the campaign, and before Mr.. Han
sons forces began to charge their
cannons, the organs of the "Ameri-
can" party were rummaging about in
all the old swill barrels of the city
for matter to be ashamed of and to
put on exhibition for the edification
of the voters. Having run out of
swill early in the game, they began to
hold up the streets, the sidewalks,
business blocks and public buildings,
as ridiculous examples of thriftless-
ness and lack of metropolitanism;
this proved to be a boomerang, and
now, that they have sounded the SEN
timent of the people and learned how
few there are who are really ashamed
of Salt Lake, they are working over
time to show that the very people
whom they expected to be ashamed
built all of those very streets, side
walks, business blocks and public
buildings and therefore have no rea-
son to be ashamed. There is no rea-
son to be ashamed of Salt Lake,
hence there is no reason for voting
the american" ticket.
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1905-10-21

The present game of the "Ameri-
can" party is to divide the opposition
to this public enemy which has arisen
BY that means they hope to slip into
power. They and their paid workers
are going around telling people who
will listen to them that the fight is
between Morris and Thompson and
that Lynch will be low man. This is
all nonsense. The contest will, be-
yond all doubt, be between the Repub-
licans and the Americans" with Nor
ris and his Democratic crowd bad
third in the race. The Kearns Ameri-
cans know that very well, but there
are a number of people who may be
induced to vote for Morris, who under
no circumstances could be induced to
support Thompson, and the "Ameri-
cans" figure, and rightly so, that a
vote for Morris is in reality a vote for
Thompson. They want to entice the
opposition into playing their game
One thing is absolutely certain: that
is, that if the opposition to the Kearns
crowd allows itself to be split up, the
Kearns crowd will win, and that would
be the worst calamity that could come
upon this city.

The little Weakly organ of the op-
position calls attention to the mac
tivity of the Republican party and at
tributes it to an absence of hope. No,
neighbor, you are mistaken, as usual.
The Republicans are working dill
gently to let the people know the real
conditions which have made discrim-
nation necessary.
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1905-10-21

The most important thing to be done
for the benefit of this city and state
is to defeat the American" party of
knockers at the coming election. They
are public enemies and for the good of
the public SHOULD be put out of bust
ness. This election will mark a crisis
in the history of the knockers. II
they are beaten this time that will be
the end of the revenge society. On
the other hand, if they should win and
get control of the city, it would mean
the continuance of the strife, turmoil
and knocking at home AMI abroad, for
years. Voters should consider the best
means to administer to the mavericks
a decisive blow. 1t is the paramount
issue of this campaign. If the oppo-
nents of the knockers don't concen-
trate their strength on the Republican
ticket it will mean that between the
Democrats and Republicans the
Americans" will slide into Office. A
vote for Morris means a vote for
Thompson.

Whenever, in the course of events,
it becomes necessary for the Repub-
lican party to unite for the overthrow
of an enemy or the espousal of
principle, they have never been found
lacking. Such a time has come to
them here in Salt Lake and now.
Never have the individual members
of the Republican party had a better
opportunity to assert their manhood
and loyalty to party and country than
now. The party has been assailed
the honor and integrity of its men,
bers brought into question. the well
fare of the community threatened.
and it is time to act. The call ITO
Arms" has been sounded and it is the
duty of all loyal Republicans to re-
spond. That they will respond and
stick together until the enemy is driv-
en- across the last ditch, recent his
tory proves. The enemy of today is
only a remnant of the band with
which we had to deal with year ago,
but it is nevertheless necessary to
keep together and make the rout so
complete that there will be no more
trouble. If the American party is
beaten badly this year, they have
promised to withdraw a thousand OF
their best men across the border after
they have shaken the dust of the fray
eff their sox. so that the chances of
another similar attack are very re-
mote. Stay with the Old Flag and
you will never have occasion to be
ashamed of it.

The Herald Of Thursday morning

We are reminded every morning be-

ourselves an avalanche of outside cap

hotel men, such as Holmes, Wey, Por-

Out of one hundred random reproduc-

don't you get more water?" "You can
never build much of city here unless

securing of an adequate water supply,
and that, too, before next summer, is

be calamity for Salt Lake City to be
compelled to pass through another
water famine like that we have Just
experienced. We must have more
water than we have had, and our sup.
ply must be taken better care of than
before" And Lynch is backed by a
political party that can and will do
what 1t says. Thompson says:
"A-hem, water is irrelevant, imma.

backed by an organ and a party that
says "O-hell!" to anything and every

Summed up, Mr.. Kearns' present

And arrayed in the robes of an apos-
