Doodle bOsSlsm.
OF course, am sorry that the Re
publican friends could not get elected,
TOO, as against the Liberals. But
then. YOU see, the Democrats do not
need any help to get there. They can
do that themselves, and save thanks.
In oth0g words, the IteDGDiitans drr

however much my esteemed trIeHG ON
the OGDEN Standard used to protest,
mat he II his friends had no likelihood
of becoming ingredients OF any con-
s0uBe. And this reminds me OF the
little unpleasantneSs between the
Standard editor and the Liberal Repre-
sentative elect from Weber county,
whose success at the polls is uHdUuUt
eddy due to the fact that many other
wise solid Republicans w0uld not stand
idly, or inactIvely by, anc see one ol
their former allies and friends lpollll-
calIv and socially treated to dose oil
caustc soda from a pharmacy, whose
druggist might have taken the old
adage OF the residents OF vltrlne habl-
tati0ns into consideration.
But. that is not what ! wanted
to say, is it? Hardly. My friend, j.
X. Bosnard. Esq Whose level head IS
not entirely engrossea in business, but
who has heart for fellow-sutfelings, II

featees) asked me: What > the news

did he get there?"
"They say he did, anyhow"
"How?''
with both feet, OF rather with all
tours.
"How do you make that out?''
EASY enough. First the Wasatch
county Citizens put HIM up tor the
office OF representative, which he had
held for about twenty years, although
it Was remarked 10y some wlstacres that
a man should not be allowed to hold an
office TOO long, however well he might
have filed 1t. Then came the news that
the Republicans from Emery county
had put him up" -,
'How about the Wasatch citizens"
Weren't they Republicans too?'
ono sir, they sad they were not; IN
fact, in the convention that nominated
President Hatch, 1t was distinctly ana
especially stated that national politics
cut no figure in the selection.
so we have two nominations for
Mr.. Halch-the Wasatch citizens anu
Emery Republicans"
~ es sir"
"And the "citlZenS were not RepuD-
4 leans, were they ?"
No. SIT, for Mr.. Joseph Hatch, a

actions, he d move Tor my removal from
any public gathering where he had
any thing to do"
90 yes. but that doesn't tell about
the other two OF Mr. Hatch's al tours.
That's so. Wen, I'Il tell you, Ii
YOU won't give it away to HE DIS
PATCH"
Mr.. Boshard made no promises very
prudently thinking that | might give
it away myself, anyway. So he lett me
to tell the tale.
Here it is:
AT the Democratic county convention
of Inlv 2pth. wnen the delegates (l6 IN
numbpr) made up the ticket, the Rrp-
resentativeship was left unattended to,
because Mr.. BUYS chairman OF the
comfy committee and himself spoken
of AS a probable though not possible
candidate) had gone To Salt Lake city
IT, attend the territorial convention ot
Democracy. and it was deemed wisdom
TO wait until hts return and report as
to what action the Emery and Grand
county people had deemed best TO take
Resides il was not exactly known what
would be Mr.. Hatch's politics. As far
AS anyone dared to venture an lntlma-
tion il was learned that he had SAID he
was not Republican. At the al
iourned delegate convention on the
25th. Mr.. Hatch was nominated by seven
of ten delegates (R. Bridge, esq,
actinp as chairman after
Mr. WahlquiSt, of Charleston
and another gentleman had put in a
timid protest, inaSmuch as they under
stood MIR. Olson had been nominated
as Democratic candidate and had been
announced as such. SO Mr.. Hatch got
in his No. 3.
.sAnd where does No. i come in?"
Now you got me. But l. tell you
You see the Midway precinct Demo-
cratic club had unanimously voted for
John Huber to be superintendent OF
schools. and David Van Wagenen for
one selectman. But some of the dele
gates to the county convention proved
Tecreant to their trust and neglected
their instruction, thus causing Tor al
lowing the form ition of another ticket
than that contemplated. Then the
friends of the two gentlemen named.
seeing there was no time to correct the
mistakes went quietly about and got up
an independent Democratic ticket, sub
stituting for the name OF A. Wootton
for superintendent, that of II. NJ. Arid.

the Citizens. and the name OF ID. Van
Wagenen, ST., for that OF A. J. AleXan-

on the name Of A. Hatch, Just the
same as the re ular' Democrats had
done"

And Mr.. Hatch got there?"
