whirling across the walk, but the girls
were unipjured. though very badly

runaway team left the sidewalk, and
had a number of passengers on it. Be-
fore they could get out the wagon
crashed into the car, throwing it from

escaped with no more serious injury
than severe shaking up. The collision

which was complete wreck, and they
ran into one of Grant Bros. buses, but

To the Editor of THE HERALD.
Permit me space in your columns to
endorse the editorial in your Satur-
days issue, on the Democratic meeting
at the Federal court room. and to ex-
press sympathy with those who
thought they were doing no harm
The criticism of the article on Sunday
suggests that there was nothing out of
the way IN the platform ado pied at
Ogden, and nothing in the constitution
adopted Friday night that any Demo-
crat need object to. The former docu
ment contains substantially the fol-
lowing: 1--WE cannot affiliate with Re
publicans. Mormons or members of the
Peoples party" This means that only
gentiles are wanted; and as if to
strengthen this conclusion, Sam Merritt
remarked to the chair on Friday ever
ing that she didn't know about making
full appointments of co--gufttaes fo}
precincts just now, for we NAV not be
able to obtain Geptiles in all Of them"
Is there no Apache in that? I think
there is. And 1 further endorse the
movement for straight Democratic Or
gsnization here, one in which the only
general qualification for membership
shall be that the applicant is like your
subscriber, A DEMOCRAT.
