IT SURPRISED THEM,

The completeness with which the
stake presidents Of this city and county
controlled the votes of the Democratic
members of their hocks and made IRE
publicans' of them, was a surprise even
to the "Federal bunch and its corrupt
and wretched coterie. If the church pol
iticians had been sure on Monday Of the
success of the ecclesiastical mandate
which dragooned the Mormon Demo
Gratis into the support OF the church
Republican candidates they would have
been far richer today than they are.
AS il was, they weakened on a mum.
ber of bets that were offered to them
that they would havo won with the
greatest ease if they had had the nerve
TO accept them.
It appears that the church Republi.
cans had so long and so earnestly de-
MED church influence in politics that
they actually came 10 believe their own
denial in place of the fact; and it was
impossible for them TO accept the idea
that the church was in complete con-
troll Of the votes of its members and
could and would dispose of them as
it pleased, taking bodily the Mormon
branch OF the Democratic party and
compelling il to vote for the church
Republican candidates.
1t was this failure to sense the situa-
ton, this obtuscness TO the force of the
American argument that the church was
not only able tc do it, but had re-
peatedly done it, that lost the church
Republicans great deal of money
that they could have won and were
anxious to win, but did not have the
nerve to put up their money in order

PEACE AND GOOD WILL"

The Deseret News last night called
upon the "victorious party" to exert
its influence for "peaee and good will, -
and, as a starter, it denounced the
American party as the most "selhsh
political autocrat that ever cursed the
community; that the party was Cen
gagged in a proposition TO establish
red light district, that it waged
Campaign Of vilifcatIon claimed
that the party dictators were engaged
in a "revival of the darkest days of
the history of Utah, when the people
suffered both spiritually and temper
ally on account of the prosecutions that
raged,'' and says that "the people
do not propose to turn their homes
over to such party tools to be mort
gagged for the benefit of irresponsible
politicians" and so on
1t followed that ''good will' edito-
rial by another, under the heading,
''Does Bitterness Pay7' in which it
spoke for mildness, candor, and fair
ness. and at the same time charged the
American campaign with being based
upon hatred, reioiced that though "time
was when a Just government could be
deceived into sending an army against
tho settlers Of this valley, by the lies
that were forefathers TO those told
in the late campaign that time was
past, bristled up at the "insult to
the church, and denounced "those
who approached it 1.-THE church, with
insult and bitterness and so on.
| All of which is a fine pattern, in
deed. to set in two editorials, the first
of which speaks for "peace and good
will.' and the other devoted to the
proposition that bitterness does not
pay.
The church organ always was great
"argufer" against the propositions
which itself laid down in its editorials.
Nothing is more common than for the
Deseret News to proclaim purpose
of peace, friendship, and good will, and
Immediately follow that up with tho
utmost bitterness. vindictiveness, Sian.
der, and vituperatiou. The editorials
/ In its columns last night were merely
samples of its usual course, and we
have fairly given the spirit of both
of them in the above quotations.
And this is The sort of thing that
we arc treated TO constantly in Utah

the pretense of fairness. courtesy. can.
dor, good will, and friendhness But
in time the American party will be
able to free the people from all this
and make words stand here as else
where for what they mean.

to win from their opponents. 1t was
a case of man protesting to lie so
long and so fervently that he finally
came to believe it himself, and that
belief prevented them taking a mum
Der of good bets and winning money
from the Americans who pressed the
wagers upon them.
1t is singular. indeed, that the church
Republicans should have become SO
thoroughly imbued with the idea that
the church was not in politics that
they refused to believe tho evidence
that was presented from the church Of
dcials, not only that they were in pol
l:ics, but were exceedingly confident
Of their ability to control the votes
of their followers. In the conference
between the six stake presidents that
was publicly reported by President
Nephi l., Morris, there seemed TO be
no difference Of opinion among those
presidents as to their ability to con
troll the vote of the members of their
church. The only question raised was
by one as to whether it would not be
Just as we'll to throw that vote to the
Democratic candidates. This, however,
was vetoed on the ground of expedi-
eucy, and on that ground alone, No
one apparently suggested that it could
not be done. President Nephi L. Nor
ris, in giving his public report OF that
meeting Of the stake presidents. did not
at any time even hint that there would
be the least difficulty in the stake
presidents throwing the votes of the
members of their church any way they
choose to have that vote thrown. No
doubt Of their ability to control that
vote was manifested at all. And the
result shows that that confidence was
not misplaced. They controlled that
vote absolutely, and swung the Nor.
mon Democrats into the Republican
| line, with scarcely n break or miss
| ing link.
But the joke of it was that the church
! Republicans distrusted the evidence of
their own senses, preferring to adhere
to foolish notion that they have been
iterating and reiterating now for some
thirteen years rather than to take no
tice of and sense the actual occur
rences that were taking place right under
their noses. They lost opportunities TO
wiz thousands Of dollars. Ii was sad
day for them, and may serve as a
lesson in the future as to what they

THEIR BOSS FALSEHoOD.

false charge which undoubtedly
figured to large extent.in getting tho
result won in the recent campaign. was
that which alleged bargain between
the Democratic party and the American
party for the purpose of beating the
church Republicans. This denial was
promptly met and refuted, both from
the American side and the Democratic
side. There was no such bargain; there
were no negotiations for any such bar
gain; there was not the slightest rca
son in truth OF sense in making any
such charge.
On the contrary, as has appeared
since. the bargain and trade were pre-
cisely in the other direction, What
ever bargains made wero between the
church Republicans and the church
Democrats, these uniting agains: the
Americans and in order 10 help tho
hereditary foe Of Democracy. tho Re-
pnblicans. But in Utah the church Re-
publicans are not the hereditary foe
of the church Democrats. AS matter
Of fact, the church Republicans and the
church Democrats affiliate together very
much more closely than Church Demo
crat does with GENTLE Democrat or
church Republican does with Gen
tile Republican, unless he can use that
Gentle Republican for some baseness
too low for the Mormon Republican to
engage in, The church Republicans,
when they have use for Gentle Re
publican, can be very sweet upon him.
They can fawn upon him, they can pat

and statesman now walking on the
earth. But once they are through with
| him, once he has performed the vile de.
tail that they have for him, then they
are through with him, and they will
! turn with relief and joyous fraternity
to Mormon Democrats by preference.
So far as all these affiliations are
concerned, there is not the least doubt
and never has been the least doubt
that the members of the Mormon
church-those we mean who are de-
votedly under the thumb and the direc
tion of the hicrarchy-are much closer
together than any Gentle can possibly
get TO either of them on any sort OF

DOMINANCE MADE PLAIN.

The interference of the church IN po
litics this year was so open, so general
so brazen, so stern, so plain. and so et-
fective, that we presume no one VIII
have the hardhood hereafter TO deny
that interference and the dominance ci
it.
When the president Of the church
used the pulpit in the October confer
ence as n political stump from wh1ch
to advocate the return of the Republi'
can candidates to Congress; when, fol
lowing this lead, the president OF the
stakes here got together, discussed the
proposition of turning the votes of their
Democratic followers TO the Republican
party, and when ono Of those presidents
will, in public meeting. give an open
report of that conference and its result,
calling again and for the third time from
his mouth upon the Democrats of his
church faith to desert their party and
vote for the Republican ticket, there
is nothing possible to say by way OF ex'
tenuation, evasion, or denial. 1t is
plain case of the church being in po-
litics, unrelieved by any need of it being
in politics. save only to protect its Of
ficials who have been grating and job
bling the county for so many years.
| The prctense that the church was at
| tackled was simply fake pretense
| trumped up in order to cover the real
reason why tho church ecclcsiasts en-
tered into politics with the earnestness
and the savagery which they did, even
! going to the extent of saying that the
Mormon Democrat who failed this year
to vote for the Republican local can
didates was ''traitor TO his church.
There can be no further controversy
on this particular matter, and that i:
an important point gained through thi:
campaign. Heretofore there has beer
denial, evasion, and excuse on this point
but henceforth there can be none.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1908-11-05

after every one will know the hollow
ness Of the pretense with which this
claim is urged.
The church in politics is no longer a
theory. It is DO longer question of
argument, deduction, or proof. 1t is a
positive. actual, live. dominating fact;
not only proved by the election re-
turns, but absolutely demonstrated by
the activity of tho ecclesiasts of tho
Mormon church in the latter part of the
campaign and on election day, The
dominating interference of the church
in politics is amply proved, and is no
longer matter for discussion or dis
putc.
