Show H . JVcbv Lady and a JSfete Ttger H or Ogden e& A S'ensation H br e Junction. H The passing of Councilman Cross, of the Third H 1 1 ward, leaves a vacancy which will probably be H filled at the session Monday night. The active H candidates for the succession are John Farr and Hk ' William Craig. Craig has the advantage of the B ( early bird in the light, while Farr has all the other H 1 advantages. The politics of the matter all point Hu , to Farr but it is said the mayor is playing Craig Hm for purposes of his own and if so it is all off with K the Farr boy. The remaining councilman from HJ the Third, Randall, is also for Craig. Now if the B 1 good men of the council can bust that combination H,h Intsy will deserve places in the hall of fame along- H side of Brigham. H H If Old Spore would cease his lamentation over H tho enforced banishment of the kitty from the club H rooms of Commercial street all he would have to H ,do is take a flyer to Ogden where the regalia and H games of the old Sheep Ranch are in full and H ' prosperous blast. In connection with this free ad. H I might say that the combination of the lady and H t lie tiger has been put to daring and romantic use m in that the lady has been staked out to boost for m the tiger. A few ot our plungers have gone against H the game the combination, I mean and some M vivluo and more money has been lost. It is a new M i sensation for commonplace Ogden, but the sequel H shows we have our wicked spots and if Old Sport B has any doubt as to this true story he can see for m himself by calling upon the lady who will steer J bim "with pleasure" to the lair of the tiger. H fcyV 5 cv B 'We may be taking a long shot at the outcome ' of the librarian contest, but the tip is-out that H the coveted places are to go to Miss Brown and , Miss Hendershot. The library board will decide m vho shall be the librarian and who the assistant H by the casting of ballots, and the candidates who M have the most friends among the board members B will win out. In a contest of this kind, where M more than one board member has a relative among H too aspirants, there is bound to be much wire pull- H ing and much personal effort put forth to win. H The matter will come to a head shortly and it is H only for the purpose of saying "We told you so" H that we are confiding in an anxious public. We H hac pushed the button you do the rest. H v?v tv v H In a recent issue of the Daily Bill there ap- H reared a political resume written either by the Hj editor of the Standard of the mayor of Billtown. M In some paragraphs the earmarks of the editor Hj stand out clear and convincing; while again the H tell-tale hand of the mayor looms up in the next MH j sentence like a renomination In search of a candl- jH L date. Therefore, we are in doubt as to whom is j due credit for this forensic effort, but there is lit- B tie question that either the mayor or the editor is H entitled to the reward. But to the milk in the H ' cocoa-nut. The article alleges that Bill would not Hi i . accept the nomination for mayor under my circumstancesoh, cir-cumstancesoh, dear no, he could not think of it. Then a few second-raters are trolleyed our for the people to ponder o'er while Bill is thinking up a rat fling good speech of acceptance against convention con-vention time when the gang will hand the offering to him on a platter. Our only object in calling attention at-tention to this matter is to put the public next to tho way in which the stool pigeons that Bill has put out to draw the lire, will skirmish around looking look-ing for support, entirely oblivious to the fact that P.ill has decided to succeed himself. When Bill has relegated the eligible material to the back-giound back-giound by keeping his puppets in the public eye, he will announce through his own paper that since tbe party (the gang) demands that he again sacrifice sac-rifice his own interests, etc., etc., why, of course, he must bow to the will of the party. Hurrah for Bill! |
