AN EVERY DAY MARVEL.

On Thursday a terrific storm swept
the Gulf OF Mexico and the southern
gulf coast of the United States, the
wind reaching the unprecedented veloc-
ity of eighty miles an hour, and carry
ing havoc in it's course; and yet the
loss of life is a negligible quantity.
Fifty years ago such a storm would
have meant the destruction Of shipping
all over the gulf and loss of hundreds,
perhaps thousands, Of lives. The diff
ference in conditions is all due to the
development of meteorology as a SCI
ence and the ability Of the weather
bureau to predict storms and give
warning in advance.
In this case, the bureau had notified
the whole coast of it's danger forty
eight hours before the storm broke, so
that shipping and coast residents were
able to seek refuge and prepare for
trouble. If this does not approach the
miraculous it certainly is marvellous.
one can imagine what would have hap
pened TO the man who would have
dared suggest the possibility Of such
fore-knowledge OF providential doings
along i'm Cotton Mather's time, or
earlier.
/ AS of old. "the wind bloweth where ii
Iisteth. and thou nearest the sound
/ thereof. but canst not tell whence II
cometh or whittier it goeth;" the be-
! ginning and ending of storms are still
a mystery, but mans growth in knowl-
! edge and power enable him to tell when
the great wind is coming and what di-
rection 1t will take. foreshadowing the
day when more of the now unknown
solutions of great problems will be as
simple as the forecast Of today's
| weather.

that has been made against him on the
ground of his church connections.
Shameless and utterly dishonest as
this appeal is, 1t has the single merit
of openness. The. people are warned in
advance as to the plan of campaign
Smoot and his machine have adopted,
they know now that he can only hope
to win by asking Democrats TO abandon
every conviction they have ever had,
by urging them to use their church
membership for political purposes in
his behalf by widening the breach nc
has already made between friends and
business associates-and all for what?
For the perpetuation of a machine so
odious that 1t handed over the city Of
Salt Lake to an American" admins
tration. a machine so unspeakably un-
At to be trusted that it named a Glas-
mann for postmaster of Ogden and a
Booth for United States district attor-
ney; machine so demoralized and
without influence that the president of
the United States went out Of his way
to appoint Colorado man as bank ex-
aminer to succeed a Utah man In spite
of the recommendation of the entire
Utah delegation in behalf of another
Utah man. ~
The Herald refuses to believe for a
moment that any Democrat will de-
sert his party allegiance on the appeal
of such a machine. It refuses to be-
lieve that the independent vote will be
fooled into giving Smoot even the pitt
full showing Of votes he was able to
muster in the last city campaign
through his candidate Lynch. 1t re-
fuses to believe that anybody, Demo-
crat or Republican, Will vote to con-
tinue the machine in power. On the
contrary. II believes that Smoot and
political defeat and oblivion; that they
will go on the rocks with their machine
| in November and wreck it so thorough
/ ly they will be compelled to reoTganize
| the party and permit the rank and file
some voice in the management of party
affairs.
The people are tired Of Smoot and
Smootism; tired of the Pussy Jim
mys." the Sprys and Booths and Cal
listers; tired of the unending guerilla
warfare in politics which is ready to
sacrifice any interest, any individual
a whole state, If need be- to save the
machine.
Just one way is open for the exter-
minatiOn OF the machines, Republican
and American" and the rehabilitation
of Utah at home and abroad. That way
is the path marked out by the Demo
cratic party. 1t alone is identified with
no warning faction; 1t alone is able to
nominate a ticket pledged to no man. to
no hatreds, to no selfish purpose. II
will go into the campaign under obi
CATION to nobody except the people OF
Utah; and to them it pledges honestly
the settlement Of Utah's most pressing
problem-the restoration Of pottica
peace with honor, the administration OF
government on a business basis. the
RELOCATION Of factionists to obscurity
and the upbuilding of the state.
On that platform the Democrats ex-
pect to win, and will win; and no sin
lister appeal to religious fears. no CT!

INDIANS CLASH
 WEST END TODAY
GREAT SPORT AS SEEN IN TIME OF JOHN sMlTH-sAME PLAY AS CAUSED PocAHoNTAs TO CLAP HER BROWN MITs.

Thlrty-hve Choctaw braves stepped from the Alabama Great Southern last night shortly after Il o'clock and they at once made their presence known. These Indians will divide themselves into two teams, and this afternoon there will be a wonder full sight and strange doings presented at West End park. It will not be the sport played by Dad" Vaughn and his crew but great game of ball just the same.
 The Indians will parade the streets to- day at noon, and this afternoon will play ball. Each side will number some fifteen men, and the rough and tumble sport will be of great interest. It will be the first game played in Birmingham since the days when this spot was covered with trees and the big braves wooed the sweet Winonas on Village creek. The game is the national sport of the Indians. and no rule has been changed since John Smith and Pocohontas, drinking dope through the same straw, saw the game years and years and years ago in old Virginia.
 It is said that the Indians are paid $2 each per day and a purse of s250 is of- fered the winning side in each game. The contest begins this afternoon at O clock. There will be other games tomorrow and Saturday afternoons.

REMEMBRANCE OF THE LITTLE FELLOW RECALLED DAYS OF 'e2, WHEN HE WAS A STAR lNDl- GATOR.

When Umpire Mclaughlin walked into the field yesterday afternoon, clothed in the large and fancy surcoat of Manager Harry Vaughn there was a spontaneous ripple of merriment pervadlng the entire audience.
 Mclaughlin was unique figure He is a little fellow. with d timid expression, and slouch hat He has keen eye, q good voice. and his work yesterday was all to the good. To the fans of the latter day Mclaughlin was stranger But to the older heads he was familiar sight. No sooner had he made his intro ductory bow than the older fans dreamed dreams of other days when tNe first and only legitimate pennant was won by Bir- mingham.
 Mclaughlin is d product of the old school. He umpired in the southern league in 1892. the year in which Blf- mingham won the pennant He was then famed for his keen eye in the judging
 
 He got goodly number of assists, hah 4 dozen in all and one put out the latter coming as the result of line drive.

In the eighth he managed to rip off a single and even tualy made the circuit of the paths The right fielder was really entitled to two bases. Mclaughlin who officiated yes- terday, called the fourth ball q strike in the sixth. Smith, thinking that he had received transportation. walked to first and was amazed when the umpire de- clared him out
 On account of Illness, caused by the ball which struck him during the game Tuesday afternoon Pfennlnger failed to report for duty. After the start was de- layed for some time Manager Vaughn and Muaney consented that Mclaughlin, an old official, get again into harness. He gave entire satisfaction.

Before departing Manager vaughn de- clared that the old ginger had all re- turned, and that the men had entered the fight for the pennant with renewed strength
