the campaign in this city tonight.
He was greeted by a splendid
audience, one Of the finest ever as
senbled here. 1t was an enthusiastic
gathering. too, Mr.. King being re-
ceiyed in magnificent style, while his
remarks were continuously applauded.
The house was packed to the doors.
County Chairman Fullmer presided
at the meeting and introduced Judge
King, who. after paying an eloquent
tribute TO the ability of r. w. Young
that was loudly applauded. entered in
to a discussion of tho issues. He first
took up the argument that solid con-
gressional delegation is needed to OBJ
tain anything for Utah from the
national government. "If Won think"
said he, that the Republican party
Is so mean, so ungenerous, SO unfair
as to demand that the people of Utah
snail sacrifice their honest convictions
to obtain their rights, then you have
the strongest indictment against it
that can be brought. Such an argu-
ment is only used by towards and
sycophants. Thomas Kearns stands in
perfect harmony with the national adj
ministration, yet you cannot point to
single law whose passage he has Sc
cured Name just one little law for
the benefit Of Utah that Thomas
Kearns has introduced"
Reprehensible Methods.
Speaking of Republican campaign
methods, Mr.. King said: Il know men
sare going up and down this state whis
pering. That is a sinister argument
that cannot be met If any man has
arguments to offer why the people of
Utah should vote for the Republican
party let him come in the daylight
where We can see him and analyze his
reasons The Democratic party wants
only fair play. loud applause)
Stand by your principles. Don't
accept the whispered advise of any
man. Don't believe the story that
Utah viii be denied its rights il the
state goes Democratic. Don't think
that any sort of man viii do to rep
resent you in Washington, so long as
he is Republican. That is only an
apology for Thomas Kearns Why not
elect a deaf and dumb man to 90
there? He wouldn't be able to bother
any one else or be bothered by them"
Taking up Kearns' statement that the
Republican party passed the irrigation
bill, he tore it to flinders, proving that
1t was in greater part a Democratic
measure.
"A. B. Irvine went down into the
south the other day." said King land
made the statement that unless we
vote for the Republican party we shall
receive none of the S6,OO0.OOO appropri-
ated by the irrigation bill. He was
heralded as a good Latter-day Saint
and son-in-law of the late George Q.
Cannon II I came here with such a
recommendation 1 ought not to be per-
mitted to speak. 1 DO not believe in
4
1tics. It is diShonOrable and unfair"
Mercenary Arguments.
The imperialistic policy of the Re
publican party was most elOquently
and vigorously repudiateu. You can't
have Imperialism abroad ond not have
it at home sooner or later" said the
speaker. Every argument that Re
publicans present to you in this cam
paign is a mercenary one. You do not
~hear them mention the constitution,
the Declaration of Independence, free
dom, liberty or human rights. It is all
commercialism, all argument intended
TO bolster up the cause of gold and
greed. Democracy appeals to your
nobler feelings and aspirations, asks
you to assert your manhood and to
stand for simple, plain, pure Ameri-
canism."
Judge King paused for short time
Wnlle MISS Greta CARBON rendered a
solo which was loudly encOred. The
Democratic glee club rendered three
capital selections, after which Mr.. King
resumed his remarks.
He punctured the hard times argu-
ments of the Republicans. The trust
question was handled in a way that
drew forth the most tremendous ap-
plause. Throughout the NEE ing which
was a lengthy one, enthusiasm was
rampant. the audience cheering the
speaker to the echo. The name of
Kearns was mentioned several times
and upon each occasion IL was greet
ed with ridicule, jeers and laughter.
Each time that the speaker made a
sally at the junior senator the crowd
encouraged him to continue along that
line. When he apologized for putting
his thumbs in his vest, saying: 'Kearns
has a patent on that attitude, the |
house fairly screamed.
The audience gave the best Of atten-
ton during the entire speech and when !
the speaker concluded gave him an
ovation. It was the best political meet |
ing the Democrats ever held here and /
its influence win be felt tomorrow.
