the state, are enthusiastic ouer
the nomination of Governor
Woodrow Wilson for bres;-
dent. Here are some of the
sxbress'ons giye,. UPON the mons'-
ration of Governor Wilson:
JUDGE WILLIAM H. KING.-I am
delighted with tho nomination OF
Governor Wilson. He was my first
choice, and 1 believe him to be the
strongest Democrat in the country
today. He will poll more votes than
any other man the Baltimore con-
vention could have named. There
is no doubt in my mind that with
Wilson at the head of tho ticket the
Democratic party will sweep the
country from coast to coast Gov
ernor Wilson has a keen analytical
mind, and is perhaps the best posted
student of political economy IN the
country today He also is thorough
ly imbued with the idea of progress
sive government in which the people
shall exercise full authority without
the interference Of the vested inter
ests. He will make one OF the great
est presidents in the history of the
nation. The choice of Governor Will
son insures, [ believe, Democratic
nights demonstration here was a
fair example Of the enthusiasm his
nomination has aroused in the state.
This, accompanied by the e9tlre
lack Of enthusiasm for President
Taft and the statewide aversion Of
the people to the machine politics OF
the federal bunch crowd here, spells
victory locally as well as nationally.
JUDGE o. w. PoWERs.-The man
who was nominated today at the
Baltimore convention is man of
and for the people; a man who will
work for the people and not for those
in clearing houses. Though / had
some personal preference for Champ
Clark before the convention, never
theless l. am confident that Governor
have been made. He is more uni
formly strong throughout the coun-
try than Clark or any other Demo
cratic leader, for that matter. He
will poll many Republican votes, as
well as solid Democratic vote, and
his election as president Of the
United States is now but matter of
counting the November returns.
There is no doubt but that the choice
of the New Jersey governor will
have an electrifying effect on De"
mocracy in Utah. He was practically
the unanimous choice Of the Utah
delegation, and the general prospects
Of victory for Democracy throughout
the nation will undoubtedly improve
the chances of victory in Utah
!, B. CRITCHLOW Republican) For
once in its history, Democracy has
escaped the initial blunder that so
often encompassed It's defeat In
the nomination Of Governor Woodrow
Wilson the party has chosen the
strongest man in its ranks, and from
the present outlook his election is
almost certain, that is, provided the
editor of the Outlook doesn' t muss
things up too much. I believe Wood
row Wilson to be highly capable
man. His nomination will have the
purity, and this taken with the con
ditionS in the Republican party, ought
to insure Democratic victory.
OHM F. HOWELL think that the
nomination of Wilson is a vindication
of Bryan, and that the convention
did the right thing In nominating
Governor Wilson as the standard.
bearer Of the party.
. w. LOW.-The nomina-
tion of Woodrow Wilson is a master
stroke. / believe that he can carry
Utah.

ablest Democrats that the country
