UTAH DEMOCRATS
EULOGIZE WILSON

uoupI Ho VIII pe u titu"P-siJ
THOMAS II. FITZGERALD: ] con-
slider Woodrow Wilson one of the
great modern Democrats. Not Of tho
caliber Of Jefferson and jackson in
his entirety. but under modern meth
DDS and under existing circumstances
l believe that he is the logical candi,
date. The unwarranted attacks made
upon Speaker Champ Clark, one Of
the greatest living Democrats by
Mr.. Bryan was an insult to the Dem
IN attendance. For eighteen years
Mr.. Clark has been a champion OF
the Democratic cause, has been the
instigator Of harmony in the party;
has always been loyal TO the party
and the people Of the nation. l con-
slider that in this convention Mr..
Clark has been insulted by a man
for personal ambitions and not for
party good.
JOHN HOLLY: 1 think that the nomi-
nation Of Wilson is one Of the best
that could have been made. / GER
tainly think that he will be elected,
| see no chance for him to lose.
g. H. CARLQUIST: The namlnation of
Wilson has made the organization OF
third party unnecessary, because
i've can find In Wilson, all that this
remarkable movement in American
politics stands for. During his term
as governor Of New Jersey he has
demonstrated that his heart is with
the people of the country. His nom
ination is the result Of a nationwide
sentiment
JUDGE 8. r. THURMAN: The princi-
pal thing that the nomination Of Will
son means Is the rule OF the people.
Whatever may have been the details
of the fight at Baltimore, that was
the one single issue.
Z. NEBEKER, former nation
al committeeman from Utah: I think
that the Baltimore convention has
selected the strongest possible man
in the party for its presidential nom
inee.
A. J. WEBER: 1t is a victory for
Wilson, greter victory for Bryan,
but above all it Is a victory for the
people of this country. The people
must rule.
THOMAS: L am sat
fled. The convention has done the
right thing In naming Wilson. 7 be-
lieve that at the coming election the
people Of Utah will be true to them
selves and will register their votes
for the rights Of the people.
H. ROBERTS: I take it
that this is to be n campaign IN
which an appeal will be made to the
reason Of men. If there has been q
struggle at the Baltimore convention
it has been to find out whether or
not the man nominated should have
the dollar mark on him. The man
who was nominated today, if elected,
will be answerable to the people and
. not to Wall street.
M. E. WILSON, Republican: 1 will
support Woodrow Wilson in this
campaign. l am In this fight for the
people of this country and the peo-
pie Of Utah. I am with Woodrow
Wilson body and soul in this fight
in Utah.
JESSE KNIGHT, of Provo: It suits
me first class. / wish You would
correct the statement that I, with
Whitecotton, sent a telegram to Roy
lance at Baltimore. I never sent or
signed such a telegram and / never
saw or heard Of it until 7 saw it in
the paper this morning. The tele-
gram. as reported, is against my
views of Bryan. I don't even know
what marplot means, but it sounds
bad and ] admire Bryan, instead of
believing him to be bad.
j. w. N. WH1TEcoTToN:. T haven t
any kick coming. L was par
tial to Clark, but if Bryan will keep
his nose out. we will come out
all right. Taking into consideration
the muddle that Bryan got the con-
vention in. I think probably that
Wilson 8 nomination was the best
that could happen,
e. L. JONES: 1t suits me perfectly.
L have been for Wilson all the time
JULIUS ANDERSON, secretary of the
Democratic precinct committee: Viii
son is my choice. L am elated.
