Show TT Z . T. - UTAH STATISTICS. Tho following reports of Suit Lake, Kiino aud Washington cniuUi'; complete com-plete the publication in the Hixai.d in tho departments of agriculture and horticulture, animals and animal ani-mal products, and mechanical and manufacturing industries, of tho in-tormation in-tormation collected under llio auspices aus-pices of the Descret Agricultural and Manufacturing society, by Hon. A P. liockivocd, in compliance witli an act of the legislature of 1S7-1. In a day or two we shall present the aggregate ag-gregate territorial footings, which will show a remark a hi (j yield in these departments de-partments of industry. As this is the lirst attempt at collecting this species of statistical information in this territory, ter-ritory, we have no basis of comparison with that of previous years; but il the legislature shall uccm it proper to mako a small annual appropriation for this purpose, the report of future years will allord an opportunity for making such a comparison. It is to bo hoped that the collection of these and other statistics relating to the various industries of the tenitory may be systematized, and the labor divided among tho various counties, and made the duty of certain officials, eo that tho highest possible accuracy may be attained. The present tables, it is unnecessary to say, claim to be nothing moro than approximate numbers and values, and doubtless in the great amount of labor requisite to collect and compile them some mistakes have been made. Great credit, however, is due to Mr. Rock-wood Rock-wood for his perseverance and industry in-dustry in preparing the work entrusted entrust-ed to him: Salt Lvke County. Ajricullurc and Hoiluitlturc.

The witness testified to seeing in whole or in part teh grams, or what purported to bo telegrams in the hands of Joyce, informing him ol contemplated visits ol revenue ageuts. Witness always straighteutel up his house on such occasions, and it almost al-most always happened that agents came out after information had been received. J. W. Douglass, ex-commissioner of internal reveenue, was next put on the stand, and said during 1873, 1S74 and 1S75, there were efforts constantly made to ferret out the Irauds that were being perpetrated. Several revenue agents were sent to St. Louis in 1S72, but I received no definite information, from them. Later Brooks and Hogc were sent especially es-pecially to look into Bevis ifc Frazer's affairs, and that firm paid government govern-ment $4,000 as a compromise. When I sent Joyce to California it was to get him out ol the way o( the agents whom I sent here, and who complained of an exec ivo attention on his part, wining and driving llirm so ttiey could nut do any work. McDonald Mc-Donald and Joyce never came to see me much when they were in W.-.sh ingtou. I had a conversation witii Rogers in regard to tiio investigations in the west. I remember showing him a copy of a letter received, written writ-ten by Brooks, saying the delay would prove equally profitable to government gov-ernment and gratifying to ourselves, or something of that kind. A copy oi the letter was shown to me at the White house by General Babcock. He saiel a gentleman had shown it to him, aud be was afraid I was being deceived by these men. He said he would hold me responsibta for their conduct. I told him I had great confidence in tho men. He said, what might a sensitive man like Logan say il ho saw that letter? Babcock told me tho letter had been tTivpn him rnnfidnntiiillv nml rn. quested me not to say where I rcceiv ed it from,. Two or three months before Richardson went out ol office I had a talk with the president and told him thim things were crooked in St. Louis, and I thought ii proper investigation was made it would result re-sult largely to the benefit of the treasury. treas-ury. Ho concurred with me and asked when I proposed to begin. On the 2ith of January. 1S75, 1 addressed a letter to the secretary ol the treasury treas-ury in regard to a change of supervisors. super-visors. The rumors of hand beginning begin-ning in 1S72 caused me to write this letter. Afterwards Bristow came into office and wo talked the matter over, and concluded to wait till tho fall elections wen; over. We waited, and then there were a number of senatorial elections. We had to wait until they were over. Then wo were in the midst of a presidential presi-dential election, and that was another an-other obstacle. After that wo arranged ar-ranged to make the transfers. Let-'. Let-'. ters were produced and read in regard to the change of officers of the internal in-ternal revenue, including the re-, nioval ot McDonald to Pmladelphia and Sutton to St. Louis. After I addressed ad-dressed the letter to toe secretary and the transfers of supervisors were made, I had a conversation with the defendant. The conversation was commenced by him calling my attention atten-tion to the subject. IIo tuld mo it was an unwise measure, and would result in bringing such a strong pres-wre pres-wre on tho president that tho order would have to be recalled, which would bo unpleasant f-:r me. The conversation was held at liabcock's room in the White house. Tho president pres-ident was not present. I don't remember re-member to have ha t any other con-versalioa con-versalioa with the dcfcndent about tne matter. Tim transfer was to take placo on Hie 15t.li of February. I notified the parties by telegraph on '.ho 4th that the orders would bo reversed. re-versed. Colonel Dyer then read tho presi-1 dent's revocation of the order. The witness identified the following as having been received by him: "St. Louis, February, 2, 1875. To J. W. Douglass, Washington, D. C. Don 'I liko tho order. It will damage the government and injure the administration. adminis-tration. Will explain when I ace you. (Signed) J. .McDonald." A nuriiberof telegrams were shown to witness for ielenliti cation, but not read, being reserved for introduction at some future lime Colonel Dyer to Uh eel to read a dispatch signed by Central Babcock, but the defense objected and it went over. Several other dispatches either to or signed l.v liabcoL'k wore identified but widi-h'eld. widi-h'eld. Court adjourned till Saturday morning. |
