POLITICAL POINTERS.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.

tnlS part OF the county give him |
great send-otf and say that Harvey
Will be the next commissioner
from the north. Mr.. Rawlins has for
a long time been a successful dairy
man and is of such turn personally
as to make firm friends of all who
come i'm contact with him. He is
credited as being man of sterling
worth, excellent character and man
In whom the taxpayers may have per-
feet confidence. He is familiar with
the county and the county's needs
and could and would dispense with
the county's money in the best inter-
est of the commonwealth. There Is
little doubt that he will show up con-
siderable strength when the battle is
pulled off.
Besides being an efficient and salts
factory postmaster, Mr.. Robert Muir
dock has the reputation of being one
of the surest and slickest politicians
in Cache county. Years of experience
in local politics has made him familiar
with the eccentricities of every voter,
and when at the head of the organiza-
tion in city and county he proved a
man of unlimited methods that were
always successful. Mr.. Murdoch would
like to take an active interest in the
present campaign, but Uncle Sam
says "keep out" and Of course he
keeps out.
Another candidate for Recorder is
announced in the person Of Mrs. Re-
becca Eames of the 3rd ward, Logan,
and If woman is to be accorded the
Recordership Mrs. Games will prob
ably be that woman. She is president
of the Relief Society of Cache Stake
and president of the Young Ladies'
Association of the Bird ward, and I'm
these positions has come into contact
with great numbers of voters all over
the county. Her friends say that in
her work she is careful and painstak-
ing and has proved one of the most
DODuldl 1lNNlhNlllS NllNNO tNNNNltt
have ever had. She has never held
public Office, never even been candi-
date, but she is said to be a woman of
business ability and possessing such
other qualities as to make her an ideal
Recorder if elected, and there seems
TO be little doubt that she would be
elected if nominated. She is popular
among her friends and has no enemies
and would probably draw the entire
vote of the women. The voters of the
county would do well to consider her
candidacy.
Mr.. James Meikle of Smithfield was
up to see us Saturday and gave us the
authority to state that he is not after
any nomination at this time--and this
is not an ultimatum of the w. H.
King type. Mr.. Meikle means exactly
what he sayS--he is not seeking any
recognition. However he is taking q
very active interest i'm r. II. Merrill's
| behalf and wants that man nominated
for State Senator. Mr.. Meikle be
lieves that he is the best man for the
place, and is going to do all that h,
can to secure the nomination for him
He now says that Joseph Richardson
Is a candidate for assessor, rathe
| than for representative.
VIM. Hope of Richmond should b,
exhibited as curiOcity. He was ON,
of the first Republicans in the county
has served on committees times with
out number, has invariably been sen
as delegate to every convention dur
ing the history of the party, has beef
active in everything calculated Il
benefit the party, and yet at this tim
is not a candidate for either county o
State Office. He is a quiet, cOnserva
tive gentleman who keeps still ant
saws wood and is not barking up ever,
i tree he comes across. If the count,
were filled with men who were as loya
and active as he has ever been Their
could be no doubt of "A Republican
victory this fall.
II Hyrum friends are booming Pres
| w. c. Parkinson of the Hyrum Stalk
for treasurer. He is an eXcellen
business man of undoubted integrit
and honesty and Of such capability Il
| a political worker that the claims q
| his friends will count for great deal
Mr.. Parkinson enjoys the respect am
confidence of his neighbors and is wei
known over the county. Just at pre-
sent it seems that Mr.. Parkinson Ia
no rival for this nomination with tn
exception of II. A. Petersen, and jus
at present Hans is not making an
terrific effort to land the plum.
