Utah beet Eugar has a rival on the market. It is the California beet sugar, su-gar, which is being placed here by J. W. Heywood, the local representative of the Western Sugar Refining company compa-ny of San Francisco. Mr. Heywood says the Utah sugar had had the best of the market here for some time, but that now his company proposes to enter en-ter the field with a price of $3.90 per 300 on granulated beet sugar from California Cali-fornia and a price of $4 on cane granulated gran-ulated sugar. He expects a shipment t of the sugar here within the next few 1 days. The minimum sarload has now been reduced from 30,000 pounds to 24,-000 24,-000 pounds, as it was formerly. Engineer H. M. McCartney of the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake railroad, has received some blue prints to pass upon of a bridge that is to be thrown across the Santa Ana river in Los Angeles county, .California. The blue prints are the outcome of a conference con-ference held with Senator Clark. They have been prepared by Chief Engineer H. H. Hawgood and all indications are ; that they will be adopted. The scheme is to build a huge bridge of solid concrete, con-crete, which when completed will be the largest bridge of its kind in the world. By taking local points in demonstration dem-onstration the bridge would extend from the MeCornick block at the corner of First South, to the entrance of the Kenyon hotel, a block below on East Temple street.

Ogden beets are hardly coming to the expectations, and the yield there may not exceed last year's run, but the capacity of the Logan factory has been Increased and a big advance is certain at that place.
