FEELING THE PUBLIC PULSE
Congressman Howell in Ogden Try
ing to Settle the Fight
for Postmaster.

Congressman Joseph Howell came down
from Logan yesterday and spent Sunday
with his relatives i'll this city. During the
day he made a trip to Ogden canyon.
When seen at the Read last evening and
questioned regarding the Ogden postoffice
he said that mis- visit here was purely
social one, but admitted later that he
would make an effort to bring the Ogden
politicians together upon one candidate.
He said that there was no particular hur
~ in making the selection, as he could
not see that the people of Ogden were
suffering to any extent on account of the
delay. He said that the three candidates
p. II. Davis, d. w. Ellis and William
Glasmann-each had many supporters,
and argued that, while the administration
OF Mr.. Davis, the present incumbent, had
been successful to the VictOrS belong
the SpOils'' and that those who had been
active in Weber county politics would
have to be taken care of. He insisted
that Mr.. Glasmann had done much for the
Republican party, and that the recogni-
ton he had gained from the people by
being elected mayor for two terms and
also to the state legislature was an in
dorsement that was hard to overthrow.
As TO Mr.. Ellis candidacy, he said but
little He acknowledged, however, that
Mr.. Ellis record in public office was a
good one, and that he and Mr.. Davis were
about on a par as regards activity in
politics. Mr.. Howell Will go to Salt Lake
this morning and return to Ogden to-
morrow, when he VIII meet with large
number of local politicians representing
the various candidates. In this way he
expects to investigate some of the charges
which have been made, and if these prove
to be unfounded he will then call the
party leaders together and attempt a rec
OnciliatiOn. Mr.. Howell does not share
in the belief that Republicanism in Weber
county is in such Il state that it can be
shattered by the appointment of any Of
the men who are in the race. ''UnfOrtu-
nately," he said, there are not five post
offices in Ogden city.'

UNABLE TO HELP HIMSELF
Aged Ogden Citizen Falls Into Greek
While Intoxicated and Is
Drowned.

In a creek four feet wide and containing
eighteen inches of water the body of P.
h. thurman, aged So. a resident of Ogden
for many years, was found shortly after
o clock yesterday morning. The old man
is supposed to have fallen into the creek
some time during the night and, being
unable to help himself was drowned The
creek runs close to the barn on the prop
erty owned by thurman at 260 Second
street
Some time Saturday afternoon Bjurman
left the house apparently in a happy
frame of mind, and during the day and
evening drank considerable at various Sa-
looms. In fact, he became intoxicated so
that two men assisted him to his home
about o o'clock in the morning. This was
the last seen of the old man alive 1t
appears that since Bjurman lost his wife
some years ago, he agreed with c. ..
lSaksOn that the latter might occupy the
front portion of the house, permitting the
old man to live in the rear. The property
was to be decided to Isakson providing he
would take care of Bjurman as long as he
lived. Yesterday morning Mr.. IsakSOn told
his l2-year-old son TO go to the barn and
do the chores. In crossing the stream
which flows between the house and the
barn the lad saw what proved to be the
BODY OF BJurman lying in the creek near
small bridge. The boy informed his ia
Their and Police Officer Robert Burke of
Five Points was notified. Upon the Off
GERS arrival the BODY was taken from
the water and later removed to the Lar
kin undertaking parlors, where it will be
prepared for burial. The corpse had the
appearance of having been in the water
for some hours as it was quite badly dis
colOred and swollen. The suppOstiOn is
that after the two friends of thurman
had assisted him home and left him there
he left the house and, in wandering about,
fell into tie stream. The authorities are
endeavoring to locate the two men who
took Bjurman home in order that their
testimony may be used in the inquest
which will be held this morning Foul
play is not suspected. thurman was a ma
tive of Stockholm. Sweden, and has re-
sided in Ogden for more than eighteen
wears

tion of peiagic sealing on the basis of the
