Show ' , . TIIE BINGHAM NEWS, BINGHAM, UTAH . - "' . ,i k Pulitzer Race Makes New Air History I . Here Is a portrait of Lieut. Rus-sell L. Maughan of the army air serv-- ' ice, who won the Pulitzer trophy at Detroit in a race which shattered three world records and made aerial history. Dased at each of the 15 turns by the force of the wind, worried In kls conscious moments over the 'con-dition of bis wife, who became a moth-er while he was op, Maughan kept tile plane smashing through the air at an average 200 mile an hour cllpfor the entire distance. The greatest speed ship ever bunt was none too good for the winner. Numb, unconscious part of the time, even his shaken, Maughan held the plane to her max-imum effort. It was needed to win. Lieut. Les-ter J. Maltland In a twin Curtlss army racer was on his heels with an aver-age speed ef 203 miles an hour. Malt-lan- d made even better time than his fellow officer In some laps. For fifty kilometers he pushed his machine along at 216.1 miles an hour and for 100 kilometers at 207.3 both world records. Maltland was the only one of the eleven pilots completing the required five laps of the S1.0085-mil- e circuit who really challenged Maughan seriously. Both of them beat the 100 kilometer record established last September by Sadl Le Colnte, the Frenchman, who averaged 202 miles an hour. Both of them, as well as five other contestants, bettered the world mark for 200 kilo-meters set In October of 1921 by George Klrsch, the Frenchman, with a speed of 174.8 miles an hour. - DEMGGitATIG GAINS EFFECTWILD MANY REPUBLICAN STRONGH-OLDS ARE INVADED BY ENEMY FORCES , v Many Stte$ Elect Governors And .

In Ohio, Representative Fess( Kep.f was running a clese race with and leading Senator Pomerene (Dem.), who had been counted a possibility for the Democratic presidential nomina-tion in the event of his success this year. Labor votes, it was said, were cast against Senutor Pomerene be- - cause of his stand on the railroad ; question. ,'. Pennsylvania, going Republican as usual, sent Gilford Pinchot to the gov-ernor's chair, with a Republican ad-ministration, and reelected Senators Pepper and Reed, the latter for both a short and a long term. Senator Gerry (Dem.) Rhode Island, beat the former Republican governor, R, Liv-ingston Beekman. In Texas, where a Democratic nomination Is equivalent t election, Earle B. Mayfleld won the election to the senate. Support of Mayfield by the Ku Klux Klan was en Issue. Senator Polndexter of Wash-ington (Rep.) had a fight on his hands. In West Virginia, the Democratic sen-atorial candidate, M. M. Neely; was leading Senator Sutherland, the Re-publican incumbent. Wisconsin re-turned Senator Lafollette to the sen-ate with a large plurality. In Wyoming, where Representative Monde!l, Republican leader in the house or representatives, was running for the senate, the late returns indi-cated a close race with Senator Ken-drlck (Dem.), who was said to have some Republican support The returns showed the Democrats making all the gains and the Repub-licans suffering all the losses In the house of representatives, and the Re-publicans taking severe defeats In some places where they had not been expected. Victor L. Rerge, the Socialist, was returned to the house from the fifth district of Wisconsin, and thus off-sets the Socialist loss occasioned by the defeat of Representative Meyer London in New York.

That it is the opinion of this Association that the decis-ion of the Supreme Court of the United States should be upheld by every citizen of the United States and every association thereof , and that nothing should be done which would in any way nullify the decision of the high-est court of our land, even in ef-fect, and 3- - That we transmit a copy, of this resolution to our repre-sentatives and senators in Con-gress, as well as other State and Federal representatives. Salt Lake County Advocate SPECIAL MEETING OF THE COMMERCIAL CLUB At a meeting of the Midvale Commercial Club held Wednes-day night representatives of the Union Pacific railroad officials were present and stated their position in the controversy be-tween their company and the Southern Pacific System. On page five of this issue will be found a statement from the U. P. Company which should inter-est every citizen of this commun-ity .At the conclusion of the meeting the following resolution was passed and put on the re-cords of the club: WHEREAS, the MIDVALE COOMMERCIAL CLUB is inter-ested in the development of the State of Utah as well as the City of Midvale, Utah, and WHEREAS, it has, through many years of business with the Union Pacific System, become satisfied that the management of that System is likewise ed in the development of this section of our country, and WHEREAS, it is fully con-vinced that the Union Pacific would be materially assisted in its efforts to promote the wel-fare of this State if the Central Pacific were seggregated from the Southern Pacfic as decreed by the Supreme Court of the United States in an opinion ren-dered by that Court in May last on the ground that the Southern P.ncfic Company has, by routing traffic over its line through El Paso to Galveston and New Or-leans, deprived the Central Pa- - Herrick Says Premier Poincare Is Able Premier Poincare of France la ap-parently qulteji man. Anyway, Myron Herrick, United States ambassador to France, has a high opinion of Usabil-ity of Premier Poincare and of his fitness to handle the present national and International problems of his country. In an estimate In the maga-sln- e Our World of this French leader, the ambassador, says Poincare is not a creative genius, but is a great lawyer wbo relies upon care In examining facts and precision In analysis as to the best guaranties against error. Per-sonally shy, be la not intellectually timid, but Is constitutionally averse to rashness In action. He addresses him-self more generally to reason and omlta all appeal to passion and preju-dice. Poincare resembles Ellhu Root lu some respects, Mr. Herrick says. Like the latter, he Is reputed to be cold, but to those who know him his feelings and passion for the right are readily manifested. Like all French statesmen, he Is provincial. He does not perhaps understand America, Mr. Herrick thinks, or comprehend how much less .our politics are personal than theirs; but he has learned since the war to understand and speak English, and this serves to broaden his horizon. His unfailing memory, his long life of study and Intense Intellectual activ-ity, his wide experience In public affairs, especially in finance, constitute a powerful equipment for meeting present problem ENGLISH PAPER PUBLISHES ANTI-MORMO- N PROPO-GAND- A London paper has just been re-ceived, in its columns Mrs. Lulu Shepard writes a seurrilous ar-ticle against the Mormon church and claims she had been a resi-dent of Salt Lake City for twenty five years, therefore, Is well ac-quainted with her so-call- ed "facts". She charges the Mor-mons have allured to Utah from Great Britain some twenty thou-- . ' ' ' sand girls. She further says, "It is often asked who girls do not return from Salt Lake City when they discover the state of af-fairs. It is because the 'Mormon' priests rule by terror. The terri-ble oaths which the girls take in i the underground temple prey up on their mind3, and effectively seal their lips in 999 cases out of a thousand. I have come across some of the thousand cases, and all I can say is that when the wo-man has disappeared I do not know how or where they are taken, they simply vanish and no more is heard of them." 'This creed of trickery and de-ceit is spreading rapidly. The Mormons want young English girls because their church can only build up its strength by an increased birth rate. Having once passed through the secret temple the girl becomes a com-"- w plete slave, and, having been lent money to travel from England, is never allowed to free herself from the burden of debt In addi-tion she has forced upon her the fiacre." We can hardly credit such a paper as the Sunday Illustrated" publishing such rot, but Mrs. Shepard's silver tongued oratory on Prohibition in this state sever-al years ago brought her many-enemie- s, at one of her meetings at which the Editor attended she . had to admit personally to him she kept liquors of different kinds in her home and sometimes ' partook of them. If the people of England were as well acquain-ted with Mrs. Shepard as many Utahns are they would not take much stock of her untruthful humbugging articles. DIFFERING VIEWS OF RAINBOW Deetaratlsn Made That Ne Twe Per-aen- a Can See the Sama Display In the Same Way. Misconceptions concerning the rain-bow are many, according to Prof. W. J. Humphreys, Ph. D., of Franklin In-stitute, Philadelphia. . Close observa-tions have shown that not even the colors are always the same. Neither Is the band of any color of constant angular width, nor la the total breadth of the several colors uniform. But perhaps the most Interesting feature which Professor Humphreys brings out Is the fact that no two persons see the same rainbow; there are aa many rainbows as there are persona looking at them, It seems. Theory teaches and ordinary experi-ence ahows aa the observer remains stationary or moves, so also, other things being equal, does his rainbow. If then, two observers Initially close together should move in opposite di-rections, each would find his rainbow responding In the same sense as his shadow, and presently the two posi-tions, and, therefore, the Identity of the two bows, would become unquestion-ably different, from which It follows that, as the eyes of the two observers must always be separated by a great-er or less distance, their bows roust also be correspondingly separated and different positions are produced by different raindrops. In short, since the rainbow Is a spe-cial distribution of colors (produced In a particular way) with reference to a definite point the eye of the ob-serverand as no single distribution (other than uniform and Infinite) can be the same for two separate points, It follows that two observers cannot see the same rainbow. Rehoboth Sun-day Herald. Calder Has a Deposit for a Rainy Day 1 ..'W'!:V.-'- William M. Calder of Brooklyn has been nominated by the Republicans for another term In the United States senate. He was elected In 1018 and served five terms in the house. Con-gress, as everyone knows, is largely made up of lawyers. For example, open the congressional directory and you will find that the first 12 members listed are lawyers. Anyway, Senator Calder Is one of the comparatively few business men of the senate. . He is a house builder and one of the largest In the country. Apparently be got Into the busi-ness naturally. He Is the son of a boss carpenter. When thirteen years old, he left school to go to work as an apprentice to his father, for a con-sideration of his board and keep at home and thirty five cents a week. For the six succeeding years Mr. Calder worked by day and went to school at nlcht. This studv he augmented by a three-years- ' course In the Cooper Institute of New York. At the age of twenty he was made foreman of his father's shop, then employing one hundred men. He received $18 a week and Ms bosrd at home. Mr. Calder's ambition was to save $1,000 by the time he cast his first vote. On his twenty-firs- t birthday hi bunk book in the South Saving Imultnte allowed a balance of $1,100.

Statistics can never make people understand the Great Lakes. That it is 300 miles down Lake Michigan from Chicago to Manistlque means little; that 000 feet of water Is not an un-usual depth; that the tonnage which goes through the locks at Sault Ste. Marie makes the annual tonnage of the Suer. canal' seem Insignificant iiie4t things mean little in them-selves. Try another: No equal area of water that rolls floats as much ship-ping In a year as does the Detroit river. That falls flat, too. The beauty of the Great Lakes cannot be compared to that of any other water In the world and carry meaning. liar eld Titus writes In Everybody's. They are things apart, an Influence, a buck-groun- d for Important cultural factors that are beyond statistics. There Is no locality more American In Amer-ica than the Great Lakes. The ro-mance of exploration Is largely for-gotten by America as a whole; the Island communities, once so pictur-esque, are thinning out, railroads have driven the trading hooker off this fresh water; fishing, for the most part, s today as efficient and commonplace as most forms of business; the great fleets of freighters go up and down, up and down, hardly noticed, rarely thought of, except by those directly Interested In shipping. And yet the Great Lakes have their place In our civilization, and In time that place will be recognised and tnlked about and respected and the lakes them-selves will be studied and appreciated and understood.
