SHOOTS CONTROL OF CACHE.
Especial to The Herald. }

Logan. Sept 20-After much bargaining
and trading. the Smoot machine has
gained at least temporary control of the
Republican organization of this county
and the indications point strongly to the
fact that only men who are favorable to
the machine or those with whom the ma
chine has made terms, will be put upon
the county ticket.
Republicans who relied upon the widely
prevalent opposition to Smoot TO enable
them TO get into power are now feeling
very sorry that they ever banked upon
a thing so unsubStantial, for such of them
as aspired to office are now left to choose
one of two courses-either withdraw very
humbly or stay in the race and get
smashed with the machine.
