About the sweetest morsel of political
lollypop ever dished up to an enlighten-
ed community was that smudge written
in local organ about how Mr.. ALI
son could secure hearing before po-
litical and monetary magnates. II
there is any great art in this accomplish
ment ~ it might stand Mayor Ella In
hand to 60 in trainging, 1t haslalways
been our understanding, that any man
in spirit and act gentleman. had no
need to kick his shins long in the ante
room of any man worthy the name gent
leman. 1t does not even bear discussion
that Mayor Ella would secure hearing
wherever any other man could, without
unbending or abating in the least a jot Of
his own personality. Some men would
rather be kicked and cuffed In the doors
of the purse proud and self conscious,
than meet on the broad common ground
of equality, their peers in everyday life.

SHORT PEN PICTURE.

Let US paint you little pen picture.
Two months ago, united people sought
only one end, progress and prosperity;
two months ago, men would have
hooted at possible revival OF tho water
fight and its bitterness; two months ago
every bending effort of a united citizen
ship was brought to bear to secure the
beet sugar plant; two months ago it was
conceded that there would be no politics
in the city campaign, plain, practical
business administration was demanded.
Now you have aligned hostile un-
bending political one man organization.
The,thing dreaded,a a municipal. l.fght,has
been launched with bitterness; personal
antaeonism are spoken and written to
harass; the great business proposition OF
the building Of the beet sugar factory is
for the time being forgotten.
Which condition suits your mind the
better? Is there any demand, except.b by
few self seekers for the second condi-
tion. 1t is not necessary that you be a
wise man to draw comparison.

wIPING OUT ROBBERS

Price, Utah,-Sheriff G. W. Alfred Of
this county and . posse left, here today
for Green river to 60 to the aid Of Sheriff
Tyler Of Grand county, who has had a
battle with what is known as the Rob
bers' Roost gang, and who are reported
az being headed for the bad lands on the
Colorado and San Rafeal rivers. Sheriff
Tyler hiss also called to his assistance
Sheaiff Leamaster OF Emery county,
Utah, who is with posse going to help
the Grand county sheriff. A telephone
message from Leamaster says one Of the
gang was this morning shot and killed
by Tyler's crowd, but the name Of the
dead robber is not given.
From messages that have passed it il
believed that the Robbers Roost gang
we're today in vicinity Of Green River,
and about seventy miles from where
Sheriff Alfred of Price and Sheriff Tut
tie Of Emery county about one year ago
killed Butch Cassidy and Joe Walker.
The direct cause of their being hunted
now is that many horses have been sto-
len the past few weeks in the vicinity of
Moab, Utah, and whole herds of cattle
driven of. Sheriff Tyler was elected
last November on the pledge that he
would exterminate the gang 90 far az
Grand county was concerned.

SANTA CLAUS,

write letters to Santa Claus and mail
them. In large cities they are handed
to the blind reader" who looks after
difficult, fictitious or erroneous ad-
dresses and are then sent to Santa
Claus-at the dead letter office. Wash

lives in New York, some associate the
saint with the north pole and others
think his proper address is in Iceland.
1t was no doubt freak Of childhood
that to the words north pole" on one
envelope was added Brooklyn" A
New Orleans child addressed his letter
to willie Santa Claus, New Yourk.
La" There are no return requests
placed in the upper left hand corner Of
the envelopes, which goes to show the
sublime faith the children have that
the latter simply cannot fail to reach
Santa Claus. One boy wrote:
Dear Santa Claus-My ma told me to rite to
you. Please bring me gun and pair Of ruber
boots. If you can't spare them both, plese I'll
take the gun. l don't mind ef do get my fee.
