I LOCAL C11I OF I PITIES TELL OF. I VICTORY M. On the eve of an election whoso campaign has been recognized as one of the most extraordinary of many years leaders in Weber County of Re publican aud Democratic parties have each declared his party's prospects are reassuring and bright. The Dem oerats are confident of the same sue cess which placed them so completely in power two years ago and the Rc publicans declare they expect to roll up the same majority that they used to get In ante-bellum days. H: Democrats Confident Chairman W. J. Parker of the Weber County Democratic committee issued the following statement regarding the Democratic outlook: "To the best of my observation there is no change from two years ago and there should be none. The war conditions are favorable and it's up to the people to stand by the president by returning Milton H. Welling to con fl gress. I think Weber county will cast a generous vote for the entire Demo fl, cratic ticket In my judgment the H' entire Democratic ticket will be elect- ed by a safe majority. We have no fear as to the outcome as we believe the people will vote their convictions as a change at the present time would be disastrous, our best obsen'ation is that the people have made up their mind and will vole. We know of many people who have registered without solicitation and have voluntarily stated that they are going 10 register B their rcsontmcnt at the polls of the attacks made by Colonel Roosevelt j upon the 'Wilson administration. It j seems to bo conceded throughout the Hj country that the kaiser is holding back his abidcation until after clec-: tlon. It Is clear that if the Wilson administration is sustained he will fl abdicate at once. If Wilson is turned B down he will take new hope." B Expect Old Majority B Moroni Skeen. chairman of the Ro- B publican county commfttco made the B statement which follows: B "The Republicans of Weber county B will roll up their old-time majority on B Tuesday, according to reports from all B parts of Ogden and the Webor county precincts. President Wilson's appeal B for the Republicans to repudiate their B own candidates when these candidates' B are all known to be patriotic and most B of them have members of the family' B in actual war service, has reacted against the Democrats. Besides, the voters of Weber county realize that the Republican party is the one to be trusted with reconstruction policies B and are strenuously objecting t,o the Increased taxes under Democratic rule in the state and county. The result will be a complete victory for the Re H. publican party." Weather Important If the weatlier on election day is as Hi bad as it is today, party leaders say, the vote will be greatly under the cx B pected figure. Because the day of the closed carriage and the foot wanner Is no more, the weather will play a con sidorablc part in the voting. This being the ifrst election under B the new district organization, the staff B at the court house has had a iremcn- dous job in securing judges of election and polling places and attending to the distribution of supplies and Instruc tions to each district. Several judges have resigned at the last moment from necessity. Today at the court house a clerk has been kept busy almost con H tinually swearing In tho judges and Hi giving them instructions. B Returns at Standard Hj The polls will be open between the B hours of 7 a. in. and 7 p. m. so that B an opportunity will be given to every- one to vote. At 7 p. m. tho voting will stop and the judges will count B the ballots and announce the results. Because there are so many districts Hj and some are located so that it will B be hard to communicate with them a B complete return on the election, lo- Hj cnlly, is expected to be late. The Standard will announce by bul letin the returns as fast as they are received and will give a telegraphic report of the congressional election throughout the United States. As the Issue nationally is centered about the election for congress, this, no doubt, will prove of intense interest. 1 nn I If you are not satisfied with the raise in your taxes, brought about through Democratic ad ministration, vote the Repub lican ticket.

I Here is absolute evidence. When -the Alaska Coal and timber bodies leaders in Congress denounced Wilson as a man who sought to ruin Alaska by re fusing to allow the development of the territory's resources. The following week, when the President outlined a government railroad to open up the coal and timber, every last one, of the Republican leaders voted against the project. So you see, It is a game of trying everlastingly to discredit our President. One hundred instances of this kind could be cited. ' (Paid Political Advertisement) 0. L PBiSTO IE BURIED TODAY Oluf A.

M'CAMANT and FAMILY. oo VOTERS, HIE 1 MISTAKE i Vote "Yos" for ail three amendments to the Constitution. All arc based upon principles of Right and Justice. One prohibits the use and manufac ture of intoxicating liquors. One exempts small homes from tax ation. One equalizes the taxes of mines with other property. All are recommended by a two thirds majority of your representatives of the last legislature. Objectors to Amendment No. 1 Want the return of the saloons. Hppe each two years to change the prohibition law. Desire to keep prohibition a politi cal Issue. Want Utah a black spot upon tho prohibition map of the United States. Objectors to amendments numbers 2 and 3 Wish to avoid their just proportion of tho tax burden. They know and do not deny 1st That mines are assessed and taxed on their net proceeds and not on full value, like all other property. 2nd That since statehood mines have had this exception In their favor, and in 1915 thir rate of taxation was further reduced 60 per cent, resulting in a loss to the taxpayers of the state of 1,857,966 in three years. 3rd That this injustice was fas tened upon other tax payers by the de. feat of the last tax amendment to the Constitution by tho lavish use of the f money of the mining interests of this state. Note carefully that under the Con stltution, mines are taxed by the State Board of Equalization as direct ed by the Legislature. That under the amendment, the State Board of Equalization will also tax mines under the direction of the Legislature. That the wording which grants powers to the State Board of Equali zation Is the same In the proposed amendment as In the present Consti tution. Voters need pay no attention to the constitutionality of this amendment. The supreme court of the. state will de cide this question. Vote "Yes" on all three amend ments. Make Utah dry forever. Reduce and'equallze the tax burdens of the ipeople.. Issued by the Joint Committee of School Boards and the House of Dele gates. Unanimous action of Ogden Principals' Association.

Corn declinod sharply today as a result of tho signing of tho armistice with Austria. At first tho weakness appeared to bo due moro I to absence of buying than to urgoncy of selling, but a rally brought Increas ed pressure. Liberal receipts tended also to handicap the bulls. Opening prices, which ranged from to lc lower, with Decomber $1.11 to 1.12 and January $1.13 to 1.13, were followed by a nearly complete reaction, but then by a setback further than be fore. Oats gave way with corn. The oats market, however, was relatively not so weak. Aftor opening unchanged to c lower with Decomber 66 to 66 Vie. prices recovered and then dropped again. Provisions sympathized with the weakness of grain. Buyers wore scarce Covering byshorts hoisted the corn market lator. The close was firm at tho same as Saturday's finish to c high er, with Decomber $1.13 to 1.13 and January $1.14 to 1.14. Strength in tho hog market tended subsequently to cause provision rallies.
