OGDEN, Nov, 10.-A glance at the vote
received by some OF the church politicians
for the county Offices at the recent cleo
tion shows which were favored by the
leaders OF the church and the influence
which this favor brought TO bear on the
voters OF the Republican party who are
members OF the dominant church.
The vote cast for Samuel G DYE. who
was elected county clerk is fair sam
pie OF the power of church interference
in politics in Weber county. Before his
nomination for the Office at the Repub-
ncan convention It had been publicly
noised around that he was the especial
ffavorite OF the church. Presto. his nom
passed out that the church desired his
election Bishop Wade was quoted as

WEBER COUNTY POLLS
AN INCREASED VOTE
Special Ia The Tribune.

OGDEN, Nov. l0.-After working in
cessantly all morning, the board OF
county commissioners, sitting as a can
vsssing board, completed the canvass of
the returns from the recent election.
The total number OF votes cast in
Weber county at the past election was
1868. against a total vote OF 1923 cast
at the last county election two years
ago. This shows an increase of 3645 votes
I'm the entire county. This large increase
is explained IN several ways. The chief
reason given for the increase Is the fact
that this being a presidential election,
moro interest was taken In the result
and consequently a larger vote was
polled. Another reason for the increased
vote is the growth In population OF
Weber county since 1906.

GayeIt Up.

A friend of the writer recently made
application for public appointment in
a small Scottish town, and, thinking
that his chances of success would be
greater by little judicious canvass
ing, he resolved to call upon few Of
the town councillors, in whose hands
the appointment lay. Of the civic dig
nitaries' position in private life he
knew nothing. Journeying to the town
in question, he hired a cab at the rail-
way station and requested the jehu
to take him to Councillor Bisset's, the
treasurer. The councillor was found
in his blacksmith's shop shoeing a
horse.
"Ill see somebody of more impor-
lance than this, anyhow" said the can
didate to himself, and, turning to the
driver, he said, "Drive me to Councillor
Maitland's Office"
The cabman thereupon drove him to
the local joiner's shop. This was
worse even than the smithy, and in
despair he calculated:
"Drive me to Councillor Gray's."
II am Councillor Gray, SIR" replied
the cabman.
The answer staggered the candidate.
He quietly paid his fare and disap-
peared, resolved to leave his fate in
their hands without prejudicing them
in any way in his favor. - London

When Life Mas Little Valued,

The 223 capital offenses which the
old English law recognized as punish
able by death did not keep down crime,
and with the abolition Of the death
penalty for all crimes but murder
crime in England, as well as every
where else all over the world where
the death penalty has been modified,
lessened markedly, notes the Boston
Traveller So. .
Edmond Burke said that he could in
his time obtain the assent Of the
house of commons to any bill that car
ried the death punishment. ~~., -
A mans life was not very valuable
in those strenuous days. If he scratch
ed his name on Westminster bridge,
if he wore wig or false mustache or
any other disguise on public road, if
he cut down a young tree, if he stole
property worth more than $1.25. If he
had been transported for crime and re-
turned day ahead Of the expiration
Of his term Of punishment, if he wrote
threatening letter, if he stole hide
from a tanners, for any and all of
these things and for 200 more than
these he was hanged by the neck until
he was dead.

Staqqered Webster.

In the somewhat famous case Of
Mrs. Bodgen's will, which was tried
in the Massachusetts supreme court
many years ago, Daniel Webster ap-
peared as counselor for the appellant.
Mrs. Greenough, wife of the Rev. Will
liam Greenough Of West Newton, was
a very self possessed witness. Not
withstanding Mr.. Webster's repeated
efforts to disconcert her she pursued
the even tenor of her way until Web
ster, becoming quite fearful of the re-
suit, arose, apparently in great agi-
tation, and, drawing out his large
snuffbox, thrust his thumb and finger
to the very bottom and, carrying a
deep pinch to both nostrils, drew it up
with gusto, and then, extracting from
his pocket very large handkerchief, he
blew his nose with report that rang
distinct and loud through the crowded
hall.
He then asked, "Mrs. Greenough, was
Mrs. BOdgen a neat WOman?'
II cannot give you full information
as to that, sir. She had one very dirty
trick" replied the Witness.
"What was that, MADAME"
"She took snuff"
