The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1919-10-18
BISHOP ENGLAND AGAIN

In the Wednesday, October 10Th issue
of his paper, The Journal, Bishop Charles
England has the following to say:
1--WE are inclined to agree with the
Republican wherein it states that at
the johnson meeting held in the
Salt Lake tabernacle last Saturday
evening, Bishop Charles w. Nibley
threw bomb into the camp Of his
hearers by declaring that the league
Of nations is so dangerous that he is
entirely opposed to it. In doing so he
threw bomb, also, into the midst Of
the general conference, held such a
short time since, and which so I'M
qualifiedly approved it; and another
into the midst of the great peace con-
ference at which the Covenant for
the league to insure enduring and
world wide peace was formulated by
some of the master minds of the age,
spurred to their best efforts by the
worldwide desire, and with the
dread inspiring lessons of the world
war before them to still further urge
them If that were needed. At TIA
same meeting Senator Johnson also
threw some bombs; and in their sel
eral WAYS. according to their respec-
tive abilities, the Salt Lake Herald,
Ogden Examiner and Logan Repub-
lican are throwing bombs, hand gren-
AIDES on buds. Senator Smoot has
taken a turn at it. In fact, all of the
bomb throwing tribe. following their
natural bent, seem to have Joined the
/. w. w. in the congenial sport of tax
ing a shot at the league of nations
and laying foundation upon which
future historians will align them
with the Copperheads of the Civil
war"
The above is apparently from the same
pen, and published in the same column, as
was the article in the Journals issue of
October 31st last, which said:
What reasonable, conservative
Republican; what loyal American cit
izen can follow the leadership Of the
self assertive, bombastic, rabid rem
egade and traitor, Theodore Roose-
welt.
''The Saviour of mankind had his
Judas Iscariot; the Father of his
Country his Benedict Arnold; Abra-
ham Lincoln his Wilkes Booth; Gar
field his Guiteau; and President Will
son his Roosevelt; all alike and filled
atical hatred" ~. !.
Both articles are on the same plan, and
to the discredit of Bishop England are
written by hand that has no conception
of honor, fair dealing, and even dilated
Americanism. They were written by a
hand that swallows as delicious morScl
such words as "There is very little differ
ence between a conscript and convic,
which words We're uttered by fora.er
Speaker Champ Clark on the floor of the
House, of representatives and yet that
same hand is utterly void of the Ordinary

tesies that exist among opponents where
