It will be ike battle ground of a con--test of ballots; and not only will all the people of this fair common wealth wait the result with intense interest, but the eyes of the whole nation will watch the termination of the straggle with deep concern. Utah is a name of histronic im portance throughout the civilised world, aad a change in her situation will be marked by all observers. We as a people are about to secure the birthright of statehood, and by our vote determine the policy of the :new state government. As this -frill be the last issue of the Broad Ax prior to the election, we desire -to briefly sum up the case before submitting it to the decision of the -people. One thins all must feel gratified over, and that is, this campaign has been fought with an absence of personalities. The voters can act freely from. pure, motives, and as to the preference of those to rule over us, can be, and should be decided upon the principles they Tepresent and their qualifications. The principles of the leading par ties are pretty wall understood, and need sot he reiterated here. As to the candidates for the various offices, we claim the Democratic party have given the .people a splendid ticket to "support. John T. Came for Governor is a broad minded, brainy man, of large ex perience m public. aftairs in Utah, and if elected will Bake a model Governor. O&the other hand Jar. Welk may "be a pleasant gentleman, but he a young man without any experience in pnblic matters, aad it would be a dangerous experimeat to entrust the ship of state to an inexperienced pilot. Hoa. B. H. Roberta is so maeh the superior of C. E. Allen, thai a comparison seems odious. .Roberts is hrillnat, gemal and boMtt.te ih -core, whik AHea is dull, haaghty aad heloags to the "ward jwKtkiaa school It as sake no mistake in this mpciat efiee.

Do not blot the fair name of Utah by electing such men as. ths Republican nominees in this district. If the people of Utah desire such typical Americans aa J. Jj. Rawlins and Moses Thatcher tcv go to the U. S. Senate, then to te for all the Democratic candidates lor thelegk- lature. Should the Republicans elect the legislature, the chances are that IkeTrumbo and his barrel would be one of the Senators, and such an accident would cause all good people of the new state to hang their heads, in. shame. done in the city, hobos and strang ers from abroad will be imported to do it The motto of the Demo crats is: "Salt 'Lake workmen for Salt Lake work." Therefore, be sure and vote for the entire Demo cratic city ticket, and thus vote for your own interest and beaefit. Fay no attention to any rumor or circular that may appear on the day of election. Such things are invariably untrue, and are put out simply to deceive voters. If the Democracy and the better class of Republicans will pull together, and vote their honest sentiments, No vember 5th will be a day of victory for honest government and reform.
