in Sanpete.
The Republican state central COM
mittee has surrendered to Trumbo.
Such are the financial straits Of the
Republican committee that it has at
length been compelled to bow before
the streak of sunshine from California
and to entreat him to furnish the
money wherewith to continue the cam
paign.
This was done reluctantly. Every
means possible was tried, but no
money was forthcoming. The candi-
dates were assessed in large sums.
Even the district judicial candidates
were assessed at $500 apiece. But the
assessments have not been paid up.
Bills are constantly coming in. Money
for the parade next month is needed.
Money to colombo in the various coun-
ties throughout the territory and in the
Third and Fourth precincts in this
city is needed.
a It now leaks out that the committee
IS d0AlOuSlN awaiting liz AONOAAA u
Trumbo. with the hope that he Will
omen his barrel and give it the where
yithal to colonize in all the close
counties. Some of those who have
been presenting bills have been told
on the quiet to wait until the colonefs
return and that they will then get the
money.
In the meantime Charley Crane and
! Trurnbo~ are off in San Francisco enjoy
= ing themselves and waiting for the
committee to PROSTATE itself Then,
when th,. have the forces in such
position that they can demand support
in their senatorial ambitions, they VIII
come forward and open their barrel.
This is indeed Democratic year.
Wells VIII Run Behind.
It will be a close race between c. z.
Allen and Heber NJ. Wells to see which
will run the farthest behind his ticket
next November. Somehow or other the
Repub!icans have conceived the idea
that he will be the strong man on their
ticket but on election day a very great
surprise awaits them. Tney will find
4 that they have been buncoed into be-
iieving there was strength where in
reality there is deplorable weakness.
It is almost laughable to hear Re-

will have 1000 majority in the terri
tory in view Of the knowledge now in
the hands of the Republican state COM
rnittee and the party workers. They
are beginning now to realize the awful
truth and it cannot long be kept from
the party workers.
1t is being found by both parties,
however, that Wells Will make very
DOOR run 1t was expected by the Re
Dublicans that he would cut sadly into
Game in the city districts and thus
even up for the gains that will be made
by Game. who viii cut into Wells in
the outside counties, where Wells is
not known and where Game is as
strong a man as could be put up.
But it is evident that the fun party
strength in the city districts will be
r polled for Game 1t is not expected
that he will win any considerable Re
publican strength here. His own party,
though. is satisfied that he will make
q most acceptable governor and will
administer the affairs Of the state in
such a way as to make the party
stronger in the state. Therefore they
will stand right by him and keep
W ais from gaining any strength to
offset his country weakness.
Lawrence Will Cut Wells.
Norec yer. Wells will run behind his
ticket right in the district where it
was thought he would be strongest. II
IS found that in Feber's own borough
Salt Lake, Henry W Lawrence, the
Populist nominee, will cut him. Law
renee will get a very heavy vote among
the old Liberals here. who hardly fee
able to swallow Wells. This element
IS found almost wholly in the Repub-
hcan party. and the Democrats will
not be touched by the feeling. More

very discouraging.
Wells is not helping himself in the
