OF SHEEP
DOGS
REMARKABLE ABILITY OF DOGS
Is TO BE SHOWN.
Rare Treat for Shcepmen
and Others,

usual features OF the mid-winter sheep
show, which is to be given In Ogden
during the time OF the Wool Growers
National convention in the early part
OF January. will be the exhibition of
sheep dogs.
Prizes are offered for the besr
Scotch collies, Highland bearded
Scotch shepherd and for the best
trained sheep dog. To determine su-
periority In the latter instance. herd
of sheep will be placed upon the city
hall square and the dogs will be sent
out to take care OF them 1t will be q
real exhibition of the work that dog
has to do on the range in taking care
of the nocks.
il Is said by the managers of the
affair that some OF the best sheep
dogs OF the world will be exhibited
here. Applications from various sec.
tionS OF the country for the privilege
OF showing dogs have been received.
and arrangements are being made for
the accommodation of the dogs. Plans
are also being laid for the most ef.
fective way TO place the dogs on cN-
hibition,
A dog from the state university OF
Wyoming, which is considered one of
the most remarkable sheep dogs In

WHY DID THE BREWERLTES
MAKE WATER THE ISSUE?

Third, 10 win 1t was absolutely nee
cssery that Glasmann's previous rec

Issue. for the city books show that

ury when he left the once. and also
made more city Improvements than
any other mayor OF Ogden
Well said lady. Everybody adj
mits Glasmann was the best mayor
Ogden has had for many years"
Sure, But the -Brewerites do not
want that discussed. They want to
point out that Glasmann did not and
Brewer did buy the watcrworks, and
that Is the only thing the Brewerites
want ns an Issue this campaign"
But how do you account for the
false waterworks report7"
THAT is just what / was coming TO.
The Brewerites had no idea Glasmann
would look into that. and then again
they believed that they could fool the
public on mass of figures which at
best are hard 10 understand. But
Giasmann caught them all right

Among the thinking men and wom-
on OF ogden. those who look into the
future by studying the past, the great
question TO be considered is this.
why did the Brewer people insist on
making the waierworks an issue?'
One man said, THE Brewer people
wanted to mako the purchase OF The
waterworks the issue. and not the six
months management since the pur-
chase
We'll, why ?" was asked. The wa
terworks system Is bought 1t can
never be sold again. The city must
own 1t forever SO why make 1t the
only issue of the campaign"
THAT is easy 10 answer.
First. Brewer had nothing else to
make campaign on that would give
him even a chance.
Second. II was absolutely neces-
sary for Brewer to keep the Issue
away from his record on the gambling
and liquor question. because he ran
the most wide-open town Ogden ever
had. although just before election he
shut down the gambling houses and
promised TO enforce the new liquor
law he approved, which allows the

having the work in hand, that the
work Will be completed within the
next thirty days
The new Utahna theater will be

little $1,000 cottage on Adams avenue
