ABOUT THE SOLONS. Who Thoy Aro, Where They Oomo From, What They Do. Wesley K. Walton is the oldest member mem-ber in point of servico in tho Senntc, and porhnps the most widely known. Mr. Walton is an old resident of Utah, having como hero ovor n third of a century cen-tury ago. Ho is credited as the Senator from Rich county, but is a resident resi-dent of Salt Lnko a good portion of tho time. Mr. Walton is a native of! Maine, but finished his education in tho University of Vermont. 8euator Walton is descended from a patriotic and judicial ancestry. His father was a contemporary of Lincoln, and resigned re-signed his seat in Congress to accept ac-cept a United States judgeship, a position po-sition which ho held for thirty-ono years. He died only a few years ago. Mr. Walton was honored with a greater number of chairmanships of committocs than any other Senator. He was made chairman of the Committee on Public Health. There is, perhaps, no man in tho State who is more insistent upon a strict observance of the rules of health, coupled with proper athletic training, than is Mr. Walton. With him health is everything and of first consideration. If this committee accomplishes ac-complishes nothing in the lino of bettor sanitary conditions than now prevail throughout the State, it will not bo the cTinirman's fault. Mr. Walton is chairman of the Public Lands committee. commit-tee. There, is no man in the State more familiar with its public lands than he. His experience in public land matters dates back for a period of fully thirty years; besides, ho was a member of the State Land Board for nt least four years. He is also made chairman of the Committee on Fish and Game, and right here is whore Mr. Walton shines pre-eminently. With his gun ho has killed everything, from a gopher to a grizzly bear. And as a fisherman, in the catching of the speckled beauties, the old original Isaac Walton wasn't in it with Wesley. It is safe to assume that the flafi and game in tho State will have a staunch friend in tho chairman of the committee commit-tee whose duties it is to devise wa-s and means for their effective preservation. But Senator Walton 's committco duties do not stop hcre.i The President, in addition to abovo chairmanships, appointed him a member mem-ber on the Appropriations and Claims committee, on the Judiciary, Agriculture, Agricul-ture, Banks and Banking, and ended by making him a member of tho Committee on Expenses. By this it may be. inferred that President Love was determined that at least one member mem-ber of the Senate should earn his salaiy. Frederick Rasband is the hold-over Senator from Summit county, and for tho last twenty years a resident of Park City. Senator Rasband is a native Utahn, having beon born in Provo in 1S5S.

Ho removed from Wasatch county twenty years ago to Park City, where ho has resided ever since. Senator Rasband is in the mercantile mer-cantile business. During his lifetime he has engaged in various avocations, including mining. In mining matters, in practical mining and the Tike ho is. perhaps, the best informed member of tho Senate. His knowledge of mining mi-ning secured for him tho chairmanship chairman-ship of the Committee on Mines and Mining, a position he is well qualified to fill. Senator Rasband is a shrewd, upright business man of strict integrity and a hard worker. He stands nigh in the esteem of his fellow citizens of Park City, who have elected him a member of the City Council for four successive terms. Senator Hulaniski of Weber is earning earn-ing his first salary as a State Senator in Utah. He is a resident of Ogden, and claims considerable on that ac-count. ac-count.
