Likely to be Utah's Senator.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Dec. 5.-George
Sutherland, former congressman from
Utah, will undoubtedly succeed Thos.
Kearns in the United States senate.
Sutherland was born a Mormon but
calls himself a gentle. He is Shoots
candidate for the place and will get
it unless President Smith of the Nor
mon church selects some one else,
which is not likely.
Sutherland was a bitter opponent of
Smoot two years ago, but since that
time has joined the followers of the
apostle senator w. S. Mccormick,
millionaire, banker and a gentle. was
regarded as a strong candidate for the
senate until the past week, when he
abandoned the field, convinced that
Smoot would not permit his election.

there can be absolutely no doubt
about being able to prove an alibi.
From Marshalltown l went to Mel
bourne, a station on the Great West
dinner with my brother. 1 remained
there until I noticed in the newspa-
pers Saturday evening that l was be-
ing sought by the Omaha police
Chief Hardin of Des Moines wired
Chief Donahue that Schercliffe was
here, but as no orders have been re-
ceived to hold him the man has been
set at liberty. This morning he said:
This is the most cOwardly at
tempt that Dennison and his gang has
ever made to get rid of me. 1 can see
now that if 1 didn't have my alibi
cinched I would be goner if they
ever got me back in Omaha. 1 have
said repeatedly that I would help the
authorities bring Tom Dennison to
justice. 1 will do it if it costs me
my life. Dennison wants me out of
the way before he is finally dragged
back to Iowa to stand trial. He pre-
tends not to be afraid of the evidence
of a jailbird, but I'll make him
cringe."
Schedcliffe is quoted in all the local
papers this afternoon as saying that
he believes Dennison or members of
his gang threw the bomb at Thomas
home.
I've got men at work on the DEAL
too, he said, land hope soon to be
able to claim that $4,000 reward"
Many people here believe that Scher-
cliffe's hatred for Dennison amounts
to insanity. The ex-convicts own
statement is that he will get even
with Dennison in some way or other
Dennison's friends laugh at Scher-
cliffe's threats and say that the man
ought to be in an asylum.
