These lellelH are. manifest in authorized au-thorized Interviews which have been given out by Samuel C. Dve, chairman chair-man of the Republican county organization. organi-zation. When seeu, Chairman Dye said; Chairman Dye's Statement. ' I don"t think there ever wn3 a time when the Republicans were better organized and better prepared for an election than they are now. The reports re-ports from our canvassers an 1 precinct pre-cinct officials throuehrut the county Indicate that majorities will be even larger than they were two years ago. "While there has been considerable agitation on the temperance question. 1 bel'evo the campaign speakers and political workers have s-atlr fa.toi ily explained to tlie people that the position posi-tion of the Republican party on the temperance question Is the only correct cor-rect way of solving this problem and suppressing the liquor truffle. "'In the city of Ogden I estimate the Republican majority at not less than and returns from the country districts will swell this to 1 r.0i.

All the churches and the Uellerment league have declared for prohlb.llon and 1 don't see how a landslide for the Deiebocrallc parly can be avoided "Wo have u'so declared for a railroad rail-road connilsslon and I nm sure Uie people see the need of .mich a commission commis-sion for they had a pr.irt'eal lesson last week in the advance in the prk-o of coal.
