BRIGHAM JOHNSON, assistant mana
ger of the Coop, is aggrieYed at the
jot which appeared in these columns
last evening referring to the stores
prominence in the republican conven-
ton of the day before, and he lodged
strong kick at this Office this morning.
He says that it is not q fact that the
store has gone over to the republican
party body and soul. Three clerks who
are republicans were delegates in the
convention, but there are at least two
men employed in the store who are
democrats. The memorandum slips
for bslloting were furnished by him
inadvertently. He was asked by the
committee to get paper for balloting.
He wishes now that he had got wrap
ping paper and cut 1t up into slips.
MT. Johnson claims that the jot REFER
red to has already hurt his business
and he feels that it is unfair that the
stores business should be injured
simply because three of its clerks hap
pened to be elected delegates to a con-
Yention. The store aims to keep poll
tics out of business. While it Is reason
able inference that the Coop wants
only the patronage of republicans be.
cause it asks for patronage only through
the republican paper and Ignores the
democratic paper, yet The DISPATCH
aims to keep its business and politics
separate and does not desire to stand

went awsy marvelling much at the

DEMOCRATS of PROVO, you will neglect
one of your most solemn duties if you
fail to attend your primaries tonight.
Two councilmen are TO be nominated
from each ward and these should be
the choice of all democrats. You can
not express that choice if you are not
at the primaries, and then delegates
are tc be elected to go to the conven-
ton and nominate Provo's next mayor,
marshal, recorder; treasurer, and Jus
tice of the peace. Be sure that repre-
sentative democrats are the dele
gates.
