GEDDEs AND HIS BOTTLE,
Mileage Man Exhibits Filth From a
Corral

Less than fifty people, not over half
of whom were voters, were detained
three hours last night listening to Re
publican campaign speeches in the
Thirteenth voting district of the Sec
ond precinct. Fred w. Price conducted
the meeting and after allowing Dan w
Harrington to load the listeners up with
dissertation on national affairs and is
sues for over an hour, introduced the
Naylor Mandolin and Guitar club,
which caught the crowd with a pretty
selection.
Ex-County Commissioner A. S. Ged-
deS then took the floor and discussed
the water problem. He commenced at
the Jordan Narrows, took his hearers
from there into Big Cottonwood, back
across the foothills to Mill Creek. and
from there into Parleys canyon. He ex-
hibited a bottle of really tough looking
liquid. which he said was secured in a
corral up Parley'S, and invited his aud
itors to draw the cork, if they had the
nerve, and smell of il. No one ac-
cepted the invitation, so the speaker
proceeded to roast the Democrats.
Councilman Callister devoted some
time TO a discussion of the records of
the two local parties. He wound up
by giving Ezra Thompson a boost and
QSt4dIluS lu3l arthur fTdIL WOULD
never again be chief of police, and ex-
pressing the hope that Republican
would succeed to his seat in the council
chamber.
After more music and statement
from the chairman that Judge Merritt
was going to vote for Morse as city at
torEey, Farley White-introduced as
Farley Pratt-D. H., Twomey. Charles
Cottrell. Dick Whittemorc. George Can
ming, Albert Reiser and c. w. Morse
were each given minute in which TO
address the people.
Dick Whittemore wanted to contra
diet some statements which had ap-
peared in The Herald. but he failed to
state what they were, and sat down.
after saying that if elected he would see
that good sidewalks were put down in
the Second precinct

that many years ago a number of Peoria
Indians organized show company ami

educated in English. But it was stipulated
by the management that they must talk

PROVOKING THE NATIVES.
Beers Are Threatening Those Who
Are Loyal to Great Britain.

Cape Town, Oct. pa telegram
from BuIawayo, Rhodesia, dated Mon
day, says: A .Boer force is threaten
ing Chief KhamaI and Chief Linchwei,
who are loyal TO Great Britain. The
two chiefs country lies at the extreme
northwest of the Transyaal and in
cludes Bechuanaland
1t seems a gross mistake for the
Beers to provoke war among the ma
tives The probable explanation is that
the Boer force intends to destroy the
railway TO Bulawayo, which runs
through Khama's country, and thereby
prevent a movement by Colonel Plum
mer's Rhodesian force to go to the re-
lief Of Mafeking. Already there have
been stories of a Rhodesian armored
train engaging the Beers some distance
north of Mafeking

Tanners Cure For Suicide.

Henry S. Tanner occupied a great
deal of time to tell the audience that he
had been as far away from home as
San Francisco, where, a few years ago,
there was an average of three suicides
daily because the Republican party
was not in power. Mr.. Tanner believed
Republican success a cure for al Ills
and preventative of suicides. In his
estimation, if it were true that Ez is
sport, the mayoralty candidate is 10
worse than his defamers. After talking
about the war issues, prosperity, OK
pansion and Dewey, Mr.. Tanner con-
fessed that it was his maiden speech
and that probably he ought never to
attempt to get on the stump again
Albert S. Reiser defended the action
of the Republican members of the coun-
Gil in attempting to have the gold clause
inserted in the late issue of the city's
lawful money refunding bonds. He de-
clared that all other bonds issued by
the city. county, school board or state
are payable in gold, and hence the gold
clause is the proper thing to work for.
The fact is that only a very small per
cent of these public obligations are any
thing but lawful money bonds.
Malcolm Amused the Kids.
When Malcolm McAllister, SO small in
stature, mounted the table to speak,
the restless kids started to giggle. Soon
the merriment became epidemic. Mall
com had not gotten far in his grandilo-
quent recitation before one Of the mu-
Sicians let his banjo fall.
'I'll slap your id little face" yelled
out the banjo player.
This burst of indignation turned the
rally into an uproar of giggles. After
quiet was restored Malcolm said: Il
will proceed to place my singing re-
buke on the Democrats for leaving Utah
without representation in congress"
hut while he was getting his singing
rebuke ready a voter yelled out IF
you brats~ don't behave I'll make you
take back seat"

BAD TRAIN SERVICE.
Delays Are Fxasperating to Hotels
and Travellers.

and Travellers.
The continual delaps to the arrival and
departure of cast and west-bound trains
on both the Union Pacific and Rio Grande
Western railroads are causing consider
able inconvenience and a great deal of
justifiable grumbiing on the part OF the
travelling public and the proprietors of the
local hotels. Both roads are undoubtedly
subjected to delays from belated connec-
tons with other roads al the various juno
ton points. but that fact does not afford
much consolation to people who are press
ed for time. nor does it tend to apoease
the hotel men who are daily in receIpt Of
kilograms telling them that their would
be patrons are TOO far behind time on ac-
count Of poor train service. to warrant
their stopping at Salt Lake and to for
ward their mail.
Whatever may be the cause of the de-
lays. the sooner they are remedied the
better it will be for the travelling public,
and the interests of the business commu-
nifty and hotel men of this city. Hundreds
of tourists and business men whose time
is limited are thus compelled to pass
through town without stopping off for a
day or a few hours. as the case may be,
and tile effect, is being keeniy felt in the
places they are wont to frequent. The in
terests Of the railroad companies are also
