ESTIMATE OF REED sMooT.
Mark sullivan Of Golfers Weekly
Pays Tribute to Utah Senator.

Mark sullivan, editorial writer for
Golfers Weekly who arrived in salt
Lake yesterday and Is registered at the
Knutsford, stated this morning that the
national weekly does not look upon
Senator Reed Smoot as an undesirable
legislator nor is he numbered IN any
way with the clique which the Collier
interests consider in the light of a
batricade to progressive measures in
the nations legislative department. Mr..
Sullivan said that he considered Smoot
sincere and honest man who stands
for progress In the broader sense.
Mr.. Sullivan believes that the indie
pendent vote throughout the United
States at the coming election is a new
factcr to be reckoned with in national
politics and will lead to many surprises
at the coming election. The develop
ment Of the independent vote says he.
is due In a large measure to the ever
increasing distance of the partisan lines
of the Civil war and to the new politi-
cal spirit inaugurated into the body
of the polity by Roosevelt.
5rIe believes that TAFT viii carry the
next election but that there Is the mere
possibility that Bryan might be elected.
This deduction as to the outcome of
the Presidential campaign Is based up
on the probability that Taft will carry
New York.

ing the replacing at no distant day,
of the present lines of Michigan cedar
poles. 1t is found that in time, the
poles decay at soil level due to the al
ternating OF wetting and drying. so
that they fall over. The idea now IS
to either use steel poles. such as the
Utah Light G. Railway company is US

set new cedar poles in cement bases
which project six inches above the

prolong the life of the pole indefinitely.

NO DECISION ON
Taft ELECTORS
Supreme Court Not Ready to
Pass Upon the Question
This Morning.
!. B. cRITcHLoW's ARGUMENT
Claims That An Anarchistic Ticket
Could Include Candidates on
Other Tickets IL So Desired

At 10 o'clock this morning 1t was un-
derstood that the supreme court "
Utah would hand down decision as 10
whether Taft electors named by the
Republican state convention would DC
forced to allow their names to be used
on another ticket, from when thes
were anxious to resign.
And at 10 o'clock this morning there
were gathered in the supreme court
rooms many politicians anxious TO near
the result But there was none yet
ready to announce, and the matter was
passed over, possibly TO come up inns
afternoon, tomorrow morning or altei
noon, or at II still later date me only
authority that could be secured on the
case was a hazard from the supreme
court clerk as to when the matter
would be taken up.
Arguments in the case We're hearu
Yesterday before tho court, ana IL WAS
taken under advisement. t reached
ythe court in the form Of lnandanus
proceedings. Henry Cohen, Thomas
SEW, and Lafayette Holbrook, Repub-
lican electors, had filed with the secre-
tary Of state their designations from
tbs Taft Liberal ticket. The secretary
of-state accepted the designations,
whereupon writ of mandamus was
sought, citing the secretary to show
cause why he should not allow the
names to remain on the TAFT Liberal
ticket. Arguments on the return of the
writ after demurrer had been entered
by the state. resulted In the presenta-
ton Of the case for the state by Sena-
tor Sutherland and Fl. G. Edwards, and
for the Taft-Liberal, sympathizcrs by
e. b. Critchlow and Z. A. Walton.
Mr.. Critchlow maiui tanned that these
candidates, being the candidates of one
faction. could not refuse to receive the
votes of another faction. since anyone
appealing for votes must necessarily
accept all that are offered. An an
archistic ticket. even. he maintained in
answer to a question from Judge Frick,
other ticket, and he would be'powerless
way of determining what his constitu-
ents wished. No matter how many
nominations q candidate got, he argued.
his only alternative was to accept them
all or none.
Senator Sutherland argued for a sim
pie ballot, declaring that all decisions
were in line with this thought, and that
the privilege extended candidate of
resigning from q ticket UP to IL days
before an election was intended to
prevent the use OF their names on tick
cts whose purposes were alien TO the
spirit In which they would serve.
Messrs. Walton and Edwards closed
the arguments for the two sides, after
which q recess was declared. The de-
csion is regarded as Important as 1t
will probably have q serious effect on
the straight voting" Of the machines
