The precipitation during the week was generally above the normal with an excess of .19 of an Inch, and .47 of an inch at SaU Lake City and Modena respectively. In general, however, reporta Indicate that the great-ra- t excess was over the southern count ries. though the storm that brought (he rain was general over tho state. ocetrring on the 27tb, 38th and 29th in the south, and on the 29th in the north portion of the state. The temperature was slightly below the average, eejieclaliy over the northern and central counties, light frost being reported In a few exposed localities in the northern counties, but no damage of consequence was observed as crops were too far advanced, and the temperature was only low enough to cause slight Injury to the tenrterest vegetation, such as potato and tomato vines. In the middle portion of the week violent thunderstorms were frequent aud In many instances were accompanied by blgh wind and bail, resulting in a great deal or damage in many localities. Fruit was blown from tbe trees, and the trees were badly broken, and in many places were uprooted; grain waa badly lodged and In many Helds suffered considerable loss by being shattered out with hailstones. This delayed harvesting, but at the close of the week the work of harvesting was being resumed. In general, wheat, oats, rye, barley, alfalfa, and sugar beets indicate good yields. Wheat on arid farms, and rye are being threshed in portions of the state, and fall wheat and barley are being cut. Oats are progressing finely, and are ripening In many favorably situated fields. Tbe second cutting of lu cerne Is being stacked in fairly good condition, except in the high mountain valleys, where the first crop of hay was late. In Waahlngton county the third crop is well advanced toward maturity. Apricots, peaches, early apples, and vegetables are plentiful and are being kept on tbe markets in large quantities. Berries are nearly all gone. The rains during the week relieved the droughty condition of the range and as a consequence stock have plenty of feed. Irrigation water was replenished, and the present supply la reported to be ample for carrying nil crops to maturity.

Many indeed among our people have already turned toward you aa a suitable candidate to be elected directly tu that great office. It Is the earnest wish of your party and of many good citixens who have no party affiliations that you shall accept this nomination, sfji that you shall be elected in November to lie the next of the Tiiited States. In expressing to you this wish, we lieg to add an assurance of our own personal respect, esteem and loyalty. Senator Fairbanks was given an ovation ae he visa lo accept the nomination. He said: Mr. Root and Gentlemun of tbe Committee: I thank you for the very generous terms In which you have connotification of my veyed Ihe offirial nomination for of the Culled Slates. The unsolicited and unanimous nomination by the Rebubli-en- n party is a call lo duty which 1 am pleased to obey. 1 accept Ihe romtulssiun which yon bring with a profound sense of tbe dignity and resisiiislbilities of ihe exalted posit iou for which I have been nominated. My utmo-- t endeavor will lie lo discharge iu full measure Ihe irnsl, if tbe action of the convention shall meet the approval of Ihe American people. The platform adopted by the is sn explicit and emphatic declaration of the principles in entire harmony with those policies of our party which have brought great honor and prosperity to our common country, and whieli, if continued, will bring ue lllie blessings ia the future. The monetary and economic policies which have been no forcibly lie at the very foundation of our industrial life, and are essential to fullest development of our national strength. They give vitality lo our manufactures and commerce, and if imimired and overthrown, there would Inevil ably ensue a period of industrial depression, to the serious Injury of the vast interests of both labor and capital. The Republican parly since It preserved the Integrity of tbe Republic and gave freedom to tbe oppressed, never rendered n more Important service lo tbe country than when it t tabllshed tbe gold standard. Under It we have Increased our currency aupply sufficiently to meet the normal require-nien- ts of business. It la gratifying that, the convention made frank and explicit declaration of tbo Inflexible purpose of Ihe party to maintain tha gold standard. It le essential not only that the standard should be as guod as tbe best ia the, world, but that the people should have the assurance that it will be so maintained. Tbe enepilea of sound money were powerful enough to suppress mention of the gold standard fa the platform lately adopted by tbe Democratic National convention. The leader of Democracy In two great national campaigns bas declared since tbe adjournment of the convention that aa soon as the election le over, be will undertake to organise the forces within .tjte Democratic party for the nrikt national contest, for the purpose of advancing tbe radical policies for which hie element of the party elands. He frankly says that the money question le for the present In abeyance. In view of these palpable facts, It is not the part of wisdom to abandon our vigilance In of onr safeguarding the integrity money system. W must have no only a President who Is unalterably committed to tbe gold standard, but both bouses of eongreaa In enitre accord with him upon the subject. In Congress and not with the .President reels tbe supreme power to determine tbe standard of our money. Though Fite chief executive should the acting congress oppose, conwithin Its Independent stitutional authority, could at any time overthrow or change tbe monetary standard.

The convention was wise not only-iits enunciation of party policies, but In its nomination of a candidate (or the presidency. During the last three years. President Rooaevelt has been confronted with large and serious question. These he has met and solved with wisdom and courage. The charges made against him in the Democratic platform find an irrefutable, answer In bis splendid administration, never surpaaiied in all the history of the Republic and never equalled by th! party who seeks to discredit it. The election uf tbe President i imperatively demanded by those whose success depends upon t ha continuance of a safe, conservative and effinient administration of public affairs. We have an ample record of deeds doue. of beneficent things accomplished iu the public interest. The vast business of the government has been well administered.
