Ihe politician out of job, and the one
VINO is holding down seat, is very anx-
lous nowadays that his name and his
fame" and his .phiz'' should be spread
broadcast throughout the land. If his in
divldual worth is not recognized as fully
as he thinks it should be by a fair and
impartial public, there is yet another way
open to him-he can buy a certain space
Ior SO much money and therein he can
iau9 himself to the skies. If he has a
uIAiI-tone photo of himself accompanying
Tor MIN; but he should not, for moment.
,nae tne that the public-the yoters-are
blind to such tricks.
Great is the vanity of man. NV FRIEND
jim Bioor has discovered this fact, and
with his usual keen business discernment
Is taxing advantage of the situation-is
making nay while the sun shines. In the
latest issue of his paper he shows a num-
Ter OF Republicans who are so anxious to
take care OF the public business of the
the expense and trouble above referred
TO. Among the names on the list of pa
triots who. are willing to. work for the
public good-and incidentally pocket all
the fees, salary and other emoluments of
office. / notice II. r. Watrous, who seems
to have 'fmbibed'' the idea that his cleo
ton to the office of county attorney is
absolutely necessary to the good and well
fare of this community.
Great minds seldom run in the same
grooves: fhere are; as = RUE. some minor
points on which the brainiest of men
differ; this is evidenced by the fact that
che S. z. Armstrong, whom have had
occasion to refer to before, takes issue
with Mr.. Watrous, and gives it as his I'M
qualified opinion that the interests of the
public would be better taken care of il
the voters were to raise him from his
chair now so comfortably fitted to the
form of Walter Murphy. "Sanpete" is
rather modest in giving his reasons why
he is entitled to the surfaces of the peo-
pie, however. He is wiser than L thought.
Then there is 10 Lippman. JOS auto
biography is much better written than
some of the others. 10. you know, has
had some experience in Journalism,
and while it used to be charged
times, truthful in preparing a story for
the press in years gone by, / would not,
for moment insinuate that his old hab-

past two years, and, of course, believes
that the public would make no mistake
were they to grant him that great and
Jo,. however. has a rival in the person
of Lance Earl, who also gives to the
public few of the. many weighty reasons
why he would make a better public SER

ever. failed to polish his autobiography
with such rounded sentences as are con-
tanned in Joseph's recital of his many VIZ
story with the same avidity as they will
peruse Josephs 'Lance's'' health gave
way under the strain of overwork at
night; therefore he is entitled to the tat
test position in the county.
Then comes handsome George F. Dow
ney, who proudly announces that he is a
candidate for county clerk. George writes
don nTTfr
biography: SAYS he is a .'chfld of the ST.
erras," having been born in Prescott,
Arizona; that he likes a game of foot
ball; that he took special course IN a
most pleasing. if pathetic story by apol-
ogizing for the cut of his whiskers. Oh,
George. how could you'll
Following closely uDon Mr.. DowneyS
heels comes James r. Jennings. whose
good. honest face as it gaZes up from the
right hand corner of the sheet as write
a Democrat; he has no more the look of
a. Republican than has Grover Cleveland
or Judge Judd, and I must dismiss
mistaken. He thinks he is Republican,
but he isn't.
And there is Fred Leonard. I had near
ly missed him. because the alleged half
tone does not nearly do justice to his
handsome moustache, which has a rather
dropping and respondent air. Fred says
he is honest is an onniverous reader,
land except when the campaign Is on he
spends the evenings with his family
Therefore Fred believes that the citizens
of this county owe it to him and incident
ally to themselves, to elect him county
collector.
Trumbo JItah's savior. the man who
has conferred statehood on Utah, who re-
turned the church property. The man be-
fore whom the presidency of the. church
stood before with bowed heads, begging
for assistance. What q pity 1t was I'M
known before. The story of his great
achievements will live with the story of
able mysteries. Long live Trumbo, the
great, the bright particular star. and if
he will only stay at proper stellar as
lance where we can view him through
the telescope the people of Utah will have
Just cause for gratitude.-Manti Sentinel.
There are several ways to run a news
paper, but 1 must say the best way is
told in the following: 4 western editor
once invited correspondence as to the
best way to conduct his paper, and the
man who hit the nail squarely on the
head, replied anonymously, on a postal
card = Run it as you id please.-Rease's

The Brigham City Bugler is of the
opinion that woman wishes she were a
man:
When her wet skirts flap about her an
kles and her hair comes out of curl.
When she earnestly desires to use
word what printers express by a dash.
When she sees how effectively men ex-
press all their emotions by posing with
their hands in their pockets.
When she learns that there are spring
