VISITING THE CITY

George y. Wood of Dayton, Ohio, ar
rived in this city Yesterday for the
purpose of visiting his brother, Thomas
J. Wood of Lillian. Ida, who is in the
j.. d. $. hospital, recovering from the
effects Of having his hands and feet
badly frozen on his ranch near Lii
han several weeks ago. Mr.. Wood is
registered at the Hotel Utah.
Because OF the flooded Missouri river
valley, Mr.. Wood was six days reach
ing Salt Lake from Chicago. and part
Of the distance was covered from Oma
ha bv walking several miles and riding
in the cabooses of freight trains.
Mr.. Wood. who is member of the
military staff Of Governor Judson Har.
mon OF Ohio, stated last night that
the political situation in Ohio showed
wide difference Of sentiment regard
ing the various candidates in the field
for the presidential nomination, al
state will be safely for Taft, as be
tween Taft and Roosevelt.
At the presidential preference prima-
ries to be held in Ohio next month,
Mr.. Wood said, Governor Harmon
will meet with strong opposition from
certain faction Of the Democratic
party, which favors Woodrow Wilson.
This faction, said Mr.. Wood is COM
posed largely of irreconcilable Bryan
men. Mr.. Wood would not venture
an opinion regarding the outcome of
the election in his state. providing Har-
mon is the Democratic nominee and
Taft is up for reelection, but stated
that in that event the attitude Of Colo
mel Roosevelt would have much bearing
on the result.
