th away there seems little chance of an r change in the lineup of candid ates ales it wis was truly loel im b the country districts that would reconsider his fillad ed cd niah drapal from the gubernatorial race and enter the lists as an independent candidate cand before the republican convention ven tion but that hope has vanished and the federal bunch will have its wiy way at the con contention bention there is a little stirring to put james Christian ben into the saddle as state chairman chair it wont amount to anything as it requires a man in that position Dosi tion who will play machine poli politics to the limit and a man hah to have more experience in the game of politics than the state treasurer possesses however holever he has many man friends here who ho mould like to hae him get the place but the machine will have hane to be consulted and it will see to it that only a machine min man will get to the chairmanship in county politics there is a lull in the announcement of candi candidacies candidi dacies cies the NN f role ole gamut has b en run and it is little use to e expend any further energy that is out in the open that there are fences being erected and wires being laid no one doubts for a in moment T tn I 1 cited rond pond nt of thi call it ests is s thit that his announcement of the candid candidad candi dac ca of martin jensen should sufficient have been sufficient for the reaper and professes ses to see an effort to side track the present representative knowing oving the call nt as he ha is known no one expects anything but the silly twiddle tiddle lie he indulged in last week leek as to an effort to side track bir air jensen he inadvertently pays the reaper the high compliment thit we e ire are shaping the destinies ot of the next set of officers for this county no such stuff I 1 we have tried to get mr jensen to announce himself as a candidate and could only get burrors as to his attitude the correspondent now avs av that mr jensen declared hii big candid tev to him the correspondent we a word nord to say to against his candidacy an I 1 only wonder onder that the correspondent have the gumption to say that mr jensen had authorized him to announce his candidacy mr jenen is an honest and upright citizen with ideis ideas of his own and his experience epe nence in his first legislative term would be of great service to him in another term if the convention honors him with another nomination he be will hive have a big start over whit what he had for his hia first term things are arc beginning to warm up in the democratic camp it has ap geared that the democrats wore either all dead or in hiding however Hoi Never there is a sign of life in tle bunch of the left in sexier seier during daring the week the name of dan jens n of elsinore has been suggested as available timber for the legislative nomination and he will have the support or of his party I 1 with ith a possible cutting into the opposition dan has the qualifications if he can only get the otes another sign of life among the democrats is the intimation that a fighting chairman one with nil the enthusiasm of L full hedged fledged bryan brian democrat will be chosen to conduct the campaign in this regard oluf of monroe is c Cuni rigi dered about the right man for th the e place I 1 oluf is i worker and if made mad C chairman he will cut some ice in the campaign the socialists arc ar cabout bout as persistent a liili political body as can be found anywhere the members of this pirty party know t there h ere is no earthly show for their nominees in this county yet they go about the matter of placing a full fall ticket in the field with as rm nn h assurance as ab though they ere cre going to win N in they did oni commendable thing at the convention last Satu idy nhan han they nominated dr wet west for ane legislature ahey put up their very ery best timber for that office aside from his I 1 political loli political oli complexion he is eminently qualified for the position continued on eighth page POLITICS AND ASPIRANTS continued from firt first page ho he has the ed education ii cation and experience ept nence which w aich would make him an ideal legislator the don dominant anant party can do no better than emulate this example and give the voters trie ver very y nest best man in the party for this high hig h office judge W al M mccarty was a richfield visitor this week asked if his mission was political he laughed and said 1 I might as well say aes es because the fellows will say eay im lying if I 1 say it politics nothing further than that could be a ascertained cert aired about the judges presence here in the center of sevier county he made a trip to monroe and it is surmised ura that his political fences were thoroughly inspected there is no need for any worry as to judge mccartyy mccartys McC MeC artys support from this county he has all of sevier county at his back and anything he may ask in reason is his for the asking following on the heels of the re pub licin state convention comes the state democratic democrat ic convention on september the democratic committee on monday afternoon and decided on that date for holding the convention and the number of delegates was placed et at based upon one delegate for every 45 votes vote cast for 0 W powers in 1906 this will give sevier county fifteen delegates there were but two towns bidding for the place for bolding the convention salt lake and logan the claims of the latter place v were ere considered most favorable and that town got the convention it is a mistake to put that convention so far from the state center and it will result in a limited attendance of delegates this call for a state convention ought to aromie acome some activity among the sevier county democrats it will be politic to have representatives from this county at the convention but the party has showed such indifference to political a affairs the past year that it ought to get out now or forever after hold its peace |
