BOW TO THE MACHINE.
Republicans of Sanpete County Are
Won Over by the Prospects
of a Dutch Lunch.

Ephraim. May 2-The Republican party
of Sanpete county held its county con-
Vention here yesterday for the purpose
of reorganizing its county central COM
mittee and of selecting delegates TO the
state convention to be held in Salt Lake
City May 9TH. The affair was very quiet
and harmonious. The miniOns of the fed
eral bunch were IN complete control.
Never before has a convention in this
county been so completely under the con-
troll OF the machine. One or two men
endeaVored to express some manly oppo-
sition to the Instructions to the delegates
to vote for Utah's congressional deleGa-
ton as delegates from the state to the
national convention. The opposition was
soon squelched by a few political aspi-
rants and w. ID. Candland, who we're anX-
ious TO curry favor by showing their devO-
ton to the SmOOt machine,
Hereafter no Republican with any aspi-
to raise his voice against the will of the
machine and Sanpete county Republicans
are committed to the interests of the
apostle senator.
Herbert +. Smytb of Manti, was elected
as the county chairman and one commit
teeman from each precinct with a secre-
tary to be chosen by the chairman COM
prise the county central committee.
Attorney Ephraim Hanson of this city.
acted as the chairman of the convention
and Herbert +. Smyth and +. d. Ander-
son as secretary and assistant secretary,
respectively.
After the convention an elegant Dutch
lunch was prepared for the delegates in
the convention hall, with which every one
expressed themselves highly pleased.

success of the government in the latter

from all over the country were tested
in the steam engine and gas engine in
order to determine their efficiency. Fifty
six different bituminOus Goals were test
ed in the steam boiler and engine and

show that on an average it took nearly
three times as much coal TO produce
horse power in the steam engine as in
the gas engine. The actual figures for
the average from ali Goals were. Isl

horse power for an hour in the gas en-
