LEADING CANDIDATES DIS
cUssEp BY sTATisTlcIAN.
Eleven Letters for the Republican Can
dldates and Nine for the Democrat
Ic-some Comparisons With For
mer Presidential Candidates from
Printers Standpoint.

Literally speaking" remarked the
statistical man in the Birmingham Age.
the democratic and republican tick
cts, taken together or singly, man
for man, are the shortest ever put
before the country. Nine letters are
enough for the democratic candidates,
eleven for the republicans. and, singu-
larly enough, the same figures apply
when the presidential and vice presi-
Dental candidates are taken in pairs.
Twenty letters are enough for the two
teams, sever OF which are used more
than one time, so that in reality the
names could be built out of thirteen
pieces of type.
A Very Short Ticket.
THE democratic ticket Is by q wide
margin the shortest ever put out, Polk
and Dallas in 1874, Pierce and King In
1852 and Cass and Butler in 1848, each
taking ten letters. being the only ones
close to the mark. The longest was
Cleveland and Stevenson in 1892, eigh-
teen letters. The republican ticket is
as short as any in history. Grant and
Colfax in 1868, Grant and Wilson in
1872 and Blaine and Logan in 1884,
each with eleven letters, were the only
tickets as short, while the longest was
Roosevelt and Fairbanks in 1904, eigb-
teen lettcr, the same cs the democratic
record.
some Typographical Facts.
Bryan has the shortest name of
any candidate the democrats have ever
named for president, except Polk and
Cass, in 1848. Taft has the fewest
number of letters in his name Of any
republican presidential candidate. In
history. Kern has the shortest name
of any democratic vice presidential
candidate, except King. 1852. Sher-
mans seven letters of curse bar him
from making any universal showing In
the short letter race.
Thousands Saved in Typesettino.
1.-THE short tickets mean the actual
saving OF thousands Of dollars in the
composition of the great mass Of lit
erature that will be used in the cam
paign. Each candidates name will be
used hundreds of thousands Of times,
In every variety of print from the
smallest microscopic type to the yeari
high bill board letters To h~eadliners
the tickets are happy hunting grounds,
to printers they are easy to mold and
set up, and to the public in general
they are practically impossible to mis-
spell or mispronOunce."

Spatta had no business down there below
sub Z, and his presence there cannot be
accounted for. Ashcroft and Tony,
knowing that three men always worked
together surmised that Spatta's partners
might be down on sub 6. and sent word
to General Foreman Smith. When Smith.
Burns and Wilson came into the mine
they were met by Ashcroft and Jackson
Steel, who toll Smith all that had hap
pened. and begged him not to attempt to
go down on sub 6. Smith advised Ash
croft, who was still weak from the eff
fects of the gas. TO go on out of the mine.
and that he and assistants would get the
other men out. Ashcroft repeated his
warning and advised Smith that if any
one went down on sub 6. only one man
should go and he should have a rope
around him, so that the others could stay
up on sub and pull. him out if neces-
sary. This advice. however. was not
taken, and Smith, Burns and Wilson all
went down on sub together

Responsibility for the horrible mine
accident on the Utah Copper companv's
property al Bingham last SATURDAY. night.
wherein four men lost their lives cannot
De placed on any person. according to the
official report of the investigation.
The finding of the investigation into
the accident and the causes that led
thereto were submitted to The Utah Cop
per company officials late Yesterday by
Mine superintendent ]. ID. Shilling and
conducted the inquiry.
Glowing tribute is paid to the heroism
Of Kent smith, George Wilson, Hugh
Burnes and Dominick Spatta, the four
disaster
The statement made by General Super
lntendent r. c. GemmeIl of the Utah
copper company on the report of Messrs.
Smiling and Hayes IS as follows:
The investigation shows that no one
was 10 blame Tor the casualty by which
Kent Smith, Hugh Byrnes. George VIII
son and Doninick Spatta lost their lives.
one can foresee or provide against i:
was the headlong courage OF Smith and
the others that prompted them to go
down on sub TO save men thew thought
were there. but who had not even been
down on SUD for a number of days. II
was heroic and unselfish deed on their
part. and il only makes il all the sadder
to know that their efforts were entirely
useless and of no avail
The men lost their lives in the work
ing known as sub g. main tunnel. This
working Is twenty-five feet below sub
and Is connected with that sub-level by
a raise For the first twelve feet below
the floor of sub this raise is on "a very
Nat slope. 10 4 short level landing and
from there on down the raise is on a
sleeper slope. equipped with regular mine
ladders. Entrance TO these workings is
through Soldier tunnel, thence down lad
ders IN raises to sub S. thence in same
manner down subs and 8. There is
also an entrance TO sub from the face
of the pit. These workings have not bean
used for undergo )und workings since last
July. They originally extended to the
face of the pit. but near the face of the
pit they have been caved In by the blast
ing necessary to break the ore down into
the Dit. The work on subs and now
consists of putting In holes and charges
OF powder at about twenty-five or thirty
feet back from the face of the pit where
the workings are safe, for the purpose OF
blasting the ore off the face of the pi.
outside
1T was known. on Wednesday last that
there was gas on sub s. as two men were
partially overcome there then. Superin-
tendent Shilling at that time issued or
