She passed over Moulina at a quarter before 9 at an, altitude of 400 feet, going at a high rate of speed', and1 apparently. under erfect control. The officers in the car waved their hands in response to enthusiastic cheers ef the people below them. Nothing presaged! the terrible catastrophe which occurred a few minutes later.

As has been so often stated, Utah is relatively defenseless against this disease, because of the peculiar and unusual prejudice existing against vaccination which is the only known method of preventing it. Health officers and all interested in the public welfare should do their utmost to correct the unjustified antagonism to a measure which safely and surely prevents this loathsome disease. All "persons who have not been vaccinated within successfully seven years should promptly have .School children it performed. be vaccinated should especially because of tlfeir. greater liability to contagion in .the school room.

Mr. Taft came out on the rear platform and made a brief speech in which he alluded to the excellent treatment that he had received while in this state, and then Senator Smoot made a short talk. No handshaking was allowed, but Pioneer Sam Whitney managed to squeeze up to the front and the President noticing him reached out his hand and gave the veteran a hearty handshake.
