Party Leaders Still Talking Of Mr.
SutherIand's Withdrawal.
WHArWILL THE EFFECT BEY
General Regret In Republican Camp
That lie 10 out Of the Race
About the senate rsbip,

Notwithstanding the fact that It IL
early in the season-months before elec
ton time, and that people are beginning
to betake themselves to the cool anC
shady hooks OF mountain resorts, the
political caldron is simmerlng hotly and
many are the booms that are being
launched
The most important political develop.
ment during the week was the formal
announcement made by Congressman
Sutherland that he was out of the race
so far as being his own successor was
concerned. Generally speaking there is
regret In the Republican camp on this
account. 1t was conceded both within
and without the party that ne has made
a good representative and that he would
make strong candidate in the coming
campaign, and 1t was hoped by the
party leaders that he would make the
race, But II is a certainty that he VIII
not; and Il Ii almost as certain that he
Will be In the midst OF the senatorial
fray reaching for the tuga worn by Nj.
Rawlins, Democrat. There Is much
speculation as 20 the effect Mr. Suther-
lands withdrawal will have on his own
future political aspirations and on those
Of the men who will be candidates for
the place that he Is to vacate and for
the more desirable one Of United States
senator.
While there are not a few who freely
say that Mr.. Sutherland has made a
political mistake there are others who
take the position that he has acted
wisely and we'll Among this latter
class is Atty. Daniel Harrington, who
Is probably the most active congress
slonal candidate on the Republican side.
He thinks Mr.. Sutherland has done all
that he could consistently be asked to
do and that the friends OF the other
candidates VIII appreciate the fact that
he got out Of their way early. There
has been some little talk about "Roose-
veting" Mr.. Sutherland through the
convention just as was done at Provo
two years ago but that has been pretty
well dlssipated by the practical an
nouncement from Mr.. Sutherland that
he will not stand for it and that when
he said he was out he meant Il.
There is something more than an in
tlmation from the north that State
Senator Howell Of Cache will come
down to the convention with a strong
delegation back " him II IL confident
~ affirmed that there Will be a number
OF such delegations from the northern
part Of Utah and that he will have d
larger vote on the first ballot than any
other candidate,
ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE.
Not all Of the animation Is among the
Republicans. Democrats, too, are on
the alert and talking In a more conf
dent tone than two years ago. 1t IL a
little early, they say, who will be pitted
against the Republican nominee for tue
lower house Of the national legislature
but there seems TO be well defined
idea in some parts that Judge William
II. King. who has made the race on
divers occasions with varying success,
Will be put TO the fore for that purpose
again, though the name OF Judge Pow
ers is now. and again heard upon the
