movement all eyes are upon Utah coun-

their maintenance. A great pioneer
work has already been done by the cs-

bright future, for they have already be-
come extremely popular with people of
moderate means, who wish TO see their
sons and daughters fit themselves for
tha practical, every day affairs of life.

THE FACTS
Some Actions of Commissioners are
Explained-fi Have Always
Acted Wisely.

iLSiC arc II iCN 'iucSticho WHICH
at this time it might be well to ex-
plain for the benefit OF those who
are apt to be convinced by first
thought or who might be misled by
rumors that have been carried to
them by parties wishing to mis-
lead them. These questions are in
regard to the actions Of the county
commissioners.
The county commissioners are
the ones on whom the responsible
ties OF the county rest, and natnr-
ally they receive the blame for
everything that goes wrong in the
county. 1t is an old and true say
ing that "you can't please them
alp and this is more apparent In
the office OF the county commission
er than any other.
One OF the decisions of the eoun-
ty commissioners that has caused
considerable comment, especially
among the ranchers of Big Wood
river. was the change in the road
from Shoshone to the Cottonwoods.
By this change many acres OF good
irrigable land that has heretofore
been practically useless has been
placed under cultivation and the
result is that that this will in
crease the treasury of the county
and decrease the levy. While the
change in this road made the dis
tance to Shoshone by the new road
little longer than it has hereto
fore been still there was only one
action for the commissioners to-
take and they had to take it. 1t
will only be matter of time un-
til all the land north of ShOshone
is placed under cultivation and
wnen this is done all the roads will
have to be made on the section
lines. This is where the roads be-
long and the sooner they are plac-
ed there the better it will be for
these ranchers.
Another decision by the Board
that has caused some comment is
the granting of liquor license. A
great many people think that the
power Of the board of commission
ers is unlimited, that any question
or request that is brought before
them can be handled at their dis
cretion. This is not the case, how
ever, as the law says that the
board must or can do in these cases
and from that there is no alterna-
tive The adyisability of the
granting of a liquor license bytl em
at the last session has been ques-
toned by some who are ignorant OF
the true facts of the case. When
ever an application for license Is
made to the board the application
must be granted provided that the
proper bond has been secured and
the money for the license accom-
panies the request. If the party
to whom the license has been grant
ed does not conduct an orderly
house, or in any way conflicts with
the law the license may be revoked
The present board OF commission
ers has been a credit to the county
and the report OF the expert ac-
countant shows that the business
affairs OF the county have been
handled in very business-like
way. This is the true Republican
way of handling the affairs OF the
people and if the new board is com
posed Of Republicans the people OF
the county can feel assured that
the county affairs viii be handled
in straight, business-like man

CANNON CLUBS RISE

Of ''Uncle Joe." Ar ~..as
BY II. c. Stevens.

Washington, Aug. 27.-The "'Uncle
Joe'' Cannon boomers in Washington
are jubilant over the news from the
south regarding the way their move
ment for the establishment of Cannon
clubs is catching on. The first infor-
nation came from Greensboro, N. c.,
where an hour s canvass enrolled fifty
names in the roster Of club, and at
once a meeting was held for the organ
ization of the club at which the fol-
lowing resolution was unanimously
adopted: - -,
"Resolved, That we regard Joseph G..
Cannon as North Carolina g greatest
living son, the glory of his adopted
state, Illinois, the idol of the United
States! congress. and the Gladstone of
With this magnolia blossom as
starter, read before the Cannon club
meeting in the Ebbitt house here, the
boomers were well prepared for the
news that away down in the state Of
Texas similar club was being organ
had been called for a similar purpose
in Mississippi, and that SO far as North
Carolina was concerned, the beginning
had just been made.
The Greensboro meeting was held
within FIVE miles from the spot where
Uncle Joe was born, and was naturally
the one to lead off, but it was also
stated that every county in the state
was being raided by the Cannon men,
and that within comparatively short
time the whole state would be in line
for the speaker.
Sentiment goes a good deal farther
in the south than in the north, and it
is really astonishing how the idea of
| nominating q man who was born in the
south is taking hold. If they can It
have a southern democrat they seem to
be tickled to death to get republican
who once lived in the south when he
was a little barefooted boy.
If Uncle Joe should make trip thru
the south clad in that homespun suit
made for him by a North Carolina
woman he would get every delegate
from the old confederacy if the demo-
cratic organization had to turn to get
them for him. AS it is, it looks as if
the south would send pretty near a solid
phalanx for him to the republican ma
| tiOnal convention.
