Show TRUTH THE NEW YORK DENTISTS m OPEN MONDAY, MAY 4th, AT 258 S. MAIN STREET Next Doer to Keith O'Brien'.. TEETH EXTRACTED AND FILLED ABSOLUTELY PAIN, WITHOUT y y y y y that the sult and believing auditor dare not hold up the pay of all the men in the department, the pay roll was presented to the auditor on the morning of March 30th, one day before it was legally due, and the day of the council meeting, verified under oath by George A. Sheets as chief of the police department, notwithstand ing that one day of the month had not yet expired. The auditors refusal to honor the pay roll until certified to by Captain Burbidge as the ranking officer of the department, and the resolution of the council endorsing the auditors position, repudiating Sheets and ordering Burbidge to immediately resume control of the police department are matters of common knowledge. Thus was the hope of the conspirators to establish the status of George A. Sheets as a de facto officer forever destroyed, and the fight was on in earnest to keep him in by hook or crook until after the fall election. The result of the story will furnish an interesting chapter for the next issue of Truth. POLiriCAL MELANGE. REMEMBER THE PLACE CE THE NEW YORK DENTISTS It is but a short time since Truth d informed its readers that a movement was on foot looking toward a declination on the part of the Democratic party of the city in respect to putting a ticket in the field this fall, and right now it seems as if the prospects for such action are very bright There have been many little consultations of late between members of the organization and many converts to the theory have been recently made. Even such a staid Democrat as William H. King looks upon well-define- the plan favorably. Judge King does not talk for publication, but this paper has it from authority which cannot be questioned that he is very friendly disposed toward taking such a step. It is argued by those who are working up the movement that there is no use in the Democrats putting such a ticket before the people, be cause, as they contend, the influences brought to bear at election time are such that no party can hope to win against them. Hence the plan is to hold the convention,- appoint a very strong committee on resolutions and this committee will report substan tially as follows: Whereas: The history of the past two or three elections has emphasized the statement that church influence is used in the political affairs of this state; and whereas, the results have shown us that those in authority here have no political preferences except to stand in every time with the party in power, which they do on all occasions, to the end that individual judgments and preferences are stifled; and whereas, we of the Democratic party can see no use in making nominations while such a condition continues; therefore be it Resolved: That this convention do now adjourn sine die; that the chairman, secretary and other members cf the city committee be continued in office until such times as conditions in Utah change, and that we urge upon all Democrats in this city the gravity of the situation which confronts them and suggest that at the coming election they exercise the elective franchise according to theii own individual judgments, voting for such men as may be their individual choice - KRUG'S OMAHA Krugs BEER.

He had received no certificate of appointment from the recorder, as is the custom with all appointive officers, and he had not even a letter from the recorder notifying him of his appointment. He relied solely upon the city attorneys opinion to the mayor, which, as Sheets must have known, was anything hut impartial, and which was given in the face of the recorders letter to the mayor notifying him of the councils action on the appointment, wherein it appeared that the president had declared the appointment not confirmed and no objection had been made to the decision by any member of the council. In this opinion, the city attorney brushed aside with a wave of the hand the section of the statutes referring to liability, stating that it was clearly immaterial to the question at issue, though this was the very point upon which the majority of the Supreme court later decided the case. It will thus be seen that the status of Mr. Sheets from a legal standpoint a few days after his installation was becoming very serious. It is a maxim of law that, when a persons right to an office is questioned at the outset, if he be an intruder, he can never reach the status of a de facto officer. To become a de facto officer, his acts must be acquiesced in for some time at least It was generally understood that Mr. Sheets right to the office would be questioned at the first meeting of the council. If the auditor could be induced to accept the payroll of the department certified to by Sheets before the council met on the evening of the 30th, although he might not pay the salary of Sheets himself, the status of de facto officer would be established and the de facto chief remain in charge of the department until after the city election, there being no aparent remedy by quo warthis re To ranto. accomplish Sail Lane Ciiy Brewing Gos.

These resolutions, with an appropriate preamble, written by some able member of the Democratic party, would if given the publicity sought for by its terms cause comment hroughout the United States. That this resolution, or some one equally strong in its language, will be introduced there is not the least doubt. Truth knows of a dozen able men who will father it and that it will be supported vigorously there is no doubt.

It is spoiling on the hands of It is apparent that Utah has the manufacturers and rather than run it down the sewer, where it belongs, it is sent to Utah and palmed off on reputation instead of quality. While singling out no particular brand, we can truthfully state that the greater portion of imported beers comes within that category. Now, we are in position to offer the beer consuming public the finest quality of lager beer ever produced in the west a pure, wholesome tonic, at no advance in price over the inferior brands. We do this to convince the public that Utah can manufacture as fine a quality of beer as can be produced anywhere in the United States. Every day strangers traveling through our city, drink the beer of the Salt Lake City Brewing Co. and pronounce it superior to any they can find, either east or west of us. We deliver to any address in the city at 12.50 per case of two dozen quarts, case and bottles to be called for when empty, and we pride ourselves on prompt delivery, so do not fail to telephone your orders to Xo. 17.

There is another rod in pickle for Senator Kearns. Through his untiring efforts it has been learned that he is not in favor of Roosevelt for the nomination in 1904, if there happens to be a chance to place Mark Hanna at the head of the ticket, and those who are opposed to this kind of work have determined to take no chances with him, but deliberately shut him out from going to the national convention either as a delegate or an alter-- , nate. Truth predicted that such action would be taken, in an article which appeared in these columns some time ago, and therefore it need surprise no one that there is a well developed movement on foot along the lines indicated, and that Tommy will have to get a hump on himself if he intends trying to defeat It. This man Kearns has to be sat down up on, said one of the movers in this of proposed action to a representative |
