Crockett was the opening gun In a bitter Intra-part- y feud which is right now In pro grese In the ranks of the Utah Ka publicans.'' Further on the article Staten: 'The telegram from Senator Smoot cams the morning of the convention and urged Hyrum E Crockett to switch hia support from waa Bamberger to Clark for there cross soma dirty work at tha roads."
