M WHAT TNCY SAY. H Wo have received it copy or the H Logan Republican, which appears to M Ik; a campaign paper to be issued once H n week until October 1st, or there- H about, when it Is touppcarsenii-wcck- H ly. Until then it is to be deoted H chlcily to the support of the Interests H of the Republican paity, hut after H that date vv 111 Include local and other H . news. It is a neat looking paper, H clearly printed, and has evidence of H Journalistic ability. The editor and H ' proprietor, N. Ralph Moore, lias come H to Utah with the avowed Intention of H being fair to the people of this State, H- no matter what may be their religious H opinions. AVc liopc ho will stay by his H announcement, and if so, that hu will H mectwltli tho success that his enture H deseres. The competitors of the Lo- H gan Republican will hae to brighten M up and keep-a-moving, in order to re- H tain tlielr patronage and Influence in M northern Utah. Descret News. H The tlrst number of The Logan H Republican Is received, a line-looking H and piomislng paper. It is handsome- H ly printed, and when it is fairly under H way, ltisMirctobcatowcrofstiength M to the party hi Cache county. We H trust thai the Republicans tlieie will m sustain it with there olces and tlielr H pockets, for nothing is so good for H' party service as a well-supported, able H paper. Wc arc sure fiom tho looks of H the llrst number tliat the editor of the H Republican is all right, and that lie is M prepared and disposed to give the H people and the party it paper well H wortli tlielr money. Salt Lake Trlb- H In line with tlie Tribune's cpres- H sions wo would le.spcctfully suggest H " that whatever tlnanclal support the H -" Cache county people, Republicans ' especially, sec lit to give this Instltu- 1 tion should be given now. We are at H an expense of $2,300 plus freights and B' other expenses, and with constantly H incieasing bills, it makes a rather H .tavy load to carry. If tho paper H tflves promise of what jou havo a light m to expect, give us jour name as a sub- B scrlber and send us the money. If the H business men feel that the institution is likely to proc a credit to the city H and of wortli to themselves and the H1 county, let them give it now all the H support that is consistent with good B business methods. If the Republicans !of tlie county deshe to continue a paper that is thoroughly alive to tlielr interests, that w 111 w ork unceasingly to H advance the interests of the party, H that will be found on the right side of H the proposition through thick and M thin, let them give to it now the II M ' nancial suppoit necessary to make itof H, , the greatest advantage. If tlie people M of tlie county, regardless of politics, K I dcMro to establish in tlielr midst a H ji Jlrst-class paper devoted to the inter- H f estsof Cache count) and its citiens B a paper that will cluoulcle the news H of Cache count a paper piinted in a B clean, readable shape and containing H all the news, let them suppoit The H Republican now. We aie here to give H Cache count) the best Republican H paper it ever had and the best local H paper it ever had, and with even half H an opportunity we'll give jou this.and H nun e. ' For those out of town we H would suggest tliat they tut out the H following blank, till it in proper Ij, H place it and a money oider in an en- H elope and mall to us. However, If H joii would like to become a suhscilhcr H and have not the amount on hand to H spare at this time, cut out tho blank H and forward It to us just the same and H we will be pleased to enter jou on our H books. Pci sons In the city arc close H enough to look after the matter pci- H sonally and if they arc interested in H the proposition should attend to the H matter at once, not in tlie far-olT H distant future. M SUBSCRIPTION BLANK. H I desire to subscribe for THE B LOGAN RKPUHL1CAN for H ; One Year $2.50 B Six Months $1.25 H. Three Months 75c B l Name "6tT MO THE OAML" The Republican county conwuiUon twill soon Ihj dicrc and conslilorable activity is being manifested by jiaity .njanagcrs and prospective candidates, llcadquartcrs wilLbc establi.shcdm.ltih iln.aavv days andswc understand .that' a campaign clionus.is being orgaulzcd, rallies planned and speeches arranged for. That everj tilling is working in perfect harmony Js an assured fact and the coming ..convention will probably be oncofithe most enthus iastic ever held In tlie county. There seems to a vciy excellent show for Uie entire county ticket to be elected and aspirants for different olllcesaie not hard to find. The one thing necess ary Is that the convention select men who nrc thoroughly competent, have a good record as men of business or professional ability and men of good character, and there it little doubt that Cache county will give a glorious Republican victory this fall. Every man interested in Ills jujty should be interested In this muvcntlon and should so work and strive as to make himself felt In the same. Jf any man desires olllce, lit has a right to that divslre, but the woters also haven right to say whetheror not thatjjian shall iiave the olllce. Re fore the convention ;uul In the con vention any man lias a perfect right towoik for whom he pleases, but it is no more than right that every man should look at the matter impartially and determine for himself whether the man he deshes to suppoit Is a man thoroughly lit for the position and in such uccoid with hlsp.utyas to make his election possible if nom inated. Let eveiy man use every honorable means to secuie the nomin ation of ids favorite candidate, but when tlie convention has done its work and perchance Ills man has been defeated let him take tlie defeat gracefully, and vvorl: with equal energy for the success of the ticket nominated. This can rightly be ex pected of every honorable man. Let no defeated ambitions, personal pre judice or lapse of interest cause jou to do less than may reasonably be ex pected of jou before and after the convention. And when tlie convention comes along, above all things else, don't stay at homo and then kick if the men nominated are not Just to jour liking. One man lias just as much voice as another in the selection of men for tlie ticket and he is not living up to his privileges unless hecxciclses this prerogative. (o and do what jou can to get what you want, and den't stay at home and be a knocker. LOCAL POLITICAL SITUATION. Judging from the number of men in tlie Republican ranks that arc desirous of olllce, the chances for Republican success at the comingclectlon must be vety Mattering. Flics around the buugholc of a molasses barrel In sum mei time arc no more plentiful than the names now being suggested by the 0. O. P. voters, and If the list doesn't contain men of such political capacity, moral character and popularity as to inaku any Democratic candidate look like a pewter quarter witha hole in it, then The Republican is sadly mistak en. From the head of the ticket down to the lowest hi the scale, there are nuinbeiless candidates all of whom de sire to get hi on the gieat Republican landslide that is going to stilke Cache this fall. It's enough to give the Dein ociactic paitj an attack of veitlgo, and that the paity managers aie be coming alaimcd over the situation, is evidenced bj the fiequenl confeiences on sticet coineis. behind bains and in up-stahs looms behind baricd doois. The local Deuiociacj would, as a mat tei of couise, like to see our htate ticket defeated, but their leal anietj is that Cache with its spoils shall be saved to thein and "hj the gads, sail," thej aie going to make the light of then lives, "sah." von si:natou. Considerable Intrust centeis in the Senatoiial nomination, and amougthe candidates mentioned aie II. Iliillen Jr., ,lno. A. llendilckson and .1. C. Knowks. When appioached on the subject Mr. Mullen said that he was not out making an active light for the nomination, but that if the conven tion saw lit to nominate him lie would accept, and do all that could he done to be elected. Ills name will go be foie the convention. Mr. Mullen's capability, and worth as a part j vvoik er is too well known to Cache countj Republicans to need furthcrcommciit. .Ino. A. Ilendilckson's friends have suggested him for this position, and contend tliat his nomination would be but a Just recognition of faithful ser vice. Mr. llendilckson Is one of the original Republicans of the valley and has fought tho good light for years when there was little hope and now when prospects are good someiecogni tion of ills sen Ices sliould bo tendered him so say those who arc supporting him.

Leatham of Wellsvllle. nxi ex cellent party worker -well and favor ably known; J. W. Rarfett and C. C.

Thomas of SinithhVld aie also mentioned. There are other candidates for tlie vailous olllccb, who will be mention ed next. Everj tiling iswoikingalong haunonlouslj, and there it, no doubt but that the convention will be the laigest and most enthusiastic ever held in the county. The Journal rakes up the Hon. James Hammond's vote in his race against W. II. King for Congress and attempts to make its readers believe that lion. Joseph Howell will meet with the same llnal results and tho same local results, providing Judge King is tlie man selected to run against him. Wero it not that the conditions today are entirely different and the men entirely UliTcient. men, the parallel might hold good, but as it is, tlie comparison loses its force. When Mr. Hammond was a can didate for Congress he was also Secre tary of State ond would not resign un til he had been elected to Congress. This fact placed him in such a posi tion tliat lie himself was unable to get into tlio tight and make the lace he otherwise would, and at thesame time it placed him befoic the people as a man deshiug a dead cinch on the political situation as one not willing to lisk a great deal, and as a lcsult he lost considerable waim suppoit from men who piefer a dllfeicnt line of ac tion. And at that time Dcmociacy in Utali had hardly been shaken, so that the tight was made under (1 i ill cult les that do not confront the party todaj. The Hon. Joseph Howell is a man without stilngs tied to him, a man who Is a worker and can get into the Held and work with all time at ids disposal. Tlie light will be made at a time when every indication points to a Republican landslide, when the Republican party Is thoroughly alive to its possibilities and opportunities and will put forth the ellort that it lias never done before. At the same time Joseph Howell is a man who has proved himself of exceptional value to huiidieds of farmers of this county, who will not forget him when it comes to votes. And that von cannot com paie Howell's possible vote hi his own town with Hammond's actual vote, ....... I. .wt . (!.... ... t.l..w... 11..... 41... 4 needs no oilier evidence 1 11:111 that given In the last Senatorial light. Hammond In his lace for Congicss lost his home precinct, but Howell In his race for Senator against Hon. Joe 1 Monson c.uiled Wellsvllle, that 01 hialter of Deinociacy, by fe." votes. Now wouldn't that . stump jou. Mon son, the leader, the woiker, the boss, of Cache county, probably the best man the Demociats could have put up lost the Demociatlcstionghold by b," and the county hj 1178, and then The Journal attempts to tell us that a Salt Laker If put 011 the ticket will cany Howell's home piecinct as King did Hammond's. Oh, 110 bojs, tho cir cumstances aie dilfcicut and the men aie different. The challenge Issued bj Chairman Itojlance of the State Deinociacy for a setks of debates between Hon. Joseph 1 low ell and the man nominat ed hj the Democratic State conven tion at Provo today is a great big hi mi'. The othei side is counting 011 the probability of tlielr nominee being W. 11. King, who is known as a de hater of considerable ability, but iiIkiv call one of th.rt kind tliat "bluffs" his audience by phjslcal demonstra tions, sarcastic language and "cute" gibes. Mr. Howell has never made any great pretentions to being a de bater and is a man of very quiet, easy going manners not the man to meet men of King's style. Mr. Howell is a worker-not a. spoutcr. Tlie bluff in lids instance will hardly go. How would it do, though, for tlie State Chairman to accept tho challenge. Wc havo no doubt tliat ho can till the bill to any Democrat's satisfaction and Is a man vvoiMiy of his adversary. There are not a fe,v men in tho Re publican ranks rcaoy and willing to accept the challenge Jf given air op portunity but the opportunity will not bo given them. Tho challenge was alined directly at Mr. Howell with the Idea of placing that gentlc I man in a false light. 'lhe Democratic Chairman hoped tliat the Republican Central Committee would sec tit to ilgnorc the challenge, thereby giving an opportunity for political capital but tlie little trick ds too apparent and will lose its force. The Journal has seen tit to ask, "Who Is McCarty, anyway?" Doesn't The Journal recall the case of "Thom as Smart vs. the city'or vice versa, as the case may be, that 'was carried on In tills city, about two years ago, and -will it Insist on forgattlng tliat Judge McCarty sat orr the .bench at tliat time? Is The Journal so befuddled that it cannot rcmenilmr-wliat a very favorable impression Judge McCarty made on the people, regardless of political adulations, xt that time? We are told that The Journal at that time said some very nice tilings about McCarty but It's different now, you ec. Undcrstress of political prejudice It seeks to forget any real fair and wjuarc things it ever said or did, and says to the people "we didn't mean It." "Has McCarty ever been north of OgdcnV" That's certainly a lapse on The Journal's part. Tlie Republican has a proposition to present to the wheelmen of this city. It may be a good one, and it may be a bad one that Is, impractic al but if It serves tlie purpose of arousing thought along the line sug gested we shall lie more than content. Tho central thought of the whole proposition is "cinder paths," or any other old path tliat will give cjclers some place to ride without danger of running into open gates, across open ditches, into pedestrians, over bumps, high box sewers, etc. As nearly as wc are able to arrive at the matter from estimates by persons familiar with Logan cjclers, is that there arc prob ably between the and six hundred w heels in use in this vicinity, and It w ould seem that the idea of seeming some decent paths on which to ride sliould lecelvc weighty consideration. Tliat tlie sidewalks are not the place for bicjcles w ill not be disputed even by those who can lind no place else to do their spinning. For cjclers to use the walks is a source of annoyanco and danger to pedestrians, vv ho not unfrequently arc made to get a kan garoo hump on themselves and even then meet with an occasional hard bump. Neither is the walk a safe proposition or a source of much pleas ure to the cjclist. There isn't a side walk In town that hasn't from one to six operr ditches, high box sewers, or lumps or blimps of some description that makes lite a burden every time one Is struck. Then again the incon venience caused by little tots who can't get out of the way and big tots who Insist on staying in tho way when the wheelman desires to pass is calcu lated to give one the nightmare occa sionally. If j 011 don't like the sidewalk the street Is the next best thing, but witli the exception of a square or two Lo gan streets are impossible for blcj cllng. The proposition then quickly re volves itself Into this: "If the side walks In their present condition arc unsafe and hardly worth riding over, and even though In good shape would still be a source of inconvenience to both pedestrian and rider, why shall we not have tlie street fixed up for the purpose and let the cv cling be done there to the convenience of evcrj'-bodj-." Tlie question then arises how can tills be done, and 'tis our idea to tell jou one way in which It might be done. This way may not be the best waj- you may be able to think of something better, and If jou can that Is exactly vv hat Is wanted. Inasmuch as GOO or COO persons of all classes, possibly representing twice as many of Logan's citlcns, arc cjclers, It seems reasonable that the city would be willing to grant them the exclusive use of at least three feet of the street on each side of the light poles on any and all streets In the city. Tills six feet would be all the room necessary for a splendid path on each side of the poles, and properly cindered would make blcv cling In Lo- San equal to a grand toboggan slide own a rainbow. Then follows the question, where will the money come from to do all this building of paths and who will sec that it Is done? Providing the cjclers are really desirous of securing for themselves a good riding place the money might be raised by'assessinent or license. Good paths ought to be worth at least &2ajear to any one owning a evele, and (,00 wheels at $2 a j ear would mean $1,100 a vear. $1,200 a jearpiopetlj spent would mean the building of at least a mile of path. l,i;oo a j ear for foil 1 or live je.us would mean that every stieet in the city could havo a cinder path If de shed. The matter of building could be under the supervision ol a club of cjclers, or the matter or li censing and building bo turned over to the city. Let thecitj Impose a li cense on eveij wheel and uso the lnonev for const met lug paths. This is piobablj a great dieani, but we believe it Is thoioughlj practical. If the above presents Itself in a fav orable light to any considerable num ber of cjclers, theio should lie an at tempt at some kind of an oigaulatlou that the matter may be Investigated thoroughly and some dcllnito action taken. It would seem that the ejele dealers and agents would take hold of a pioposltlon of this kind quite readily as the securing of good paths would certainly mean the sale of a greater number of wheels. Let's hearfiom somo one, anjone, on the pioposltlon or any phase of It- or any other proposition toward the securing of good paths. In all probability very little work could be done now, jet the prelimin ary work, making of detinue plans and securing of money could bo accom plished and everything put In readi ness for work next spring.
