EXPERTS SAY PRIZES OFFERED
ARE WILL WORTH GREAT Effort
Mayor BranSord nspeCs the Handsome Buick and Declares
1t Is "Peach'-ReaI Estate Man Sees Real Value
Within His Reach-Work Done Early Accom-
pIiSheS Best Results.
"she,s a peach!, said Mayor John

shes a peachr said Mayor John s.
Bransford.
The mayor was not referring to
some charming young lady. He never
uses such expressions as applied to la
dies. His ejaculation was drawn forth
by an examination Of the beautiful
Buick Model ID" 1908 automobile.
which is capital prize No. ?, valued at
s.. 500 in The Herald's great voting
contest.
The mayor knows something about
automobiles, both as owner and driver
He drives his own car much of the
time. and is by way of being an auto
mobile expert, so that The Herald's
Buick has not only received official
but expert endorsement.
The mayors opinion of the car is
that of all who have examined it at the
establishment of the Consolidated Wa
gon & Machine company. 1t is well
worth seeing; more than well worth
owning.
c. H. CarlqUist, the well-known real
estate man, thinks enough of the home
offered as capital prize No. l to enter
the lists If that prize were not worth
while you would not find real estate
men, who know about such things, en-
tering the contest. Mr.. Carlquist is
not the only person interested in real
most attractive one, whether a person
wishes a home or something that will
sell at a handsome figure any time.
This is a real estate prize that will not
turn out to be a submerged lot in
quarter more likely to become the
packing house district than a fashion
able suburb, but is a most desirable
site in one of the very best residence
portions of Salt Lake City-Newhouse
Park, formerly Popperton-and will
have on it a modern house to be built
at a cost of $4,000.
These two prizes would be regarded
as more than sufficient in the ordinary
contest, but in this unprecedented
election they are only two of four
capital prizes in a list that contains,
in addition, sixteen grand prizes, each
doubly worth the effort required to get
it, and four special prizes, all of which
are more fully described elsewhere in
the paper.
Another feature that distinguishes
this contest from the ordinary affair
of its character is the absence of ''red
tape" in connection with the nomina-
lions and ballotipg. 1t is simply
question of nominating and voting,
without fuss, frills or feathers, which
means that effort spells success.
The policy of dividing The Herald's
territory into districts, giving residents
of each district equal opportunities
with residents of the other districts, is
already proving it's merit 1t has made
it possible for the resident of the small
community to enter the race on equal
terms with the resident OF the large
community, a condition that is not to
be found in the ordinary affair of the
kind.
The contest has been under way
three weeks now and will not close
until Nov. %. when all prizes will be
awarded to those who have polled the
most votes. Nominations will not close,
however, until the contest closes, but
the early votes count the most. This
point is fully explained under the cap
ton How to Vote appearing as part
of the display announcement regarding
the contest. 1t is of advantage to keep
