Harvey, well known union la- 9 bor leader, who was nominated J'or the lower house by the American county 1? convention last Saturday, yesterday ,4 sent his declination to David C. Dun- bar, the comity chairman. Mr. Harvey -2 finds that he cannot give the necessary B'.i time and nttcntion to tho campaign by K3 reason of the fact. that, it would inlor- fHtr fere with his work. Mr. Harvey's let- k tor says: "Feeling that I will be tin- ffj ablo to put in the necessary time in the Kv coming campaign and for other reasons Hij not necessary to mention. I herewith H respectful)' hand you my resignation as H a candidate for the lower house of the 1 state legislature on the American party p ticket." Ujj There will be an important meeting B this (Friday) evening of the district nj chairmen of the American party, all of -whom aro urged to he present. Tho meeting will bo held in the party headquarters head-quarters in tho D. F. Walker building, and will begin at S o'clock. Matters of great importance will be discussed. Mathonihuh Thomas on Thursday sent his resignation to tho county central committee of the Democrats. Mr. Thomas Thom-as is going out on the stump wilK Judge Erickson, the Democratic candidate candi-date for congress, and he will, as a consequence, be unable to devote the time necessary to his own campaign in this county. "Mr. Thomas, in his communication com-munication to Chairman Young of the committee, puts it plainly that lie would like to make the race, all right, and would do so were it not fpr the fact that his services on the platform are deemed necessary to Judge Frickson's success. In testimony of his unwavering unwaver-ing Democracy. Mr, Thomas winds up his letter by saying. ".1 shall be found making a hard light for the elcctipn of the ticket. I am unequivocally pledged 1o tho support of the ticket, and shall do everything within my power for its success.'-" The Democrats will have a ratification ratifica-tion meeting in the Salt lnkc theater next Wednesday evening. Judge 0. W. Powers and Judge W. .11. King will tear off a few yards of Jcffersonian declaration of principles, intermingled with the glories of state-wide prohibition, prohibi-tion, and .nidge Eriekson, Judge Kieh-ards Kieh-ards and some of the other Democrats will bo on hand to tell the people all about why the Democratic ticket should be IT. Excursions will be run from Provo and Logan. Judge Krickson. by the way, is in town for a day. He was at Democratic state, headquarters yesterday. "Mow docs it look. Judge.'" "Well, it looks fiue to me," said Judge Ericlcson, with a genuine Demo-! era tic smile. "In fact, I don't think J could wish it to look any better. T have been given assurance such as I never dreamed of getting, and altogether alto-gether wo size up the situation as being be-ing pretty much our way." There is strong talk of naming Judge Le Grand Young to take the place of i Joseph S. Peer)- on tho Democratic I ticket for the state senate. Tho Demo crats believe Judge Voting would make a splendid race. Oscar W. Movie, member mem-ber of tho school board, is added to the list of probabilities on tho legislative ticket. U The Hoc Ilivo house Republicans will rfiH hold their primaries this ( Friday) even- H jug in the city and couuty, preparatory "ffH to the convention to be held next Mou- B day in the Salt Lake theater. The word "ffH "primaries" is used advisedly, for, frrBl since. Farley I', ('hritcnscii made a few B .brief but pointed remarks aueut pri- H marics conducted by the Uechivcrs, "f"fl there has ceased to be such a thing in fffB the Smith-Miu-ian party. In view of H the light shed by thy ubiquitous Parley, fffH therefore, the affairs tonight will be fffB merely "going through the motions." HBVJ The delegates set a part in the city HBVJ will meet in the Salt Lake theater and HBVJ ratify committee appointments made hyj HBWj revelation, uud the men who take the HBVJ part of church inaniiilcius in the county HHBSJ will meet at Murray to say a fervent HBVJ "Amen" to the proceedings. H They say there aro contests for some HBVr of the nominations on the Republican HBVJ ticket, but there is good reason to doubt HBVl it. There can be no manner of doubt HBVJ that these "contests" will be alto- HBVJj gethor after the fashion of battles with 8 Indians that aro pulled off for moving Hfl pictures. Xo ouc will for an instant believe that any man will have a chance in the so-called convention Monday upon whom hands have not been laid. It will bo such a farce, this meeting in the Salt. Lake theater Monday, that the Ogdcn fiasco will stand as the embodiment embodi-ment of sincerity in comparison. By courtesy, in a few cases, the double swastika will be veiled, but the knife will be as keen and its penetration just as deep for all of that. Here is the way the church Republican line-up appears: For the lower house of the legislature legisla-ture T. A. Jlolnian of Bingham, C. C. Crapo of Sandy. Daniel Mclfnc of Granger, J. F. Cahoon, J. W. McIIcnry and Warren 7L Lvon of Murray; Claude Y. Russell, W. H. Tobias, Brigham CIcgg. T. A. Eknian, E. R. Eardloy. John Currie. h. Dahlquist, Frank L. llincs, Joel Jj. Niblev, Harry B. Cole, State Senator W." N. "Williams. Benner X. Smith, Stephen If. Love. Lewis T. Cannon was a candidate, but ho received word that Williams must be returned, and therefore tho gentle Lewis is on tho blind siding. Sheriff Joseph C. Sharp. Recorder Fred J. A. Jaqucs. Assessor Amos Gabbott. Attorney Job Lyon is a candidate in tho face of desperate odds. You see, Job got in bad when he tried to do his dutv in preventing a ilagrant steal by the'Smoot "Mouth" of SoOOO or $6000 in the delinquent tax list publication graft. Still he has hopes. His main opponents arc T. E. Willcy. who put a feather or two in his nest bv nominating nominat-ing Joe Howell at Ogden; James Inge-bretscn. Inge-bretscn. Moses C. Davis and Fred Mc-Gurriu. Mc-Gurriu. The man with the best look-iu, look-iu, however, is said to bo James Inge-breisen, Inge-breisen, who happens this year to be a Republican, so he says. There will undoubtedly un-doubtedly have to be a special revelation revela-tion on tho county attorneyship. Auditor Frank Heginbotham is quite sure in his own mind that he will got the nomination again, in spite of the fact that he has held the office for two terms. " Roscoo Vigus. who had tho presumption pre-sumption to announce himself n candidate candi-date while a clerk in Heginbotham 7s office, of-fice, says he is a candidate still. It is believed that Arigus will win. Treasurer Jack Grocsbeck has fingered fin-gered the county's money so long that he'd bo lost if he didn't keep on. Stephen H. Stanford and "Fred G. Bas-sctt Bas-sctt aro also on the map for the treas-urcrship. treas-urcrship. Clerk There has been no opposition, nor is there likelv to be any, to the re-nomination re-nomination of Mrs. Margaret Zane Wi tcher. Count v commissioners 0. W. Carlson Carl-son of 'Mill Creek, W. W: Wilson of Sandv. James 'Murdoch and Walter Bur-ton Bur-ton of Salt Lake City. II. P. Myton and J. B. Swcnson. present surveyor, are candidates for the nomination. Surveyor Jesse T. CannQii, A. Allan Gardner. Justice of the peace Stanley A. Hanks. ( onslablc Peter Hanson. Jt may be added, that the fact, that nearly all of these have grown fat at the public crib will have no deterring influence on the exercise of their gall. II. L. f'uinmings, deputy secretary of state, who has been secretary of the Republican Re-publican stato committee, likely will be reappointed secretary of that committee com-mittee upon the return from the east of the chairman. Cojonelf. F.d Loose, next week that is. if Loose decides to tackle the job again. In Colonel Kd 's absence Mr. Cummings was appointed bv Vice Chairman - Fred 0. Loofbourow Thursday to be secretary, and it is likely like-ly that the chairman will continue tho appointment. Chauncy P. Ovcrliold. an old-line Democrat, has tendered the county committee com-mittee the use of one of his new store roonis on State street, just north of the Knutsford hotol. Chairman Voting and his committee will probably accept Mr. Overlield 's tender and will establish estab-lish headquarters for the county campaign cam-paign thcro. The latest "dope" on the now Democratic Dem-ocratic nftcruoon paper ih that it will make its appearance October JO. The Descrct. Evening News quotes Senator George Sutherland as faying that if he is elected to tho L'nitcd Stated senate, he will servo his term and not accept u federal judgeship, not even a place on the Miprcmc court of tho United States. Far be it from Gawgc to want, a federal judgeship! Far be it from Colonel Jackling to want Gawgc to throw up hirf job as senator! |
