Now that the two conventions have com- pie ted their work, now that the two national parties in Utah are in a position of power before the country, there should be an earnest earn-est endeavor by conciliation and decency to relegate dead issues to their graces, and to bring republicanism and democracy front to front as the only contestants upon the political po-litical .battle-field. Then there will be a glorious glo-rious fight. Ogden Standard. The Sugar company have had men out this week gathering soil from the various farmers near here.

I 8alt Lakers are wondering why things are as they are; why an outsider was tendered the portfolio of chief of police when there is at present a man on the force and holding a position just a little less than the marshal-, ship, who has done such excellent work in the past and has a record which promises a great deal for the future. In other words,-they words,-they are wondering why it is that in this particular instance the devil getteth not his due. Park Miner. WTien election day is afar off, promises are profuse, because Utah has always been democratic dem-ocratic and the infant must have the party pap occasionally, but when election draweth nigh, some great party sage stands up in the midst of ihe grand council and with pro- J found political sagacity proceeds to lay it down, that as for this Utah we must not at this time go before the country as its deliverer deliv-erer it will be the "fly In our ointment." "Walt until the next congress." And so they wait, and so also does Utah. Logan Nation. The territorial liberal republican committee com-mittee held a meeting in Salt Lake City yesterday. yes-terday.
