adopted by the Republican con-
vention in 1890 and quotes what
Prest. Kimball said in conference
at Thatcher to prove its assertions:
"The history of the Mormon
church in the United States means
an ecclesiastical control that has
ever been aggressive, exacting and
tyrannical, and whose boast has
ever been that the Mormon church
and people do not and will not
assimilate with the people of our
country; whose dominating tenet
is polygamy; whose doctrine is to
seggregate its people from all
others in their affairs; who vote as
one man under the dication of it's
priesthood, and only for those who
may be used for its base purposes;
that as a people they are un-Amer-
ican and disloyal, and for less rea.
sons than these the Chinese have
been refused citizenship and are
excluded from our country; that
the Mormon in our midst is con-
stantly increasing; that the evil Of
their lives is a blot on the good
name and fair fame of our terri
tory, and that if we allow this vice
to continue we can hope to harvest
from this vice only evil; and there
fore we, the Republicans Of Ari-
zOna, in convention assembled, do
hereby demand of congress that
before it adjourns it shall pass the
bill now pending before it, known
as an act for the 'Purifcation of
Elections in Arizona
The Republican also publishes the
following report of the conference:
"At a Mormon conference held
in the ella valley, President
Andrew Kimball of the Mormon
church denounced in strong terms
the bringing up of anti-Mormon is
sues Of long ago. He stated that
it was the policy of the Mormon
church to live in the present and
to let the past be forgotten. He
denounced in the strongest terms
the article appearing in the Solo
monville Bulletin in regard to Mr..
Morrison"
Prest. Kimball did not denounce
anyone, but he did recommend that
sold issues" be buried. And Prest.
Kimball has a right to his own
views upon the subject, but the
people of this county do not re-
gard this as an "old ISSUE" and
they have right to their views.
1t is as much the policy of the Re-
publican party to-day as it was
twelve years ago.

candidate, and for proof of the
above assertion we refer to Muir

PURER POLITICS,

All classes ofpeople are demand
ing purer politics. A large num-
ber demanded that the Crawford
plan Of nominating tickets be
adopted, hoping that would cure
the jobs usually put up in conven-
tions. An attempt was made to
force this plan on the Democrats
of Graham county but the central
committee refused to adopt it until
the plan, through legislative action,
should be made more perfect.
Other counties adopted the plan
and under it nominated their Dem
Ocratic tickets and the result
proved the wiseness of the course
of the central committee here. We
believe, without exception, charges
of corruption and fraud have been
charged in the counties where the
Crawford plan was adopted. 1t is
charged that in many instances
men of all parties and non-voters
voted for Democratic aspirants for
office.
All admit that conventions are
bad and that the primary law, as it
now stands, is worse. In order to
get relief from this evil it is abso-
lutely necessary that the Dem.
ocratic ticket be elected. The
nominees are all pledged to the
passage of a primary election law,

Those people who were in Ari-
Xona and saw the effect of the in
famous measures adopted toward
the Mormon people by Bob Morri-
son and his kind, do not consider
them dead issues. That plank has
never been repudiated by the Re-
publicans and they stand on it as
much to-day as they did in 1890,
as they do also on Oakes Muir
phys report on the same subject,
and the Democrats of this county
and Territory, whether they be
MormOns or non-Mormons will re-
resent the insult now as strongly
as they did then.
