tion on the ticket and allow Roose-
welt to take the second place. This,
1t is said, in Bourne's mind, com
pletely removes the presidents OBJ
jeetions to revoking his famous
pledge written on the night of his
election in 1904. when he stated
that he would never run for presi-
dent again
This latest twist in Bourne's en-
deavor to get the name of Roosevelt
on the next Republican national
ticket has been revealed through
two letters to Mayor l.. n. Blowers,
Of Hood River. from Mr.. John Han
nan, La Follette's private secretary,
introducing John c. Young, Bourne's
private secretary, who recently Wis
tied the state in his employers in

81 am inclosing a letter of intro
duction from Senator La Follette's
private secretary. Mr.. Hannah. which
Is self, explanatory. I trust II you
are doing anything In the senator's
behalf you will make an effort to
come to the state convention from
WasCo county backed by as many
ROoseye't-La Toilette or la Toilette
Roosevelt people as possible.
The other letter advises Blowers
to work against any instructions to
the Republican delegates to the ma
tional convention unless instructed
for Roosevelt and La Toilette or La

''Nearly all over the western part
OF the state Ihe roads are good eleven
months out Of the year and about the
only money necessary TO raise by tax
alton Is in crossing gullies and in dry
sand creeks. / believe that the en-
tire township, or perhaps the entire
county should be required 70 help
pay that expense. 1t would be a
good idea to have a road overseer for
the entire county and raise a county
road tax to be distributed under the
direction Of this county road overseer
and in the places that need the work
the most, giving due regard to the
amount Of travel on the different
roads,"

the Mormon Country

$4.0O0,00O. Its loitiest pinnacle sup
ports the angel. Moroni who revealed
the Mormon religion to Joseph Smith,
Some Of the readers Of the REFLEc-
TOR may have entered this temple but
not so with US.
In this building none are allowed
except those in standing with the
church. Those who use tobacco,
whiskey or proiane language cannot
enter. Here religious rites such as
baptism for the dead and celestial
marriages are performed, that is

ing are married In heaven.
There is so much to be seen in Salt
Lake City that space iorbids mention.
Salt Air Beach on Salt Lake is 16
miles due west Of Salt Lake City.
The Pavilion at cost Of $250,000 is
dome shaped and stands out in the
lake where those who wish to bathe
can slip down into the water and float
to their hearts content. There is
also dancing floor which we were
told would accommodate 1000 couples
at o time,
Salt Lake is about S0x75 miles and
at present contains 26 per cent Of
salt although the per cent Of solid
matter varies as the lake rises and
falls.
We were not afraid Of snakes while
in the lake as we supposed no animal
or vegetable life existed In the water.
Afterwards we learned 1t was full Of
brine shrimp, the larvae Of some in
sectS. Also tiny plants.
Well we are to stay the third night
in the city and there is much to be
seen yet some Of which | shall tell
you later. We think our new home
is an ideal place to live and II this
don't find Its way to the waste basket
| shall tell you more about II soon.
