Kaysville. June 29.-There was a
very fair attendance of ladies and gem
tlemen at the Democratic meeting in
the city hall and it speaks we'll for
the ladies to say that they We're in
the majority They treated their CO.
workers of the male persuasion with
true feminine magnaniminity, however,
by giving them the preference when
it came to dealing out offices. In fact,
they seemed just a little dubious at
first about accepting any office them
selves, desiring only, as Mrs. Mary j.
Proudfoot expressed it, that they be
given a vote and they would not seek
Office After two or three earnest but
good-natured speeches by some of the
gentlemen, urging the propriety and
desirability of having the ladies rep
resented on the board of officers, they
withdrew their objections and, as will
be seen by a glance at the list of Of
ficers below, the ladies are well repre-
scented, both as officers of the society
and as delegates to the territorial con-
vention.
Twenty-four new names were added
to the society roll last evening, and
there is every prospect of a much
greater increase of membership when
the enrolment committee gets down
to real earnest soliciting.
Thomas H. Phillips presided at the
meeting, and after the necessary pre-
hminary business, officers of the So
ciety for the ensuing year were elected

The society, under it's new organiza-

and without a doubt this years cam
paign will be an earnest and agrees
sive one, conducted on the lines of
IOHtSAy anu ldlI HSSS. IcSlQSuL 1Illl-
lips, in brief but succint address
last evening, outlined this as his pol
icy and added that he had no fear for
the result of such a campaign.

Kaysville, Miss Fannie Hudson and
William C. Smith, were united in mar

nesday of this week. They returned
