County, judiciul and senatorial conventions have already been held in the larger counties, und the nominations made have been such as to clarify the general situation. The tickets so far nominated are apparently satisfactory to the rank and fue of the parties and contain the names of candidates who stand well in their respective com munitics. The Republicans arc as confident of victory as usual, but realize that they have a fight on their hands. The Democrats are more cocky than usual, and seem to think they have ft chance to win the head of their ticket in the nation and a part of their state ticket at least. As the campaign progresses, it will get warmer and warmer until election the day. Just now the Democrats are Remost active here in Utah, but the publicans are rapidly getting into stride. Senator Smoot is here from Washington and is assisting in directing the campaign. On Tuesday night he spoke over KSL; and his admirers think he made a very fine speech, one which will convince Utahns of the im ortance of keeping the state in the Republican column. Senator William II. King, Demo cratic candidate to succeed himself in the United States senate, is making and aggressive campaign and is satisfied with the progress e is making. Now that the county conventions are over in Salt Lake and Weber counties, the Republicans are rapidly lining up behind their state ticket; and all factions within the party are getting together. As the days go by there is less talk of the strength of or weakness of candidates, a fact which augurs good for the Republicans. Bamberger, for United States senator, and Wattis for Governor, on the Republican ticket, are going stronger each day, and most of the party discord has disappeared. Governor Dern seems satisfied with his campaign thus far the Democrats think he is more than holding his own, but most Republicans think he is already slipping. ap-aren- tly MASTER MINDS- - DON'T GRASP SMALL THINGS Endeavoring to say something and same time say nothing, concerning the political campaign, Sunset, an interesting literary and boost magazine published in San Francisco, says: "After all, the two party or ganizations are not much more than barely distinguishable, one from the other, in all essentials." All of which demonstrates that business and political sense are not required to successfully conduct a magazine, provided it be properly subsidized. It u indeed remarkable that men have reached prominence who can "barely distinguish" a difference be tween political issues as presented by Lincoln and Douglass, Blaine and Tif-den, McKinley and Bryan, and finally Hoover and Smith. Men who draw such deductions are usually so opinionated and conceited that even the great issues of the day do not break in on their minds. The people of this country seem to be able to distinguish what it is all about, and know the gladiators out in the ring by their first names, but there at the fe, indeed, even cisco, who know the are editor of Sunset. in San Fran- name of the OF A ONE-QUARTE- R 8 CENTURY, The slow days back in 1853, even the quickened pace at the turn of the 1903-192- next century, foreshadowed but obscurely the terrific sweep of events that began in 1903, the year in which the Tarsons Taper company was already celebrating its fiftieth birthday. The automobile suddenly multiplied our facilities for movement, and today, adding vertical to horizontal transport, the aeroplane offers to take man. off the shackles of earth-boun- d How much we owe to the invention of the gas engine. The Panama canal, the modern ocean liner, the moving picture, the radio, the introduction of all modern conveniences into the home and office what a great stream of discovery, invention, refinement, mechanical application and engineering have the past twenty-fiv- e years witnessed. And the tragedy that stalked across the peaceful path of progress in 1914 what did it mean? Pain, yes; distress, defeat, despair, death; so little of victory for any nation, so much of sorrow for all. Yet we must find a residue of good in everything, and though we may not think the world is better spiritually as a result of this modern holocaust, it may still be insisted that the war gave prodigious schooling to scientists; that chemists, surgeons, psychiatrists, engineers made ns much progress in the four war years as they have made in forty years in the might quiet of the peace-tim- e laboratory. As this brief story of a quarter of a century nears its conclusion, e find the world growing smaller, communication swifter, continents nearer; man moves by land, by water, by air. Leisure increases in America, and after a few years more of hardship in Europe, people there, we hope, will have more leisure, too. The average man will then be bolter off than he ever was before. In America, a new industrial empire rises in the South; the virile West grows stronger and richer every year; the East has become the financial renter of the world. If ever in the history of nations there was a land to be called blest, that land is here today, and it name is Aim ricn Wh Utah Should Have Two Republican Senators Address Delivered by Ernest Bamberger Wednesday Night, September Can-dia27, Over the Itadio From Station KSL, in Which the Republican for United States Senator Tells of Utahs Need for a Protective Tariff and Why Utah Should Have Two Republican Senators, Working Together, at Washington; Quotes Senator Kings Record te who stated that "it Fellow Citizens: , of this country of the nation more the farmers 'gave In the short time allotted me tothan dtal any Tariff Leggquare night I must of necessity restrict my- islation enacted during the present self to a very siiort discussion of the gem ration; and that it was the first issues of the campaign.

The present condition of the farmer entitles him to the assistance of the While it is probably Government. true that no suggested solution can insure success, much legislation is experimental and very seldom can results be accurately predetermined, but often out of the experiment comes the solution.
