that this should not mention politics or landi aites there area fen fea more changes 01 on the political horizon which aie worth orth mentioning and it la is incumbent on this piper to see thit that the said matter gets proper prominence and recognition in state politics the two to things worth orth noticing are the for the of ed loose from the gubernatorial ernat orial race and the introduction introduce on of a new Land candidate for thit that th it position truth the western weekly published at salt lake city devoted nearly a whole page last va neck eck to the reasons assigned for the turning of ed looie according to that paper ed I 1 x wanted anted to be governor of this state and as he has always stood ready with the barrel during the troublesome times of state and national campaigns he was deemed a tit fit subject for this high political position but alas and alack the machine could not endorse him and in this the machine showed undoubted wisdom mr loose has many admirable qualities but his best friend and most ardent admirer would search in vain for the qualifications necessary in the governor of this state here is what the paper gives out as the actual occurrence at the time loose was as turned down one day some of the republican leaders of the state met in senator george Sut herlands office the chicago convention was over and the oiin ona thing ihde nai aeu irm A i be decided in utah was the choice athe tabe republican leaders for governor governors gover norl the party machine was long overdue 0 ardue in reaching its decision but a combination of en ell contributed to this tardiness at that meeting there was a glowing sentiment loo loose looe e tile the salt lake county republicans almost to a man wanted him and if the voice came from this county surely utah county would chime in and there could be no great cimpl aint of a lack of geographical divisions in the nomination of tate candidates other counties would follow suit to the astonishment of the republicans at tint thit meeting Cong congressman rebman joseph howell raised the question of a personal attack upon the character har acter of ed loose instantly the meeting was transformed into a session wherein candidates were initiated into the ananias club at the rate of ten a second loose was not at the meeting but his staunchest hest friends gave the lie to any aspersions that might be thrown upon him congressman honell hoell was told in emphatic terms that the private life of ed loose was aas as unsullied as the starry flag truth goes on to say that when the matter was presented to mr loose he was aas utterly broken and then refused to let his name be used for the position of goerner goer nor and now he be is so terribly cut up that lie he has bade adieu to utah politics well worse things could happen although if the account given is true it shows rankness on the part of the men who were here willing to use loose as a financial tool in elections and not give him any honors however lie is not the kind of a man for goNer governor nor and if there was N as no other way to pry him loose although knottier would way have been preferable prefer abe it is all right there is a chance for a capable man mail to get the nomination the herald one lay flay list last week put forward the name of E W roban robinson on bof of login as a candidate fo loi governor on the republican ticket mr robinson has been mayor of lagan and is said to be a worthy orthy candidate candid cand ate fur the office of gonerko goN erno the login journal speaking of his candidacy cindi dacy says that it is merely an attempt attim pt to fool the voters of the republican part into the idea that the fight for position is a free for all and that the machine nas the matter allax d as to state candidates and the you are f locally the politicians think thit thi the reaper is maling itself too promiscuous in political poll matters ard them would rather this paper le be quite so precious pre ious in announcing so 0 aminy miny candidates of course we cant help the fact thit people like continued on eighth pape POLITICAL candidates continued from first page to t talk lk of the future outlook for candidates and the nen news s of the d of matters us in spite of ourselves according to the salina call there are two to gentlemen who desire places on the ticket always providing thit that a proposed party caucus will endorse either of them one is george stevens the present commissioner from that town and a good commissioner he is too mr stevens will be a candidate to succeed himself if the caucus supports him the other gentleman la is P C another good man who will abide by the decision of the caucus either man will make a good candidate for the ticket but it is not sure that the commissioner will be all that salina republicans will ask there is a little quiet excitement going on in salina that not much attention is being paid to and et it is an interesting item word has been received here that postmaster wright has resigned and there is a nice fight on for the position there are said to be two candidates in the field W H rex and mrs josephine jorgenson the former is an old soldier and his claims for the office will weigh heavily in the matter of the appointment both aspirants are up to the standard as to qualifications and just what will result in the matter is hard to conjecture in times past the office of post master went to the man who coula get the most names on his petition for the appointment but this was nas an unwieldy method and it is said that the new method is to get the endorsement of the county chairman and the plum is secured of course this method is the ideal one for the payment of political debts as the chairman having the office to hand out can see that his friends are taken are of the matter of the salina post office is said to have first been brought to attention by a notice from congressman how howell ell to the republican county chairman that there would be a vacancy in the post office at salina as the res resignation ignat ion of mr wright had been called for and the congressman would be pleased to consider the appointment of some suitable person as recommended by the county chairman this is according to rumor yet it comes from a pretty reliable source and undoubtedly has some foundation just what A hat the reason there is for the retirement of mr wright is not given out it may be that there is some one who is not satisfied with the present postmaster for personal reasons and the v work ork of ousting him may hive have been goinz on for some time there is no knowing the devious workings vor kinas of enemies when an appointive office is held there are many ways that I 1 an incumbents downfall may be accomplished complis hed while the resignation of mr wright is not generally known it is a fact that there will be considerable talk occasioned by the action of the po powers ers in calling for the resignation and there will be scurrying among the friends of the candidates for the appointment there is one new name to present for county office thomas barson of monroe has come out with a square quare declaration for county sheriff he lays he will be an active candidate for that offie before the county convention tom is a rustler and he has friends in his home town who will work for him he has been town marshal for a number of 3 ears and a good marshal understanding his duties and doing them ile he will have strong backing for the position when iben I 1 the convention meets some of his enthusiastic friends are of the opinion that no better man for sheriffs office could be found in this or any other county the redmond republicans want vant martin jensen for representative and they are working up a sentiment in his behalf but mr benben does not say whether he will be a candidate or not of course there is ample time yet but there is nothing like letting ones friends know doing in politics it is understood that P D jensen will not be a candidate for the position of superintendent of schools this icar his monroe friends are authority for the statement that under no circumstances will he accept that office again he is out for the nomination for county clerk and means to land that place if possible it is not the emoluments of the office he is after but the experience epe nence which the office gives him and it may not be amiss to say that he may have an eye on a legal career and this office is one of the best stepping stones to that position which the county offices afford mr jensen is out for the place and will have the support of monroe for that or any other office to which he aspires following the definite declaration of the monroe boys that mr jensen would not accept the nomination for school superintendent comes the announcement of the candidacy of J lester quist for that position mr quist has a host of friends here who will help to put him in office if it is possible his ft fl lends declare that he ha is the best qualified man in the county county his record as a teacher of the eighth grade is pointed to as a guarantee of his fitness for the place ile he has the scholastic ability second to none and he understands the needs of the county schools as well is as any man can understand them his association with the public school work vork for many years makes him peculiarly fitted for the position and he will wage a merry war nar for the nomination on the republican ticket if successful at the convention and the polls he will make an admirable superintendent of schools now comes H F jorgenson in the salina call with an announcement of his candidacy fur for superintendent of schools for this county lie he has the qualifications all right and he stands an excellent chance of landing the nomination salina has a large number of votes and it beho behaves behoves es the fellows who manipulate the politics to see that proper recognition is given that hat town tonn as the voters have a habit of expressing their displeasure at political acts which tells in the final count mr jorgensen is a brother to the county attorney and the fact that two brothers may appear for nosi position tion on the sime same ticket may cut some ice however HoN Never the main thing is that H F jorgensen has the ability to make a good school superintendent J oscar anderson is a candidate for reelection election re he has served the county faithfully as surveyor for two terms and this fact is the only one that can injure his candidacy he is eminently fitted for the position and no possible objection can be raised on that score the funny thing in this is that salina men are after three places on the ticket out of eleven offices to be filled it will be a hard matter to land three offices for one hwn however it is just as well to try for all that is coming incoming up and something will surely be landed all the men mentioned from salma are fit for the positions to which they aspire |
