THE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN
DISTINGUISHED SPEAKERS Sc
CURED FOR SATURDAY NIGHT.
c. c. Richards, w H King, David
Evans and Others viii Speak
Positions Promised by Driver.

There was q decidedly disconsolate
feeling late tonight among the best
posted Republicans. The dissensions
among the Democrats for which they
had hoped and on which they counted
to secure victory, have not materialized.
Last night il WAS announced that Hon.
G. G. Richards. Hon. ". H. King, Hon.
David Evans, Mrs. Matte Hughes Can
non. and many other prominent Demo-
Gratis, VIII take part in the campaign
speaking during the week. \ big DEM
ocratic rally in the opera house has
been planned for Saturday night, when
it is expected the four speakers named
VIII address the citizens OF ogden.
The Republicans seem TO have been
driven to their last resources. that of
promising The appointiva offices in
case of election. II is an open secret
that Davenport, chief of police. and
Bnford of the fire department. are
reasonably sure of reappointment in
case Driver is elected. At any rate,
both chiefs are nnanifestly interested in
having Driver elected. Davenport 5
friends are making q fight for Driver
on this, and Davenport is not prevent
ing them. In fact, many complaints
are heard about the activity the police
are taking in the campaign, even While
on duty, and there has been talk of
bringing the matter before the police
and fire commissioners, but the Demo-
Gratis feel that they have the victory
anyhow, and probably viii not press
the matter.
The claim is SET up in DaYenport's be
half that Boyle has promised TO appoint
James Sprunt, but this is simply des-
perate Misrepresentation. Mr.. Boyle
said yesterday Il have given no peidge
10 any man. Sprunt and l are friends.
but he viii not be offered a position if
[ am elected. He does not want one
He is out on the road now. but ! know
he will bear out every word | say. The
matter WaS never discussed between
US, except when he came to tell me that
he had no hand in starting the talk. II
l am elected mayor. | shall take the
office absolutely untrammeled by any
pledge and be free TO act according TO
my best judgment"
The open scramble Of the two chiefs
for the appointment is doing the Re
publican cause no good and in several
other ways the Republican campaign
is in bad shape.
The Evening Press came out last
night in aVoWed hostility to the five Re-
publican candidates seeking Reelection
TO the council. The Tribune. hitherto
a factor in the Republican campaigns.
is doing nothing. II criticized Vigor-
ously the abandonment of the Repub-
lican platform by II Of the candidates
for another one. but since then it is
silent. even in the face OF vigorous in
Vective from the Standard concerning
its accuracy.
Democratic meetings are arranged for
every night this week, winding up with
the grand rally Saturday with the dis
tinguished speakers above named.
