusts. Mr.. Hammond not
only violates his duty under the law by
not prosecuting the trust. but DECLARES
himself in their favor and so endorses
the high prices forced upon consumers.
The wool producers Of the state VIII
not be deceived by the false cry OF the
Republican party that Il has caused an
advance In the price OF wool, FOR the
reason that there has been an equal adj
vance In the price Throughout the
world. Wool IN Australia has advanced
In value this year over last, from 81 &c
| 70 per cent. See Salt Lake Tribune
March 10th. 1900.
FOR FREE SILVER.
The people Of this silver bearing sec
| ton are not prepared TO surrender th'
| fight for blmetalllsm.
OF all the silver producing States III
people Of Utah will not permit II TO b.
said that Utah Il the only renegad
from cause involving the greatest In
terests OF the world at large. AT M
time has the Republican party mani
tested any disposition TO protect silver
though willing enough TO protect every
thing else.
EQUIPPED FOR OFFICE.
Mr.. King is splendldly equipped 10
/ the office and can enter upon its ful
discharge at once. while Mr.. Hammont
will be a total stranger 10 its duties
and by reason OF his previous inexper
lence. viii, at best, be only an expert
ment.
CONSTITUTION is SACRED.
The people OF Utah have always re
garded the Constitution as an inspire
document Believing this, they canno
support the Republican party In It's con
teniion that the Constitution does no
follow the flag, or countenance It's ef
forts TO erect tariff barrier betwee
the island Of Puerto Rico-nor porto
of our domaln-and our home country
the cry Of Puerto Ricans for justice AM
relief will not fall upon deaf ears s.
far as the citizens OF this State ar
concerned.
