high minded and capable man and
mn old and valued friend. and have
so stated on more than one occa-
sion.
II Is unfortunate indeed that
facetious remark uttered by me IN
more or less confidence during good
natured conversation on the street
with some Democratic friends should
be construed into a charge against
the Utah county candidate l told
your reporter when he secured n con-
firmauon OF the story that l was
averse TO discussing the matter at
all: that ] was not particularly in
terested In whom the Democrats Sc
lected for the post OF United States
marshal. and that he had better let
the matter drop. a view in which he
appeared TO acquiesce. / stated fur
ther that I thought Mr.. Storrs was
well within his rights in his prefer
ence for his follow townsman and
that ! did not think he would deny
having spoken IN his favor.
During my brief career. I have
aimed 20 be fair and tried hard to
mind my own business ! therefore
resent the publication of a story that
puts me in a false light by creating
the impression that I am trying TO
butt in on a situation that does
not concern me. since I am neither a
Democrat nor a Republican. Yours
truly. ;. II. LOVE.

DISTINCTIVE HATS
FOR CITY CHAIN GANG

A rumor circulated at police headquar-
ters last night was TO the effect that the
members OF the city chain gang are TO be
provided with distinctive headgear as a
means OF identification. 1t is understood
that each unwilling employee OF the city
will be provided with an antiquated po-
liceman's helmet a large number OF
which are on hand. One theory advanced
IS that a man escaping from the gang
must either arouse suspicion by going
bareheaded OF be betrayed by the odd
head piece,
Another suggestion is to the effect that
any prisoner attempting escape might
easily be confused and rendered helpless
by a blow on the top OF the helmet which
could not do harm 10 his head but must
leave him effectually blindfolded when the
high helmet should be driven down over
his eyes
