Ordinarily everyone with the influence of would think that Senator Kearns, there 'would be no chance of the Democrats winning.

But there is an element of the party in that county which does not think Smoot is the right man this time and they are going to take some quiet falls out of Eddie oh election day. Hence it is seldom that Loose comes to Salt Lake since the campaign started. He is too busy repairing his fences. ft ft While Loose is having troubles of his own on the; Republican ticket, Abel John Evans is encountering some large gobs of grief on his part. The record Abel John made when he forsook the Democrats and voted for George Q. Cannon, when he and. his followers could have elected a senator by uniting with the eleven members who would have voted, and did vote, for every available Democrat, save McCune, is being used against him and a whole lot of the party workers become .apathetic when his name is mentioned.

'There is little sincerity and honesty in politics and not any too much of those qualities anywhere on this mundane sphere. Look at the attitude of the city council on the liquor business. . For a year or more a good mauy members of the qouncil have been ranting and raving for the closing of saloons on Sunday and the complete suppression of dives and' resorts,' Instances have come which afforded!ppportunity for the closing of promiscuous resorts, for the revoking of licenses and. for making a rule whereby saloon men would have to pay a years license, ip advance, thereby weeding out the worst element engaged in the liquor. business.' Did the council seize any of these opportunities to work much needed reform? O, no, not .by any, means. No licenses have been revoked, the proposed clause . to an ordinance requiring: payment of licenses in advance nas teen disapproved by a committee and ' the chances are 10 to 1 it will be turned down by the conncil.

If the .ordinance providing for the payment of licenses for a yeir in advance were passed and enforced it would mean thfe closing of probably twenty of the wofst dives in the city and a dimunition of revenue to the extent of $24,000 .per apnum.
