closer the moving wheels than do the other dogs,
and is envied by them accordingly.
He is really the most inveterate barker Of the en-
tire brood. The Of them bark only when wheels
are passing. They seem to have objection to moth
ing in the world much the movement of life in
Salt Lakes main thoroughfare. But the white Spitz
never allows himself a moment of silence. And in
the quiet hours of the morning when the rest chase
wheel up street a block, and then return pantngly
the search for another-this white fellow goes UP
to the American party campaign advertisements, and
barks at them
His antpathy clearly is to a wheel-or anything
else that goes around in a circle. Which will account
for his barking at the bombast bulletin board.

WEEK OF HOMECOMING.

Mant, Utah, has caught the spirit of homecoming
week. And from the 22d to the 18th of November all
the former residents of that good town are to be
called home.
Nothing finer than that be arranged by the
people of any city. Out of Utah communities have
gone thousands of and daughters who have tried
the ways Of the world in other places. They must
retain love for the old scenes, and longing for the
old friends. Their returning will be blessed thing
for those who have known them-and lost. And it will
be one of the happiest memories for the exiles
turn their faces even for week to tina pleasant old
town by the mountains
A good many cities of the east have adopted the
custom in recent years and it makes long for
the "od-time boys and girls" to read of the happy
incidents in the week of homecoming everywhere
We congratulate Manti on the happiness in store
for it. And we congratulate also the men and the
of increasing years who have tried their for
tunes or pursued their happiness in other scenes.
May the spirit of love and friendship be upon them

Berlin would permit the line to be formed until
o'clock in the morning, and the sleepless people
jockeyed for position all night long, and then made
rush for the box Office shortly after dawn.
American inventors have provided a better way of

POTATOES ON DRY LAND.

Two years ago A. J. Stuckey, now Senator Stuckey,
reported success with potatoes on the dry land in
Tooele county. He had raised them without the aid
of irrigation
This year William H. Newman comes in from Riv-
erOn with samples of the finest tubers that have been
seen. They fairly premium potatoes, whether or
not they ever were exhibited in competition. And,
like Senator Stuckey he has made success of them
without irrigation.
There is the suggestion and the guaranty for every

more rapidly than is the supply.

WHAT THEY DID TO THOMPSON.

Bosses of the American party declare they have
the unqualified support of the business of the
city. And they have some of it, of course. All men
cannot alike.
But we desire to say to those business who
believe the success of the Bransford ticket at the
polls would be for the benefit of the city. that the
managers Of the Bransford party, and even Mr..
BransfOrd himself, do not follow the business mans
rule in their conduct of public affairs
That is the weakness of a party resting on the
feversh foundation of religious intolerance 1t is not
especially because these men hate the MormOns. 1t
IS because the temptation to city affairs in an
unbusinesslike is strong for the average
politician, when he has such chance
Business like business administration Of
municipal affairs. They like TO improvement but
they don't like to money spent in its acquir
ing than is necessary. They want employees to have
a fair wage but they don't want any graft
And there is graft in the present city administra-
ton. There is bound to be so long as the managers
of the city party blind the eyes of their follow
ers with the dust clouds Of hate.
1t will be remembered that they drove Ezra
Thompson from the office of mayor because he would
not abandon business methods in the conduct Of city
affairs. They did make him consent to things
which he should have stood against but they did it
with promises never to demand such things again.
And they broke their promises They insisted so con-
stanty upon his shutting his eyes their graft that
quit the office to which the majority of his fellow c-
zens had elected him.
They had chance to try him out in the matter
of the Knudsen water right. The grafters demanded
over a hundred thousand dollars for those rights
Mayor Thompson figured on the proposition. and be-
leved that thirty thousand ample: and that was
the limit of his yielding. There bitter and pro-
longed fight, but they finally came Ezra Thomp-
figures and accepted the thirty thousand There
wasn't much graft in it they had hoped and
they hated him just in proportion to the easy money
they held he had deprived them of.
1t is perfectly known that they hate John Brans-
ford that they have fought with him time after time
that they didn't want him nominated this time And
perfectly understood that If they elect him they
will control him
or he will be driven from Office Just as Ezra
Thompson driven.
They don't want business administration, and
they don't want any restraint on their grating Men
who want the affairs of the city conducted on the fair
lines Of commercial honesty and efficiency will not
vote for the American party ticket.

WHO WANTED THAT THREE THOUSAND
DOLLARS?

What has become of that Pat Moran claim for
three thousand dollars for controlling the flood waters
of City creek the time of the spring freshet? Who
was father of that BILL and why wasn't it pushed?
Why was it dropped the moment the white light OF
publicity was turned upon it, and how long will it
be after the Bransford Endorsement is recOrded-h
that time shall be-until the bill for the three
thousand viii be dragged from its hiding, and rail-
roaded through the council?
1t will be remembered that City creek was very
badly behaved stream Of water for few days i'll the
spring All the street department teams were busy
and some one called Pat Moran to send such teams
and men as he could spare. Pat recognized himself
as the official contractor of Salt Lake and sent the
help.
Sending is his strong suit. And next meeting night
of the council he sent in bill for three thousand
dollars for his one days work.
The thing in fair way TO approval and pay
ment, when James Murdoch, of the best friends
the people had in the council made little calcu-
lation, and announced that the usual five dollars
a day, Pat must have had six hundred teams and
drivers at the creek that day and he wanted to know
if there were that many teams the job.
Defenders of the graft hurriedly declared that
there not six hundred teams at the oodside-of
course; but that in of great public need, such
that of the high water better price than the
ular expected to be paid.
Mr.. Murdoch conceded the point. and responded
that even if the price dollars day for man
and team-whch would have been big for even city
contractor to expect-that would three hundred
teams and drivers; and he wanted to know if Pat
had served the city with that many the day in
question.
Then there was a moment of embarrassed silence,
and Candidate-Recorder Moreton to the emer-
gency and read the next communication.
Pats bill for three thousand dollars dropped with
sly, sckening sigh and has not since been openly
heard from.
But the who behind the graft at the time
of introducing the bill, simply say wait till win
the election and that three thousand will be paid"
In which event Pat will get what the bosses con-
cude is his fair share and the rest of the Doodle will
be divided among the grafers who vote for the claim
