In such circumstances 1 should tender
to you my resignation. L do so with

II wish to express my sense of the

and wish also to congratulate the

AT the time that he made the first

THE RAINBOW BRIDGE.

The National Geographic Magazine
for November carries a very Guc de
scripton of the great Rainbow Natural
Bridge of southeastern Utah. The article
is profuscly illustrated. and it shows
the bridge from varioss points of view
and in sections, This Rainbow bridge
is much the largest of any of the ma
tural bridges in Utah. The Sipapu

is 220 feet high, with q span of 26S
feet, "A width of 81 feet, and

90 feet in thickness. The Owachomo
(Rock Mound) or Edwin or Little
Bridge, is 100 feet in height. has $50
foot span. is 2S feet in width, and 8
feet in thickness. But the Baroholnl
(Rainbow) or NonnezoShe, (Stone
Arch) has height of 800 feet, q span
of 27S feet, width Of SO feet, and

is clearly the king of all the natural

STATE TEACHERS CONVENTION,

| There is in session in this city q
| body OF teachers, women and men
whose work is of the very highest
value 10 every inhabitaut Of this State,
We refer TO the convention of teach
crs known as the Utah Educational
Association. More than two thousand
teachers from the schools OF this State
are in attendance at this convention,
and programme. beneficial in its pnr-
poses and educational in its details. is
well presented for the different days
which tho convention will be in scs.
sion.
Arrangements are made besides. to
have special lectures by experts in edu.
cational work. and papers in which
the advancement of the science OF
teaching will be the theme.
Yesterday saw the opening session OF
the teachers convention, the addresses
OF welcome. and the response. 30 that
the association may now fairly be said
to be launched upon its work.
The welcome of the association to
the city WAS 6ilY extended 10y Cover
nor Sprv and Mnyor Bransford. The
Tribune wishes TO add also in its own
behalf. and In behalf Of the citizen
ship OF Salt Lake. cordial greeting 10
these teachers. aud n cheerful word OF
encouragement in their responsible and
laborious duties. No class of the peo.
pie have quite SO important duty to
bc he
schools. and 10 no class of the workers
does the public confidence extend III
greater degree ihau TO the teachers.
Very seldom Is there any criticism OF
Them, either IN mass or as individuals.
and the public support of thcm, both
professionally and personally. is not
only unlimited, bat cordial and conf
dent. This is precisely as it should be
in every way; and whenever there is
criticism, that criticism should be
based upon the idea that nothing but
the public advantage and tho benefit
of the pupils is in view or desired.
Welcome. We say, 20 all Of the teach
crs. The city grcets you with open
arms, and hopes that there will be
nothing but the most cordial relations
between the teachers as body and as
individuals, not only among the as.
semblagc itself, but between all con
ccrncd and the inhabitants OF this city.
We arc glad to have the teachers with
us. and hope that anything that they
may wish TO increase their facilities
and enjoyment may be cordially ex-
tended TO them at this time.

arily ono would suppose that favored
candidate would be supported in his
policies rather than opposed, But such
is the fact, aud il only emphasizes
anew the old expression that sit Is
different in Utah -
With the 23S electoral votes counted
in the above total for the Republican
nominee (we assume this will be Taft,
there would be, therefore, but twenty
seven votes TO gain from the doubtful
column. Four OF these, those from
Utah, are quite as assured TO Taft as
any of the others, That would leave
but tweuty-tbrce votes to get from tho
other so.callcd doubtful states. Mary
land might fairly he called doubtful,
since it elected Il Republican governor,
but il is placed in tue Democratic col
umn, Tennessee has o Republican gov
eruor, and might fairly he put among
the doubtful States On the other
hand New Mexico has Just had an cx-
ccediugly close election and it also
might fairly be transferred from the
Republican column to the doubtful.
New York went strongly Republican at
the recent election, aud SO might
plausibly he claimed by the Republi-
cans for next year. Still. whou al is
considered and whatever changes might
he suggested. it would appear AS though
one change might fairly he held to of
set another, it is Il clear, case that the
Republican outlook is good deal bet.

taken by him in his visit TO the bridge
in August. 1909, he being one of the
party which consisted of w r. Doug.
lass Of the L. s. Land Office, with four
assistants; Byron Cummings OF the
University of Utah, with three stu
dents. and others named. with some Piute
Indian guides. Mr.. Cummings has dc
scribcd this bridge among others; but
the present article of Mr.. Pogue is
devoted entirely TO the Rainbow bridge
The measurements arc those taken by
Mr. Douglass. but even these do not
give as imposing an idea Of the grau-
deur of this mighty bridge as do the
pictures.
Mr.. Pogue describes the arch as
"carved from n buff-colored, fine
grained sandstone, brick.red upon its
surface aud stained with vertical
strcaks of darker shade He says
further that the origin of the arch Is
simple aud evident; .'it was caused by
the progressive narrowing of the neck
of rueander iutrencbed between high
and steep walls, until an opening was
made through the tongue of intervcn-
ing rock, permitting the stream to cut
oil its meander by flowing beneath the
arch thus formed, The hole, once made,
has been enlarged aud given its pres.
ont shape By the combined action OF
wcatbering, expansion and contraction
due 10 changes in temperature, and
the carving effect Of windblown sand,
all Of which unite to produce the round
cd rock.forms so characteristic of this
region. The abandoned arm of the
meander is present and unmistakable,
indicating the former course pursued
by the stream
The pictures show this mcaudcr very
plainly. and they also show that the
present bed Of the stream under the
natural bridge is something moro than
fifty feet below the original discharge.
The article is very Gne one, aud will
tend argely to increase the fame of tho
great natural bridges of Utah.
