ton has spent good deal more money
than it has received, much more than
the taxpayers generally suppose; it
has squandered a large surplus re-
ceived from the preceding administra-

AMATEUR MIRAcLE-WoRKER.

over in Denver the other day the
Holy Jumpers had a conference of
their disciples. While it was in ses-
sion Mrs. Alma White of the Pentecost-
al Union, Denver, announced a re-
markable occurrence, so remarka BILE
that her account is the only adequate
report of the affair. "A miracle has
been performed in Denver, the first on
earth for almost 1000 years." said Mrs
White. Il have no doubt there will
be many to scott at such things among
us, but we have refrained from telling
them because of their astonishing ma
ture. However this one, which was
this week. was so evident to US all
that it viii remain quiet no longer.
I'VE have 100 to feed in here, beside
the 200 visitors attending the meeting
On Saturday we baked bread, and
when Thursday arrived, the next reg
ular baking day, the cooks found in
the pantry just as much bread as we
had baked. On Monday the Saturday
bread was almost gone, but on Tues
day the Lord had multiplied our sub
stance as he did the loaves and fishes
TO feed the 5000. 1t was indeed a
miracle"
Mrs. White may think this is re-
nlarkable, and in a way it is surpris-
ing in this day of trust bakeries and
short weight loaves. But here in Salt
Lake almost as astonishing things
have happened. The city administra-

NO FUSION.

In one, and possibly two, of the nu-
nicipal wards the Republicans have
suggested to the Democrats a plan of
fusion on aldermanic tickets by which
one candidate on each side would be
apportioned and then both supported
by the fusion forces
The scheme has no approval from the
most prominent of the party leaders,
and it would be unwise in the extreme
TO attempt such a thing. There is no
more reason why the Democrats should
fuse with either of the opposing par
ties than there is for abandoning its
party organization entirely. The Re
publicans have been most bitter in
their enmity for the Democracy, they
were responsible for the defeat of the
Morris ticket two years ago. though
they had no chance of electing Lynch.
and their proposal for fusion now is
born of the desperation of foreseen
defeat.
If the Democrats of Salt Lake and
of each municipal ward ever had good
reason for maintaining a solid front
against all their enemies that reason
is apparent now. There should be no
fusion or talk of fusion in any ward
on any office; and if by any chance a
compromising alliance were made,
The Herald certainly would refuse to
support the candidates who were to
be the benefciaries of the arrange
ment
The Republicans are already beaten
all along the line; they would. of
course, be glad to secure crumbs of
comfort by fusion at almost any price
But such an arrangement as they sug-
gest could only be made at the sacri-
flee Of party integrity. and it would
ALLEVIATE those real Democrats who will
stay by the party only so long as it
maintains its attitude of uncomprom-
Using hostility alike to Smoot Repub-
licanism and American" Republican
ism. To accept the Overtures of the
Republicans on this point and at this
stage of the fight would be the read
lest way TO promote the decentralization
of the Democratic party, and that is
probably the object sought by the men
who originated the proposition and
hope the Democrats will go into the
game without considering the conse-
quences.
In all the unpleasantness and con-
troyersy and guerilla warfare that has
been inflicted on the state and city by
the two warning factions of the Re
publican party, the Democracy of
Utah has kept its record clear of al
liances with either that would embrof
II with both. Neither now nor at any
future time can the party afford to
mar its record and remove the last
obstacle to an open. undisguised fight
on religious lines by entering into a
compact. however insignificant its ap-
parent bearing, with either the Amer
leans" or Republicans.

BETTING ON GRAY HAIRS.

Philip Hymes of the United States Steel
corporation and half a dozen friends went
to the Paradise roof garden last night,
and in the intermission one of the friends.
noting the spot light on top of the steel
mans head, amused himself by pulling
out a long gray hair.
You're getting gray, old man." he said.
TN give you so cents for every gray
hair you can find in my head" retorted
Mr. Hymes.
Thereupon his friend pulled out two
more and collected a dollar. A stranger,
sitting across the aisle, butted in at this
point with the remark that he was in on
that 5O-cent thing, too, and grabbed a
handful of Mr. Hymes' locks. Whereat
MT. Hymes, naturally enough, stood up
and batted the stranger in the face.
Under direction of the members the
party adjourned to the street, and there
the fight speedily resolved itself into a
bet Mr.. Hymes wagering 500 that the
stranger couldn't find three gray hairs.
Then he put his head under an electric
light and submitted to inspection. The
stranger looked and looked, but the best
he could find was one.
Mr.. Hymes cashed on the bet. and spent
the hundred on pink tea for the party.

PROSPERITY IN POTATOES.
kansas City Starr

Potatoes 81 a bushel and yielding from
$50 to 200 bushels to the acre, with rail-
road switches running right through the
fields. Such is the story of the pros
perity of the potato grower Of Indian Ter
ritory this season.
of course, every potato grower did not
raise 200 bushels to the acre, and some
of their potatoes did not grade up to
the dollar class. But Will Garrett mar
keted 200 bushels from an acre on his
farm and got 81 a bushel for them, and
there ere numberless instances where
whole fields are averaging from 125 to
$50 bushels an acre.
The potatoes were planted very early
this season-most of them in February
and the weather conditions at that time
were remarkably good. Later in the sea-
son, however, the weather conditions ap-
peared as bad as it was possible for
them to get. 1t was very cold, there
was lots of rain, and apparently the pO-
tatoes. like all other crops, were doing
no good. 1t has since developed that,
while the potatoes were not making vines,
they were making good root and spread
ing out in the ground. The big surprise
came when the digging began and the
yield was so enormous

"Pioneer" Speaks.

Edwin A. Dixon of the Express spoke
for the pioneer evening paper of the
city. He said that inasmuch as his
pioneer experience dated back two and
One-half years, he felt that he was
eminently qualified to speak as a pio-
neer, as he felt that in any other COM
pany he would be an Old-timer in the
city. His warm and hearty greeting
to The humOrists who travelled so far
to reach the most beautiful spot be-
meath the sun was heartily applauded
by the visitors.
Allen Kelly of the Times told of
some early experiences and the disas-
trous result of his first effort to write
real funny things for publication. His
story of becoming confused with a
certain "Parson" Kelly was one of the
delightful bits of the night.
Fred Wann of the Salt Lake road
told of an experience in Ireland where
the driver of the cart refused to drive
fast on the ground that his horses
were particularly fond of the scenery.
Strickland W. Gillian of Baltimore,
past president of the American Press
HumOrists' association, was introduced
as 'Of the Los Angeles Herald
Gillian was easily next to Dr. Bur-
dette, the star performer of the night,
and his facial expression was not the
least cOnvulsing of q running fire of
witticisms that kept the bubble of
laughter constant throughout the ten
brief minutes he talked. His star story
Will be told a thousand times by those
present who dare to essay a bit Of dia-
lect, but it is safe to say the tellers
will look their audiences over to make
sure none of them heard Gillian last

the beer.
Turns the Tables.
George A. Post made a speech which
outclasesed most of the humorists, and
by its Spontaneous wit cleverly turned
the tables on the POSTMASTER.
Sam T. Glover of the Evening News
quickly made a hit by his allusion to a
certain Quatrain which had brought
him fame and glory, but no gold. MI
Clover made touching reference to the
late Charles DummOnd, the author OF
the "Habitant" and scores of French
Canadian poems, and gave 1.-THE Wreck
of the Julie Plant in a delightful and
finished manner.
DIR. Burdette called on Frank E.
Wolfe of the Herald to make a few
feeble and nebulous remarks" and that
is what he got.
Toastmaster Burdette called on
Frank Starlight, secretary of the Press
Humorists' association, but Searight
was the most modest flower of the
whole bouquet. AS Burdette said, Sea-
right had given up his own business
and devoted his time entirely for many
weeks to doing nothing but making the
convention of the press humorists a
success. But Searight was so anxious
that the men whose happiness for the
week he has taken in his own hands
should have time to tell their stories
that he only told one funny little yarn
and then sat down.
Tom Daily. president of the Press
Humorists, finished the program. In
introducing him POSTMASTER Burdette
declared that only those funny stories
that ended with a bit of pathos were
remembered, and he wanted the even
ings entertainment to live long in the
minds of every one present.
Ends With Benediction.
Daily is noted the world over for his
little bits of humorous verse that leave
just a little sigh at the end, and one
funny Irish dialect story and two
Italian dialect verses were his contri
button to the entertainment. He re-
cited Father Dominick." at the ear
nest request of the entire table. and
Burdette dismissed the assembly with
a benedictiOn and an invitation TO visit
Sunnycrest, his beautiful Pasadena
home, today.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-09-23


The speaker paid a high tribute to
the unconscious humorfst of every day
life who doesn't know he is funny yet
who flags the bread wagon for those
who write because they can't help it.
He referred to the Salt Lake mans re-
marks about the trains that run over
our little system" and said that wes
all right, but he didn't want any of
those same trains to run over his little
system. Gillian said some one who
had preceded him referred to an effort
to keep a paper going in Los Angeles.
Il tried to keep two different papers
going in my lifetime. They went. They
are still gone"
Irwin G. Lewis of the Record made
some clever and bright bits by telling
of some of the humOrists who have
visited Los Angeles, and brought his
best laugh by naming an extremely Sc
rious historical novel dealing with Cal
ifornia of the early days as one of the
funniest things he had ever read.
W. r. Rose, father of the singer, also
of the Plain Dealer rendered a poem
which held all with the depth of its
pathos until he reached the climax in
the last line where the wandering
tramp sprang to the rescue of a little
maiden who had fallen in a vat of beer.
He saved the child by quickly drinking
the beer.
