cation meeting, at which the Demo-
Gratis who will assemble from all points

that the victory is with them.
The speakers invited by the COM

VIII ProboDIy Accept.
At the meeting of the Democratic
state committee this evening it is pro-
bable that Judge Powers will finally
conclude to accept the Craftsmanship.
The committee feel confident that he
will be prevailed upon to sacrifice his
business and risk his health for the
party-for that is what his acceptance
will mean. 1t is believed that Judge
Powers can conduct a vigorous, aggres-
size campaign that will make assur-
aFlce doubly sure and he is being
pressed to accept.
The Populists also are to have
great time today. They viii hold their
state convention in the Wasatch build
ing and condOle with one another on
the smallness of their numbers Then
they viii proceed to carry out the long
advertised programme and put Henry
w. Lawrence up for the slaughter. as
their candidate for governor They
wifi also put up a full state ticket. 1t
will puzzle them nightly, however, to
find four lawyers in their ranks to
nominate for the supreme bench and
for Encouragement. 1t is more than
probable that Captain Bailey, one of
their recent converts. will be honOred
with a judicial nomination. n. B.
Dresser will probably come in for one
of the executive officers The Popu-
lists are claiming many new converts,
but say they are drawing from the Re
IFdDlcans much more than from the
Democrats. They say in this county
seSlone 1000 votes will be given them.
The Judicial Conaention.
The judicial convention today is at
tracing more than usual attention
The resentment at the action of the
Republican convention is widespread.
Probably never in the history of the
new conditions has there been a ticket
that has received such universal con-
demnation from Republicans and Dem
ocrats alike The politician who dares
endorse the ticket, except as a matter
sof &c hoy 70 fin '11o o,11f
dates themselves are still endeavoring
to stem the tide of public indignation
by claiming that two are weak and one
strong. The strong man, of course,
is always the candidate who is speak
ing.
Barlow Ferguson made the remark
yesterday that he did not want to run
;.nless the party wanted him. He said
If he learned that the party did not
want him he would Withdraw from !
the race. He should have walked
down the street with any politician or
veil known man during the day and
heard the remarks. He would have
withdrawn in a hurry
Republicans were out all day en-
deavoring TO bring about non-parti- !
san movement. They argued with the
Democrats that it would be impossible
TO put a Democratic ticket in the field |
by the Republicans. They said that /
they wanted to have the ticket headed |
indebendent and were willing to con-
cede two judges.
Non-Partisan Movement.
In line with this idea resolution
will probably be submitted to the con- |
vention today. Ii is composed of |
whereases stating the Importance of |
the election and the dissatisfaction |
that followed the action OF the Repub- I
lean convention and then makes a
resolution calling for a committee of I
fifteen, to be selected from the con-
vention from the different counties. /
This coGnittee is to take in charge
the nomination Of three judges 1t is |
to meet with similar committee to /
