degree all over the city. Men and women
were placed on the delegations without
consulting their wishes in the matter. In
some Instances the men were out of the

FROM POLICE DEPARTMENT.

Republicans who run the machinery of
the party in Salt Lake have reached the
conclusion that William J. Lynch is 10
be their candidate for mayor. They are
satisfied that he is anxious to make the
race in spite Of his seeming reluctance.
They are also satisfied that he will hang
to his present position and fight the men
who appointed him from behind the
breastworks of the police department.
The chief will not say whether or not he
Is candidate. or whether or not he will
accept the nomination if il is rendered
him. This is understood 10 be his policy
of having the nomination forced upon
him.
Il am not candidate for the nomina-
tion for mayor in any sense of the term.
This is the way Chief Lynch answered
a question regarding his candidacy yes
terday afternoon. AT the same time he
gave the impression that should he see a
nomination bearing down upon him he
would have presence of mind enough 10
stand perfectly still and look uncOn-

BETS COME IRREGULARLY
Sugar Factory Management Shows
Signs of Anger.

Unless the sugar beet growers Of the
county comply with the requests Of the
Sugar company in regard to the delivery
Of beets, as arranged for in the different
contracts, il will be necessary for the To-
cal sugar factory to close down within
a short time. One of the representatives
of the Amalgamated Sugar company
stated yesterday that the farmers had IN
a number of instances paid no attention
to the notices sent them for the digging
of beets and consequently the factory is
running short. This will mean at least
the punching of the crops, which will
cause a rush later on in the season, and
which is already well advanced If it
becomes necessary for the sugar people
TO notify other growers to dig their beets
those previously notified will lose their
order of precedence.

the Democratic primaries will be Oct u.
the date of the Republican convention
and the convention to follow two days
later 1t is expected that a meeting Of
the Democratic general committee will
be called for Tuesday Oct. 3.
The only new development regarding
the probable Democratic candidates for
the city ticket is the announcement made
by George LOchhead Of his candidacy
for the Democratic cOuncilmanic nominal
ton from the Fifth ward
The residents of the east end of the
Fourth ward are likely to throw the solid
vote for some candidate from that Dor-
ton of the ward. Their claim for such
an action would be that they have been
neglected by the present administration.
