M. Neuhausen of the Fifth precinct are strongly urging him to allow his name to be used as Republican candidate for the city council. Mr. Neuhausen is one of the best known architects in the city. He is thoroughly acquainted with the needs of Salt Lake, and it is believed would be a useful member of the council. He is a man of affairs and as honest as the day is long. Jl Jl Jl Since Fred Lawson became president of the Young Mens Republican club, that erstwhile powerful factor in the councils of the Republican party is losing ground. Mr. Lawson is unpopular and unsuited to the position, and what is still worse in the eyes of the young men generally, he is a pronounced Kearns man. As a result of the decline of the club, a meeting of young Republicans was held last evening to devise ways and means, independently of the club, of OMAHA BEER.
