They are playing into the hands of the enemy. Kearns is taking only passive interest in the He in reality governorship fight. doesnt care much whether Cutler, Wells or Hammond Is governor. He may not feet friendly to Cutler, because Cutler threw down the gauntlet to him. But this time he has had sense enough to harken to the advice of his counsellors and keep at least actively out of the muss. Thats what his opponents ought to have done, too, but instead they come out and make the question of governor the chief issue. They get into a merry scrap and while they are scrapping among themselves, over a matter of secondary importance, Kearns is scooping up delegates to the legislative conventions. Cutlers stock as a gobematorial candidate has not advanced the last ten dayB. On the contrary it has rather depreciated. Those who were absolutely confident that he would be nominated are wavering. While it is the wish of the vast majority of republicans that the governor be not a tool of Senator Kearns or any one else, the Cutler people are hurting their own cause by spreading reports to the effect that Hammond and Wells are both Kearns men. It is well known and absolutely certain that Hammond has and never had any affiliation with Kearns and it is just as well known that Governor Wells and the senator have been drawing apart for more than a year and that at this time they have little if anything in common. Cutler rests his caudidacy chiefly on the declaration that he is absolutely anti Kearns. e. KRUGS The Old Resort, 276 anti-Kear- ns JB JB The attitude of the Tribune, which in substance is that Senator Smoot should keep out of local politics entirely shows great inconsistency because of the fact that Senator Kearns, ever since he became senator has attempted to dictate in everything po. litical from the appointment of city to who should be his colleague in the senate. That pernicious activity has done a great deal to bring about the downfall of Senator Kearns. While we dont want any dictators, a United States senator cannot be denied the privilege of every American citizen to take an interest in politics. The great fight in Utah is between the two senators. If Senator Smoot wins out and defeats Senator Kearns, it will demonstrate to the powers in Washington that the former is backed by the people of the state and the latter is repudiated. This might have some bearing on the final outcome of the investigation regarding the right of Senator Smoot to retain his seat in the senate. If he is backed up by the state, it would be quite a help to him, hence to some extent his solicitude to down Kearns. dog-catch- er JB jB Legislative votes for senator may get to a good price this time.
