Thomas Smart, president of the board of trustees trus-tees of tho Agricultural Collcgo received re-ceived a set back when Mr. Smart published tho statement that ho was not 11 candidate We are sorry that Mr. Smart Is not in a receptive mood at least, as we had hopes that tho boom would materialize, and thnt ho would bo elected. And why should he not bo elected 7 Ho Is thoroughly capable and has shown by his works that up to date he has the welfare of the school at heart inoro than any other mnn In tho state. While mon have handed out hot air by the bushels as to what thoy' Wore going to do for the school somd day, Mr. Smart In his quiet, unassuming unassum-ing way, and without flourish of trumpets, trum-pets, has gone down Into his pockets nnd handed tho school ten thousand Hollars. Ho is ono of tho members of tho hoard, nnd it would bo a fitting recognition, and an honor worthily bestowed for his fellow board members mem-bers to elect him president of tho board. Again Cacho County has never hud tho honor of holding tho presidency of the board, and we think It about time It was coming our way. Not that wo feel that Cache has any claim over and abovo any other county, but now that Salt Lakocounty nnd Bqx Kldcr county have had a turn, It Ib certainly cer-tainly in order for Cache to come tp her own. These fipffbrs (should be passed arourid. We arc In for Thomas Thom-as Smart fprthe poslllon.anil '4'uH be will nliow his nrihib o go before tho Uonrd for president, .i 1 .u. |
