The Chaplain Of the Senate offered
prayer, praying for the Legislators,
the President, the people Of the State,
the National Congress and the suffer
ers from the coal famine.
BY direction Of the presiding officer,
the Chief Clerk Of the House read such
part Of the minutes Of the House as
related to the election of United States
Senator.
"If there Is no objection the min
utes Of the joint session will show that
the entire journal Of the House was
read" said the President.
There was no objections
A delay of five minutes was OCCASION
ed by the failure of the Senate journal
to arrive from the printer. In this in
terval the members conversed with
each other and with their friends.
Those who were present at the Sena-
torial election two years ago noted the
entire absence of flowers from the desks
of the members. Not flower was in
sight save some artificial blossoms on
the ladies' hats.
The Senate journal arrived and was
read. At 1916 President Allison
said:
''The journals of the House and
Senate having shown that Reed Smoot
has received majority of the votes In
each House, hereby declared Reed
Smoot elected United States Senator
from the State Of Utah."
The announcement was received
with applause and Mr.. Nash immed
lately offered resolution that a com
mitee of four be appointed to motif,
Mr.. Smoot Of his election.

b. Y. COLLEGE NOTES.

Instead Of holding Theology classes
Tuesday Immediately after chapel the
school divided and held three seprate
meetings. The ladies remained in the
assembly room where Mrs. Barber and
Mrs. Lloyed addressed them. The
speakers dwelt mainly on the duties
of the girls in the home.
Melvin Ballard addressed the mis-
sionary class and other students hold
ing the higher Priesthood. His sub
ject was the necessity Of the mission
aries becoming acquainted with the
authenticity of the Bible.
Bishop Carbon of the First Ward

The Usona Society met and render
ed a very interesting program Wedncs-
day evening.
The rallies held Tuesday evening by
the two parties Equal Bights" and
the "Rational"-of the Philomatic
Literary Society was very interesting
The main question was: Shall the
ladies of the society hold office. The
speakers of the Equal Rights party
were Geo. B. Hendricks, Ida Stocks,
and w. w. Henderson. Each speech
was followed by song from the party
glee club. The speakers OF the Ra-
tional party were e. l.. Marler, K.
W. Pearson and Jas A. Godfrey.
Each speech was followed by quart
cite from members of the party. All
the speakers did well.
Perhaps there was never a time In
the history of the Philomatic Society
when more enthusiasm was shown
than on this occasion.
Miss Maud Smith is the Equal
Rights nominee for president of the
Philomatic Litera ny Society, and Il.
w. Pearson is the Rational party

RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.

The Intir-State Commerce Commits
sion have issued statement which
shows that during the three
months ended Sept. 30. 1902,
there were 1853 persons killed and
1913 injured in train accidents.
Other accidents, including those
sustained by employees while at work
and by passengers in getting on or
Off cars, etc, bring the total number
of casualties up to l2,O07, the killed
numbering S45, and the injured II, 1862.
During the three months covered by
the statement the traffic of a large
majority of the railroads has been
heavier than ever before, necessitat-
ing the employment of new men in
train and yard work.
The total number of collisions and
derailments was 2,44s, of which 1,444
were collisions and LOLA derailments,
of which 81 collisions and % derail-
ments effected passenger trains. The
damage to cars, engines and roadways
by the accidents amounted So, 1885,
600.
We do not know the sources from
which the Commission gets this in
formation but we donot believe the
figures given are any where near cor
rect. We have something over 200, 900
miles Of railroad in this country with
over 1000, 900 men employed directly.
Among train men accidents are of
any frequent occurance. We belive
there are thousands of such accidents
that are never heard of beyond the
train dispatchers Office. The num-
Der of collisions reported show that
our system of moving trains Is still
far from perfect.

We the undersigned business men
and taxpayers of Logan City, respect
fully suggest to your Honorable body
that whereas the taxpayers in over

the building of an electric light plant
and whereas the State of Utah's bid
for the same was accepted, but after
wards refuse to pay for same without
decision of the Supreme Count of
their legality and whereas the case
has been continued month after
month until over one half Of your
term of Office has now expired and not

same time the prices of lights have
been raised to an exorbitant and un
bearable price. The street lights
alone having been raised to 1920 pei
month or per cent on their entire
plant. For the above reason ant
others that might be mentioned, We
now ask that no more time or money
be spent in court delays but that tn,
case be ordered continued until fur
Their notice and that you appoint
some responsible man outside of you
honorable body with authority to g
east and sell the bonds
Should it then prove that none viii
buy them without Supreme Cour
decision then you will be justified II
taking chances in an expensive Law
suit but not until then.
Hoping you will move In the matte

SOME THINGS 1T WON'T PAY
TO DO

The following are some of the things
it is not profitable for the farmer to
do: He should not try to farm without
manure, and should not plant more
acres than he can take good care of.
He should not work with old and poor
tools nor SOW unclean seed. He must
not keep poor stock, as poor COW
eats as much as good one. He
should not buy at public sales what Is
not needed simply because it sells
cheap. Hogs, sheep and cattle
should not be allowed to wander
at their will over their owners and
the neighbours premises. The barn.
yard should not drain into the public
road nor into stream, as is often the
case Cattle should not be allowed
to eat fodder from the stack; 1t saves
a little labor but waste will make
the farmer poor. TO leave tools Of
any kind lying out in the weather or
to put them away unceaned is q bad
practice. Cattle must not be turned
out onto bare fields in cold weather.
An orchard should not be planted
and the cattle allowed to browse the
trees. Vacant places should not be
left in young orchard, nor should a
young orchard remain in grass too
long. OF course, all farmers know
weeds should not be allowed to occupy
any portion of the farm, and bushes
should not occupy several rods OF
groung along the fence and road.
1t is a thoughtless and very danger
Gus thing for farmer 20 put his name
on any paper presented by stranger.
Ii is careless to buy trees Of perfect
stranger, also groceries and such
articles as are easily adnlterated.
Nine times out of ten one will be
cheated by so doing. BUY OF
your home merchants, ". Clark,

Sugar Beet Growing.

There is tendency in the county to
blame the Sugar Factory for the part
ial failure of the beet crop last season.
AS the failure was due mere to the
dryness of the season than to any
other cause, we should be more con-
sentative in our criticisms. Every
thing now indicates an abundant wat.
er supply for the coming season and a
very favorable season for the beet
growers and we believe that our farm.
ers will not miss it by increasing theil
acreage over last year.

lines will be more sharply drawn
and the fight continued even wlth
more vigor than heretofore.
Mr.. Fox was conservative candi-
date, and naturally it is to be ex-
pected that this strength will remain
with the conservative element. 1t is
generally recognized that Judge
Critz will receive the major portion
of the Fox following, and a portion
of it Will also go to Senator Noel.
Mai. Vardaman does not expect to
share in any of the vote or assurances
of support which had been garnered
I'm by the former congressman, and
it Is naturally TO he expected that IN
view of the fact that the Fox and
Critz platforms are more nearly
similar than those of the other can
didates that Judge Critz will get the
lions share of the leavings.

tlOnably fact that at its present

former has good grounds to rejoice
over his prospects.
Mai. Vardaman still confinently
asserts that he will be nominated the

optimistic, and are now making wild

but with the new order of things a

vades that Judge Critz will be the

be narrowly watched by the sup

There is no indication of wrong
criticism among the people generally,
and what changes are yet to take
place will be among the individual
suffrages.
Mr.. Fox was accused of being the
candidate of the so-called jackson

sarily causes the abandonment of

Special to the Daily Progress.

Jackson, April'27.-The retirement
of ex-Congressman A. F. Fox from
the race for governor has greatly
simplified the contest which has
been waged with unusual spirit for
the past two months or more, and
the political prospects now see some
rays of light ahead on which to ven

contest.
The situation is being thoroughly
studied in its new phase, and the
arties who are interested have COM
menced some close figuring on the
relative strength of the three candi-
dates left in the field, Messrs. Critz,
Vardaman and Noel.
Since commencement Of the cam
palgn it has been universally adj

waged between the conservative and
the political elements, and the re-

ALLEN DIED SATURDAY.

1t is learned that the young man
Allen of North Carolina, who was so
seriously injured at the mill at Nor
riston last Saturday morning by hav-
ing a log rolled over his body, died
late that evening. He died out at the
mill, as he could not stand the trip
from that place to Hattiesbuurg,
where it was intended to put him in
one of the infirmaries.
Nothing is known of him except
that he was a mill laborer and his
home was in North Carolina.

BADLY HANGED.

Montgomery, Ala, April 25.-A
special to the Advertiser from Annis-
ton, Ala, says:
It is learned today that Tom Barth,
the negro hanged in Wedowee two
weeks ago, is now able to sit up and
may recover. After the negro was
pronounced dead he was cut down as
usual and shortly afterwards began to
show signs Of life. A physician was
summoned and applied restoratives and
the man is now able to sit up. This
was the first man ever hanged i'll Ran
dolph county and it is thought that the
officials were excited and allowed him
to be cut down before he was dead.
The Progress has the highest Opin-
ion of Judge Critz and believes that
he would make most excellent gov
ernor, and it would like to see him in
the executive chair, but facts are facts
and they cannot be hid under bushel
measure for any great length of time.
The race lies between Noel and Var
daman with fair support for judge
Critz. 1t is going to be nip and
tuck between Noel and Vardaman
with Noel gaining ground every day.
There is no mistake if the papers of
the state can be taken as a criterion.
Noel's logic is sound to the core.
There is no mistake about that. Var
daman will not dispute this fact-he
cannot-while at the same time the
stand taken by Vardaman on the divi-
sion of the school fund is endorsed,
though it may not be practically at
this time, by more people than one
would think unless he should go out
and talk to them.
CIRCUIT COURT PROCEEDINGS.
After the jury had been empaneled
last Saturday three witnesses for the
state were examined and three up to
noon today. The evidence of the
womna, Mrs. Hutchinson, was the
most Manageable presented. She
swore that she saw Mccormick shoot
the second shot at Lawrence, the first
shot having attracted her attention,
she turned in time to see the second
shot and that she was certain that
Mccormick did the shooting.
1t was also brought out in the
testimony that after Lawrence was
