In some fashion several of the fleet-footspecies escaped from their field, and whether the work of some prowler is to blame for their freedom, or if a weak spot in the fence was the cause, has not yet been reported or determined. There are nearly a dozen deer in the enclosure, several small ones being included in this number. One or two of the herd are still in their pens, not having dashed away with the others. The straying group have been seen since their outbreak on the canal banks and near several homes.

A few minor cleaning-u- p details were given attention Monday and Tuesday and the road has been officially declared ready for use. Big Improvement The project completes a work program undertaken by the state highway commission early this spring, and is said to be one of the finest thoroughfares for its distance, in this section. While it has only an oil- - surfaced and graveled top, it is the hope that pavement or asphalt may be lain, giving it a smoth hard surface. The highway is a continuation of South Carbon avenue, with motorists aud tourists following a straight direction. Several hazardous curves as well as two narrow dangerous bridge have been eliminated. The new stretch measures approximately a mile and Price-Huntingt- on Grogan attended from here. "The securing of this honor displayed the spirit of the post. Every member of the American Legion from here was on the job every spare moment of the time and without this united effort we would have stood considerably less of a ors-wh- chance. There is no one person who is to be given credit for the move; the entire membership as a whole deserves the praise.

While he did not say whether or not Way man would be arraigned on one or both counts, it was his opinion that both charges would be read. Detailed investigations and examination of witnesses employed the first few days of the week and a fairly accurate story is said to have been gleaned.

Republicans lined their array of candidates up for the big election parade at their state convention Saturday and Mayor Harman W. Peery of Ogden added to the length and interest of the affair bv definitely stepping into the line of fire in the battle of ballots when he announced his independent candidacy for the governorship the same day. Governor Henry H. Blood carries the mantle of battle for the Democrats and Ray E. Dillman, Roosevelt attorney, was placed in the field as the Republican candidate for the governorship Saturday. At present indications point to one of the most interesting state campaigns in the history of Utah. Belief that the national campaigning will have an important, bearing on the state office candidates drive is quite general and the manner in which the plans are mapped and carried out will add to the interest. Adoption of a somewhat liberal platform at their state convention last week is expected to be of material aid in their drive in this section, the program on which their candidates will wage their drive for votes containing a number of planks which are expected to have a direct appeal here. The Republicans had some pointed planks included in their platform which included lessening of the public money levying process of the state through the general sales tax and touching in the lower brackets on the income tax. They feel, too, that their more specific direct primary platform expression will prove of material aid here. vote-seeki- the state, ng es sub-distr- statements is- sued following the semi-annual- ments commit- - v tee meeting here Sunday.
