Andy Smith, Candidate in
Opposition to Sharp, AS
signed to Jail Duty.
"BUNCH" IN QUANDARY
Deputies Feel That
Sharp Should Not Have
Life Term.

Andrew Smith, Jr., deputy sheriff
and candidate for sheriff, is CONSIDER
ably wroth over the treatment he is
receiving at the hands of Sheriff Jo-
seph c.. Sharp, candidate for third
term as sheriff of Salt Lake county.
Deputy Sheriff Smith was ignored by
the federal bunch. or the Calllster wing
of it, which prepared the county slate,
and Sharp was aguin placed on the Oh
fetal slate which the bunch will try
to force on the Republican county con-
vention.
On February % last Deputy Sheriff
Smith announced to his chief that he
was II candidate for sheriff. lie said
he reached his decision to enter tho
race after large number Of friends had
come to him and urged him to be can
didate. Sheriff Sharp asked him to
postpone such a decision until later.
when meeting of the "boys' could
be called to find out how acceptable
Smith was to them. There were three
similar meetings,
Shows Independence.
Then the deputy spoke out and de.
clared that he would leave the selec-
tion of the nominee for sheriff to the
people Of the county and not to the
Hboys.' He declared that he did not
propose to be muzzled, that he would
continue to serve in the sheriff's de-
partment and do his duty, but he
thought it was his privilege to run for
office without first securing permission
from the bunch and that he would leave
to the Republicans Of the county
whether or not he was entitled to be
nominated
Deputy Sheriff Smith is still in the
sheriff's Office but for the last five
weeks he has been assigned to Jail
duty, the sheriff deciding that the Jail
duty would perhaps improve the dep
uty's disposition even though it de-
tracted from any opportunity he might
have Of doing any work in behalf OF
his candidacy
All Is Not Harmony.
The deputies in the sheriff's office
are largely opposed to Sharp on the
ground that In case he secures third
term he may be a perpetual officehol,.-
er, preventing the possibility of a dep
uty succeeding to the sherifP's posi-
tion.
Hitherto the sheriff's organization
has always worked as a INIT in behalf

up in opposition to the slate which
makes the way difficult one for the
bunch at the county convention. The
opposition to the bunch is likely to be
concentrated on County Commissioner
John G.. Mackay and Sheriff Joseph G.
Sharp, both candidates for a third
term, on the ground that both Of these
Offices control altogether too much pat
ronage to, be left continuously in the

Keith's eyes lifted to her face, his
ears quick to detect the undertons
in her voice.

success. AS to the other question,

Il appreciate your feelings" he said
gently, as she paused, "but would you
mind telling me the nature of those
papers?"
There was something in Keith's
face which told of honesty, and in
spired confidence. Miss Maclaire's
worldly experience had given her deep
insight into the character of men, and
somehow, as she looked into the clear
gray eyes, she felt impelled to answer,
. vague doubt of the unknown Haw-
ley in her mind.

THE END OF THE MESS.
The bosses carried one single
little point at the Democratic con-
ention.
They secured the nomination of
Thomas R. Marshall, governor of
Indiana, for vice president.
William Jennings Bryan wasn't
"sot" against Marshall. But he
didn't want him. He wanted
Burke of N. Dakota or Chamber
lain of Ore.
But the Murphy Taggart-Sulli-
van outfit, defeated on every other
issue, said they wouldn't have
Burke or Chamberlain.
Marshall got 6451z votes on the
second ballot. Bryan himself got.
ex-Sen. Purcell, n Oak, who
nominated Burke, to withdraw
his name.
All the other candidates had
withdrawn, and Marshall was
nominated by reclamation.
The platform was adopted
Bryan, ultra-progressive plat
form. The convention was over.

morning.
So ended the greatest national
convention struggle in the history
of America since the historic pre-
Civil War convention of the Dem
