TRUTH

chicanery to deceive and hoodwink
the honest voter.
For these reasons the overthrow of
the present administration will be
found very difficult. 1t will require
constant and strenuous effort and
united opposition to accomplish it.
Every nerve must be strained. Vigi-
lence and constant work are neces-
sary. If these are put forth it can be
done, but not without them.
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1907-10-12

1t is a notable fact that grating
and thieving municipal governments
are difficult to overthrow. When
party with principles of that sort fas-
tens itself on a community it spreads
its tentacles out in all directions and
forms alliances which are hard to
break. Public graft unfortunately ap-
peals to a large number of persons in
any city and many make business of
it and a fat living out of it, hence
grating administration finds plenty
of willing tools to assist in robbing
the public for share of the plumber.
New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and
San Francisco are striking examples
Of the exceeding tenacity with which
corrupt municipal officials hold on to
their jobs. The struggle which finally
ended in the overthrow of Boss
Tweed and his gang was long and
bitter. So was the fight which ter
minated in the downfall of the mayor
of San Francisco and his gang of
boodlers. The American people are
long suffering and it takes time and
persistent effort to arouse them.
When they are aroused, however, they
are quick and decisive in their action.
The american" party of Salt Lake,
which controls the city, is primarily
and secondarily and every other way
a party of graft and thievery. To
observing people the evidence of this
is so Overwhelmingly convincing that
no doubt of it remains in their minds.
The trouble, however, is that so many
neither observe nor think. Facts that
are plain and patent have to be ham
mered into them from day to day and
week to week and month to month
before they are fully realized. In Salt
Lake the American" party has a
host of lieutenants ever busy and
vigient in their efforts to nullify and
dscredit the effect of the plain truth
Practically every employee of the city
is a tool of the boodling administra-
ton. They are primed with specious
arguments and are adopts in distorting
and CLOSING over discriminating facts
and scandalous misconduct on the
part Of officials. They and their lead
ers invent and practice all kinds of

TRUTHS.

District Attorney Loofbourow is
pretty certain of denomination next
year.
The American party is three
years old and makes a good deal of
noise for its age.
To observe the amount of conf
dence exhibited at the various party
headquarters, one would think the
town was overrun with confidence
men.
Many bets are being offered with
few if any takers. This does not ar
que indifference as to the situation,
necessarily; it may mean a shortage
of cash on one side or the other pos
sibly both.
Truth begs to thank the newspap,
ers, both daily and weekly, through
out the state for the many very COM
plimentary comments they were
pleased to make on the industrial
edition of Truth of September 18th.
Dick Morris is the only one of the
leading candidates who has been there
before land he bears his honors with
modesty at once unaffected and
striking. As to that, however, no
fault is to be found with any of them.
Sam Thurman may possibly attri-
butte his well-fed and well-groomed
appearance to keeping out of the
arena and hold ng down a grandstand
seat while the present race is going
on. He is, no doubt, an interested
spectator, but not in a personal or
financial sense.
Conference, the Fair and the con-
ventions are just past; the campaign
is on, the election is not far off and
then there will be nothing much in
the line of amusements, but the sew
enteen or more theatres and Thanks
giving day till Christmas. How lone
ly we will be.

THE LATE STATE FAIR.

Opinions may, as they always do,
differ regarding details, but there is
yet to be heard the voice of disson-
ance regarding the greatness and sur
passing greatness of the late State
Fair as whole. This expansiveness
is not to be confined to the attraction
itself, but reaches out to and embraces
the patronage, which is far and away
ahead of that ever given to any other
exhibition of any kind in the entire
history of the commonwealth. Such
crowds of people! Such confusion in
the gathering and such a jam and
jostle and crush afterward! And right
here, without designing to be invidi-
Gus or unjustly critical, permit us to
say as a matter of comment what
everybody who was there knows as
matter of fact-the street car service
was painfully inadequate to the work
of transportation. Going down was
invariably a squeeze amounting al
most in some cases to physical injury,
while coming away, especially late in
the day, was little less than a cruci-
fxion.
No matter about that now. The
memory of what was there to be seen
and heard effaces all unpleasantness.
One can only see that monster dis
play of equines, embrCcing every
thing and all things from the Clyde
and Percheron each tipping the beam
at ton or therabout down through
all the intermediate stages to the Lii
putian Shetland no bigger than
Newfoundland dog, not one or two
of each, but droves-an aggregation
of horsehesh values equaing that of
some of our best mines.
And speaking of dogs-did anybody
ever see anything at all to compare
with the collection at the fair! Acres
of them, it seemed like, all pedigreea
and mostly registered, embracing
everything in the canine kingdom and
each of the breeds as strongly repre-
scented numerically as the horses.
While the industry does not attract
as much attention or keep the results
of its work as conspicuously before
the public as almost any of the others,
the fact is potent that dogdom is by
no means being neglected in our
midst and that we can not only make
as good an exhibit as could be done
elsewhere in the land, but have act
ually done so.
Then there is the display of that
department of Utah's present and
growing wealth which is promising
if not actual rival of agriculture prop
er and mining, live stock, this embrac-
ing all the making as we'll as 9TH
erwise productive four-footers-cattle,
sheep, goats and swine. Nothing like

coming more and more interesting
as the fateful day draws nearer and
nearer. One gratifying feature is the
curtailed amount of boasting and
Dragging by partisans who talk for eff
feet and give but little help any 9TH
err way, albeit there is no admission
that the jawsmithing is a help; all
that is reduced 20 a minimum this
time, because eXtravagant claims from
any source would be so discourage
ingly received that the greater part
of the incentive in gone All Of which
is very good, for Two reasons: Being
kind of nuisance it is in and of it.
self good thing to get rid of; and
by showing that each of the parties
realizes it has no walkover and needs
all the votes it has and can get we
are having more legitimate methods
of campaigning.
1t may be asked if this is not con-
siderable of a concession, coming as
it does from paper with pronounced
views regarding political affairs. The
answer is that it is no concession, as
that word is commonly considered, at
all; it is merely a diagnosis of the
case impartally made and honestly
expressed. No amount of political
or other basis or preference should
ever cause the writer or speaker to
call spade a pitch ford or to deny
the existence of things which are
plainly manifest and this paper does
nothing of that kind if it knows it.
AS a supplemental statement the be-
lief is hereby expressed that the party
of Our choice is numerically stronger
than either of the others, but not
stronger than the two largest COM
bined, nor could any other one party
beat the others acting together; but
even with a decided plurality to enter
the field with, the party having it
could be beaten by irresolution and
inaction.
Right here permit the remark that
the campaign at the best must be
very short and a good deal of valu-
able time has been, and in lesser de-
gree is yet, being unimproved as it
ought to be. The educational phase
will have to be practically eliminated
and the work of holding the voters
we have and getting additional ones
be accomplished by more active me-
thods than pedagogic showing; in
which capacity the newspaper para
grapher is lengths ahead of the long
winded essayist with his labored edi-
torials punctuated with figures and
flatuent with strained conclusions;
also the rallies with the preceding
marches and music will count for
more than canvassing and COMPARE
sons, however carefully done.
