"6tT INTO the GAME"

The Republican county convention
will soon he here and considerable
activity is being manifested by party
managers and prospective candidates.
Headquarters will be established with
in. a. few days andwe understand that
a campaign chorus is being organized,
rallies planned and speeches arranged
for. That everything is working In
perfect harmony is an assured fact
and the coming convention will
probably be one of the most enthus-
iastic ever held in the county. There
seems to very excellent show for the
entire county ticket to be elected and
aspirants for different offices are not
hard to find. The one thing recess
airy is that the convention select men
who are thoroughly competent, have
a good record as men of business or
professional ability and men of good
character, and there is little doubt
that Cache county will give a glorious
Republican victory this fall. Every
man interested in his party should
be interested i'm this convention
and should so work and strive as
to make himself felt i'm the same.
If any man desires Office, he has a
right to that desire, but the voters
also have right to say whetheror not
that man shall have the Office. Be-
fore the convention and i'm the con
vention any man has a perfect right
to work for whom he pleases, but 1T
is no more than right that every man
should look at the matter impartially
and determine for himself whether
man thoroughly fit for the position
and i'm such accord with his party as
to make his election possible If NOM
mated. Let every man use every
honorable means to secure the nomin-
alton of his fayorite candidate, but
when the convention has done its
work and perchance his man has been
defeated let him take the defeat
gracefully, and worl; with equal
energy for the success of the ticket
nominated. This can rightly be ex-
pected of every honorable man. Let
no defeated ambitions, personal pre-
JUDGE or lapse of interest cause you
to do less than may reasonably be ex-
pected of you before and after the
convention.
And when the convention comes
along, above all things else, don't stay
at home and then kick If the men
nominated are not just to your liking.
One man has just as much voice as
another in the selection of men for
the ticket and he is not living up to
his privileges unless he exercises this
prerogative. Go and do what you can
to get what you want, and dent stay
at home and be knocker.

WHAT THEY SAY.

We have received a copy of the
Logan Republican, which appears to
be campaign paper to be issued once
a week until october LIST, or there
about, when it is to appear semi-week-
~. Until then it is to be devoted
chiefly to the support of the interests
of the Republican party, but after
that date will include local and other
news. 1t is neat looking paper,
clearly printed, and has evidence of
journalistic ability. The editor and
proprietor, N. Ralph Moore. has come
to Utah with the avowed intention of
being fair to the people of this State,
no matter what may be their religious
opinions. We hope he will stay by his
announcement, and If so, that he will
meet with the success that his venture
deserves. The competitors of the Lo-
gan Republican will have to brighten
up and keep-a-moving, in order to re-
tain their patronage and influence in
northern Utah.-Deseret News.

The challenge issued by Chairman
ROylance of the State Democracy for
"A series of debates between Hon.
Joseph Howell and the man nominal
ed by the Democratic State conyen-
tion at Provo today is great big
blum. The other side is counting on
the probability Of their nominee being
w. II. King, who is known as de-
batter of considerable ability, but
above all one of that kind that 'bluffs"
his audience by physical demonstra-
tions, sarcastic language and ''cute"
gibes. Mr.. Howell has never made
any great pretentions to being de-
batter and is man of very quiet, easy
going manners-not the man to meet
men of Kings style. Mr.. Howell Is a
worker-no spouter The bluff i'm
this instance will hardly go. How
would 1t do, though, for the State
Chairman to accept the challenge.
We have no doubt that he can till the
bill to any Democrats satisfaction
and is man worthy of his adversary.
There are not few men in the Re-
publican ranks ready and willing to
accept the challenge II given an OPP
portunity-but the opportunity win
not be given them. The challenge
was aimed directly ut Mr.. Howell
with the idea of placing that gentle
man in false light. The Democratic

The first number of The Logan
Republican is received, a tine-looking
and promising paper. 1t is handsome
ly printed, and when it is fairly under
way, it is sure to be tower of strength
to the party in Cache county. We
trust that the Republicans there will
sustain it with there voices and their
pockets, for nothing is so good for
party service as "A well-supported, able
paper. We are sure from the looks of
the first number that the editor of the
Republican is all right. and that he is
prepared and disposed to give the
people and the party Il paper well
worth their money.-Salt Lake Trib-

LOCAL POLITICAL SITUATION.

Judging from the number of men in
the Republican ranks that are DESTROYS
of Office, the chances for Republican
success at the coming election must be
very ilattering. Flies around the
bunghole of molasses barrel in sum-
mer time are no more plentiful than
the names now being suggested by the
G. o. =. voters, and II the list doesn't
contain men of such political capacity,
moral character and popularity as to
make any Democratic candidate look
like pewter quarter with hole In 1t,
then The Republican is sadly mistak-
en-. From the head of the ticket down
to the lowest in the scale, there are
numberless candidates all of whom de-
sire to get in on the great Republican
landslide that is going to strike Cache
this fall. It's enough to give the Dem
ocractic party an attack of vertigo,
and that the party managers are be-
coming alarmed over the situation, is
evidenced by the frequent conferences
on street corners, behind barns and in
upstairs rooms behind barred doors
The local Democracy would as mat
ter of course, like to see our State
ticket defeated, but their real anxiety
is that Cache with its spOiS shall be
saved to them and "by the gads, sab, +"
they are going to make the fight Of
their lives, sab"
FOR SENATOR.

Senatorial nomination, and among he
candidates mentioned are II. Bullen

not out making an active fight for the
nomination, but that if the cOnyen-

fore the convention. Mr.. Bullen'S
capability, and worth as party work
er is too well known to Cache county
Republicans to need further comment.
Jno. A. Ilendrickson's friends have
suggested him for this position, and
contend that his nomination would be
but Just recognition of faithful SER
vice. Mr.. Hendrickson is one of the
original Republicans of the valley and
has fought the good fight for years
when there was little hope and now
when prospects are good some recogni-
ton of his services should be rendered
him-so say those who are supporting
him. He represents large interests
here and elsewhere, his capability Is
unquestioned, and doubtless the gen.
tleman would make an ideal candidate.

another who wants to be Senator.

FOR SHERIFF.
Not few are 'hankeripg" after the
doubtful pleasure of dishing up soup

Marshall of the Iowa experiment sta
ton, have announced the result of their
recent swine feeding experiment. The
salient facts We're given yesterday, but
details are of interest to swine raiSers.
Incidentally the experimenters COM
ment on the Importance of the hog to
Iowa agriculture, asserting that the
farmers of Iowa annually receive more
money from the production of pork
than do the farmers of any other two
states in the union. Out of the total
number of hogs 'eceived at the Union
Stock Yards Chicago, Iowa furnishes
more than 80 per cent. Corn, being
extensively grown in Iowa, is naturally
the staple feed used. On most farms
it composes the major portion of the
ration. while on not a few it is the
sole ration fed, altho it is a recognized
fact that a mixed ration gives the best
results. This experiment was for the
purpose of determining the feeding
value of certain new products, especial
ly packing house products, such as
tankage, dried blood and beef meal.

there was less rain. In the west it is of
a good quality, as good as can be found
anywhere. but in the eastern section
very little of it would stand marketing.
