Republican Insinoerity Here.

There are one or TWO tnlnSs IN tne 10
cal situation to which l wish to call your
attention. The Republican party has re-
Gently become so careful of its good name
that it declines to allow the names of its
nominees for president and vice president
of the United States to go on any other
ticket. Not only that, but with show
of friendship that is remarkable, it has
urged that the Democrats also preserve
their good name by forcing their electors
to withdraw frOmzthe American ticket
But the Bryan electors will not be
withdrawn from any ticket. We believe
that the election of w j. Bryan as pres
ident of the United States is of far more
Importance than the election of all of the
Democratic candidates for office. The
Republicans in this county would prefer
the election of a few paltry county Off
GERS to the election of their candidate for
president.
"As an illustration of the insincerity OF
the Republicans in their action, do you
suppose for one moment that if the
dorse the Republican legislative ticket
that the Republicans would think of
withdrawing?
I'VE are going to elect w. ]. Bryan to
be president of the United States, and We
are not going to put any stumbling blocks
in his way. And when we elect Mr..
Bryan we will put an end TO the federal
ring that controls politics in Utah,
Everybody Welcome.
we welcome all Americans. Social
lists. Prohibitionists and Republicans to
vote for Mr.. Bryan. We want to make
it unanimous. And If there are any
Americans who will vote the Taft ticket
after the snub they have received. a
guardian should be appointed for them.
They will be voting for four years more
of snubbing; If by any chance Taft
on Taft front veranda and you viii be
around at the kitchen door begging for
crumbs.
p
Bryan We want TO get you together on
some grounds. Join with US and vote the
entire Democratic ticket The Repub-
licans have argued that you ought to vote
administration You know that Mr..
Bryan is. sweeping the nation. | Just
heard today that Hartman had conceded
Bryan's election The Republican argu-
ment ought to work both ways. Vote the
Democratic ticket and stand in with the
incoming administration.
When you vote the Republican legis-
lative ticket you vote for the return of
Reed Smoot. and Reed Smoot is going TO
be pretty lonesome back there. Z He GER
tainly won't be in position. toS get any
favOrs from a Democratic administration.
Send someone back In sympathy with the
administration.
