Salt Lake, Oct. 22.-This city was
again in darkness last night owing to
a storm. For "a hours the wind blew
60 miles an hour, but abated before
midnight. Two thousand trees are
down, telephone communication is
cut off, chimneys and walls are down
and many residences unroofed.
Three men are reported killed and
1t is feared that there are many other
casualties. The district between
Pennington and Brigham City was the
storm center.
An automobilist reports haystacks
were carried for miles, barns were de-
molished and farm houses overturned.
No trains have left on the Oregon
Short Line since Saturday afternoon.
A freight train was wrecked and the
Pennington depot blown across the
track, 1t being impossible for wreck
ing crews to work in the fierce wind.
Waves on Great Salt lake were 20
feet high. The Utah Independent
packing plant was burned during tn :
storm with loss of 100000.
Three frame houses in North Salt
Lake were blown over and destroyed
by fire. The street car service is be-
ing resumed today.
1t was the worst storm in the his
tory of Utah.

Head Shipped From Pcndleton Since
Last March.

One of the largest cattle shipments
from this city for some time has just

The cattle being shipped are beef
COWS and steers, which were recently
purchased in the John Day country
by j. C. Lonergan, buyer for the
Frye Bruhn company. The trainload
Saturday contained S76 head of cows
and 153 steers. They were from the
ranch of John Hyde of Izee. 1t is

head have gone from Pendleton since
last March. Most of that number has
been shipped this fall. OF the cattle
shipped, by far the greater portion has
gone to the Seattle market. The Frye

Many prominent officials of the
Farmers Cooperative and Educa-

the explanations of the buslness-like
methods adopted by the southern
unions will be OF incalculable benefit
to the wheat and corn growers.

Next Falls State Fair.

The grounds and buildings are ready,
and the people of Alabama desire to
come to Birmingham in October, when
the cotton is either picked or dis
counted All know in October how full
the purses are to be, and all will plan
accordingly All will make purchases
and journeys to suit the crops. This
is one reason why a state fair should
be held in Birmingham.
Another reason why one should be
held is to redeem the reputation of the
fair association in several particulars.
Instead of having a poor show Of cat
tie, sheep, hogs and other animals an
effort should be made next fall to Sc
cure the best display of live stock ever
seen in this state. This can be accom-
plished by going to work at once.
There were horses enough last year,
and plenty of exhibits In the various
DulldlngS, put the pens Tor cattle and
sheep and hogs were not filed This
should be attended to this year.
In fact, there is no reason why the
coming fair should not be made the
very best the state has ever known.
No city has better grounds or finer
buildings. All is new and in excellent
order The trolley service is ample
and without fault The merchants
have but to organize and put their
shoulders and pocket books to the
movement to secure a fair that will
attract visitors from every county in
the state. Low railway rates and fine
exhibits make a great fair.
