ing; "And the bramble said unto the
trees, If in the truth we annoint me
king over you, then come and put
your trust in my shadow; and if not
let the fire come out OF the bramble
and devour the cedars of Lebanon"
Just previous to the above parable
in the above chapter Abimilech want
ed to be king and by using his kim
ship as bait he persuaded his bro
theirs to make him king in the fol-
lowing terms: Yer. 4.-"And they
gave him three score and ten pieces
of silver out of the house of Baal
BERTH wherewith Abimilech hired
vain and light persons which follow
cd him." Ver 5.-"And he went I'M
to his fathers house at .Ophrah, and
slew his brethren, being three score
and ten persons" Yer 6.-"And all
the men of Scheckem gathered to-
gether, and all the house of Milo,
and went and made Abimilech king"
lothian ("Who had done that which
was right in the sight of the Lord')
said, "Hearken unto me, we men of
Scheckem;" "the trees went forth on
time to annoint a king over them
They first ask the olive tree to be
their king, but the olive tree said it
had too good job to be king. They
then asked the fig tree and then the
vine, but they all made some excuse;
but when they came to the bramble
bush (the most insignificant of alll
it swelled out its little Tom Kearns'
chest and said unto the trees, eff in
truth we annoint me king over you,
then come and get under my shadow;
and if not, let fire come out of the
bramLle (The Tribune) and devour
YOU"
To any intelligent person in Salt
Lake the above parable can be di-
rectly applied to the American party
who Amounted bramble-bush Tom
Kearns TO rule over Salt Lake City.
The people knew Abimilech's record
before they made him king. They
knew he had taken three score and
ten pieces of silver and hired vain
and light persons to follow him.
They also knew he slew three score
and ten persons. Knowing what kind
of man Abimilech was, "All the
men of Schechem gathered together
and made Abimilech king"
History repeats itself" The peo-
pie of Utah knew Tom Kearns' re.
cord; they knew he left Nebraska
bearing the brand of Cain and under
an assumed name; they knew he was
ignorant, uncouth and revengeful;
that his record in Utah has been un-
savory, licentious and vile; that with
"three score and ten pieces of silver
he hired vain and light persons" as
pluggers and boosters to put him into
office. The people of Salt Lake also
knew that Kearns had disgraced the
United States Senate and betrayed
the people of Utah who put him in
