f i m Hi 1 12 THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY MORNING-, SEPTEMBER 11, 1908. MZ I SlSfEffl WINS Claims Made That Delegates Are Wl Two to One Against H' Elder Howell. H " FEDERAL BUNCH GIVEN 1 RICHLY-MERITED REBUKE B; Results of Church-Republican H, Primaries in the City H "Elder Joseph Howell will not have Hj ' the walkaway that ho anticipated in the raco for Congress. In act it looks now as if ho would bo in I ho also ran t class. Salt Lakers havo becomo pretty ' tired of tho Federal bunch, pretty tired ' of having tho Pcowcos and Curb's and Kinkys and Fussys trot nut tho candi dates and say: ""'Hero they are. voto i for om." Thero is a last straw tlKu Hl- can always be put upon tho camel s back to break it. This appears 1o bo the situation regarding tho pn- B marios nf tho church Republicans held B' n Thursday night. The result of tho primaries shows that f ISldor Howell, the man whom tho i Federal bunch have foisted upon tho Hi party as tho Congressional candidate, 1 ( has ' been buried and that Parley P. i Christensen will hnve at least two- ( thirds of tho delegates. This is a solar ! plexus blow to the Federal bunch and Kf) tho band ot' twenty-six and id evidence ' of tho revolt that is on in tho State .i against; the tyranny of the band of Hjf twenty-six wh'ich has dominated poli- , tics in Utah for so long. I Ajax's Frlonds Busy, i Friends of Ivor Ajax of Tooele coun- H1 1 tv, who is an aspirant for Auditor o ' Stato, assert that their man has swept '. tho county and that a. majority of the H; , delegation is suro for him. I In the forty-third district. C. S. Pat- l r terson, who is a candidate for Attornoy- B.; General, was indorsed and the delegates B instructed to vote for him. B. Hi the fortv-sccond, there was a hard Rf light made against. A. B Irvine, prosi- j f dent of the Taft club, who has been ono of the insurgent leaders, on the ground that he was an insurgent, B but he was elected by a good majority. 1 Harry Joseph who engineered the Ht fusion "movement last fall and who H swapped candidates on tho "Republican l ticket for Democrats in order to beat B ! 1mc American party would now bar real Bi Republicans from "voting for Taft. In Hflj "ns district, the forty-fourth, ho inlro- Vt( duccd a resolution that every Taft Hf , elector decline to permit his nnmo Bi: Roinff on the American ticket. There B f was a spirited contest over tho resolu- B 'ou but. Jo-soph won out and tho rcsolu- B ' tion was adopted. This was in strict B accord with the orders of tho federal B bunch who are determined to shut out B every Republican vote unless they will vote" for the entire ticket down to con- Bv stable tho ticket they have selected. Hf Control of Bingham. , In Bingham there was a warm con- i test between the crowd known as tho j 1 Bingham Bulletin and the antis. When . (he votes wero counted, tho Bulletin ' crowd had 175 votes against 100 votes "H ' for tho opposition. In the Bingham : district five of tho six delegates are almost certain to cast their votes for , Hurry J. Robinson for nttorncj' gon- Taken in its entirety the result has been a knockout blow for tho federal ( bunch and when tho state convention i meets -on Tuesda3" next this delectable ' ' Rang will be greeted by a great crowd Iji (if delegates who will be ready to give H battle and who will do so against' tho L tyrannical rule which the bunch has so Hjp "nnR wielded.

"Richard Hawkins, a colored man. known about tho dives of Commercial street as "Dick" Hawkins, was shot in tho abdomen with a 3S-calibor re volver and almost instantly killed by anothor colored man namod David Lo gan, Thursday morning, at 5 o'clock, in tho saloon of "Candy Bill" McKcn zio, at 33 Commercial street. After taking a glanco at his victim lying in tho street in his last death 8'irugglc, Logan ran through tho saloon and out the back door into the darkness of Plum alley, and, although the police immediately instituted a search for tho murderer, his whereabouts had not been discovered at an oarly hour Friday morning. H is thought that ho is being kept in hiding by friends. At an autopsy held over tho body of tho dead man at the undertaking rooms of O'Donnell & Co., Thursday night, by County Physician Calder wood and Assistant County Physician F. H. Kuloj-. it was found that the bul let had gone through tho abdomen, cut ting an nrlcry, which caused internal blooding and death in less than a miu uto. Troublo at Club. Troublo between Hawkins and Logan originated in tho Americus club at 43 Commercial street, whero they engaged in an argument as to each other's char acter. Hard mimes were exchanged and pcoplo in the club say that Logan pulled a revolver and threatened to shoot Hawkins, but was stopped by men standing by. Logan. Hawkins and another negro named Ed Johnson, a friend of Hawkins, wbro put out of the club. Logan and Johnson went to "Candy Bill's" saloon a fow doors from tho entrance to tho club, and stood boforo tho bar having a drink, whon Hawkins came into tho front of the saloon. Haw kins stepped to the two swinging doors, which divido tho cigar department and the barroom, opened them and looked in. Seeing Logan thero ho let tho doors swing back and wns ubout to turn and go out of tho -laco, it is said, when Logan, quick as a flash, drew a re volver and fired at tho doors behind which Hawkins was standing. Tho bul let passed directly through the edge of ono door and struck Hawkins. The injured man, with a shont of pain, turned and walked to tho side walk, where he dropped down aud diod almost immediately. Pqlico on Sceno. A squad of police went to tho scene under command of Lieutenant John Horn pel. and Johnson was placed under arrest, but later released on $100 bail. Tho police for two hours Avero unable to discover tho name of tho man who did tho shooting, ns all tho negroes claimed they didn't "know him. A thorough scarch of all dives and lodging houses where it wns thought Logan might possibly bo hiding was made bv tho police, trains wcro gono through and watched, but the man was not cap tured. Coroner Smith viewed tho body of Hawkins and ordered its removal to O'Donnell & Co.'s undertaking rooms. Hawkins was twenty-eight years old, and was said to bo a native of Peoria, 111., whero he had relatives. In response to a telephone call nt 1 o'clock Friday morning, that David Lo gan., the colored man who murdered Richard Hawkins on Commercial street, Thursday morning, was on his way to the liio Grando depot, tho police patrol with a load of policemen was hurried to that vicinity. A search about tho depot and outgoing trains proved fruit less. While going down First South street on tho way to tho station the wagon ran over a dog and killed it. Bemoval Notice.

Attorney Brecdou bases his argument on section 150, city ordiuancos of J003. "These laws and ordinances," said ho Thursday, "should be enforced by tho city officials; and while tho Stato. through its prosecuting officers, have tho right to prosocuto for prostitution, yet it is tho particular duty of tho city and its officials, in accordanco with its own charter, to prosecute, supnross, and closo up resorts of ill-fame and all busi ness operated there. I therefore hold it to bo the duty of the city to put a stop to it. "Tho city ordinances mnko it a mis demeanor lo rent any building or part of a building to bo used as plnces of immorality; and tho law ought to be enforced.

Tn its i6Suo of Thursday morning it said: Tho city council purposely stifled a communication ont to that body by tho Woman's Republican club. Tho club, at Its meeting Tuesday, adopted a form of communication and snt It to tho mayor and city council. This communication, which speaks for Itself, protested against tho Installation of tho red Hf,'ht on the west side, but tho council didn't con sider It. It wns completely burled by tho rlns that controls tho council. Now for tho facts. Tho facts are that tho communication was regularly presented to the council by the recorder and tiled, as wero other similar com munications and protests, as a 'result of tho action taken upon tho red light matter. Tho Sinoot "Mouth" could havo had the communication had it desired it. Its reporter was prcsont when tho motion was presented, but, having overlooked something from its own people, it now attempts to throw the blamo upon the council. The petition from tho "Woman's Re publican club was read and filed, as were the protests of Mary A. Gray ct al., K E. Ashton ot al, Olga Riser et al. and J. P.

The "Little Parson" Reports a Most Delightful Trip Across tho Water. TALKS INTERESTINGLY OF HIS EXPERIENCES Visited Many Points of Interest, but Is Glad to Be in Zion Again. Tho Rev. Tctcr A. Simpliin, pastor of tho Phillips Congregational church, re turned from his European trip, Thurs day, overflowing with good spirits and reminiscences of his summer abroad, whero ho was ono of tho delegates to tho International Conferenco of Con gregational churches, held at Edinburgh, Scotland, from July 1 to 12. To a Tribune representative ho said that there wore 850 delegates present, rep resenting every corner of tho globo, and there wcro always from 1000 to 5000 pcoplo present in Rainero Ilall whero tho conference met, during the session. The theological, socialogical, educa tional, missionary and in fact, the whole ground of church work, was discussed. Ono of tho particular sublets of in terest was that of the new theology, which, in tho estimation of Row Mr. Simpkin, is a deliberate attempt to shako tho domain of faith, and shows too much of a tendency to want dem onstration of the miraculous in tho lifo of Christ, and minimizes tho importanco of tho religious standpoint of our fore fathers. It was tho sentiment of the meeting that the new theology was ultra-liberal in its views. Another mntter prominent in tho council, was tho insistence of tho social propaganda, warmly advocating that tho church adiudicato tho social and industrial problems that lay in its power. The papers and arguments wore magnificent and abovo tho average, and liio body was pronounced in regard to tho prominent reforms of loda-. The pcoplo of Edinburgh wero most hospitable, and somo timo was spent in seeing tho surrounding country, visits being made to Abbot tsford, the birth place of Sir "Walter Scott; to Linlith gow, where Mary Queen of Scots was born: to Loch Kalerino, Loch Lomond, aud Loch Trossarhs. The day after tho council, a trip was taken into tho Burns country, Alloway, Burns 's birth place being the first stop. Alloway is also tho sceno of the story of Tarn O'Shanter. From there, Dumfries, Burns 's burial ground, was visited, tho party continuing on down tho South road to tho Carlisle and lake country. Six Weeks in England. Six weeks was spent in England and Walcst and everything of importance was visited. A ride up tho Thames in motor boats was taken, Windsor was explored, and somo days spent in York, inspecting the cathedrals and cripts. Quaint old Chester was done thoroughly, and several excursions into the Flint country wero made in automobiles, over the beautiful English ronds, as much as possible, being spent in the antique aud picturesque old inns about London. A "most unique experience was had in Lancashire, the pirty being present at the terrific mine explosion at tho Maple pit, in which 75 lives were lost, they tarrying there during the heartrending scenes that followed, lending such as sistance as was possible. From 75 to 100 ministers and priests respond od to tho call for assistance, and during tho organization of tho relief party, clergymen and newspapermen begged for tho opportunity to go down into tho smoke-filled pit, eager to bo They Like Taft The English people are greatly inter ested in tho political" situation in this country, rather favoring Mr. Taft, be lieving that ho will follow in the foot steps of President Roosevelt, whom they greatly admire. Thcv aro particularly interested in tho possibility of tariff re form by congress in the near future. The general idea prevailing there is that, as England, is our best customer, sho should be favored above other na tions in that respect. The slump in America was kecul' felt in England, especially in the cotton market" tho price of cotton being so high that they couhl not afford to buy tho cotton and spin it. Roy. Mr. Simpkin expects a party of Englishmen to visit him next spring, with a viow of making investments in and around Salt Lake. 'Considerable timo was devoted to preaching and locturiug in tho different places visited, and ho had the privilege of preaching in the church where he preached his first sermon at the age of sixteen 3fears. Pleasant weather was enjoyed on the voyago over, but the return was rather rough. Rev. Mr. Simpkin'3 father was not in tho best of health upon his ar rival, but was much improved later, mid expects to como over here in the spriu" This was Mrs. Simpkin 's first trfp abroad, and she enjoyed it immensely. In conclusion, tho-Rev. Mr. Simpkin stated that while the pleasures of i trip abroad were many, thcv wore not to be compared with the ;ovs of home coming and the greetings' of ono's real friends. During tho winter, lie expects to contribute articles to tho newspapers, and to lecture on different phases of English life.
