SOME REPUBLICAN FIGURE;
UTHEY-LL have to come -te US
quoth Senator Tom.

.Gy II HEY-LL have 10 come -te US"
quoth Senator Tom.
Despite the strong feeling
among the voters Of both parties
against machine rule, Senator Kearns
and his henchmen are claiming that
their actions viii be endorsed by the
citizens. and that all Republicans viii
be forced 10 bow their necks to him.
They declare, with self-satisded smiles,
that they can't beat US"
The Kearns men prOfessed 20 laugh
yesterday at the movement to purify
the Republican party in Utah Their
hope lies in a party vote and in the
swallowing of all the actions of the
combination, because the ticket bears
the Republican stamp, placed there by
themselves They are already prepar-
ing TO chastise all Republicans who
dare to question their actions, placing
faith in their endorsement at the polls
Tuesday.
Following is the claim of the Repub-
Hcan state committee:
The ReDu blican ticket viii win
throughout the state of Utah. The
majority on the state ticket will be
$500. This estimate is based on fore
casts from all the counties in the
state I do not care to give the figures
by counties, but we will carry twenty
out of twenty-seven counties and will
have ferty=fve members of the legisla-
ture. an overwhelming. majority on
joint ballot
JAMES H. ANDERSON,
Republican State Chairman"
In Salt Lake county the Kearns sup
porters are equally confident Witness
the following:
Regarding the election next, Tues
day, I can say only that the Republic
cans win win by majority of I,500 10
1S0O. DENNIS EICHNOR,
Republican County Chairman"
While the Democrats are confident of
winning, they are INDUCING in no
boasting before the victory is won. Fol-
lowing is the statement of the state
chairman:
st have sufficient confidence in the
manhood and wOmanhood of the voters
of Utah to believe that they will give
the Democratic ticket a good majority
next Tuesday. 1t is the only course
they can take and be true TO the best
there is in them.
FRANK ]. CANSON.
Democratic State Chairman
The outlook in Salt Lake county, from
Democratic standpoint, was summed
up as follows by the chairman;
Warrum's Statement.
Eve are going to win next Tuesday.
not a Democratic victory so much as
victory Of the people over machine
rule in local politics. Our campaign
has been clean, carefully conducted
and as free from partisanism as il is
possible to conduct a campaign. We
rely upon the conscience and good
judgment Of the best element of the
community, and upon this reliance base
our hope of success. Public sentiment,
which changed the political complexion
of the bench in this county a few years
ago, is more pronounced in our favor
than 1t was then. We have a strong
ticket and the people know it. The
other ticket is weak. and it is going
to be hard work to force such a slate
down the threats of Republicans. I am
sure that boasting does not win cleo
tons, therefore I have no claims 20
make, except that I rely upon the good
sense and foresight Of Republicans and
the patriotism of Democrats to defeat
the machine ticket on Tuesday
NOBLE WARRUM,
Republican County Chairman.
