MR.. cAREY's SPEECHES.
Man Interested in His
Trust Affiliations.

To The Salt Lake Herald.
Former Senator Joseph NJ. Carey OF
Wyoming, who is telling Utah audiences
how to vote, is regarded by those who
know him best one of the most val
liable citizens Wyoming possesses and
this despite his political views. Political
~, Mr.. Carey is without influence in MS
own state He was United States SEN
ator for a short time, but he never ac-
cepted the free silver doctrine, and his
dear friend. Francis f. Warren. who re-
wouldn't long permit Cheyenne men to
hold both of the senatorships, Srasped
the opportunity 20 eliminate Mr.. Carey
from politics. Warren and the Repub-
lican party were for Silver. with a cap
ital 5. till Sheol froze solid. till death do
us part, and then some. The Republican
organization, under Mr.. Warrens care
ful administration, was also against ev-
erything else that Mr.. Carey was for.
Hence the exit OF Mr.. Carey. Even when
the Republican party Of Wyoming, still
under Mr. Warren's guidance. declared
for all the things that had been the cause
of Mr. Carey's undOing. Mr.. Carey was
still persona non grata TO the legislatures.
He did not, however, ever become a can
didate for the senatorship again. For
truth 10 tell. Mr.. Carey is not and never
was politician. He probably wouldn't
ask a man to vote for him for any office
though this may possibly be because of
his long experience in territorial days of
Wyoming in holding office by appoint
ment.
Mr.. Careys affiliations. however, have
never been popular. With other men,
1ers of his family he helped organize the
National Wall Paper company. a trust
that failed to flourish long For some
reason or other, il languished and a few
years ago died This vas not due 10 lack
of energy on the part of Mr.. Carey and
his associates. At the time il was said
that the tariff wasn't high enough to en-
able the trust to absolutely shut out for
eign competition and so exact from the
American people the exclusive tribute
necessary in order to destrOJ smaller
American competitors. After the dissolu-
ton of the trust. the Carey Bros. of Phil
adelphia resumed their place as one of
the conspicuous houses of the country
Mr.. Carey is probably the only real
trust builder that the Republican party
VIII bring into the state during this cam
paign- Many of his admirers would like
TO have heard him discuss the trusts. but
in this they have been disappointed

that the voters of Utah might have ex-

of this city, for a writ of certiorari look
ing TO review of the case before the

The employees Of lions Cooperative
Mercantile Institution. in a straw vote
taken yesterday, give Jesse William
Knight majority of nine votes over
William Spry. The vote was a great
surprise. because Of the fact that Will
liam Spry was formerly a floor walker
in tho store. and because of the fact
that II was estimated that at least so
per cent of the employees are Repub-
leans.
This store. which is controlled by
leading officials in the Mormon church.
has perhaps 90 per cent Mormon en-
ployes. The efforts Of the gum shOers
and the whisperers have apparently
little effect upon these employees, who
are voting for their choice, no matter
what is said by those who seek to in
struct them.
Jesse William Knight receives 60
votes from the employees of this store
and William Spry SO votes. The vote
on president was - for Taft and 45
for Bryan. which indicates that Spry

ticket. Republicans preferring to vote
for the Democratic candidate rather
than for the choice of the federal
bunch.
A canvass was taken during the last
Z Jew utNS OF Atlt tpbifililS houStS III N4lt
F'ifty-fourth district in Salt Lake City.
The people living in these houses are
for the most part working men. Only
registered voters were permitted to
vote in this straw ballot. Bryan re-
ceived s. votes from these men, Taft 81
and Debs H. a surprising feature was
the fact that Debs received such a
small vote. From the same voters
knight received 90 votes, Spry is and
Street II.
A poll of the voters of Stockton,
taken a few days ago. gives Bryan IS,
Taft As. Knight 81 and Spry 80. Four
years ago there We're scarcely enough
Democrats in Stockton TO keep up the
organization. The fact that Knight
runs ahead of Spry in this town is
surprising. inasmuch as the town is
located in TOoele county, where Spry
made his home for years.
\ revision of the total straw vote
taken to date shows gains for Bryan
and indicates a landslide for Knight.
