THEY now call him "Wheat Chaf9'
Jones, and he is having rocky road
to travel
TALK about "cliques," what about
the old "court house gang" which is
still in evidence.
OUR local Democratic friends would
not stand on "three-legged stool" in
Mason County, but they don't object to
standing on any old thing in state
issues.
IT might as we'll be understood that
none of the corporations of Mason
County are in favor of the Republican
candidates, or aiding,them in any way,
financial or otherwise. They are
standing solely On their own merits.
LOOK out for canards of all sorts,
and remember that it is common
political dodge to spread all kinds of
yarns when it is too late to refute
them. Ample time has already been
given for anything on either side
which is worthy of notice.
"WHoM the Gods would destroy,
they first make mad" was never better
illustrated than in the blind madness
of Lewis and the Seattle Times. Its
coarse language is disgusting many in
this vicinity, who refuse to longer have
it around.
LEWIS and yakima" Jones debated
at Walla Walla, Saturday night. Both
sides claim the advantage, but since
the Seattle Times is bowling about the
Republicans packing the house," it
may be guessed things did not come
Lewis way altogether.
EVERYBODY who knows Mr.. Gunder-
son, and that means every man,
woman and child in Mason County.
knows that no one has any strings on
him, and that he is in position to rep
resent the whole people and to protect
their interests.
WONDER why w. Fl. does not blow
the breath of life into that $500 scrap
pile into which is centered so much of
his hopes and ambitions for future
greatness, now so sadly shattered?
Now, that fusion failed his aspirations
for two years hence are "Dead Sea
apples" aud some people have learned
thing or two about the newspaper
business in the costly school of ex-
perience. Another paper might liven
things up.
The Republicans of Mason County
never before placed before the voters
such ticket of representative and
qualified men, as they have this time.
Every man who is elected will be able

of government.

CARBON COUNTY SCHEME.
Republicans Change Their Ticket to
Suit Price KickerS.
Especial to The Herald.)

ASpGCldl TO 1u6 I1eTd1u.)
Price, Utah, Oct. 15CSeveral mem
bers of the county Republican central
committee and candidates for office on
the Republican ticket held a supposedly
secret meeting at Castle Gate last
Thursday night, to discuss the political
situation in the county. It will be re-
membered byreaders of The Herald that
at the time the nominations were made
the assertion went broadcast that the
west end Republicans had hogged all
the nominations in the interest of the
Pleasant Valley Coal company. The
Price crowd came back very sore, and
openly talked that they would not sup
port the gang ticket, but would go over
TO the Democrats. This feeling has
grown TO such an extent that the lead
ers have become alarmed, and at the
proper thing-in fact ANY old thing"
TO keep the boys in line on election
day. Matters have been patched up by
an understanding that \. Beverage,
candidate on the Republican ticket for
assessor and collector, Will fail to file
his acceptance Of nomination by the
25th os this month. This will leave d
vacancy TO be filled by the county
chairman, who will name D. w. Hold
away for the place, and thus things will
be partly patched up. Beverage Will
plead a pressure of private business.
There are other sacrifices to be made
in order to keep peace with the Price
folks, but these have not been finally
decided upon. 1t is believed that the
armistice comes too late, and that the
Democrats viii elect every man on the
ticket, with possibly one exception.

CLARK FOR LEGISLATURE.
Ticket Nominated By the Sewer
County Republicans.
pecial to Me Herald.l


Richfield, Oct. 15.-All day today the
Republican. county convention has been
in session in this city Theodore Brand
ley of this city was chosen temporary
chairman and Charles Olsen of Elsi-
more, secretary. The usual committees
We're selected, by the chairman and the
convention adjourned to pm. On con-
vening, w. H. Clark of this city was
elected permanent chairman and
Charles Olsen of Elsinore, secretary
The only business to come before the
convention was the placing in nomina-
ton of a county ticket, and the con-
Vention proceeded to this work at
once. The following is the ticket that
was placed in the field:
For representative, w H Clark.
Richfield; county commissioners, J. w.
Phillips, Salina; A. r. Oldroyd, Glen
w. G.. Baker, Richfield; recorder, Mrs.
Laura Baker, Monroe; assessor, ]. B.
Sorensen, Redmond; treasurer, James
S. Jensen. Salina; sheriff, John w.
Coons, Richfield; attorney, Joseph H
Erickson, Elsinore; surveyor, Homer
McCarty, Monroe.
The convention passed off in the best
of feeling as a whole.
The non-MormonS feel somewhat
at not receiving a candidate
on the ticket from their ranks, and it
is thought that they will organize and
nominate a ticket of their own from
among the candidates on both sides,
but the majority of that ticket will be
taken from the Democratic candidates.

MORGAN COUNTY DEMOCRATS.
Thomas Spackman Nominated For
the Legislature.
Especial to The Herald.l


Morgan, Oct. 15.-The Democrats Of
this county met in convention at 10
o'clock this morning in the county court
house. They adopted ringing resolu-
lions in favor of the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to
/: endorsing the Chicago platform of
1896, and condemned the inefficiency
and miSmana cement of the war de-
partment; Republican methods and
general inability to manage the af-
fairs of state.
The following ticket was nominated:
Thomas SDackman, Canyon Creek,
representative; D. A Robinson, Nor
gan county, clerk; Chris Kofford, Can
gan, recorder; Samuel Francis, Morgan,
prosecuting attorney; w. H. Rich, Can
yOn Greek, assessor: +. a. Little. Mil
ton, treasurer: T. w. Clark, Canyon
Greek, surveyor: J. w. Stewart, Nor
gan, George r. Thackeray, Croydon,
and John Thurston, Littleton, county
commissioners.
Inasmuch as the county's debt is
about $4,000, J. Williams CT Peterson,
prosecuting attorney of the county,
made a strong speech in favor of the
reduction Of county officers salaries,
in order TO create a sinking fund, so
that in 1902, when this amount becomes
due the county would not have to be
bonded in order to pay the debt. This
seemed to be the sentiment of the con-
vention.
Joshua Williams was chairman and
Mr.. Francis secretary of. the conven-
ton.
At the primaries Friday night S.
Francis, jr.. was named as candidate
for justice of the peace, and NJ. n. Cor
bett for constable.
