The Boss.

Detroit Free Press.
A street car horse attached to q
Gratiot avenue car fell down the 9th.
or day, and as he realized that there
was no particular hurry about getting
up as that line runs by the moons
changes, he took things easy and a
,.rOwd,cOllected. A bout 100 people
surrounded him when the man who
is always around in case of an acct
dent, damned his way into the thrOng
and exclaimed:
"Why don't some of you get a rope
and tackle somewhere
No one answered.
"Then somebody get a rail or a
scantlingu he continued. "Here,
eight or ten of you get one of those
2X4s and help me lift that boss up"
The driver, who had taken advant
age of the occasion to see what day n
the week the next trip would be made,
got down, took the horse by the bri-
die and yelled "upv and the horse
reached his feet with hardly an ef-
fort.
There! What did tell vel" growl-
cd the man as he fell back. That
boss would have died if l had not
come along just as 1 did,"

PEOPLES PARTY PRIMARIES.

A PEOPLES Party primary viii
be held in each school district Of
the city on Monday evening next.
January Goth, at 7:30 O'Clock, for
the purpose of choosing delegates to
a municipal convention to be held
one week later, for the nomination
Of city offices. The plan Of electing
delegates direct from each school
district to the general convention,
instead Of holding precinct primaries
as heretofore, is n simple and direct
method Of enabling the people to
select such representatives as they
see Git. and will result in getting an
EXPRESSION from far larger portion
Of the party than the old method.
So great is the enthusiasm Of the
party that not n building in either
ST the precincts that could be Sc
cured for the purpose, would &C.
-ommOdate more than a fraction Of
he voters who want to attend the
primaries. But by having school
district primaries all voters who
wish 10 exercise a voice in the |
raining Of the ticket will have the
light TO do so.
The number of delegates to which
ach school district is entitled, is
-iven in the call Of the Peoples
Central Committee, |
which appears in another column.
4et the voters turn out in force, and
hose representatives who can and
viii best express and carry out their
Jews in the municipal convention.

WARPED AND ONR-SIDED.

TIE other day we drew attention
20 the fact that, under instructions
Of the Utah Commission, the city
registrars were appointed body of
reference for election disputes, such
as grievances in relation to chal-
lenge.
The beauty and Justice Of this pro-
vision, in view Of the unjust conduct
vfthe registrars during registration,
are clearly, visible without the aid Of
a feld-glass. The further consider
alton Of the fact that four out Of the
five registrars were placed upon
the ''Liberal'' ticket as candidates
for Office was further suggestive Of
the way in which a ''fair election"
is being conducted by those to I
whose hands It's manipulation has /
been confded.
Now the city registrar Provides
what IS presumed TO be a plaster for
the partizsn provision. The four
registrars who were reirardsd for
their "LiberaI'' work by being
nominated for of CO are thrown out
Of the body Of reference. Col
Page announces that he viii be as
sisted in the work of deciding elec-
ton disputes by Mr.. McCanum, the
only one Of the five registrars who
has not been rewarded 10y having
his name placed on the ticket. OF
course this Is exceedingly consist Z
emit That Is, It is consistent with
the manipulation Of the present cleo
ton thus far. Mr.. NicCallum is a
believer in "Liberal'' rewards for
the performance OF work done - =
rresI,,... ,I,----s- officer, with
q 'L.iberal' bias. lie It was, when {
there was q prospect Of r. T. Bur ]
Ton, Jr., getting the nomination for {
assessor ami collector, who ieaped I
10 his feet in the convention and /
insisted that It be given to Z. r. I
CiuUe, as a reward for the way in
which he had worked up the regis g
ration OF the Second Precinct. Be- j
ing a champion Of Liberal, Re. !
wards foE ''Liberal'' work, the log !
cal presumption is that when a !
natter comes before him in which
he political Interest OF his protege c
: involved, his course will be in {
,eeping with his announced posi- i,
ion. n
But all this is in unison with the Y
-eneral situated. It willin time to v
ONE be admitted, rs historical :
act, that no election campaign in
ny city, county or country was "
ver conducted with greater unfair :,
less or injustice than this. Itisnot Al
cal, lawful voting strength with I'll
mich the Peoples party are con- Is
ending. Ifthat were what was ar az az
lyed on the other side the contest ~
'olld hardly amount to struggle. OF
Is the one-sided character of the III
'ntroyersy against which they ot
ave to contend; the outrageous par an
zanship OF the whole business of co
anipulation, which thus far has tn
zen placed exclusively ia the r ria
inas OF the other side. This con- eli
ton viii make the Peoples vie tic
