HERE political straw that was
handed in at The HERALD last night:
ION the evening train of the Utah
Central coming north yesterday, quite
an animated discussion of the political
situation took place, resulting in poll
of the car (the smoker) being taken. II
resulted: Cleveland 10, Harrison 8,
and few not voting.
LOCAL POLITICIANS reports a slight
falling off in the ranks of the hackers of
Cleveland since the SackVille West
scandal has been thoroughly talked
over and digested, but still Growers
friends are confident that as soon as the
talk over this affair quiets down there
will be some big money ready to back
the present incumbent.
THROUGH LETTERS AM circulars re-
ceiVed from his agent, we learn that the
boy Whistler, the wrestler who was
here with Captain Boyton, when the
latter gave his exhibition at Garfield
Beach has landed out for himself, and
is DOW announced as positively the
only water-walker in the world" He
will probably exhibit here next sum-
mer.
WHILE "BooM talk" is not so much
herd and real estate excitement does
not run so high in Salt Lake City as a
few months ago, there is steady and
solid growth manifest in business mat
7ters. The town is gradually increasing
in population and wealth Fine resi-
-6e7ceS are being erected in different
parts of the city, and some new bust
ness blocks are about completed. A
great future is indicated for this noted
town. Its situation near the Dead Sea
of America, its many resources and its
aGtfacClVene5s Tor tourists, make Its
future outlook bright and promising
Logan Journal.
ANOTHER sICKENING accident hap
pened yesterday on South Temple
Street, near Second East. A horse rid
eea by boy came tearing along at a
pretty good speed, when collided with
q delivery wagon. as result, the shafts
were driven entirely through the ami
NAL, which, after series of limps
and wriggles, fell to the earth. The
boy retained presence of mind enough
to Jump, and thus probably saved his
life, as he would undoubtedly have
been badly crushed had he endeavored
to retain his seat. The boy gave his
name as Simpson and the driver of the
wagon that of Wallace.
