The other ballot is a secondary vote to be cast Dy taxpayers only which will not be figured in the total of the registered votes cast on the first ballot. The secondary taxpayer's ballot was requested by the bonding bond-ing company as a sentiment of the taxpayers in the matter. Its results re-sults will be mailed to the bonding bond-ing company. Voting lists have been prepared of all registered voters In each district, designating which ones are taxpayers from information furnished by the city by the county assessor. . It a citizen is listed on the voting rolls as a taxpayer, he win be handed two ballots, .the first for all registered voters, and the secondary tax-, payers only, ballot which does not count toward the election's outcome. If he is a registered voter but not a taxpayer, he will be handed one ballot only.

It is also pointed out that voters will cast their ballot for only one candidate for each city office of mayor,, commissioner and auditor. The two high candidates will appear ap-pear on the final ballot Nov 4, but acording to Utah election law, the voter only votes for one in the primary. While interest in the candidates candi-dates was expected to attract a considerable share of attention, it appears to be overshadwed by the power bond issue. The 'cost of power generation was becoming a major issue today, as the opposition op-position disputed generating ccs's ofered by the utilities board, and offered a $1000 wager in suppoit of their claim. Members of the utilities board stuck to their figures fig-ures and challenged the opposition opposi-tion to prove them false. Candidates who will appear on the ballot seeking the offices of mayor, commissioner and auditor, are as follows: For mayor, two-year term Mark Anderson for reelection, George E. Collard and M. Howard Graham. For commissioner, four- year term Ralph M. Eggertsen, Vivian W. Harrison, Hyrum;E. Johnson, J. P. McGuire, Earl T. Oss. Delbert L. Oswald, Eldon W. Payne and Joseph H.
