In the evening the committee met
and organized, by electing George NJ.
Hansen chairman and George L. Cor
rey secretary. Another meeting will
be held Saturday, when the executive
committee will be appointed
The strength and he weakness of the
ticket was discus; I'd considerably last
night. People with a habit of consid-
erlng details pointed out that of the
10 candidates eight are Mormons and
seven non-Mormons. BoStaph and
Chambers are nominated for positions
which they are now holding. Stewart,
Skeen and Layne were candidates two
years ago for the same positions as the
ones to which they were nominated
yesterday.
OF the legislative candidates three
are extensively interested in the sheep
business, and several of the other can
didates are sheepmen. Five OF the can
cidates are from the county and 10
from the city. The southern and south
western portion of the county was ig-
nored entirely. Plain City, in the
southeastern portion, got two candi-
dates, and West Weber, a neighboring
town, got one, which forced the retire
ment of Dix, the oarty's candidate FOR
assessor, who lived in Plain City.
