big BRYAN CLUB
BEING FORMED
Young Men of Salt Lake Plan
ming to Organize Society for
the National Campaign.
TO MEET THIS AFTERNOON
COMMITTEE is COMPLETING AR
RANGEMENTS.
TO MEET THIS AFTERNOON

AT an Informal meeting yesterday after
noon several young men of the Democratic
party decided 10 father a movement
ganizing Bryan club In Salt Lake City.
y committee was selected to complete the
arrangements for forming the >organiza-
tion. and to call the first meeting This
committee consists of John F. Tobin VIII
liam ID. Ray, William c. Leary and
Athol Raylins- 1t will meet this afternoon
In the law offices Of Mr.. Ray and Mr..
Rawlins in the Atlas block to make the
preliminary arrangements for the organ
ization.
The proposed club will have for its pur-
pose the assisting OF the national commit
tee IN its campaign in Utah. The work OF
the club during the campaign will be con-
fined to the national ticket and no active
part will be taken in local politics by the
organization 4 whole. IT is expected
that among its members will be a large
number OF persons who, although Demo-
Gratis in national politics. have differences
~ opinion with reference to the local sit
uation- With the local issues. however
the club will have nothing to do. 1t will
be primarily and essentially a Bryan club
Already large number of Democrats
In the county have expressed the wish
that such an organization might be
formed and a membership of more than
one thousand in the club is not at all i'm
probable One of the objects of the club
will be to form harmonious connections
with every Bryan club in the state: to as
tsist those already organized In arranging
for speakers on national issues in the
various localities and to aid in the form
ing of clubs in counties where such Or
ganiZa tons do not exist.
The new club will probably hold its first
meeting in a few days, at which time a
permanent organization will be effected
Those interested in the movement to form
this club should notify some member Of
this committee and they will be person.
ally advised as TO the time and place of
the first meeting of the club. The COM
mittee on organization will be glad to re-
ceive suggestions relative to the forming
of the club from any Democrat in the
state.
Probably the first active participation
IN the national campaign by the new club
will be at the ratification meeting to be
held by the Women's Democratic club at
Saltair on next Thursday. By that time
the organization of the Bryan club will
have been perfected and its members will
be expected to assist materially In MAX
ing the gathering at Saitair great sue
cess.
The movement throughout the state to
organize Bryan clubs Is meeting with ap-
prevail everywhere. Already half dozen
