Daisies make for simplicity with him, but not with me when they are spoken of twice in the same article. He says tis and forsooth with a villainous gusto. You used to say that when a man begins to ride Pegasus he must stick on until the beast bucks then the ride is over. Somehow I thought of that as I read the article and couldnt help seeing his frantic efforts to stick on! His long legs dangled loose from the stirrups and even escaped the road now and then, but there was something majestic in the way he held his head. HAMCKltF. PROVO LETTER. al- Provo City, Utah, Sept. 11. The Democrats, led by the brother of Judge King, are proposing in this city the same program as outlined for Salt Lake City. Here tho followers of Jefn ferson call It a movement, but under the surface there is the same discontent as bubbles forth in the state capital. J On the other hand, there is an element of younger Democrats who have not been discouraged by defeat, who are denouncing Judge King in unmeasured terms for his craven leadership. To this class belong Wm. E. Rydalch, the meteoric young orator of the last state campaign. He is going to carry the fight against the cowardly King condut into the next state self-denial- ....

A large party, headed by Senator Loose, went to the pumping station today to inspect the real source of the diminution of the lake. At the rate at which the pumps are now going, it is estimated that In another month the lake will not be more than three feet deep at the deepest place. The wettest kind of a winter will not bring back the lake to its normal condition. The fisb -- will all be destroyed and several lovely resorts injured beyond repair. Several damage suits of resort proprietors are already said to be brewing. Salt Lake county itself is making a mistake, for it is killing the goose that laid the golden egg. Jt jc The Woman's Republican club had a delightful outing today to the Provo lake resort. Judge Booth and James Clove made addresses, and several songs and recitations enlivened the occasion.
