I Earlier IN the year some Mormon

I into prison. The first presidency called
Senator Rawlins' attention 10 this fact.
/ He promptly wired the secretary of
state, who cabled the American ambas-

manded the release of the prisoners,
as requested by Senator Rawlins, and

great deal has been said about the

The Democratic state committee
makes the distinct claim that il pre-
sents a platform of principles more in
accord with the needs and desires OF
the people OF Utah than those of any
other party soliciting the suffrage OF
the citizens. Usually in politics this
should be sufficient to insure victory.
