MAKING DUPEs OF THEIR BEST FRIENDS.

The best people in the American party being
deceived. They honest and sincere, but they are
being made dupes of by their party leaders. No one
can complain that the better elements in thai party
indorse the wrongs of the party BOSSES They don't
But they have been misled.
They have been told politics in Utah is controlled
by the 'hierarch." That is not true but while the
people have been watching to prevent it, they have
overlooked the greater control actually exercised by
these bosses Of the American party.
Good people have been told that every one except
ing members of the American party traitors: and
while watching for evidences of treason in others.
people have overlooked the rank treason u the gang
that controls the American party.
They have been told that every not following
the lead of the Tribune is dishonest And while
watching against the thefts of Others the good people
have neglected TO observe the open and habtual dis
honesty of the American party controllers in this city
1t is interesting condition. Nothing is i'm
portant than to get the deceived people to open their
eyes Nobody likes 20 be played for sucker And
that is precisely what the bosses of the American par
~ doing to the friends they have in the w5rd
the honest, sincere men and of the American
party, who do right themselves and want every one
else to do

THE WEAKNESS OF sRANsFoRD.

No is claiming that John Bransford is pur-
posely wicked man. He doesn't do wrong for the ma
cious purpose of hurting anyone. solely for the
money he can get out of it, He goes wrong because
his judgment is bad and his resolution is weak The
is dangerous only because those traits linked
with the that he has been placed in position Of
great power and influence make his mistakes so tre-
mendously costly.
And if you talk with John Bransford for a minute
you will get the impression that he is man of much
strength of will He speak in some of the planest
English that has ever aired in the winds of the
mountains He can what King Henry called "a
round, mouth-fllng oath" He talk in as terse
terms as any trouble from Texas. But he goes
away and submits himself to the grueliing of the
inner circIe-and after While he out backward
John changes.
Let him alone or leave him in the conduct Of his
own business, and ne will be all right. He can be
dictator there, and do the things that his judg
ment eommends. But when he comes to public af-
fairs he finds himself surrounded by crowd Of
savage latherng. staggering. threatening, bullying
begging arguing, pleading, reasoning tempting. time
serving, money-loving power-huntng, revenge-in-
1icting, poitcs-studyng, punshment-deserving ego
tistc, hypocritieal maevolent visionary memories of
failure and prophets of evl-and when he escapes
from them he doesn't know straight up for while.
And it in these moments uncertainty and indie
cision that John Bransford falls
All his backbone resolves itself into chye. His
vigor is disspated His profanity gets peevish, and
his policy is lost in tangle of good intentions
other peoples purposes 1t isn't so much his fault
it is that of the pestlferous malevont gang that
trolls him.
And if John Bransford were as good when he is
bad as he bad when ne is good there would be little
to desire in his makeup.

WHERE JEFFERSON WAS WRONG.

In a conversation with Baron Humboldt one time
Thomas Jefferson uttered the following declaration
of principle which had always actuated him. and
which he fondly believed TO lie at the base of official
obligation:
When a assumes public trust he should
consider himself public property.
1t is different with the bosses of the American
party. In solemn conference of their city committee
more than year ago. those patriots for plumber de-
clared:
No elected appointed to public office in the
city of Salt Lake is responsible to the people for the
honest administration of mis- duties.
There is the difference between true lover of his
country friend of freedom and builder of honest
states and the pestent gang Of city bosses who are
held together by nothing on earth but the cohesive
power of public plumber.
We believe the people in general will agree that
Jehersons position the better We believe that
the best men and the best women of the American
party dispute the doctrine their party bosses-the
ntolerable doctrine that the public official is respon-
sibe to the party machine.

MARTIN MuLvEY HASN'T REFORMED.

1t has become the duty of The neutrality-suspicious.
to tell the people what the Salt Lake Tribune thought
of Martin Mulvey before he became a candidate of
the American party. And the publication is the more
interesting from the fact that it is the Martin
Mulvey that it when the Tribune called him
a gambler, panderer to the underworld friend Ct
vice. promoter of prizefghs, and the expression of
all that is bad in the city.
Martin hasn't changed, excepting that he mas
saloons. where he had only when the Tribune
painted his picture for the deectaton of the
He has two Saloons and least twice the facilities
for opening and protecting gambling.
So far Martins drinking habits are concerned,
the only change made is that he drinks better liquor
now. For thing his taste has improved. But
what is more to the point is the fact that he has
made enough money in the life which the Tribune so
accurately showed his choice, that ne can afford
wine where he formerly deuged his stomach and
sweed his girth with beer.
1t isn't Martin Mulvey who has changed. 1t is
the Tribune and its makers who have got down the
level they then declared Martin typifed. Martin isn't
any better His former oppOsers are in the same bed
with him now, because they expect to gain by the
very vicious methods which they then declared him
master of.
Therefore, Martin is acceptable.

A MATER oE PRINCIPLE.

Not long ago the Tribune declared the present cam
paign does not present choice of men, but choice
principles. Recognizing the fact that the nominees
of the American party not the kind of which the
best people may be proud, the Tribune declared that
the problem presented the voter question
of persons, but of principles.
Which is exactly the point. Aside from the fact
that the nominees Of the Republican party are better
qualified for Office than their opponents on the Amer
lean ticket, the further fact be observed: The
principles of the Republican party the principles
which the government of the nation has proceeded
These principles such that all good men may be
proud of them, may sustain them, may advocate
them
The Republican party is not organized to fight any
because Of his religion. And that the keystone
of the arch of principles which actuate the leaders
and most of the followers of what called the Ameri-
party
No party which discriminates against be-
of his religion is worthy to be supported by
American citizens. And that discrimination is the
nfaIlible test of fellowship in the American party.
1t is a principle of which its adherents should be
ashamed.
