Show THE PEOPLE'S REFOR3I TICKET. Another Kichard in the Field for Municipal Honors. . The People's Reform Ticket, which has been in course of preparation for several days, has at last been completed and is given below. As will be seen, it contains con-tains a number of material, alterations I from the straight-laced ticket which is ! graced with the name of Alfred Solomon. The Dry Benchers have two representationsone representa-tionsone Councilor and one Alderman and if the statements made by many citizens be true, they will be supported by an almost solid vote of the residents of the north bench as well as by the numerous nu-merous sympathizers residing in those wards. The ticket contains one or two names which could be left off without injury in-jury to anything but the feelings of the parties themselves, but is, taken altogether, alto-gether, a much better ticket than the other one in the field. The retaining of ! Alderman Speirs and the dropping of Alfred Solomon are two of the most desirable de-sirable changes made and the substitution sub-stitution of the names, of John A. Groesbeck, William Fuller, Henry Heath and some others is a good move, and one that ought to count at the polls. It is understood that the ticket has resulted re-sulted from well-organized action on the part of the reformers, and has been care fully made up after a thorough canvass among the classes who are expected to support the nominees at the polls. As. an evidence of howl indefaligably the movement has been pushed, it need ' only be mentioned that several cool-headed cool-headed members of the" People's Party expressed the firm opinion to-day that this new ticket would be elected by a good majority. . It appears that there has been a great deal of quiet but effective work put in where the most good could be accomplished, accom-plished, and there is little doubt but Monday will witness a closer and more interesting election than Utah has ever seen before.
