OGDEN, Utah October S.-This is
one of the two States which stood the

Taft as against Roosevelt, so it would
take a real uphcaval to upset the con-
scrvatiYc Republican strength here.

who think he is a Progressive, the

But while the tariff is Il vital qucS-

why this state is conservative. The
Mormon people are not radical. They
believe in progress. but they do not
want to change AN uncertainty for
Il certainty. In 1916 Utah went Demo-
cratic by substantial majority. The
peace sentiment was an influential
factor. but hasicallv the people OF
iStraticn in power and did not clamur

In 1920 as the vicsSitudeS of war
developed an era of economic read
Iustm"nt, Utah joined the general
clamor for change in tn" hope that
things might grow better. The re-
construction period has left Utah
with some sears. but by and large
there is steady Improvement in

Taft or Harding or even Wilson was
in this State but the people have
come to regard Calvin Coolidge as
safe, sane man. utterly honest and
conscientious. That kind OF public
servant can as rule count on the
support of Utah, if he is in office. as
against the pleas of another candi-
date. In other words, all things
being equal the party in power is
the favorite and it takes a real issue
to produce change in Utah's cleo

RICHLAND PLANNING
FOR NEW AUDITORIUM

RICHLAND, March 12.-Rich-
land is to have a community au-
ditorium. Such an auditorium is
carefully considered by the enter
prising and resourceful citizenship
of Richland and this section, which
realize that Richland has outgrown
the present school auditorium. 1t
was sufficient unto Richards needs
when it was built some fifteen
years ago, but Richards progress
has advanced so the present au-
ditorium is by far inadequate for
the present needs. Richland has
long been in need of an auditorium
and one seating one thousand or
more rather than capacity of five
hundred as is the present status.
The new auditorium will be one OF
this sections greatest assets, as
Richland is an attractive center fo-
the concerning of various kinds of
tricounty gatherings, reunions and
entertainments in large way.
Mayor Carter announces that vari-
Gus civic organizations of Richland
and this community will meet here
during the week to effect plans for
Richards new auditorium.
