that the name implies. He will doubt
less have the support OF the Mckinley
senator from this state.
/ Rogers, too, has qualifications. He is
tall and fairly good looking and on
| dress occasions wears a pug E2i-. When
! 1T is remembered that nearly all the
great men in the party wear plug hats,
ii VIII be noted thus Is a qualification
which must be given full weight He
offered, several times during ule cam

! which is another good point in his ia
Vor. Suppose ii wasn't bet. WHATS
the ODDS? That is the question he
! asked all through the campaign. Lind
! say can claim, too, that he howled fer
harmony ali through the ance-election
days and at the convention at Ogden
! offered to vote for anyone, no MATER
/ who, specially John Z. Booth, for the
sake of harmony. 1t is said he had some
Hanrla money during the campaign,
and thar counts, too. In the coming

port of-himself and several others.

! Harry Joseph of this city is laying
/ several miles of copper wire during
I these mild winter days. He is working
/ to get a connection with the office OF
surveyor general. Ii VIII be remem-
! bered at one meeting in this city Harry
was observed to cheer the name of Nc
/ Rlnley. The fact was reported III A4-e
Herald at the time. Of course Harry

the mining camps and do great shout

to be wondered at, for was he not a can

defeated him? Cert. But from all in
dlcatlons Harry walked into the lit
tie booth on the day of election and
voted for the major; voted for the bee
hive and the eagle and let it go at
that. And who could do more. NO
one So when this fact is brought to
the attention of the major, by the SEN
ator from Utah and the senator from
Nebraska, and the senator from Ohio,
and the senator from Minnesota and
several congressman from all over the
! land, and a few good people from sew
eral places, it is believed Harry will
stand a good chance of being selected
to run the lines in this state in the in
terest of the general government.

A press dispatch announces that 900
drummers, or commercial travellers, are
! coming west to sell goods to the men
who live in the inter-mountain states.
A prominent merchant of this city
said yesterday in connection with this
matter that his house would buy moth
ing this year from Chicago, when the
same can be purchased at ST. Louis
SDOulQ
combine. That Denver, Salt Lake
Butte. Cheyenne, Rawlins, Evanston,
Grand Junction, Ogden and all cities in
/ this region should unite and declare
/ to Chicago their intention of purchas-
! ing of their friends and not those who
have voted against their interests If
| this is done, st. Louis will be benefited
a great deal, and there will no doubt
be an appreciable change of sentiment
toward the west and its interests in
the Windy City, which has for some
time characterized this country and it's
people as an anarchical aggregation of
regulators and would-be destroyers of
the institutions of the republic.

Judge Sommer is going to file a
statement of his campaign expenses
in few days. Among the items which
will appear therein will be roses, %
cents. It happened this way: Nor
ris was "coercing" young lady into
voting for him one evening in a drug
store where flowers are kept on tap at
all hours of the day and night. Not
ing some roses she took two, pinned
them on her dress front and told the
clerk to charge the same to the justice,
who, at the time, was as broken" a
man as one would wish to see. The bill
reached Morris yesterday, and he has
MADE an amendment to his statement
1t is understood the Populist mem
bers of the next legislature will not
caucus with the Democrats, but will
preserve their party organization.

Among the bills which will be intro
duced into the legislature this winter
! VIII be one which will protect a mar
rled laboring man from garnishment.
| This law is in force in Nebraska. Mis-
souri, and several other states, and
works well. AT this time a married
| mans wages can be jumped on and
taken, or at least half of them, while
the homesteader is protected to the ex-
! tent of 81, 900 or more. The labor unions
will petition for the passage of this
measure, and it will go through. a
Republican legislature killed the bill
last year.
Now that election is over, the organs
of the Reunited Republicans are an
nouncing that they are willing to kill
the fatted calf and open a new barrel
of sauer krout if the recalcitrants. who
voted for Bryan will only come back
in the fold. The Enquirer has this to
say:
The bolt from the Republican partv
is now generally conceded to have been
a mistake. Of course Republicans feel
| badly over the way the boilers served
| the party, but the Enquirer is ready 70
let the dead past bury its dead, and
receive the reDentent Independents
back to the fold. They are not at home
with Democrats and will not associate
with them, even though deputyships are
held out as inducements By unity of
action, Republicans can carry most of
the counties again two years from now.
Utah is by principle and practice a Re-
publican state; her people were simply
carried away by the silver fight
| The tone of the leading organs of the
Mckinley faction during the campaign
were TO the effect that the doors of the
! Democracy were wide open and that
boilers from the Republican ranks
should walk in. Now that many have
availed themselves Of the opportunity
| the remnant of the &. o. y. in Utah is
beginning to become alarmed lest it be
shut out from power here for all time
! The above invitation is but the fore
runner of a lot of gushing appeal which
will fill the columns of the party press
for the next II months.
There is some hope for Bryan Re-
publicans who want to remain in the
party of protection, promises and
poverty. 1t has been decided by the
Mckinley managers that to bar them
entirely from any of the spoils, would
turning to the fold. So as a result all
Bryan Republicans, who can prove
they did not vote any portion of the
| Democratic ticket except the head
| thereof, will be permitted to live.
