His path has led him by the farm, the carpenter shop and the ra'lroad, first working . on a section, then grading and finally fin-ally firing on an engine. When only sixteen years of age he chose law as his profession, and after I working all day he devoted his time at night to studying. Saving up his money enabled him to spend two years at the Utah University, again returning to manual labor and practicing the strictest economy econo-my he saved up suificient money to go East and during the years 18SS and '9 pursued his studies at the University of Michigan.

In connection connec-tion with other business he has a large and increasing land oflice practice. He joined the Republican Republi-can party in 1SS8 and after the division was the first local Repub- Mian speaker in Boxelder County. He is now acting, and has no been for the two Inst terms, as city attorney for Brigham City. Mr. Jones is a perfectly reliable man, thorough tho-rough in all his work, ofa kind and generous disposition and his heart is in the promotion of the public good. Ho is the very man tho people of Boxelder County should elect for their attorney, and we confidently look for his election, and by the largest majority of any one on the ticket. Logan Nation. t |
