The race for city recorder is as- suming a shape of unusual interest to those who look on city politics. At one time there were four aspirants For that position but as Judge Baber the present incumbent gained strength ono, after another dropped from the lists until only Ludlow Elmore Is left to oppose him
 That opposition to Judge Baber is taking on new life is evidenced by rumors of the candidacy of Alderman Lowe. It is said that MT. Lowe has iintfmated his willingness to accept the position if elected and he Is said to be the dark horse" that the politi- cans have been grooming for the job.
 Ludlow Fillmore. despite all rumors to the contrary, is still in the race for recorder and is confident of winning Mir. Elmore in discussing his candidacy yesterday said:

 Dr. Saul was asked concerning re- ported defections from the ranks of supporters of the saul ordinance ' He said: The Advertiser seems to know more about that than I lo." When asked if Alderman Perry, here tofore supposed to be a supporter of the ordinance, had not informed him yesterday that he could not vote to override the Mayors veto of the measures. pr. Saul said. 'T am not being interviewed" and declined to further discuss the subject
 Alderman Moritz said yesterday that the Saul ordinance is beaten beyond shadow of doubt. He said
 We have cinched six votes and that insures the defeat of the measure but there are two members of the council who will take their "cue" from Mayor elect Gunter and his position Is well known. Such being the case we nave every reason to count their votes In support of the veto. There is but one thing the friends of the Saul ordinance may do and that is adopt dilatory tactics and adjourn the regular meet ings of the council from time to time hoping to secure the votes necessary to over ride the mayors veto but tf they find this impossible they still have much to gain by such tactics since If two weeks are permitted to pass without consideration of the measure 1t dies naturally and without the oh- viously unpleasant necessity of its friends going on record as supporting it over the Mayors veto"
 Mayor elect Gaston Gunter was asked yesterday if he thought the measure would become a law in spite of the veto but he declined to further discuss the matter and refused to talk of any phase of the city political sit uation.

DESERT HORSES HELD
UP FOR INSPECT ION

Forty-three head of desert horses
shipped from Battle Mountain, Nevada,
were detained in ogden yesterday by
Sheriff Wilson. he being advised that
a part of the horses had escaped the
inspection of the state officers there
and also that they had been stolen
from bunch of "culls."
According to the advices received by
Sheriff Wilson a man by the name or
Roache in making a deal for car
load of ponies at Battle Mountain the
other day cut out nine head that he
said he did not want The animals
were set aside. and, consequently not
inspected by the state official; but It
appears that when Roache loaded his
stock he forgot to leave the "culls" be-
hind and they were shipped with the
balance OF the bunch.
When the shipment was intercept
ed at Ogden, Mr.. Roache was not TO
he found and the man In charge know
nothing OF the shipment, except that
he had agreed to attend to the feeding
and watering of the animals here and
then journey on with them to Mis-
souri. their destination. Instead OF
holding the horses here the officers
concluded to let them move on to their
destination where il is expected the
fellow claiming the animals Will make
an appearance and at which time ne
will undoubtedly be arrested. The
horses were OF a very inferior quality.

why the swiftest racing known to
the turfmen should not be given on
the Ogden track

their bits for a go" on the Ogden
track, and every possible effort is be-
ing put forth to give them an oppor-

already upon the grounds and appll-
cations for quarters for the racers
OF the west are just now keeping the
wires hot The promoters OF the

end TO find stalls for all the horses
that are seeking an opportunity to
race hero.
Accommodations for something like
three hundred racers have already
been made. and the managers, Murray
and McIver, are now striving hard TO
find place for the many other horses
that are being listed for the events

made for them all.

SUGAR FACTORY To
CLOSE FOR FEW DAYS

The Ogden Sugar factory has
been forced to suspend its
osmosing operations for week
or more. owing TO the shutting off
of the water In the West Weber ca
nal 1t Is from this source that the
entire supply of water for various fac
tory uses is obtained and, although
the osmosing is only partially finished
for the season, It was deemed advls-
able to set about cleaning the canal
at once for the approaching irrigating
season.
The annual cleaning of the canal
necessitates the shutting off OF the en-
tire head of water to permit the cut
ting of grass and weeds as well as
other accumulationS which have gath
cred during the winter and fall. The
job is usually completed In a weeks
time, as a large force Of men is put
to work Immediately in order that
the sugar plant Will not be dlscommod
cd longer than is absolutely neces-
sary
Superintendent L. r. Eccles stated
yesterday that about 100000 pounds
of sugar had been produced by the
osmosing plant since the work began
two months or so ago. and that about
two-thirds of the molasses to be run
through was still on hand 1t is esti
mated that about go days more will
be consumed in completing the sea-
sons run, especially If there Is any
double-osmosing to be done.
The local factor as we'll as those at
Lewiston and Logan are entirely out
of sugar pulp; in fact. the plants ran
short of that commodity some time
ago. The Ogden factory worked over
some $4,000 tons OF beets which should
have produced about 20 per cent that
weight OF pulp. The figures. however.
ran considerably short this year, only
about $4,000 tons being produced.
