It was contended thnt if the structure were placed about mid-way between Richmond and Sniithfleld. it would fill the requirements of both places. Further, it was thought th" proposed location west of Sniithfie' was in a dangerous spot, and the ro:i would be washed out by the river. Fr.i these and other reasons the matter wa reconsidered by the court at it last reg-ular meeting and, it coming to a vote, a majority of the members decided in favoif of the higher location. The members of the court held an in-formal meeting on Monday last, and delegations were present from Smith-fiel- Hyde Park, Newton, Clarion and Trenton all favoring the site first firoposed. The entire question was ca.' and finally the me nuei of the conniy court decided as it wit the Unanimous desire of those eonrei-net- ' to place the bridge west of Smith '" ' and the delegations were assure.I that such decision would be made at the in xt regular meeting of the county court. Thus, work on the bridge is going rapidly forward, at the present time. Anent County Koads. ' Login Journal. , . . . y . A decision has been reached in the matter of the proposed new bridge over Bear River which it is thought will be satisfactory to all parties concerned. It will be remembered that some time early the past summer, the people ol Sniithfleld Newton and other places petitioned the county court to build 4 bridge over Bear River, west of Smith-fiel- The petition was considered by the court and finally granted. Material for the bridge was placed on the ground and the work of construction begup. In the meantime however, .a nutnber.f V .1 ! CAPITAL, $250,000.

It is an undeniable fact that the gov-ernment of all large cities is in the hands of small fry politicians. Adepts at pri-mary fixing and ward rounders who are too useful to the rising statesman to bo Ignored, and yet too insignificant to as-pire to a higher office, are usually re-warded with seats in the municipal council, where their peculiar talents find ample fipportnnity for display. Aldermen all through the country are notoriously in disrepute. Willing to sacrifice themselves on the altar of patriotism for a nominal salary,, they often manage to turn their official posi-tions to financial account, and the cor-ruption in municipal governments is in consequence the greatest stain on our free Institutions. Next to the greed for boodle, the dearest thing to the alder-mani-c heart is the distribution of pat-ronage among friends. In the nature of things those friends comprise the heelers and strikers and workers In ward conventions or the worst elements in the political field. From Boston to San Francisco the history of oity coun-cils is the same, and notwithstanding the sporadio efforts at reform, the evil seems to be incurable, The meanest amateur in politics can see that Salt Lake City is exempt from the general rule. Owing to the peculiar political conditions obtaining here and the gigantic struggle it necessitated to wrench the city government from the dominant church,' the candidates of both parties were really of superior timber. Comparatively, the last munic-ipal election was more hotly contested than a presidential election and the victorious nominees came unscathed out of the contest. We say it without fear "of contradiction, there is no city council in the United States that at all equals ours In point of character, or intelligence For any paper to speak of it as "a gang of sixteen reckless and Irresponsible men who have been placed in temporary control of the city," is a libel upon the truth. It Is a malicious and dastardly false-hood uttered by an incorrigible liar for the mere sake of lying.' It is an insult to decency. There is surely no man in that, "gang" who could not compare his responsibility with that of his r. It takes a high order of cheek to speak ' of Karrick and Spafford and Heath and Parsons and Pen-dleton et al, as members of a reckless and irresponsible gang. The author of that infamous sentence would not dare attach his signature to it. CYRUS W. FIELD'S SUNFLOWERS. They Are, Not Only Tilings of Beauty, ut of Utility as Well. Tears of ecstasy would have filled tht eyes of the now obsolete, but always sssthetw, Oscar Wilde could he havs stood and viewed the field of sunflowers cultivated by Cyrus W. Field on his country estate, Ardsley near Tarry-tow- n, on the Hudson. The sunflowe-cove- red an entire acre, and with heads heavy and drooping from the recent rain they were just lifting their faces to the morning sun, their bright yellow petals in pleasing contrast with their dark cen-ter of green and brown. Jt was an array of giant. The tough green stalks woujd have averaged over six feet in height, and some of them towered up to seven feet '" ' But these flowers art not cultivated alone to gratify Mr, Field's sssthetio taste. The man who connected America and Europe with an electric cable is nothing if not practical.' He believes in uniting beauty and utility. So, when he drives out by the sunflower grove, and his love for the beautiful is touched by that sea of bobbing yellow heads, the practical part of his nature finds solid comfort in the thought that these flow-ers are put to good use. Others may de-light in the tende orchid or the gay chrysanthemum, with their endless va-riety of shades, but these are only fair to look upon. Not so with the hardy yel-low bloomer, which Mr. Field loves so well. - i When the frosts of autumn shrivel np the petals of the flowers and the center turns a deep, rich brown, then the tops of the flowers are carefully cat and hung up to dry. In about a month the little black flat seeds which" fill the head of the flower nre thrashed out and fed to the chickens in Mr. Field's extensive henneries. Bo, on the days when a fine specimen from the coops lies on his back, nicely browned, in the platter, with his drumsticks lifted heavenward, Mr. Field naturally reflects in the strain of the familiar nursery rhyme, "This is th cock that ate the seed that grew on the top of my sunflower weed." ' And how gratifying - must be the thought that the beanty of the summer has been transformed into the toothsome breast and tender wing. 5, This reflection might escape the aforesaid Osoar, but it is no doubt a source pf jnuch pleasure to the millionaire who cultivates and ad-mires the same flower; v "Do yon sow new seeds for these sun-flowers every spring?, was asked of Fred Allison, who has charge of the field. "Yes," ho said, "we 'plant new seed every year, and put thein in hills at we sow corn. About the middle of Septem-ber we cut off the tops, hang them up to dry, and in another month they are ready to shell. We mix the seeds with the other chicken feed." "How many chickens do 'you keep?" he was asked. "About two thousand," he said, "as that number takes up all the space in our three houses. From these chickens we gather over three thousand dozen eggs each year. All eggs that the fami-lies do not use we sell.- - There are three families to supply Mr. Field, his son, Edward M. Field, and his D. A. Llndleyand they tise from fifty to sixty dozen eggs a week," , ... "Do you keep ducks?" "Yes, we have about six hundred ducks and about sixty geese. We sell what ducks wo don't want for horns use, but the chickens we keep; as the fami-lies use a great many. The three fami-lies use from fifteen to eighteen chick-ens, four or five ducks and about two goese a week." New York Times. An Acre of Tabfrs In Idaho. Wood River Times. Frank Drake, tho well-know- n rancher who lives on the outskirts of Hailey, at the mouth of Qulgley gulch, has en-riched the world with a seeding potato which is the very most prolific known. It is likewise the best cooking potato he ever saw, perfectly solid, white, med-ium early' and many of them tip the scales at four pounds, faction that he had hold of something new and valuable. In 1889 he raised enough for seed and to eat, and this year he determined to test it for yield. tie therefore prepared an acre by extra cultivation and manuring, and the re-sult is really astounding. From 2R59 pounds of seed be got 47.918 pounds, net weight, of potatoes, all of which are of large size but 2800 pounds, which are small. The cost of the crop was as follows: Labor and seed at two cents per pound cost $182.60; one ton of ertalizer, $87.60; total, $370.20. WANTS.

Killed a Mountain Lion. Mantl Sentinel. . On Saturday about S o'clock Peter Doingaard was hunting deer about ten miles up Manli canyon. It was snow-in- g and Mr. Domgaard went into n patch of brush, whore he was surprised to see a mountain lion ready to spring on him, His ramrod was in the gun so that the snow would not get into the barrel. Hastily pnlling it out be raised the gun to his shoulder and fired just as the animal was rising. The bullet struck in the left eye. killing her dead. T,be skin ot the animal measures six feet nine i .ches from tip of nose to tip of tail, and the animal would weigh a hundred pounds. A few steps from the mother was a cub which Mr. Domgaard brought with him to town where it can now be seen. If any one wishes to see 'ibd ruriosities tbey 'should call at the residence of Mr. Domgaard. The Liberals of Salt Lake are aroused and that augurs well for a rouping ma-jority. When the Hon. John T. Caine speaks at West Jordan tomorrow we hope be will take for bis text these words from Chronicles: "What have I done in the past?" ' DO YOlJB DliTlf ANVWAT, The People's party relies, upon its natural majority in the territory for the of Delegate Caine. That majority two years- - ago was 8,048, out or a total voteof 18,8U.;Under ordinary ciroumstances these figures would be discouraging to the Liberal candidate; but the present circumstances are not ordinary. .Two years ago the, move-ment for the emancipation of Utah had just barely begun. Salt Lake city and Ogden were both in the hands of tho Mormon church, and while tho more hopeful Liberals professed to see ahead the signs of a change, but few of them expected it to come so soon or so thor-ough. In view of the revolution ' that has since taken place it is not toe san-guine to hope that at least one-fourt- h of the adverse majority of 1888 can be overcome in the two big cities alone. Outside of Salt Lake and Ogden the in-flux of newcomers is not so great, but yet sufficient, especially in the active mining districts, to modify the figures materially. But aside from the natural accessions to the Liberal ranks we have every reason to count upon' a considerable Mormon vote for C. C. Goodwin. The young and progressive element of that denomination has learned something from ' the growing contact with the Gentiles. Educated to regard them as brutal and hostile invaders and quaran-tined against them by a domineering priesthood, the Mormon people kept out of touch and fellowship with them while their num-bers were small. But since their ranks increased to the present proportions they could not well be avoided and the two elements moet to day on common ground in the pu.suit of a common interest. There is no an-tipathy between the progressive Mor-mon and progressive Gentile and the tendency of the times is towards the disintegration of existing party lines. Meantime the issue is between Caine and Goodwin, not as to what either be-lieves but as to what either is capable of accomplishing for the good of the people. The choice on this line cannot be difBoult. Caine's record brands him as a worthless representative while Goodwin's record marks bim as the champion of our best material interests. It is for this reason that we expect Young Utah to let the dead past bury the past and join the living procession that moves toward a bright future. Anyway, undeterred by any majority past or present, every true friend of Utah should do his duty on the Fourth of November and then let the result be what it may. Let no voter be remiss. Cleveland was re-ported dead yesterday, .but he denied the report and his denial ought to be authentic. That does not, however, apply to his political condition. It is said that William Waldorf Astor is traveling abroad incognito under the name of W. H. Class. Thus one by one the blue bloods of America assume the prerogatives of foreign aristocracy. In a contest between the Western Union Telegraph company and the Tel-egraphers brotherhood, which is expeot-- t ed, the former would have the sinews of war and latter the publio sympathy on its side. A remarkable surgloal operation is reported from New York, where the roof of a woman's mouth attacked with cancer was removed. The operation will be more remarkable, however, if the cancer will stay removed. There's the rub. In exchange for the army of progress-ive Mormons that will vote for C. C. Goodwin on the fourth of November, the church has caught one recruit whose other name is Charles Ellis. Thechurch is making the most of him while it can, and vice versa. A Cabman's Opinion of tVonien. Said an old cabman: "I have been standing in Forty-secon- d street here since 1807, and never have-- had an ex-- tra ten cent piece from a woman. They are all alike and their name is close. I never drive one that she doesn't want to go like an engineer, and if I demand ex-tra pay for the time made over the road she will hold back and. fight with her month every time. They all want their money's worth. If they agree to travel at mile rates and doubt my estimate of the distances I have to wait while they go into a drug store or telegraph office for points, and then I lose more time than the difference amounts to. If they hire me by the hour they will hold the cab till the full hour is np. I never-kne-one of them to cheat In the time, and never met one who paid for a frac-tion over. A man will allow me half an ' hour or half a dollar occasionally to get back to the stand, but a woman never pays for anything she doesn't get. Un-less she is with a man I don't care much about carrying lier." New York World. We ars glad to have President Palm-er's word for it that there is no reason for any anxiety on the score of money in connection with the World's Fair, Judging from the salaries the officers voted themselves the exchequer must be overflowing. Canton, Ohio, is just now the Mecca of American statesmen. After McKin-ley- , Reed and Hill comes Blaine to make a stump-speec- h there. Whether Warwick or McKinley is elected the citizens of the sixteenth Ohio district are to be congratulated upon the amount of political information they receive. A silveb baton embellished with im-perial eagles and set with diamonds is a handsome present of Emperor William to Ganeral Moltke, but the latter' gift to the kaiser, consisting of Schleswig, Uolstein, Lauenburg, Hanover, Hesse, Alsace, Lorraine, and the imperial crown, surpasses it and yet it was made with less ostentation. Rich Men's Cigars. It is a mistake to presume that the rich men smoke the higher grades of cigars, according to a well known deal-er. The Vanderbilts and the Goulds use choice clear Havanas and pay high prices for them, but they are exceptions among the wealthy class. The gamblers are the connoisseurs in the matter of smok-ing. They buy only the best and highest priced cigars. Rich men's sons who are clerks at email salaries come next in their choice of cigars, and the politicians are third in tbe list. Business men in the commercial and mercantile lines rank fourth, and the same authority says that retired merchants and millionaires buy tho cheapest cigars they can get. New York Telegram. Apropos of Thb 'Jimes' comment on "Hotel Horrors" we find this in the Boston Herald: s The Byracuse hotel, the burning of which was attended with such a ten lble loss of life was well built and thoroughly equipped with Are escapes and all needed appliances. The usual moral that is drawn from such experi-ences with the flames Is, therefore, uot appro-priate In thtB case, though the remark that catastrophes will happen In the best regulated hotels, would seem to apply. In cultured Boston it may do to ad-vise schoolmasters to give their pupils a half hour's exercise once or twice a week in reading the daily newspapers, and even in Salt Lake City it may an-swer if the schoolmasters were discreet enough to choose The Times, but we shudder to think what the effects upon the morals of the impressible youth would be should they be compelled to listen to the billingsgate of our contem-poraries. The Pennsylvania's President. Down at Cape May I met President Roberts, of the Pennsylvania railroad. Here was a man who had started out twenty or thirty years ago as a track hand, and who had come np through the mechanical and the executive branches of the business to be the president of the greatest railway In the .world. His salaries for he has several as president of the three or four corporations which are in the Pennsylvania system aggre-gate $100,000 a year, Mr. Roberts shows the effect of bis eai'y v training in the strong love which he bee for the details of railroading. Cor. Marrisburg Tele When Stanley Africanns reads the diary of Major Bartelotte he will wish he were back in tho jungles of the dark continent where people do not malign each other in books. There can be no doubt, however, that the effect of Major Bartelotte's disclosures will be to dam-pen the Stanley worship in England. The dead ofliccr was an ideal soldier and his fate elicited genuine sorrow all through the island. Even Stanley eu-logized his courage and fidelity though he could not refrain from accusing him, however mildly, of a spirit of insubor-dination. Stanley has had his share of caluminators but they could detract nothing from his glory. Major Bartel-otte is not one of them.. He could have no motive of jealousy to disparage his chief even if his high sense of honor did not preclude the attempt of it. The best that can be said about the matter is that Stanley was not and did. not pre-tend to be a missionary but an explorer and that his wonderful success covers a multitude of disagreeable incidents. Many a mine that had been deserted on account of the depreciation of silver Is now resounding with the echo of the pick and drill, and the sturdy miner who delves in the bowels of the earth for its hidden treasures knows the part JtJdge Goodwin took . and ; takes in bringing about this change, while Dele-gate Caine, with all the advantages of a representative in congress failed abso-lutely in doing his duty , in this as in every other respect. The miners of Utah ought to respond as one man to the muster on election day. ' The church party and the saloons mourn- - the absence at this critical time of E. T.
