terests are all confined to Utah,
and in her advancement he
only seeks his welfare. Next
comes the name of Joseph N.
Benedict, DR.. Benedict, who has been IN
Utah near twenty years. Perhaps no
man in Salt Lake City is more popular
than he with all classes. He IS the
physician of the Hospital OF the Holy
Cross, and all the afflicted who have re-
ceived the kind treatment Of the Sisters
of that institution and the skillful treat
ment of Dr. Benedict will remem-
Der him with gratitude congratulate
the people generally upon his nomination
The next candidate for the House Is
Abram F. Doremus, Utah man from
birth. By profession Mr.. Doremus Is
civil engineer, and is what is termed
substantial citizen in the best sense OF
the word. In politics he has been but little
known, but with all engineering works
OF magnitude he has been identlfied.
Nothing but his desire to see Utah freed
from her political thraldom and see her
rise to that position for which Nature de-
signed her could have induced him to
consent to lend his name and int1u-
ence to his party as candidate.
| The next name is that OF A. l.. Will
liams. Mr.. Williams has been a long
time in Utah, and before his advent here
| was an active member OF the Illinois
Democratic Central Committee. He is
still a young man, being under forty years
of age, and none are better fitted for the
position to which he has been nominated
than he. He has no selfish aims in pol
itics and he sacrificed his personal feelings
when he reluctantly consented to be-
come candidate He is son OF Bishop
Williams, OF Pleasant Valley, who is SO
well known in that part OF Utah.
H. D. Rippeto is a man OF some fifty
years of age, and is resident of Bing-
ham. By profession he is mining engi-
neer and expert, and long life Demo
crat. Utah has been his home for many
years past and will continue to be- In
mining and business circles he is well
known and well liked. He adds strength
to the ticket, and if elected will give
strength to the Legislature. The sixth
and last name on the ticket as q
candidate for the House is that o.
Stephen Hales, of Pennington, Davis
County. Mr.. Hales is an old timer in
Utah, having come here among the first
Although not affiliating in politics with
the majority of his neighbors, he com
mands the respect of them all, and they
will feel that the Democrats have made 6
worthy nomination, and one that vii
doubtless receive much support in hi:
county.
The nominee for County Superintend
ent of Schools is Joseph T. Kingsbury
He is son of Joseph c. Kingsbury, a
a gentleman we'll and universally known
in Utah. Mr.. Kingsbury occupies the
chair of chemistry in the University o
Deseret He was born in Utah and haf
ever resided here save when in attend
ance at Cornell University. No filter
man within or without the party could
have been nominated. He is such
man as lends strength and char
acter to any ticket, and one tC
whom every parent and guardian in the
county can safely entrust the care of theil
children's and wards education. With
such a man as Superintendent of Schools
the standard of our schools will be
raised and their morale much improved
For Selectman, Bolivar Roberts was
put in nomination. 1t is needless tC
recommend Mr. Roberts to the voters o.
this county, as there is no man within
the county more widely or favorably
known. Mr.. Roberts has been identified
with Utah and her intrest for thirty years
while his parents came from Nauvoo
With such men as Mr.. Roberts in office
the county will have better roads and
bridges and more funds in the treasury.
The party is to be congratulated upon
all the nominations, and the thing to do
now is to work to make them triumphant
