If Peter should be elected, this facul-
ty of singing viii be a great boon tC
the people. Music hath charms tc
soothe a savage breast so It's said
and when Peter has savage man to
arrest, he viii go out and sing to hin
till his breast is soothed properly, and
when the hardened criminal has re-
lapsed into the softened mood neces-
sary TO make handling easy, Peter will
clap a set of legirons and handouts or
him and exultingly declare, You are
my meat" Peter will be the criminals
Lorelei. He will sit on the fence and
sing them into Jail. 1t would be a
good thing if Peter could get within
singing distance of Hermans. He
would win that $500 easy.
At the conclusion of Peters songs
by the way, he sang two more-Hon'
Jack S. Daveler spoke.
Alessrs. Sherman, Downey. John D.
Spencer and George Lawrence made up
a quartette and sang Nelly was a
Lady" 1t was a good thing. Because
if Nelly hadn't been lady there is no
telling what she might have stuff
If Nelly had been a gentleman her
mother wouldn't have recognized her.
They killed Nelly in the chorus and in
the last verse. She endured a great
DEAL poor thing.
Mr. Geddes sailed into The Herald.
He declared a reporter might be for
given for making statements, because
he has to get his information second
hand and lots of people might deceive
him. But with editors there was no
excuse. Editors were liars. Geddes
declared the editors of The Herald were
a lot of prevaricatorS and intimated
that when the time came for setting
49, III tl,n 41,a4
editors would take the elevator down
10 the cline where the surface of the
lake never congeals sufficiently to per-
init the skater to cut circles or the
iceman to obtain a supply for next
summer.
Geddes waxed exceedingly wroth and
his countenance was not fair to look
upon. He didn't speak in well modu-
lated tones either. He just wllooped
it up. He howled and pranced and
danced. He flashed a receipt from Clerk
Stanton in which it is shown that he
has returned S75 in mileage but dsdn' t
mention the balance which he has in
his possession. And how he did warp
The Herald. 1t came near causing this
paper not to go to press. He declared
1T guilty of libel and all that sort of
thing. Why the man tried it, con-
victed it and sentenced it,
Some timid people thereupon fed in
terror. They couldn't stand all he was
saying, 1t was too tough.
When he finished everyone choose a
partner and to the music of Peder-
sens orchestra, they dawnced. Geddes
shcne at the dawnce. 1t is worth a
journey of 20 miles to see Geddes
dawnce. Cond1e, too, is a whale. He
can dawnce nearly as we'll as he sings.
The whole affair Was g corker. This
event will not be repeated this faH.
The only approach to it will be at HIPS
park next Tuesday when all the can
didajtes again assemble to sing and
dance.
Say mister, said a little girl who
was one of a. group at Fourth East and
First South, to a Herald man yester-
day, Are you for Mckinley or for
Bryan?"
For Bryan, little one" was tfe re-
ply, why do you ask?"
-Oh, we are just keeping count We
have asked LAT people this morning snd
all of them are for Bryan. We amt
found a. single Mckinley man or wo-
man today
DR.. Mantle Hughes Cannon will adj
dress the old soldiers meeting on
Tuesday evening next. She will be the
PlN1lSlHdl EPSdhCI anu d SOOO Is
anticipated. The Young Ladies' Silver
quartette will furnish the music. The
veterans expect TO have a good time
and invite all who desire to attend.
Ali indications point to the tri-
unpllant election of "a Democratic leg
islature. From the outlook at present
Monson of Cache, Nebeker of Rich,
Nebeker of Tooele and Box Elder,
Chambers of Summit. Smoot and Evans
of Utah, Snow of Washington and the
five members of this county for the
upper house are sure of election This
Will reverse conditions of last winter,
when George NJ. Cannon used to say
thumbs up and thumbs down to the
dozen which made up the opposition to
the six Democrats. The lower house
will be Democratic by a splendid ma
jority.
The Herald has been asked to answer
a question. II a voter goes into a
booth and marks an x up by the
party emblem and then decides to
change any vote for one man on the
opposition ticket, what is the effect ?
The voter would do we'll to go and get
another ballot and not take any such
chances There is one way to mark a
ballot correctly this year and every
vote SO marked will be counted. Mark
an Y UP by the rooster and let it go
at that. Do not make any other mark
on the ticket at all.

A 12-year-old girl called on the DO
liticai editor yesterday She wore d
Bryan button. She further said that
She was sorry that she was unable to
vote this time. However, if those much
older than her would not object to TAX
ing what she considered good advice,
she would like to have her first poem
published. 1t is herewith given with
pleasure
We'll have good times in Utah,
I'll bet a nice, new hat
II you put a cross up by the rooster
And let It go at that
