PARK CITY. Oct. 24-Democrats
and Republicans have not yet quit
talking of the recent convention held IN
the Salt Lake theatre, and Of the ring
ing declarations at that time.

Of the delegates who were returning
t. their homes via Park City, and there

that Q great work had been accom-

and strengthened with a firm resolve
20 continue the fight. even though a
generation was consumed in gaining
the ends sought.
Interest Intense.
At Democratic headquarters the in
terest was intense. and the spacious
quarters We're thronged all day and
well into the night with interested
people. a great many of whom were
Republicans, the paucity OF reliable
information as to what actually took
place being commented upon in very
scathing terms. AS a matter of fact,
it Is coming to be we'll understood

paign being carried on in various
other places.
While all of the proceedings of the
convention were of the utmost interest
to Democrats and Republicans alike,
there is no doubt but the thought up
permost in the minds of the people
generally was: What will be the po-

eminently satisfactory goes without
saying. The comments heard on AL
hands were flattering to the gentle
man. There were no Democrats and
but few Republicans who had any
doubt as to just what position he
would take. and his public cOndemna-
ton of the action of the men who
are seeking to degrade the Mormon
church in their own interest was as a
beacon in the dark.
1t is noticeable here, even at this
early stage of the game. that Republi-

Rot From the Record.
We are having a bundle of fun with
the Record. On October 10 the versa
tile and gentlemanly Buchanan was
uawise enough to publish the following:
Powers grand stand play to avoid
the complete Wrecking of his party eX-
cites considerable amusement n this
camp, where voters are able TO diStln-
guish between genuine danger and po-
litical buncombe. Bets are freely Of

When asked about it now, Buchanan
will probably sing the refrain, Il didn't
think he'd do 1t, but he did" 1t was
a. clear case of biting off more than he
could comfortably chew. Buck is an
awful good fellow socially, but he has
not the least business to be engaged
in dealing in revelations. The boys

when the Record man tore the wrap
Der from The Herald of Wednesday,
and eazed at the heading. a. visible
tremor was noticeable; that when he
had finished reading the headlines he
appeared to be dazed, and after put
ting in the balance of the day di-
eesting the grand and glorious truths
reflected. he went home and thought
the thing carefully over. The result of
the "thinklets" will appear in the next
democratic City Ticket.
The Democrats completed their city
ticket this evening by the following
nominal tons:
AIayor-W. H. Goliath.
Trea surer-J W Gelger.
Police Justice-Daniel Hurley.
The aldermen named are as follows:
First Ward-Fred Larsen and S. T.
Thompson, the Republican nominee.
Second Ward-F. c. Thompson and
James Quinn.
Third ward-G. W. Curtis and P. H.
Talon.
City Campaign Committee-John
Paradise. Willard Sorenson, Sanford
Hyde. Robert Bowen. James Muldoon,
Joseph Durken and George Lindsay.
Tt is generally considered a very
strong combination, and will command
many Republican votes if street ru-
mors are to be relied upon.
