nrM,nK,nuE CONTRADICTIONS


Tho closer the confession OF the so
called American organ OF sept TO- u
scrutinized. the More evident It be-
comes that IL is characteristic Of that
party mouihpiece.
The confession begins with the
statement that "Tho American party
has made good It's pledges and 'ac-
complishcd more than its most enthu-
siastic friends had fondly hoped IL
would
The party was started with the deter
mination on the part Of its oiginators

Utah ever had out Of the United
states senate. and then gradually dis
franchisiug every "Mormos some
such pledges were probably made. but
IL IS evident 10 an now that Sc has

it shall always fail in such un-Amer1-
can plots
Rut the confession carefully avoids
an reference 90 this first and chief
aim Of the party leaders. It claims that
the party has pushed the city into
the column Of entcrprising, wide-awake,
western cities.
By whom has this been accom-
plshed Let the organ answer. u tells
ms that incompetents, derelicts. and
self-seekers have obtained preferment
in the city. because the majority Of the
better element of Americans stayed
away from the primaries and per
mitted the other element TO run the
elections. and by such methods the
PARTY obtained results far surprising
anything its most enthusiastic friends
had fondly hoped il would" The sheet
has really surpassed itself, this time
The truth is the party started in
with the most corrupt administration
the city ever had when matters had
come TO such a pass THAI citizens were
In revolt, Mr.. Bransford was induced

Mayor Mr.. Bransford has tried TO do
his level best, but he has been fought
and hampered by party leaders. so
that his influence has been very much
mlnimized. And in the matter OF the
stockade Il II understood that he was
simply betrayed by party advisers. Mr.
Bransford might have saved the CITY

victory OF self-seekers over the better
element. had he not too often yielded

The project TO unite in one great

alton OF the national resources is one
OF the best signs OF approaching results
in this splendid Undertaking

states that the erosion and soil wash
should cease. that arid and semi-arid
lands should be reclaimed by means Of
irrigation; that swamp and overlooked

At Arrow Rock.

The editor Saturday made a visit
to Arrow Rock "between trains",
driving over from Blackwater. Our
time was SO short that but very lit
tie business could be done yet the
people we met treated us very well.
On the way over we took the
name of G.. W.Lauterbach as a new
subscriber to try the paper. We
also made a stop at Walter Browns
who treated us finely. He gave us
a check for $500 and an invitation
TO dinner which we regretted very
much to be compelled to turn down
as the appearance of his pace in
dicated that they live well. He has
a nicely kept farm.
At Arrow Rock j. p. Biggs the
genial young banker, Will Hickman,
one Of the enterprising merchants
and X. e. Stone, the tonsorial ar
fist had us add their names to our
list.
On the return trip F. o. Shepard
gave us a smile producer.
We stated last week that we had
hut few subscribers at Arrow Rock
An Investigation of the cause show
ed us that while this is true We yet
have many there, as nearly all the
farmers about there take the paper
but get it on the rural routes from
other towns that reach to the very
doors>of Arrow Rock.
