Geo[rge]. Q. Cannon telegraphed: 'Should not Saturday's Deseret News & Salt Lake Herald publish John T. Caine's return as an example to all voters? Maud & Tobias telegraph they go to Salt Lake City next week. Ask earliest day I can meet them. They say Hyde & Richard Taylor are determined to make trouble & my presence would help matter greatly. What shall I answer them?' Answer: 'Leave you return here to your judgment. If you decide to do so it will be entirely agreeable to Pres[ident] [Wilford] Woodruff. James Jack.' Pres[iden]ts Woodruff & [Joseph F.] Smith witnessed the parade of the People's Party.
