with the Cullen hotel and Headquarters
OF the committee will be opened there
on Monday morning and all Will be well
come The mass State convention Will
be held on September 81 and the county
committee on Saturday September 22,
in the Salt Lake Theater.
The church Republicans will open
their county headquarters In the Atlas
block on the same floor with the church
Democrats. This Will save Apostle
Smoot considerable work. as he can call
his chiefs from both parties in confer
ence without trouble, and as the State
committee OF the church Republicans will
have their headquarters in the D. f.
Walker block. adjoining It. will be real
handy for the apostolic boss. The church
Republican primaries are slated for next
Friday night.
The church Democrats Will hold their
convention on October 4. Smoot has not
yet decided upon the slate for this
crowd, but will. no doubt, have 1t ready
toward the close of the week.
John @. Maclray, County Commissioner,
has struck snag In so far as his ex-
pense account at the public crib is con-
cerned, Under the law the legitimate eI-
pense account at tho public crib is con-
shall not exceed $500 per annum. TO be
paid by the county upon bills or vouchers
properly itemized and sworn to. Salt
Lake County Commissioners never have
anything due them on this account when
the year is up. Commissioner Mackay Is
an expensive luxury. however Up to the
first OF August he had drawn upon his
expense account for the present year
1922 90. This left him $3.50 to last the
remaining five months. But he must
have overlooked his figures. for his latest
voucher covered by a warrant Of the
same number reads as follows:
August, 1905. invoice attached, l. 8. 4. 6.
S. 9, TO- IL. 13, 10, 16, is, 20, 22 20. 81, 20, 30

and buggy in coming from Granger to
city TO attend sessions of the board at
an expense Of $3.50 per trip.
August "a. horse and buggy. Seven
teenth South street TO Big Cottonwood
on official business for county.
This would mean s47. 90 for trips alone,
not counting the Big Cottonwood trip.
Some cruel person however, who had
Mr.. Mackay's expense account IN hand
used an eraser on the voucher and cut Il
to $3.50. AS Mr.. Mackay's term Of Of
hce runs until December 81 next, he will
have TO figure out q new schedule in or
der to get from Granger to Salt Lake
during the four months at the expense of
the county 1t is somewhat tough too,
in view that campaign is on and the
Smootites are making heavy assessments
on county officials,
Down In Provo II is said that Col Ed
Loose is about 20 break away from the
push" He can't see any profit, either
now or in the future, In editing the pay
roll of the Smoot organ. Even II the
nomination for State Senator should be
given him, the money coming from that
source will not even pay the tithing on
the payroll. The payroll is also wor-
rytng Apostle Smoot and it Is common
talk In Provo that the long green is
getting scarce.
The Woman's American club will meet
with Mrs. Burmeister, 149 street. Mon
day, September 10, at 2:3O p. m. A large
attendance Of American ladies is desired.
-Four candidates are now In the field
for the County Attorneyshp on the
Smootite Republican ticket. They are
w. L. Dunn. G. Stanley Price. Col M
NJ Kaishn and Willard Hanson. The
latter is the slate candidate for the
Smootites and IS or was supposed to
have cinch. But the three other asn,r9
ants declare they Will give him a run for
their money. But like Morse for Su-
prenne Judge and Howell for Congress-
the "hoss's eye Is set" and Hanson will
be named. He is too valuable a man
LOT Inc omootites. They want him In
the attorneys ofhce as they want Emery
In the Sherff's office. and the slate
srnashers can kick all they want, but n
Will be without avail.

publican State committee made the an

is said, are little leary of the gentle

hopes.
Word comes from Summit county that
tne church Republican convention In
tnat county to select delegates to the
State convention will be held September
10 at Coalville. Forty-niue delegates Will
be chosen.
Joe Smith, the sheepman, who has ham
kered after the sheri1's office so many
years that the mind of the we'll versed
politician runs not to the contrary, will
In all probability be candidate for tho
Church Republican nomination again this
fall. 1t Ia generally understood that c.
