for his lungs and his breath will be wasted
by that time.
There is another Stanton who is anxious
to move from the fire department over to
the city marshal's apartments. OF course

A beautiful banner was presented to w.
H. Ryan, with his name on it, by employees
of the waterworks department, on Friday.
In acknowledging the gift, Billy should
have said: "Boys, there's only few Of US
Liberals left-even if you all are. When
shall we meet again."
j. M. Harvey, city watermaster, has re-
ceived a most discouraging letter from mis-
eastern friends, advising him TO sell out
their investments in Salt Lake at a dis
count If necessary, in view of the new
party organization here. Whether it was
due to such party organization or to the
representative of those parties is suscepti-
BILE to thought.
It. is alleged that Heber NJ. Wells, Re-
publican office-holder under the Liberal
government, after consultation with Boss
Bennett, has concluded not TO resign, not
withstandlng the edict from Car Powers.
The voters Of the First precinct agreed
to nominate for the school board Citizens
ticket, free from politics, and the call for
the meeting was signed by Clute, Stanton,

government. The statement has been duly
audited, and found incorrect. The latest
office in the city administration excepting
the four Doodle councilmen) is Assessor
and Collector CLUTE's, which does not ap-
pear in the statement except as fees"

Assessors and collectors salary.
Four boodlers' salary --------------- -
Mr. CLUTE (Rep.) feeds at the crib to the
