DARK CITY. Oct. s.-Judge W. H.
King OF Salt Lake City. the Dem
ocratic nominee for congress, made
many votes for himself and his party
by the speech ne delivered here tonight
in Dewey theatre. The play house was
crowded. which is more than the Re
publicans can boast of the reception
given the night before TO Joseph How
ell the Republican nominee for con-
gress: United States Senator Tom
Kearns and Ben Rich. who spoke on
the political Issues of the campaign
from the same platform. Long before
| Judge King was introduced by ex-May-
or George Smith, the house was hlled.
All through the hour and a half speech
he delivered. about fifty men stood in
the rear of the theatre attentively lis
tening 10 every word the Democratic
candidate had TO say. The audience.
which was a most representative one,
gave him its undivided attention
throughout his logical argument.
Thrown Out OH His Head
Once or twice there was an attempt
on the part OF discourteous Republicans
!
by breaking in upon the judge when
ne made some especially telling point
either against the principles of the Re
publican party or tore to pieces some
assertion Of one OF the orators Of the
evening before. 1t may be an injustice
10 the local Republicans 10 accuse them
of deliberately planning such tactics,
but 1t did appear that way to disin-
terested listeners.
At one juncture a Republican stand
ing in the rear of the theatre called out
at the tUp OF his voice, Its liei" in
answer TO an assertion made by Judge
King. In less time than il takes to
recount the incident, the Republican
was grasped by the coat collar by Sher-
III Mair and thrown bodily through the
swinging doors leading into the thea
tire. landing on his head in the foyer.
After that incident the interrupting
Republicans held their peace and let
the judge continue his speech. To-
wards the latter end of his speech,
Judge King brought every union man
in the theatre to his feet with yell
and a waving of hats when he made
answer to an asse stion made the night
before by Ben III A man in the
audience rose to mis- feet and asked the
judge to correct the statement that
Rich had made that the judge, while in
congress, had done no work, but had
talked to the galleries.
Union Men Applauded.
In a partial outline of what he had
accomplished while Utah's representa-
tive in Washington. Judge King said
that he hoped to frame the bill which
will prevent federal judges from send
ing union men to prison by injunction
without process of a jury trial.
Before the last words had hardly left
the lips of the speaker the union men
in the audience rose TO their feet and
cheered. 1t was an inspiring scene,
which lasted several minutes.
Judge King was given strict atten-
ton throughout his speech, which was
a mastery discourse upon the many
fallacies of the Republican party, bro
ken promises to bride the trusts and
the unholy war which the administra-
ton is Waging in the Philippines.
Only once during the evening did the
judge speak the least disparagingly OF
Mr.. Howell, and that was in reply to
the statement the latter made the
night before to the effect that If the
people of Utah did not send a Repub-
lican senator and representative to
congress this fail the admin1Stra-
ton would oppose the interests of Utah
as a punishment. Judge King said
that Mr.. Howell was belittling himself
when he made such an assertion: that
he was too good a man 10 talk that
way. and was saying something of the
Republican party which was not true.
adding that such a method of cam
paignIng would never be successful. Z.
nj. jackson also spoke.
Rally a Grand Success.
The marked difference in the size of
the two rallies was the subject Of con-
Yersation on the streets after the meet
ing adjourned. The Republicans ad-
mitted that Judge King not only had
the larger audience but made a more
able, effective and convincing speech
than either Kearns, Howell or Rich,
and that he held his audience far bet
ter than the three combined. Judge
King had a larger house when he con-
GUIDED his speech than the Republican
trio had when they began. The latter
lost about a third OF their audience
I'm still wanting more.
