How-ell. This opinion was somewhat manifest at tho primaries and also at the convention conven-tion last Saturday. Such Is by no means the fasf for. both at the primaries and at tho convention, no opponent to Mr. Howell appeared and the paper has ever spokon In the highest termo of his work. The most encouraging thing about the convention was the unanimouH nnd en- thuslastlr demonstrations In his favor. All the men connected with the Republican Repub-lican are admirers of Mr, Howell. They know his work In congress and appreciate appreci-ate It, They realize how ably he repro-Bsnts repro-Bsnts the stato and how much ho has 1 done for Cacho county. Their only crlti- j clsm of him has been as regards his po- ' lltlcal associates and with tho view of 1 greater harmony In the party they would have preferred to see. some such "man ns Mr Robinson elected county chairman last Saturday. If he could havo been per- suadod to run In opposition to Mr- Thaln. Not that they do not appreciate fully tho work that has boon dono by Mr. Thaln in the pant and that they aro not contl- dent ho will contlnuo It In tho future. They indorse hoartllv all that was said In his favor at thn convention. Thinking, 1 however, that tho present Incumbent did I - not. perhaps, havo tho most hearty sup- port of all his followers and that a chnngo of chairman might bo a posslhle moans of securing oven greater harmony than at present exists In tho party," they would have liked, as wo have stated, to see nn- j other chairman directing the political af- fairs of tho county. Tho county, howover. I did not shnro tholr opinion, nnd they aro now willing to accept gracefully and glad- l.v the wishes of the county delegates as I they expressed them in the convention. 1 The Logan Journal says: "If there is , any nossiblo chance to secure tho , United States marshalship for Cacho in . addition to Thain's sinecure, D. R. Rob-. Rob-. erts doesn't, intend to let it got by him without making a strong grab for it. It is said his trip to Salt Lake Tuosda3' ' was in this interest. ' ' Church Republicans at Springvillo . will hold primaries this (Saturday) evening to select delegates to the judi- - cial convention nt Provo on September ' .14 nnd to tho State convention at Salt ' Lako Cil3' on Soptcmber 15. The Springvillo Independent snys: . "Justice William McCarty and District Attorne' D. D. lionlz 'wero visitora in Springvillo Saturday. Judgo McCarty Mc-Carty is a candidate to succeed himself on tho Supreme bench. Attornc3-Houiz , is a candidato for the judgeship of tho . Fourth judicial district. Both gentlemen gentle-men seem sntisfied with tho outlook. Wo beliovo tho Springvillo Republicans will heartily support both gcnWemen." Henry Catrow, a prominent mining man, identified with tho Ohio Coppor company, will be a candidato before tho American county convention for Treasurer. . 1 The Provo Enquirer snys: "Tho candidates, can-didates, for Stnto offices are all making short 'get-acquainted visits' into this county, as they aro all extremely nnx-ions nnx-ions to capture the lnrge delegation from hero in tho Stato convention. Tho sixty-seven votes from this county will como very closo to being a balance of power in most cases. And as wo havo no candidato up before tho Stato con vontion, the delegates feel frco to ask support for thomselvcs. " f Ifarmonj- is tho cry now of tho church Republicans. Chairman Hender-shot Hender-shot of the TVeber couuly church Republican Re-publican committee has issued a call for primaries. In speaking of the affairs af-fairs of his party in tho county, Mr. Hendcrshot said: "Tho one great uced of tho party, as I see it, is harmony. Harmony wo must have, if wo aro to bo victorious in tho coming campaign; and let. mo say that if we don 't get together to-gether and harmonize on the issues before be-fore us, wo need not bo disappointed at defeat nt the hands of the opposing forces, because thej- are very busy, and not less earnest in their efforts than aro we." Under tho caption "The Cinch That ! Slipped," tho Ogden Journal says: Congressman Joseph Howell of Utah will no doubt read with deep Interest of what happened to Congressman Burton L. French of Idaho In tho Republican State convention yesterday. French had a cinch also. In fact, no had no opposition. Ills renomlnatlon was conceded. He was on the slate. His tnachlno had ball-bearing gears and there was plenty of grease ! on tho track. All nature was clothed In I smiles and life was one long, sweet dream. Then came the rude awakening. Just I whon tho midnight bell was tolling In the capital city of Idaho. Congressman Burton Bur-ton L. French fell out of bed. In oter words the fact was drilled into him iat ho was a back number nnd that tlie next Congressman from tho Gem State" would be Thomas R. Hamer. There will he many curious to know whether Congressman Congress-man Burton L. French had any such an Incubus ns the Ogden postmaster hanging to the tall of his coat when ho entered tho convention hall In Boise. . Weber county Woman's Republican club meets Saturda' for the purposo of electing a now set of officers and reorganizing re-organizing for tho campaigning. Regarding the refusal of Judge Straup to accept tho presidency of the Tafl. club in Zion, the Ogden Journal saj's: In declining to servo as president of tho Taft campaign club. Judge D. Is". Straup , does right, and at tho same tlmo administers admin-isters a well-merited rebuko to the poll- tlcians who would drag tho judiciary through the mire of partisan politics. A I judge has a perfect right to his political ) opinions; ho has a perfect right to exer- ciso his political privileges as a citizen: i he has no right to utilize the influence 1 his judicial position gives him for partl-t partl-t san purposes. He must bo fair to men I of all parties; he must hold tho balance 1 of Justice even for those who oppose him In politics as well as for his party nsso-! nsso-! elates. Ho must bo absolutey freo from j bias, political or otherwise, to rotain tho confidence of thoso who havo to Tesort to tho courts. He cannot hold this confl-I confl-I dence if ho Jumps Into tho mlro of party I politics and tries to Influence voters for . one side or the other. Here's the unqualified un-qualified commendation of the State Journal to Judge D. N. Straup of tho Utah Supreme court. As to affairs political in Utah county, tho Provo Enquirer says: A. L. Toone, one of TVeber county's jovial politicians. Is In town todav, looking look-ing after the Interests of David Mattson, the present county clerk of the county, . who Is a candidate for state treasurer. I Mattson claims a majority of the TVeber I delegates and Is making a hard fight to ! carry tho state. Ho Is considered a I strong man and may carry a good por- Hon of tho delegates from the county 1 I with him. although thero have, as far ns ' wo can learn, been no pledges made to him or any ono else. Attorney A. R. Barnes was also hero this morning, looking out for his Interests for tho attorney-general's toga, and made n. number of friends while here. He tjpeaks very favorably of the outlook In Salt Lake county, and believes that another an-other Republican victory Is assured In oplto of the bitter fight which will bo ! mado by the "American party" bunch. I . Residents on the Uintah reservation are seeking their rights. Saturday last, , i at Myton, an enthusiastic convention ' was held and tho following tickets wore I nominated by the Republicans: Rupre sentntive, Rock M. Pope; commission-, commission-, ors, Ephraim Lambert and J. W. Mof-1 Mof-1 fit. Tho Democrats named William O'Ncil for representative, and Dan Lambert and J. G. Davis for commis- I sioners. Strong resolutions were adopted by both pnrties, demanding that tho two party conventions at Ilebcr recognize j thefio nominations and indorse thorn. j and a committee was appointed, cm- powered to fill vacancies nnd arrange for tho filing of a full " reservation fusion ticket in the evont the request t for tho indorsement, of those candidate? is ignored by tho Ilebcr Democrats and Republicans. Tho conventions wero attended at-tended by tho representative citizens from all parts of tho former Uintah reservation, and the sentiment was unanimous that tho reservation end of Wasatch county must this year receive its .j'st quota 'of officers, and if this cannot be had by means ot co-operation with the old parties, then the reservation reserva-tion settlers aro ready and anxious to i unite in an independent reservation movement that will result in capturing all the county offices for the reservation. reserva-tion. ' I The executivo committee- of the i Young Men's Republican club will hold a mooting Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock to complete "arrangements for a smoker to bo given by the club to tho delegates to the state convention on Monday evening, September 14. |
