The only" says Ito join the new
party movement is useless, but come
over to us and smash Smoot." If the
republicans want to smash Smoot
they can do it without smashing the
whole republican party, the result Of
supporting the democratic ticket.
The solcitude Of the democratic
party for those republicans who are
under the So-called Smoot
machine is nothing short Of wonder
full. Their sympathy is so great one
could almost imagine that the Denis
are the ones suffering from it. When
the republicans get ready to smash
Smoot they will not go to the demo-
cratic party to do 1t.

Last Monday the commissioners
held a regular meeting and at that
meeting were submitted two reports
that reflect in a way on an ex-Demo-
cratic otlicial's method OF carrying out
the duties of his Office. During the
past year, the commissioners have
had before them for consideration
various matters that reflected upon
the democratic administration Of
years past, and it is a significant fact
that the local organ of opposi-
ton, 1.-The only" immaculate, has
carefully expugned from its reports of
these meetings everything that SEEM
ed even slightly unfavorable. Mon
days meeting it ignored entirely.
This is the way the Journal gives the
news.

The Responsibility.

IF Cutler Is elected, the church
must have the credit of doing it,: IL he
Is defeated, the church will be to
blame. If Roosevelt and Fairbanks
are defeated in Utah, it will be be-
cause the church wants it so.-The
Tribune.
The people of this great common
wealth will not be misled into believ-
ing any such rot. If Mr.. Cutler is
elected it must be credited to the fact
that there are in this State thousands
of republicans of higher stamp than
Tom Kearns the bolter. If Mr.. Cut
Ter is defeated, it must be attributed
to Senator Kearns, his money and
The Tribune. If Roosevelt and Fair
banks loose three electoral votes in
Utah 1t must be attributed to the
fact that Senator Kearns gave to an
other party the organ that made it
possible to voice itself and exist.
None should mistake any of these
points. Granting that principle may
be the incentive back Of the new party
move, it is certain that that new party
could not have had an existence or at
least could not have exerted any great
influence at this time but for the fact
that Tom Kearns gave it the State or
gan which has always supported re-
publicanism. II the republican ticket
Is defeated Tom Kearns Is the man
who deserves the blame. A few weeks
ago democrats generally admitted
that their chances were slim. What
Is 1t today that has raised their hopes
into the belief that they will be VIC
torious? Nothing but the Kearns
bolt and the Tribune's present atti-
tude. Tom Kearns, and not the
church, will be responsible for any
slump in the republican party vote.

The republican who casts his vote
for any nominee Of the new party
really casts two against the COP. and
does his own cause no particular good.

Influences.

Any influence, money, church,
threat or what not, that serves to keep
a voter from exercising his honest
judgment is to be deplored, and it
cannot be said that one is more repre-
than the other if it accom-
plishes its purpose. Hon. Orlando w.
Powers, present democratic nominee
for Congress, and for years the ayowed
champion OF everything anti-church,
has raised his voice many times
against church influence in politics,
and yet in his speech before the demo-

The Tribune asks "why will Nor
mon democrats refuse to vote for
Moyle," inLimating that only church
influence" could cause them to do so.
Democrats in this county did not
vote for him four years ago for the
reason that as state chairman he did
not act honorably in certain political
matters He may have been as dis
honorable elsewhere. And again, a
good democrat said here recently that
Moyle is not popular In any sense,
that he is an aristocrat, one Of those
uppish fellows who won't look at you
unless he is wanting something. In
campaign times he comes off his perch
little, but has disposition generally
that he is not greatly beloved. This
may not lose him any votes now, Of
course, for slump in his vote must
be attributed to Church influence,
but the facts remains that these
things lost him votes before.

1t is interesting to note that Mr..
Joseph Lippman, Kearnss right hand
bower and manager of the Salt Lake
Tribune, is a member Of the firm OF
Powers, Straup & Lippman. The
Tribune and Mr.. Lippman exclude
Mr.. Straup from among those on the
republican state ticket whom they
are lighting. 1t is presumed that
Mr.. Straup was not nominated by
that remarkable influence which the
smooth Lippman is fighting so siren
uously, OF course the worthy Joseph
would not support him otherwise. 1t
is also significant that by his advocacy
of party which is certain to draw
only from republicanism, Mr.. Lipp.

Democratic SCheminq.

The latest method of local demo-
Gratis by which they hope to relegate
republicanism to deep hole behind
the sheep corral, is to cuss Smoot and
Smootism TO finish, in public way,
and then on the quiet say to "the
brethren" that the best way to keep
BRO" Smoot in his seat is for them
to vote the democratic ticket. These
willy sons Of Jefferson, (whom he would
disown if he were aliye) put up great
talk to the effect that the election Of
the democratic ticket this time will
convince the world, the congressional
committees and everybody else that
church influence" doesn't exist in
Utah. 1t follows that when this Is
demonstrated by this very unique
method, Mr.. Smoot will be welcomed
with open arms, q crown will be plac-
cd upon his head and he Will be i'm
plored to keep his seat in the Senate
to he United States. The fight made
against him and the Mormon people
will be hushed and turned into lauda-
tions if the people will but vote the
democratic ticket to prove that there is
noundue influence here. It's said that
this scheme is being pushed with con-
siderable strenuosity at Wellsville and
other places and that some of the
brethren are inclined to view this
treachery with considerable favor.
Such methods, even corrupt in poll
tics, are damnable, fully as bad as any
undue influence exerted by church
officials. The election OF the demo-
cratic ticket will prove nothing to
the world, the congressional body,
or anybody else, other than the fool
ishneSs Of republicans. Smoot will be
retained or unseated on constitu-
tional ground, by men above reproach
in the matter of honor and judgment,
men who care nothing about how
Utah goes politically. The election
of Powers and the democratic state
ticket will save the people of Utah
nothing but the disappointment of
democracy, and the voters of Cache
do not want to forget it. The cleo
tion of the democratic ticket this
time means nothing more than three
electoral votes against the best friend
the west ever had, Theodore RooSe-
welt; it means three votes against the
policy of protection to home indust-
rics; it means three votes for the free
trade policy and the disruption that
comes with it; it means defeat for a
republican representative in Congress,
it means set back for the republican
party just at time when it has
fought its way through the lire of
democratic vindictiveness, abuse and
arrogance, The people do not want
to be misled into believing anything
else. The democrats are IN this fight
to win and they care not by what meth

for the defeat Of his cherished ambi-

Do The Best ThinQ.

Every man wants to do the best he
may for his country. DO you think it
best for your country at this time to
try an experiment that has failed in
Great Britain, that has been discarded
by nearly all the great European
powers and that proved such dismal
failure when practiced, even to a very
small extent, by the United States?
1T Is for you to decide and decide
now. If you make mistake you will
have to bear the burden, you will
have to shoulder the responsibility.
You are certain that under the policy
inaugurated by the republican party
the country has prospered, but you are
doubtful what fare the inauguration
OF democratic policies might bring
you.
Is it not your duty, therefore, to let
well enough alone, to refuse to try ex-
periments and theories unless it is
plainly shown to you that such expert
ments and such theories are more
likely to result in benefits now than
they were when tried before?
The republican party points to sue
cess. The democratic party can only
point to succession Of failures.
Which party will you ally yourself
with?

About Regulations

Contrary to "thc only's" assertions,
republicans have no desire to tear
good mems regulations down for po-
litical advantage" However, they do
have no hesitancy in declaring against
corruption and incompetency in pub
lie Office, regardless Of who the man or
men concerned may be. The recent
investigation of the county records
showed conclusively, beyond the doubt
of even the most violent democratic
partisan, that for several years there
had been collision to cover up what
was shown to be incompetency II no.
thing more, and yet they howl about
regulations" when this Is mentioned.
For years each succeeding official car
ried and covered up known discrepan-
cies in the books of the clerk and
treasurer and If reports are correct,
the ex-democratic clerk was indignant
that Clerk Larsen would not accept
his books as he had been compelled to
accept them--in bad shape and I'M
balanced.
There is no pleasure in mentioning
these things, but it is part Of polit-
ical warfare, and when the organ rep
resenting tile gentlemen concerned
seeks to cast halo about the admin
istration under which such things
happened, then it is time for the bat
terics to get in their work.
Men may run on their merits, and
all want to see meritorious men win,
but when after years Of continuance
In office 1t Is discovered that the rep
resentatives of certain party have
not held their trust in the sacred way
II should have been held, is there any
good reason why representatives Of
that same party should be selected
again? And again, when it IS once
discovered that its representatives
are in a hole, is it any credit for the
leaders OF the democratic party and
the erring officials to go to such length
as was clearly evident in the recent
contest case? 1t is generally admitted
that ex-clerk Farrell had no desire to
enter into a contest for the Office of
clerk. He believed he was beaten, and
whether he believed 1t or not, had no
desire to wage a contest. However,
guided on by the democratic officials
and party leaders who knew what an
investigation would bring forth, he
submitted and the contest was
brought on in the hope that the day
could be saved. That was a rotten af-
fair, despite the efforts of the friends
of the gentlemen concerned to give it
an honorable appearance. The only
difficulty with the men seeking to
cover up the trouble was that they
hadn't the nerve to 60 far enough
The conviction of deputy on charge
Of embe2zlement does not excuse the
old court house ring, for long before
Mr.. Clayton was in any way concerned
the books at the court house were in
sadly mixed condition, and for the
sake Of democracy this knowledge was
hidden until the election of republi-
can clerk made concealmenU an i'm
possibility.
There is no disposition to tear down
honest mems regulations, an honest
man is seldom in danger. However, if
the recital of facts concerning such
matter as was uncovered at the
court house reflects to the discredit of
the democratic party and its officials,
they must grin and bear it.
