Unless all signs and omens relied
upon by political astrologists to foIe-
toll coming events go wrong. the above
ticket will ho named by the mass con-
vontion of the Democratic party at
labor hall tonight There will be but
few variations from any % the names
mentioned Tor the respective places,
and in an likelihood the ticket viii go
through as shown
The Democrats are feeling consldara-
bly, elated over what they consider
prospect 20 score a victory AZ the com
1 ing election. People are tired. they ar
! gue. OF tho misrule Of the American"
/ regime. and want a change With gooi
men for the places they consider they
/ have at least fighting chance 10 get
some, and perhaps ALL OF their men
elected on Nov. 2.
The concensus Of opinion among lead
| ing Democrats today was that the CON
vention would arise as one man and BY
reclamation place in nomination FOR
| mayor OF the city the name OF John
| Dern. There seemed only one opinion.
! too, as TO Mr.. Dern's accepting the
nomination II il came to him as the
| choice OF his narty And not only DEM
ocrats have been heard TO express ap-
I proval Of the naming OF Mr.. Dern for
mayor, but prominent Republicans have
/ also stated that they would support Mr.
/ Dern should he be named for mayor
/ on any ticket whatsoever There is
strong likelihood. also. that the city
/ convention Of the Citizens movement
/ 10 be held In the Salt Lake Theater to-
/ morrow night, may endorse the nom
| ination OF John Dern for mayor. should
| the Democrats place him at the head OF
| their ticket. and he VIII accept The
nomination Of Mr.. bern seems 10 find a
! responsive chord among the better
/ class of citizens Of an parties with
/ the feeling that ia view OF his strong
| qualities Of sterling citizenship. outside
| OF his party leanings Mr.. DeIn would
/ make a mayor of the people. and for
! the people, standing for justice and
| right regardless Of political affiliations.
OTHERS TO BE NAMED.

| lican. For auditor, William Bateman.
| a business man connected with a local
building association. Will In all prOba-
/ biity be named. Judge c. g. Dey. ID
we'll known local attorney, may be-
the choice OF the convention. although
! j. W. Stringfelow. a rising young
/ attorney or this city Is also mentioned
/ For treasurer there seems TO be No
| difference OF opinion on the selection %
/ Joseph r.. Came
For the council In the First. william
| Naylor and stephen Hayes are men
I toned as the probable nominees. with
| a possibility that A. H. Woolley may
/ be a strong factor In the race
In the Second there seems 10 be no
! division a. TO the nomination OF George
| Burbidge. and with sentiment some
| what divided between Henry Wallace
and Bert Margetts for the second nom
/ nation.
POWERS SPOKEN OF.
In the Fourth IL Is conceded that the
nominees viii bee Orlando W Powers
and Byron Groo.
IN tho FIfth. Richard =. Morris seems
sure OF the nomination James VI.
| Movie seems 10 bc strong In the run
ming for the second nomination. with
the name OF former Councilman Mar
/ tin ~. Mulyey mentioned as one OF tAe
probabilities for tho district The fact
| that Mr. MulVcya term in the council
WAS served nv "a member Of the
American 80 called party seems 10
have no effect upOn those who claim
| that be- rightfully belongs undcr the
! democratic banner In their efforts 90
place him In the Geld as "a candidute
| for councilman.
