IuMIshf NtWMAN I.IHN CURRENT TOPICS. The Victory. The substantial victory of the Re- publican ticket last 'Tuesday is cause for rejoicing. It was a fitting repudiation of a party which has so shamefully abused its opportunity since placed in power by handsome majorities two years ago. The overwhelming defeat of Barnes and Backman should serve as a lesson to petty politicians who seek office. The people of Salt Lake will not tolerate men who have demonstrated a lack of ability in performing public duties. The election of Thompson means a good business administration, because he is backed up by nine Republican councilmen who are all men of sterling qualities. Naylor will pull the office of recorder out of the political rut into which it has drifted, and Reiser will make an ideal auditor. Truly the Democrats must feel a little mortified when they look over the list of councilmen and see the class of representatives returned who will look after their side of the council chamber during the next two years. There is Fernstrom and Edgar Howe, for instance. But perhaps we ought to be charitable. If they keep sober they will be instrumental in laying the foun- dation for a still greater Republican victory two years hence. business inser ion." ami adds that The News has M,ld space too many times on the ev of election. ell. how about the Herald?
