July 21. -The Central commltteo of tho Republicans of Sanpeto county will mcot nt Republican headquarters ut Mantl July 23 to consider matters relative to the county convention for tho nominating nominat-ing of a county ticket. At this meeting will be decided the lime and place of holding hold-ing this convention and nlso the apportionment appor-tionment of delegates to tho several precincts. pre-cincts. On account of local oondltlons In tho county there scorns to be a general sentiment In favor of having an unusually lnrge convention. Although tho commltteo commlt-teo will pass upon theso matters, It hns beep suggested that the apportionment bo oft ttho basis of one delegate for every eighteen votes or major portion thoreo'f cast for Hon. Joseph J fowell for CongrpS3 at tho last election. This would make" a convention of 102 delegates, apportioned to the several precincts as follows: Mount Pleasant. 21; Ephriam, 23: Mantl, 22; Falr-vlow. Falr-vlow. 15; Gunnison. 15; Moroni. 12- Fonn.

It has also been suggested In this connection, con-nection, and the general sentiment seems to favor the Idea, that all the precinct primaries for tho purpose of electing delegates del-egates to the county convention be- hold on the same night; and It may be that tho County Central commltteo will .mako that recommendation. W. D. Cnndland of Mount Pleasant having hav-ing withdrawn from the race for State Auditor the only other candidates for placos on the Stato ticket aro A. C Nolon for State Superintendent of Public Schools and Swcn O. Nlclson for State Treasuror Both parties were here during the SenndU nnvlnn reunion and each was evidently doing a llttlo political fencing. Swen O Nlclson said that he was not going to make any scramble for the oflico of Stato Treasurer. Ho contends that the oflico should ecok tho man and not the man tho ofllce. He takes the ground that whllo A. C. Nelson ought to succeed himself on account of his record, ho ought to got hi nomination from Salt Lake county and In the distribution It should bo charged un to Salt Lake county. 1 Attorney DeMolsy of Provo camo hero from Mount Pleasant yesterday and during dur-ing the nfternoon was buv consulting with loading Republicans over the political politi-cal situation.

DoMolsy's visit to Sanpeto Is essentially essential-ly political and tho candidacy of John C Cutler for Governor Is receiving somo attention. at-tention. Ho 1b out of tho city today visiting visit-ing some of the neighboring settlements and will return to Mantl this evening.

Tho Judicial situation will receive attention llrst. Chairman Thaln Is taking steps In tho mattor and will confer with tho chairmen of Box Elder and Rich counties coun-ties as to their desires In tho matter. For tho judgeship nomination and for the next Judge of this district for that mattor all eyes of tho Republican party and a groat many of tho opposition are looking toward Wlllard W. Maughan of. Caclio county. Mr. Maughan haa the united support of all the Republicans of hla county and from prcaent Indications will recolVM the same treatment from ad-Joining ad-Joining counties. Ho Is thoroughly capn-ble, capn-ble, well versed In the law, of thoroughly sound Judgment and will go into the campaign cam-paign with tho distinction of having carried car-ried Cache county two years ago by KO majority.

In case Judge Hart ls nominated on the Democratic ticket for Judgo thero promises prom-ises to be a pretty fight for District Attorney At-torney on tho Dcmooratlo ticket.
