RreaIs Tn the Republicans.

of Trur,bo is almost unparalleled in
politics Here is a candidate Tor the
Senate cutting loose from MS party
organization and conducting an lnde-
pendent compaign with the opJeGt OIL
securing an elecSon at the hands OF
the party whose machine he repudi-
ates, and accompanied in this unusual
course by a speaker under the control
of the national Republican committee
who is assisting in this movement
against the regular organization.
Truly, it is peculiar.
George M Cannon feels very sore
over this movement 1t IS serious
blow at his standing, Il he has any
in the party. The only thing he can
do is to fight it unless he wants his
authority 10 go for naught, and ne Is
simply afraid to fight it.
The object Of Trumbo's tour is not
particularly to hurt the Democrats
but it is to hurt Frank ]. Cannon. The
principal work of the party is not to
! be done at the meetings but is to be
done at the towns where 1t VIII stop
and where several spokes will be put
in Frank Cannons wheel. The three
Utah men in that party will have their
knives sharpened and ready for WORK:
Frank Cannon has worked against
Trumbo early and late. He was made
by Crane and Glasmann, who made
sacrifices for him, and he helped turn
/ down Crane for the gOVernOrShlp ana
turned down Glasmann. who wanted
/ to be a member of the legislature
/ Crane and Glasmann know just
! few things about Frank Cannon and
! they will see hat these things are
/ known every place they go. They have
! some old scores to pay off and they in
/ tend to do so with interest They have
/ a few stories to tell and the stories
will lose nothing in the telling.
| The three men have some other
debts to pay off, too. They are after
both Wells and Allen. The influences
used by both these men to defeat Crane
/ have made the latter feel very cool to-
wards them. If they had beaten him
I in a square, fair fight he would have
/ been the first to come to their aid and
I help them out But he claims that
they beat him by undetermined means
and then they turned on him and said
bitter things about him, which he
! would not stand.
The result Of the whole thing will be
to split the Republican party into half
dozen pieces. So long as Trumbo
and Crane remained quiescent there
was some prospect of victory But now
they have broken out, the party will
be utterly demoralized. 1t will be split
right in two. with one faction following
Trumbo and Crane ana another follow
ing the machine and Frank Cannon.
What Will Brown Do:
But Arthur Browns friends are
wondering where he is to come in.
They do not expect him to submit
quietly while both Frank Cannon and
/ Trumbo are in the field actively cam
paigning for the senatorship. Ttey
have always thought him a fighter
clear through and unless he begins his
fight right now it is feared that he
"lll be ground between the upper and
the neither millstones.
The Democrats will not be hurt by
Trumbo's tour People will turn out
in large numbers to hear him and see,
of course, but the nptive will be Curl
0Sity rather than enthusiasm. They
have heard so much about his barl
and his lavish display that they will
flock to see him just as they would
flock to see the Siamese twins. with
small thought of supporting him as
against such men as RaWlins and
Thatcher With that issue presented,
Trumbo viii not make votes against
the Democrats.
There is No Denying That.
Curiousity to see him, however, is
very strong. There is no denying that.

FairchiId Has Arrived.
Lee Fairchild, the bright particular
star of the aggregation, arrived yes
terday and investigated the political
situation. with the result that he came
TO the conclusion that he had never
before seen such a fight as is now GO
ing ON between the different Repub-
lican factions. He had been in three
cornered and four-cornered fights, but
he was never before in an all-cOrnered
fight like this one.

been casting slurs on him and now
