come before an executive. He is
known to be a conservative man OF
safe Judgment, never rash, VINO mas
the whole interests of Utah and her
people at heart
An Experiment at Best.
At best the election Of Heber NJ.
Wells would be but an experiment.
/ His friends claim he would do well.
The people have nothing to assure
them absolutely that he will. There is
always the grave possibility that he
| might not do we'll, and the morbid
thought that if he did not it would
be impossible to remove him for five
years. John T. Game would be no ex-
pertinent. He has already proven that
he would be a safe man.
Roberts Election Conceded.
How about congressman? Well, P. I
H. Lannan, manager of the Tribune,
after the nomination of Roberts at
Ogden and in dozens of places in the
city yesterday, openly proclaimed his
belief that Allen might as well retire
from the race, as it was all over with
him. Another prominent Republican
said that Allen wasn't on the
same side of the street with Roberts"
EVERYWHERE it was conceded by
Republicans and Democrats alike
that Allen was killed. Republicans
who have never before scratched a
ticket, openly declared their intention
to scratch the Lily of the Valley and
vote for the man who would imme-
/ diately take rank among the foremost
orators in congress, as well as make
himself felt in the committee room.
Mr. Bryan, whenever spoken to on the
subject yesterday, praised Rawlins,
| Game and Roberts, the former two on
account Of aynarianoo with fhaY,o
in congress, and the latter because of
his short speech at Ogden. Men will
ing TO stake their money on Allen were
not to be found. He was believed to
be a corpse beforehand, and men spec
ulated only as to whether Allen would
prefer to be beaten without standing
before Roberts on the stump or would
stand up only to be knocked down.
Harris VIII Win.
Fisher Harris will make Hammond
of Cache think cyclone has struck
him. Harris can carry this county
with q rush. He is known everywhere
and liked everywhere. He has an
army of good friends who will take off
their coats and work to see which can
do him the most good. His opponent
can hardly hope to carry his county
of Cache. He is not very popular even
up IQGle. he Is d HAL VIII gives q
stranger a shock when it is learned
that he is candidate for secretary of
state Each must introduce himself
largely in the coming campaign. Coun-
try delegates to the territorial conven-
ton said that Harris Introduction
will carry him through. They were
all for him unanimously.
Barney Quinn came down from, Bing-
ham and was in town yesterday.
Bingham is always 16 to l." he said,
enthusiastically. Before the conven-
ton there were sixteen Republicans to
one Democrat. Since the nomination
of Rawlirls Roberts and Harris there
are sixteen Democrats to one Republic
cam"
Bishop Lately Admitted.
A. C. Bishop of Ogden will have a
beautiful contest with Weber of Weber
for the attorney generalship. Weber is
a whirlwind as a campaigner. He has
not been in Salt Lake very much, but
the north and south know what he
can do. He is a rafting speaker, a good
logician and an able lawyer. He will
make a very good impression before
the people and will be able to make a
far better showing than his opponent.
Bishop has never been very success
full lawyer. He was compelled to go
out of the law business and go into
the real estate business. 1t may not
be generally known, but he has not
practiced law in Utah. He was not
admitted to practice at the bar here
until the Saturday after his nomina-
ton by the Republicans, when Arthur
Brown made the motion to admit him.
Chirman's Popular Opponent.
The modest Mr.. Chapman, ,of Ameri-
can Fork, who blundered through 4
speech at the ratification meeting Mon
day night and created a very bad i'm
preston for himself, will be compelled
to meet a man who will give him the
worst race he ever had. Alma Green
wood comes into the battle with a rec
ord. He has been able to carry his
county, running ahead of his ticket.
He is a thoroughly able campaigner,
a good speaker and a man who un-
derstands his business. He is COM
petent and reliable. He will sweep the
southern tier of counties and~will meet |
Chapman on his own ground with an
avalanche.
Sanpete Recognized.
Sanpete county will roll up a hand
some majority for Guy C. Wilson. San
pete has long considered that it should
have recognition at the hands OF the |
state. 1t boasts that its voting
strength last year was only 16 less |
than Cache and that it should have
some strong voice in the affairs of the |
state. The Republicans passed over
Sanpete, after processing the utmost !
love for that county, and Janpete's |
citizens viii show their appreciation of
the more equal distribution made by
the Democratic party of their offices. |
Wilson is well known through the
south and will be far more effective as
a campaigner and vote-catcher than
his opponent, whose strength is like |
the county from which he comes, in
other words, Iron,' as one of the en-
thusiastic Republican orators said.
The Educational Battle.
There viii be an interesting battle |
between Karl G. Maeser and DIR. John |
R. Park. The public shool system will |
be thing that will greatly !
interest the people OF this state. /
If it is designed to bring in popula |
ton there must be full educational |
facilities for the children of the emf |
grants The consideration is import
ant DR. Park has devoted almost his !
entire attention to the university. He !
can have but little in common with the |
great public school system of the terri
tory, the common schools. DR.. MaeSer |
has made an especial study for years !
of the best systems of common schools |
and has evolved the best ideas as to |!
