A novel way of decorating a room
or a table is to buy cut tulips or other
straight stemmed flowers such as
camellias and at the same time sev
eral turnips of equal size These should
be cut in the shape of bulbs Make a
hole at the top insert the flower and
cover the sham bulb with moss dried

the turnip flat to make it stand firm
and then dot about supper table or
otherwise The effect is very pretty

The Womans Club
The first subject Practical House
Construction in its treatment showed
that a woman may master even the
technique of mechanical subjects
The beginning of the foundation of
a building is an absolutely level
trench filled with waterproof Portland
cement to a depth of six inches
Upon the foundation are reared
nonconducting and perfectly per
pendicular walls for the support of the
roof Brick makes a house cooler In
summer and warmer in winter than
stone However a frame house may
be rendered equal to brick by rtwo
thicknesses of building paper or an
enclosed space of air made fireproof
by asbestos
The roof rests upon the walls In
small distances it is tied in various
ways to equalize the strain made by its
weight Trusses are used for long
distances
The space between the upper and
lower floors Is often filled with plaster
But this is heavy and hollow tiles
make a better if more expensive fill
ing The two floors must not be joined
by nails which conduct sound
That fires may draw well chimneys
should be as nearly square as possible
In this way there will be no extra
surface to cool the smoke
4 Under the topic Effects of a High
Altitude the speaker said that val
leys are characterized by dry atmos
phere because the higher mountain
peaks condense the moisture and take
the showers
The people who reside in high alti
tudes live at a high rate of speed
Their heart beats are from one to fif
teen more a minute than those of the
dwellers at sea level Hence people
with heart disease should avoid high
altitudes When the lungs are af
fected however the result is bene
ficial Consumption is caused by not
using all the lungs The increased
respiration necessitated by the rare
ness of the air calls into use greater
lung surface
I The eliminating organs have more
work in high altitudes as the waste of
the body is increased by the high rate
of living There is also a great ex
haustion of nerve force and as women
generally have greater demands upon
their nervous force high altitudes seem
to wear upon them more than upon
the man It behooves women on this
account to spend their nerve force as
economically as possible lest they
grow old faster than their husbands
At the next meeting Current Top
ics will be discussed also the very
important subject Food

away a more remarkable gain than he
did last year I the reasoning which
explains the Democratic defeat in Utah
last November is fit to Ire worn twice
it should have buried Mr Cannons po
litical son out of sight in 1892 But
i did not Favorable to Democracy in
1892 also was the sincere desire of the
people of Utah for statehood and a
deepseated conviction abiding among
the Mormons that they could secure
statehood through their Democratic
friends alone Yet there was a marked
increase in the Republican vote and
an actual decrease in the Democratic
vote in Salt Lake city The goods
promised by Mormon Republicans after
the election In 1891 were being de
livered through the gracious candidacy
of Mr Cannons political son
Statehood had not yet been secured
but the people were more nearly evenly
divided In 1893 Mr Cannons son did
not lead the Republican hosts The
election was not for delegate In Salt
Lake city therefore the Republican
vote ran behind the results when Mr
Cannons son was in the field The
fabled talisman was a very ordinary
affair as a producer of desired results
when compared with the irresistible
charm surrounding like a halo the in
vincible name of Cannon especially
when that name stood for a public of
fice of much credit and desirable emol
ument
In 1892 when Mr Cannons son ran
the Democratic vote in this county was
3345 the Republican vote 2570 while
the Liberal vote was 4023 making a
total of 9938 against 10960 in 1894 The
Democratic vote increased 1357 and
the Republican vote increased 3694 or
150 per cent against the Democratic
Increase of some 30 par cent
JC
The total territorial vote In 1S91 war
Democratic 14106 and the Republican
and Liberal votes combined 13979 or
a clear Democntic majority over both
In 1892 the Democratic vote was 15201
an increase of 1095 while the Re
publican vote was 12390 itarly
doubled The Democratic vote had in
creased just abut onefourteenth and
the Liberal vote showed a loss of but
500 Yet the Republicans gained nearly
6000 If their gains as claimed came
600 I
from Liberals how comes it that a loss
of 500 to the Liberals could mark a
gain of 6000 to Republicans It must
always be remembered that this phe
nomenal Republican increase occurred
in the year when Mr Cannons son ran
for delegate to Congress on the Repub
lican ticket and in a Democratic year
tcketaDd
lcan In 1893 the Democratid vote In
creased about 1000 while the Republican
can vote increased 2000 The Liberal
vote showed a falling off of over 3600
votes If Republicans are to be cred
ited with all Liberal losses then the
Republicans should have 3600 lost Lib
eral votes but they got only 2000
Where did the missing 1600 go Not to
the Democrat since they only in
creased 1000 and that increase was a
100 missing
natural one The Liberal votes
had left the territory
In 1894 tho Democratic increase was
a little over 3000 and the Republican
30
increase over 7000 If we credit the
I
Democrats 70 per cent of the
wih
Liberal vote the Republicans would
have something like 2700 of the 3300
Liberal votes remaining in 1893 De
ducting this number from the 7000 Re
publican gain in 1894 would leave an
increase publicn In the Mormon Republican
vote over 1893 of 4300 while the Dem
ocrats should have an increase of
above 2000 If we credit to the Dem
I
ocrats 1000 of the Liberal vote
ocrts to the Republicans 4000 of
the Liberal votemaking a total of 5000
Liberal votes and deduct these Gentile
votes from the Democratic and Republican
the Mormon vote
can total votes for 1894 loron
would stand practically as follows Dem
ocrats 18000 and Republicans 18000
Ounnoui Plan Realized
The desire of Mr Cannon was realized
In three years from 1S91 when the divi
sion took place and the Democratic was
8000 In excess of the Republican ote
we find that the end ho then had in view
and fnd which he has ever since then been
molding his people of having the Mor
mons so evenly divided that the weight
of a yellow dog would turn the election
either wayhad been literally accom
plished
In the Third precinct in Salt Lake city
in 1891 the vote stood Democrats 661
Republicans 67 and Liberals 349a Dem
ocratic majority above all of 245 In 1S92
the vote stood Democrats 5 Republicans
cans 269 and Liberate 350a Democratic
loss of 74 votes a Republican gain of 202
and a Liberal gain of 1 If the Republican
can Increase was due to Liberal votes
how can this condition of the votes be
explained But in 1S93 the Democratic
vote jumps to 772a Democratic gain of
185 in place of the loss that occurred in
the Democratic landslide year of 1892
The Republican vote was 258a loss of 1
votes The Liberal vote was 338 a loss
of 12 If the Liberal vote all went Re
publican or part of I how comes it that
there is a loss of 1 to Republicans and
12 to Liberals the same year while there
1 a gain to Democrats of all both oppon
ents lost and of the Increase besides I
can only be explained by the fact that
Mormon Democrats who were borrowed
to help Mr Cannons son in 1892 were
permitted to vote their convictions in
1893 I may be added that in the special
election of 1894 Mr Varian Republican
defeated Mr Hall Democrat and Re
publicans freely confessed that they had
votes for the occasion borrowed 500 Democratic
The vote in the Fourth precinct of Salt
Lake city in 1891 stood Democrats 457
Republicans 63 and Liberals S73a Dem
ocratic majority over all In 1892 when
Mr Cannons son ran the vote was
Democrats 411 a loss of 46 Republicans
248 185 gain Liberals 301 a loss of 72
Republicans not only secured a vote equal
to the loss of both the other parties but
all the increased vote besides Mr Can
nons son was running for delegate and It
was In a Democratic year too In 1893
the vote in this precinct was Democrats
510 a gain of 99 Republicans 233 a gain
of 5 this year when Mr Cannons son
was not In the field against a gain of 243
the year before when he was Liberals
277 a loss of 24 I all the Liberal votes
7
are Republican where did the 19 go to
that are not accounted for by the Repub
lican gain of 5 Every Liberal loss Is a
loss of voters and Republicans not only
gained In a Democratic year all the
natural Increase but took from Demo
crats enough to make up the loss of
Liberal votes The same condition pre
vailed throughout the territory In 1834
in the e two precincts both Democratic
only Mormons were elected to the constitutional
tutional delegation In the Fourth pre
cinct Mr H P Henderson a Gentile but
personally a most popular man running
between two Democratic Mormons for
delegate to the constitutional convention
was defeated by nn Inexperienced but
popular young Republican Mormon
Thus the Fourth precinct elected both the
Mormon Democrats and one Mormon Re
publican and defeated the Gentile Re
publican
The same state of fact prevails in the
Third precinct Three Democratic Mor
mons and two Republican Mormons
Apostle J H Smith and Bfshoo Emery
were elected the Gentiles being defeated
on both sides
The defeat of Tuflge Henderson was In
excusable especially as an eaminatlon
of the ballots showed some C Republican
tickets scratched in his favor As a dele
gate to tVie DoVnocratJo riaHonal conv < n

Rawlins in his own precinct
Some Untrue Statements
The statement that Rawllns carried the
Mormon counties and Cannon the Gentile
counties is a untrue as other explana
tions seeking to avoid the fan conse
quences of what has been done Out of
twentyseven counties in Utah Cannon
carried fifteen and Rawllns twelve All
but two of these counties Juab and
Summit are Mormon and both these
were carried by Cannon and thirteen of
the Mormon counties besides The high
est recorded Liberal vote was under 7UOO
Today the Gentile or Liberal vote in all
the territory would fall short of 5000 I
is unfortunate for those holding the other
side of this controversy that they cannot
I find enough truth on which to base a
single friendly argument
No reference is made to the work of
young Cannon His attempts to show
that he represented the people and that
his election the of prin
electon was ascendancy
ciples embodied in him aro discreditable to
his candor or to his intelligence or they
indicate a baseness on the part of the
Morman people that no one credits
Flashy he luminous as a tallow dip
his eloquence Is that mystical combina
tion of moonbeam and fog the product
of a highsounding voice In convenient
juxtaposition to a vapid mind His elec
tion was the victory of the father This
explains all and the figures verify the
explanation
Mr Cannon is the father of the Idea
that the Mormon people taught for years
that they must be as one man in spiritual
and temporal affairs should be nearly
evenly divided politically He also said
In an interview In the Chicago Inter
Ocean last January that the declaration
of a Mormon ten years ago that he was
not a Democrat would have been con
sidered almost apostasy In the face of
this statement that Mormons were so
thoroughly Ingrained In Democracy wilt
some friend of Mr Cannon be good
enough to explain hoW that gentleman
proposed to bring about an even division
of the neoplo of his faith politically if
not by the use of p religious Influence to
ur Mormon Democrats Into Cannon Re
publicans for what may 1 > e called higher
than political principle
The work has been done The people
are evenly divided Promts of Liberal
Republicans have been fulfilled Yet Mr
Cannon with his idea that his pconle
would be eVEnly divided politically de
clares he has done nnfbnjr to affect their
votes and has wielded no Influence in
behalf of his nIHH1 s n i
Do the people believe Mr Cannon

tained it is easy to prescribe the proper
glasses
But by the methods commonly In
vogue glasses are fitted by the occulist
trying successive test glasses until the
patient selects a combination which he
thinks improves his vision This is
only guess work on the part of both
Glasses given under such conditions
rarely give perfect satisfaction owing
to the eyes becoming easily confused
when being tested
By Dr Shelmardins original meth
ods an accurate measurement of the
Irregularities of the cornea and the
length of the eyeball is taken by scien
tific instruments which record results
that do not vary a fraction of an inch
One instrument proves another thus
making a mistake absolutely impos
sible
He has fitted many hundreds and
given universal satisfaction
Every pair of glasses are especially
ground to suit the peculiarities of each
case and guaranteed
As all examinations are free it will
cost you nothing to find out whether
your vision can be benefited or not
Dr E K Shelmerdine
Dear Sir1 send this note to say that
tIle glasses you fitted for me give very
great satisfaction and you are at lib
erty to use my name in commendation
of your work

R G MNIECE
Pastor of First Presbyterian Church
My vision has been wonderfully im
proved by the glasses that Dr Shel
merdine prescribed Through them the
world looks clearer and more distinct
than formerly while for close work
they are very restful to my eyes
GEORGE REYNOLDS
Secretary of the Presidency Mormon
Church
I never wore glasses before that
have given me such perfect satisfaction
as those fitted by Dr Shelmerdine
THOMAS McINTYRE

I had my eyes tested by five profes
sional opticians previous to securing the
services of Dr Shelmerdine who has
given me by far the best correction
of imperfeot eyesight I have yet ob
tained JOHN NICHOLSON
I hnve been wearing glasses for 25
years and have considered myself well
suited with sevral pairs But I have
never had my eyes so thoroughly test
ed as they have been by Dr E R
Shelmerdine who has fitted me glasses
that have given ease comfort and im
proved vision It affords me pleasure
to make this statement
