NOTES.
Two young men of the town got too
much tanglefoot aboard last evening
and one of them, Bill Estey by name,
was thrown from horse in front of
the Commercial bank. The fall did
no damage, but the sudden stop with
his head in contact with the earth had
a tendency to sober him up some.
A marriage license was issued today
to Israel Hudson of Provo and Lulu
Singleton of Springville.
Attorney J. W. n. Whitecotton went
UP to the capital today on legal bust
ness.
Otto f. Malmberg Of Santaquin is in
Provo today on business. Mr.. Malm-
berg will be supported by the Santa
uuin delegation for the nomination Of
county treasurer on the Democratic
ticket and will run someone a very
close race for the position. Mr. Malm-
berg is a hard worker for Democratic
success, and his town is the banner
Democratic town of the state. Bishop
Evan Wride of this city, the present
incumbent, is also a candidate for the
position on the Democratic ticket and
has strong backing by his many
friends. As yet the nominal ton is any
bodys who gets it; either one of these
men would be elected if they were
nominated.
The general sentiment among the
people is that a clean sweep in the
county offices will be made. Those who
have held positions will likely be laid
on the shelf and new timber suhsti-
tuted. There are plenty of men to fill
these positions in fact there are as
good men who have never been in
office as any who have. This is about
the way the people Of Provo feel and
safe to say the balance of the country
E. A. Wedgewood's name is much
talked Of for the judiciary.
In fact his name comes up whenever
the nomination for the judgeShip is
mentioned. No doubt he would re-
ceive the support OF adj Democrats
and so per cent of the Republicans
OF the district. Judge Dusenbery is
spoken of as is also Nj. NJ. Warner, all
good Democrats.
