In each municipal ward Of Salt Lake
there were named strong Republican
candidates for the city council. The
personnel Of the candidates of each ward
is an indication of the integrity and
worth of the men the Republicans are
placing before the people as candidates
at the city election this fall.
The men named at last evenings ward
conventions are representative citizens
Of the city, and all of them are known
in every part of the city. Nearly eV-
eryone of them has been identified with
the progress of the city, and nearly ev-
eryone is making a sacrifice of personal
interests to serve the people.
In the first ward J, D. Murdoch is at
present a member of the city council
He was chosen two years ago by his
ward to represent it in the city council
and during his service as q member of
the council has devoted a great deal of
his time to the city's business and has
made an admirable record. Friends Of
Mr.. Murdoch are urging his candidacy
for mayor. Recognizing his ability, the
Citizens party placed him on their ticket
for the long term COunCilmanic nominal
ton by reclamation. J. D. McAllister
is d successful business man well known
to the people of his ward, and has many
friends throughout the city.
J. A Ekman, nominated in the Sec

prietor of a f1ourishing grocery and

Republican for years, and his nominal

from the Second ward, will go back to
a body with which he is thoroughly IA

the city council, and more recently chief
clerk of the house Of representatives

worker.
Lees and Yard.
From the Third ward the Republicans
will elect for the city council Charles NJ
Lees and William J. Yard, representa-
tive business men of the ward. Both
men are pledged, and are capable to
correct the abuses from which the Third
ward has been suffering from the
American city council. Both men will
be valuable additions to the city coun-
ell.
Rev. Francis BuTgette Short, whom
the people of the Fourth ward will unite
in electing to the city council, is a cler-
gyman who has won the admiration and
respect Of everyone in the city since he
has been in Salt Lake. DR.. Short has
taken an active interest i'm civic gov
eminent, and through his vigorous pull
pit addresses has done much to correct
many municipal evils. William T. At
kin, his running mate, is the manager
of the National Real Estate & Invest
ment company. He is a progressive
business man, and is a constant booster
for Salt Lake.
