UNDER THE LASH
Last Thursday afternoon Prof GEO
H BKUIUALL and Dr M H HAKDY
I made THE DISPATCH editorial rooms a
visit for what purpose was not stated
and the conversation for nearly two
hours was in a most friendly manner
devoted to the merits of the two nation
al parties the two gentlemen mention
ed championing the cause of
Republicanism and City Assessor
T M SAMUELSON who happened to
e present and the editor of THE DIS
PATCH advocating the saving princi
I ples of Democracy The attention of
I MR BHUIIIALL in the course of this
conversation was directed to the fact
that some individuals were using as an
argument against Mn E A WILSOXS
qualifications as County Superinten
dent of Schools the fact that be was a
lawyer Mil BiiiiiuALL was then asked
i this in his judgment wasany barrier
To this he replied very unreservedly in
urn negative netting tint he would
rather think it ail acquisition He
then made use of the following lang
uage I say unqualifiedly there is
no other man in the county who i as
I qualified to fill the position of county
juperinteudent of schools as E A
WILSON
On Friday morning we published
this statement and as was naturally
expected the party lash was brought to
hear upon Prof BUIMIULL for this
candid and frank endorsement of his
friend and he wrote out the following
which 1t appeared in the Enquirer of k 1
UbU st
NOTICE I
I unqualifiedly
DISPATCH hnr
authori say that again the I
ITO s used my name without
y and not only misquoted but 1
represented me in its issue of July i
24 and as a Republican I shall support I
the nomination of B Chill Jr as the
best qualified man to fill the office of
County Superintendent of Schools for
Utah County G I BRIMIIALL
Before the editor of TIE DISPATCH
saw retraction of Mr BRIMHALLS
that gentleman again accompanied by
Dr HARDY once more crossed the
threshhold of our sanctum and engaged
in conversation It took considerable
time for Mr BRIMILALL to get to the
object of his visit but he finally did af I
ter his mission had Ven anticipated
Wo asked l Bum VL if the En I
quirer had not bee p ting after him
for making the stateuif t and he ac
knowledged that In i3 and that he
had been compelled L I ma e a reply
He was then asked > A Le nature
of the reply he had made li i informed
us that he had accused 11 = of misquot
ing his language Ti > < large we
denied and informe < I him that if
that was the language in which his
reply would b framed that we I
would be under the unpleasant necessi
ty of again stating that the endorse
ment we published Was the very lan
guage Mr BitiiiHALi used Mr Bum
HALL replied that in the event of our
doing so he would have t again deny
it We assured him that we would do
so and s do in this connection
However much 11 BUIMHALL may re
grfct ever having had the courage to say
what he did in favor of Mr E A WIL
SON yet the fact nevertheless stands
that he has done so and
we regret he has not strength
sufficient in his vertebrae to stay with
his words We herewith give the affi
davit of Mr T 1 SAMUKLSOX in re
gard t the matter as that gentleman
was present and heard the whole con
versation taking part in the discussion
himself
Mr Geo H Brimhall having seen
lit t deny in the Enquirer a statement
made in THE DISPATCH Friday morn
ing wherein was reported that gentle
mans opinion regarding the fitnes of
the present incumbent of county super
intendent of schools I will state that
I was present on Thursday evening at
the editorial rooms of THE DISPATCH
when Mr Brimhall in company with
Dr M I Hardy came in Our con
versation drifted upon the merits of
the two national parties Mr Brim
hal was finally asked whether in his
opinion the fact that a man was a
lawyer would disqualify him from hold
ing the position of county superinten
dent of schools Mr Brimhall replied
that in his opinion that would be quite
an acquigiou than otherwise He then
stated unreservedly and emphatically
that in his opinion Mr E A Wilson
was better qualified to hold the position
of county superintendent of schools
than any other man be knew of using
the words t give it more emphasis I
say this unqualifiedly And Mr
Brimhall placed no restriction upon
his remarks so far as the publication of
the same was concerned
THEO 1 SAMUELSON
TERRITORY OF UTAH
COUNTY OF UTAH J s <
On this 25th day of July 1891 per
sonally appeared before me E A
Wedgwood a notary public in and
for Utah county T AI Samuelson
who being by me first duly sworn
upon his oath says that the facts con
tained in the foregoing statement are
true E A WEDGWOOD
i L s Notary Public
COMPARE THE FOUR
Consider the four candidates for the
Legislature from Utah county and
compare their standing and ability
with those of any other ticket and you
cannot but conclude they are the men
for the place and that with those four
In our Legislative halls Utah county
will be well represented A lawyer a
doctor a merchant and a farmer
No one can dispute that Mr KING is
the most popular man in Utah county
for the Legislature He is in the van
of his profession and will be a ready
able and willing legislator But that
body should not be made en
tirely or considerably of law
yers I is highly appropriate
there should be some of that profes
sion but it is known that too many
lawyers are almost a curse to legisla
tion I is generally conceded that
Congress has too many lawyers and not
enough men from the more practical
walks of life The Democrats have
nominated a doctor for a place in the
Legislature They havent gone down
the line either t choose their man but
have plucked him from the very head
Who is better fitted for that place than
W H PIE 1 Xo one has been in more
homes of the people than he
and few know their wants bet
ter Upon questions of quaran
tine and icgarding the asylum the
chief public institution of the territory
tory Dr PIKE is better posted than any
other man within our borders His
previous training for years and the
fact thathe has traveled a great deal
added to his all around qualifications
makes him the fittest man in this
county for the House of Representa
tives
Mr IRVINE of Payson is specially
fitted too by his training and occupa
tion A railroad man for many years
but now in business and acquainted
with several walks of life he fills a
necessary place in t e Legislature
Now comes the representative of the
chief occupation of our countythe
farmer Mr CUNNINGHAM knows as
much of irrigation of the wants
and necessities of that class as anyone
among us He is a typical farmer but
CncIx Tuslke has been called from
his plow to rule a thriving city As a
member of the city council as a school
trustee as a farmer and now as a may
or he has been most successful We
agree with the Enquirer that there is
no comparison between him and his
comparson <
contestant in the same city Mr Cun
ningham will get two votes t the I
young mans one in their own t WI
ther being that much differenjjiv i j
their popularity I it had l lainjiiir
ured out before hand there could not
have been found four such representa
tive men in the county of such diversi
fied talent and ability
The people will approve the Demo
cratic ticket with their votes on the
third of August most emphatically

ANOTHER FOOL IK1r
=
In these days J
freshing
Ol progress it is re
hay
R j see a relic of the past W <
o a daisy specimen of the dark agei
in the form of a man we suppose who I
edits a patent inside and almost out
side sheet at Ogden The name of
this paper is the Commercial and here
is a specimen of the chunks of wisdom
it is indulging in lately
I Mormons are sincere now they
have forever as a church forsaken pol
ygamy I they are sincere they have I
forever abandoned the claim that the I
Mormon church should meddle in politics II
tics And i they have done these
thingsand are resolved to be loyal to the I
Republic and true to morality there
is no reason whatever why they I
may not join the Liberal party
And i he Mormons care to prove I
that they are sincere if they really
mean it when they say polygamj is i
dead and that church and state treason i
is abandoned there i no way they can
do it so well as to plant themselves on
the Liberal platform I they are hon
est in their late profession why cant
they come right out in black and white
in the light of day and say so
We understand that the Commercial
is doing more to reduce the ranks of the
Liberal party by such effusions of ot
as the foregoing than any effort the
other papers of the city are making
We trust for the benefit of the peo
ple of Utah and especially Ogden that
this brilliant specimen of journalism
will keep up its twaddle
I yet Verily the fools are not all dead
AS WE LOOK AT IT
After all said and done there is noth
ing very objectionable in the Demo
cratic platform of 1864 I has been
claimed that the Democrats were op
posed to the war on the Southern
Democrats when in fact they were op
posed to the freeing of the slaves the
same as any other class of people of
any other description of politics
brought up and surrounded by the
same circumstances While the man
cipation proclamation was just and
righteous it is a fact that previous to its
declaration President LINCOLN invari I
ably in his conversation referred to
the matter as a war necessity That he
had constitutional authority to free the
slaves was a matter of supreme import
ance to President LINCOLN and we
have no knowledge that he at any time
was in favor of the act only as the ne
cessities of the war made apparent
I is reported that the Americans in
London astonish the court aristocrats
there in their sparkling jewels nnd
aristocratic gowns
Ah mel how we can boast of our
Republican simplicity but after all the
HAMILTON idea of court etiquette is
considered by his heirs as the only
mode of recognition
WM HARRISON of Provo says he is
selling fruit cans and all other articles
of tinware at the same price as he did

t <
a
before MCKINLEY was born Conse
quently the MCKINLEY bill is nonef
fective
Now i we take into consideration
the different reports of dealers we
will become so confused at what the
MCKiNLEY bill does and does
not do that if we con
tinue our meditations insanity in
its worst forms would certainly be the
result But let us look at it from a
practical standpoint as it relates to cut
lery and the same result must apply to
all other vocations Go into any place
on Nassau street New York where cut
lery is held for sale and enquire for a
pocket knife You may be shown one
of German manufacture and the price
will be say two dollars You are a
protectionist E i will presume and you
want a knife of home manufacture be
cause you arc willing to contrib
ute something to home industry
You are shown one the counterpart of
the first and you ask the price Same
as the other 200 You are surprised
and the first thing you think of is that
old protectionist fable that protection
makes goods cheaper and wanes higher
Then you say I thought the domestic
manufacturer were going to send to
grass foreign competition after the
passage of the McKiNLEY bill You
will be informed the that the bill has
made no difference in the business only
as the purchasing price The McKiN
LEY bill increases Le cost of foreign cut
lery from 10 to 40 per cent and to sup
pose that our sellers are not going
to take advantage of the per cent and
make the purchasing price that much
more would be to suppose that our
dealers are dying to do something for
the laboring classes of America Then
we have not heard that any more bands
have been employed in American
manufactories and that better wages
are being paid on account of the MC
KINLEY tariff but the reverse has been
whenever 1 chance has been male YET I
WEAK AND WAVERING
PitOF BRUIHALL came out last even
ing with a second denial of the quota
tion THE DISPATCH made from his re
marks in our oflic e and of the affidavit
of MH SAJIUELSON made in support of
THE DISPATCH lie now says that what
he did say was there was no other
man in the Democratic Party better able
to fill the office of county superinten
dent than nE A WILSON But he
makes a sorry out in trying t break
I
down the strength there is against himI
The words we quoted were used by the
gentleman just as we have said and
just as Mr SAMUELSON has said under
oath and we hearty regret that l
l has not the moral strength to stand
by them We are willing to leave it I
with the people to judge the truth
We find now that Mr BIIOIHALL has
expressed the same opinion to others
that he gave vent to in our office
Dozens have heard him say in the last
month that the office of county super
intendent should not be brought into
party politics and that he was in favor
of the present incumbent He has also
asserted that he intended to write up
that idea but now we find him going
back on all this and subjecting his
better convictions to party feeling
or the party lash 11 B becomes

lie would not go back on his record as
his friend has done in this case We

and nothing more against I Emu

ing
SIMPLE STDLTIFCATION
The Enquirer can crowd more mis
statements into half a column than an
other paper I ever read or heard of
said a gentleman on the streets last
evening This expression was called
forth by reading the editorial squibs
some of which are appended
Numbers of Democrats have an
nounced ther intention of voting for
SUTHERLAND rather than for PIKE
The almost universal opinion is
that the Republican ticket is a far
superior ct one to the Democratic tick
loon PAUL made a dismal failure
of his attempted answer to Mr HCRR
Several more conversions to the Repub
lican party was the result of course
And such like rot Now the Enquirer
blinded as it is by partisan prejudice
does not believe it own assertions and
certainly nobody else does We dare
say it cannot mention one Democrat
who has said he would vole for GEO
SUTHERLAND
The Enquirers idea of universal
must be pretty narrow Next Tuesday
that paper will come out with some
flimsy excuse for the sorry defeat of
the Republicans in this county and
will then say though it was mistaken
this time at the next election it will
be alright
I is all right to give courage to your
party but when a paper makes such
statements as those above quoted it
amounts to stultification unless the man
who writes them has ro consequence
OH YES SHOULD HE BE
The Enquirer attack the Herald cor
respondent of this city for saying that
the Republican candidate for county
superintendent of schools is not a regis
tered voter and will not be in it I
says Should he be elected he will be
on hand to take the oath In the first
place that should he be is very well put
in for he will not receive the highest
number of votes But suppose ho
should will he take the oath of
office We refer the Enquirer and
the legal gentleman who is on its ticket
to the school law which requires the
county superintendent to be a register
ed voter in the county We suggest that
our friends read a little law before go
ing 1 to the Legislature We appre
hend that as soon as our Republican
friends get posted they will find some
excuse for dropping Prof CLUFPS name
from their ticket and substituting some
eligible man

The City Council met last night in
adjourned session Mayor Booth was
in the chair
A petition was presented from the P
L I < fc B Co in which they relin
quished the light to tile mill race run
ning from their works across the rail
road tracks south
Mayor Booth stated in connection
conneclon
with this that Supt Taylor of the P

about this ditch and stated that they
proposed tilling it up On learning that
i was doing the lower part of town
some good by draining the Mayor had
told Mr Taylor to send in his petition
relinquishing the right to it The mat
ter was referred to the committee on
judiciary
A petition was presented by the
watermaster asking that the irrigation
laws be amended in order that persons
flooding the streets while irrigating
could be made liable to liw He also
asked that legislation be made causing
people owning artesian wells who have
heretofore allowed the surplus water to
become a nuisance t convey the How
of water to the ditch with fall enough
to run it off and that those sweepinc
rubbish into the ditch be also made
liable He also requested that water
taxes be made a len on property in
stead of on the person
The city watermister submitted the
following report
To the City Council of Provo City
GENTLEMEN I herewith report to
you 1st That Provo City is expending
several hundred dollars each year in
constructing dams in the Provo river to
obtain water for the respective mill
races and irrigation ditches j that much
of the water during the low water sea
sons is lost running it down the river
bed that all the water for the mill
races and irrigation ditches can be
brought through City creek by enlarg
ing and repairing said creek Therefore
I would recommend that the water
master be authorized and instructed
under the direction of the committee on
irrigation to enlarge and repair said
City creek and extend the same to a
suitable point at the mouth of Provo
canyon and construct a head gate and
dam and also to construct a waste gate
at the head of the city race and locate a
ditch from some point on said city race
to Tanners race
2nd There is about twelve persons
taking water out of City creek who are
not under any regulations and much
of the water is being applied on land
that has lately been brought under cul
tivation and a great deal of water is
being wasted by running it over the
river bottom gravel bed and the said
City creek is continuously being ob
structed with brush and rock dams
which causes the water to overflow and
do damage besides causing the water
master a great deal of trouble and the
flow of water to be very irregular
Therefore I would recommend that your
committee on irrigation be authorized
to asertain what amount of water each
person taking water from said creek is
entitled to during low water seasons
and to enter into an agreement with
said parties as to the amount of water
lime and using it and manner of tak
ing it from the said City creek

Chairman
I
Mr Maiben thought such a recom

bidding should be opened again i
Mr Liddiard considered that it was
right to give the contract to the next
lowest bidder
Mr Henrichsen wanted it understood
that whether the matter in regard to
ad food had come up or not he was in
favor of rescinding the contract and
awarding it to a citizen of the United
States
The question on the adoption of the
report was put and carried

Be it resolved by the City Council of
Provo City That for the present year
1891 the supervisor of streets for Prove
City is hereby authorized to receipt at
the rate of 20 cents per hour foi a man
and 40 cents an hour for man and team
for work done on the streets in pay
ment of city taxes assessed for opening
and keeping in repair the streets of
Provo City Provided That this resolu
tion shall not be in force after Decem
ber 15th without special older of the
Council
Mr Mailmen moved to strike out the
word December and insert November
Mr Glazier thought there was too
much work to be done by November
and would oppose the amendment
Mr Liddiard was in favor of the
amendment as the weather was too
cold in December and more work
would be done if the weather was not
coldThe
The question on the amendment
was put and carried
The resolution as amended then
passed and was so recorded
The Mayor stated he had been un
able to see any of the railroad officials
in reference to the granting of a fran
chise to the Rio Grande Western of
certain grants on First street
Mr Dunn reported a place on Fifth
street between F and G which had
been intended for a ditch and which
was a veritable cess pool lie fsked
lL
i I r F
that something be done Aitli i and
moved that the supervisor be in
structed to fix the place
Mr Glazier said that as the water
master had made the cess pool he
moved an amendment by inserting
the word watermaster instead of
supervisor
Some squabbling took place on the
amendment but the original motion
prevailed moton
Mr Maibeu moved that the super
visor be instructed to clear the cobble
rock off J street as that thoroughfare
was in a hoirible condition People
would go a block out of the way in
preference to traveling on it He also
recommended Jie sprinkling of J strtet
toward the depot
The question was put and the motion
prevailed
Mr L ddiard spoke of the dimension
stones which had been placed on the
streets to determine the grade In
many places they were uncovered ant
through wagons passing onr them
hey i were being < hi oken up 11 e moved
that the supervisor be instructed to
cover them with gravel The motion
prevailed

Mr Henrichsen spoke of the condi

thing should be done with it Referred
to supervisor

notime place question or understand

Scandinavians There Nearly All
Democrats
They Are Visited by Leading Mon From
Provo Who Give Them Some
Good Talk
A Democratic Scandinavian rally was
held at Spanish Eork on Saturday
night at which Messrs Theo 1 Sam
nelson O I Berg and H I Berg
were the speakers The schoolhoiise
was crowded with people who were by
birth Scandinavians but who frO
choice had become American citizens
They were all anxious to hear the doc
trines of Democracy expounded to
them in their native tongue
Theo 1 Samnelson traced tOOt I
and aim ot the two loci n
namely the Liberal anti ii r11Ie
party and said Limo u Peoples
natural out iesent move uuas a
dlti 0wth of the changed con
JIB in the territory Aiany rcsiiw
able citizens had of late come here
Mn other states who were either
DSDucfatFor Republicans but vho did
not desire to join either of the old local
parties here And as the practice of
polygamy was abandoned and the
Peoples party had dissolved it was pos I
sible for all classes to join on national
lines of politics and hence it became
lnes duty to investigate and study the
platforms and aims of both
platorms The speaker had long
been convinced that the principles
of Democracy meant the greatest good
to the greatest number The cause of
free government was progressing allover
over the world and we ought not to
retiogradp but press forward to more
freedom and selfgovernment
0 H Berg said he had just returned
from a two and a half years trip to
Europe lie had seen the effect of the
centralization of power and had wit
nessed the peoples struggle to regain
their lost liberties The Democratic
and Republican parties existed also in i
Scandinavia only under different I
names The Demociatic party
there was composed of the smaller
landowners tradesmen and the
working classes in general
while the Republican party was com
posed of royalty the officeholders in
cluding the clergy and the rich land
owners While he did not claim to be
a politician he was certainly a Demo
crat and should use his influence for
the advancement of this cause Ap
plause
I H Berg said that in his trade us
a locksmith he had seen the effect of
protection versus free trade In Nor
way some twenty years ago a good
workman could make a lock in a day
which would cost from two to three
dollars and but very few pcoplejn those
days could afford a lock for
th il door the duties on locks
was removed by the government and
locks were imported from Germany
which sold for onpfonrth Now what
was the consequence Did all the
Norwegian locksmiths close up shop
and go out of the business Not much
Some enterprising journeymen went to
Germany all investigated their method
of working and their machinery and
when they came back they could make
four locks a days instead of one Com
petition had stimulated their enter
prise and given the industry an impe
tus which I might not have had for
years under the protective system
A unanimous vote of thanks was
given to the speakers with the request
that they would repeat the visit mit an
early date
The chairman Mr W 0 Creer
said that the Scandinavians were an in
dustrious reliable class of citizens I
was he was happy to say his convic

SECOND ATTEMPT
To Assassinate the President
of France
This Time the Perpetrators Adopt the
Infernal Machine as the Instrument of
Death But With Unsuccessful Sesu ts
PARIS July 25It became known co
day that an attempt has been made to
assassinate Mmo Carnot the wife of
the President of the French republic
She received a package from Tuition
which contained what appeared to be a
Roman Catholic mass book Upon ex
amination of this present time leaves
apparently were stuck together with
vainish or mucilage This caused a
still more careful examination to be
made and it was found that the inte
rior of the book had been cut away af
ter a manner sometimes adopted by
smugglers and the book tilled with a
powerful fulminate powder Xo flue
according to the police hag been foun1
as to who sent her tlio infernal machine
although the postothce and police an
thorities of Toulon are said to be on
the track of theperpetratora of the out
age i
rageNo
2so reasons are known of this
attempt upon the life of Mine
Carnot and the conclusion ar
rixed m at is that the wouldbe assassin
really intended to take the life if the
President and supposed a package to
Mine Cat not woulu be earlessly opened
by the President v hilt a i aekage ad
dressed to thin hiuibeif might be care
fully opened by the attendait of couise
Tlrs is tie only thing
The report or the Attempted assatii
nation is the talk of Paris and huts
caused consitteruble djgnation Some
people lliinK this alleged attempt
upon the Presidents life with tue re
cent defeat of the French government
in the Chamber of Deputies with the
Boulangist agitators with Alsget her
nine passport regulations debate and
other bimilhir matters but it would
not be anri > rlsng if the whole matter
turned out to be the work of u danger
ous lunatic
PARIS July 5Thmo report which
prevailed In this city today to the ef
fect that an attempt had been made to
assassinate Mme Carnot the wife of
the president by means of an infernal
machine was utterly incorrect in that
the attempt was not made on the life
of Mme Carnot but on the wife of M
Constans Minister of time Interior The
analysis of the powder which vas
found in the hollowed part of the book
received by Mme Constans proves it
is fulminate of mercury a highly ex
plosive compound
