That should be done in the field of actual campaigning, where the citizens have an opportunity to meet the candidate and engage him on the question he discusses.

This is not to be construed in any way as an indictment of the scores of honest state employes who are doing their jobs well. But it is necessary to point out that their efforts are largely being nullified by the evils of machine politics in the upper brackets of state government.

This project includes gravel surfacing and oiling the road from Logan Canyon Summit to Garden City and oiling of the project west of the summit which was graded and graveled iast year. It also includes oiling of approximately 2 miles of road along the shore of Bear Lake south of Garden City. The road from Garden City to the Idaho line will be given a sealing coat with rock chips. Construction will require 57,000 tons of crushed gravel and 320,000 gallons of oil. The project is 19.1 miles in length and when completed will give a hard surfaced road from Logan to the Idaho line. Earliest Thanksgiving! The earliest narvest thanksgivings in America were observed by the Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth in 1621. Congress recommended days of thanksgiving during the Revolution and in 1784 for the return of peace as did President Madison in 1815. Washington appointed such a day in 1789 after the adoption of the Constitution and in 1795 for the general benefit and welfare of the nation. President Lincoln in 1863 proclaimed a day of national thanksgiving, praise and prayer.

While here Mayor Lee, long an outspoken critic of the present state administration, will address a meeting arranged by local supporters and at that time will make refinements on a platform in which he pledges himself: (1) Stamp out politcial racketeering; (2) reduce taxes by directing lands into proper channels; (3) build Utah with action and not words; and (4) overthrow the oligarchy which, beyond question, now rules this state. I will not, said Mayor Lee, make my platform topheavy with the kind of planks which unprincipled politicians adopt for no other reason than to attract votes.
