The Meeting was a Bitter Disappointment. Disappoint-ment. Sprlngville's War Spirit Mostly Jaw-Bone-W ill Try It Again. Ttic average Springville citizen is patriotic. There can be no doubt of that. Does be not each morning put some nice fresh blood in his eye. and, tioing down to the postoflice to wait Cor the morning papers, discourse of how Spain should be wiped off the face of tbe earth? Docs he not, in forceful language punctuated with quans of anathemas and tobacco-tinctured tobacco-tinctured saliva, denounce, McKinley's imsilaninious policy? Yea, verily; he doth. Of course Springville citi.ens are patriotic. But why reiterate it? Did they not. when the word went forth rrom Gov. Wells tiiat the militia regiments regi-ments should be recruited to their lnjuauium strength, stay carefully away from the mass meeting? And Ild they uot guy the guileless, youthful youth-ful aspirants for military glory and good clothes who had the gall to take the Governor at his word and sign the enlistment rolls?- And do they ::ot. when asked to add the weight of their influence to the movement, make a jaw-bone retreat wiihin a breastwork of voluable protestations of anxiety to stive their country "when the time comes' ? Yea, verily; they do that also, and heartily, withal. Springville patriotism, as thus far stirred, will assay as much as 1 per cent from carefully selected specimens. speci-mens.

Tbe movement, however, will not be allowed to drop, and the matter is being agitated freely this week. A meeting of the men who signed the enlistment roll, and all others who arc interested, will lie held at the City hall Saturday night to take further action. That t he meeting was a bitter disappointment dis-appointment goes without saving. The absence of those men whom Springville'peopie are accustomed to look upon as leaders seemed to indicate indi-cate a lack of interest, and makes it doubly hard to do anything. It is to be hoped that the military authorities of the State will not judge the people of this city too harshly because of these small results. THE MEETING. In response to the call issued last! Saturday a sufficient number of citizens, citi-zens, both ladies and gentlemen, gathered, at the Cit y hall to fill that auditorium quite comfortably. Small boys occupied the galleries. An in-apectlon in-apectlon of the assembly showed that those gentlemen whom the public recognizes a leading men were conspicuously con-spicuously absent. There were present several business men. and the municipal administration was represented by the Uecorder. who came to get posted, anl the Marshal, who came to keep order. There were present also a goodly number of old nien w hose days for duty are gone by, and also a goodly number of young men who fear that the call of duty will sound when t hey have no previous engagement. There was present no Mayor, no Couneil-tuan, Couneil-tuan, no bishop, no counselor, no banker., no railway magnate, no mining king, no leading merchant. The meeting was called to order by Judge J. M. Westood. and on mot ion DooC. Johnson was chosen chairman, and Wm. F. Gibson secretary. After taking the chair, Mr. Johnson explained ex-plained the object of the meeting in alew remarks, and introduced Col. Y. A. Grant, of Salt Lake, and Lieut-Col. Lieut-Col. Denbalter, of Provo, the com manding sottlcers of the 1st Keg. U. N. G. Each gentleman made a brief talk on rualitla matters, and after the answering of a few questions from parties In the audience who were in quest of Information, the enlistment rolls were produced. The chairman men requested, in oruer to get an expression of opinion, those who were desirous of enlisting to stand up. TfIB FDlTOn ENLISTS.

EW PLY mm; mill. Firm of Whitney & Pierre Now Rea'.ly for Business. Lat Tuesday the Independent representivc paid a visit to the new planing mill of Whitney & Pierce, which has lately benun operations. The mill is located near what was once known as Clyde's tlsh pond. The building is uot completed as yet, but the machinery is placed and in running run-ning order. The machinery consists of the following: A swep stake planer, Hall & Drown Jointer, Hall & Brown wood worker, a Hall & Drown turning lathe, an A. I, Root, dovetailing dove-tailing machine, Heacli scroll saw. Beach Saw table. With this assortment assort-ment of machinery they are aide to turn out a good product in nearly all linesof planing and box work. The power to run the machinery is furnished by a t urbine water wheel of eight horse power. The reporter found the force of the mill all busy at work manufacturing bee hives, of which work they make a specialty. The building and machinery now represents capital to the amount of $1000. This is an industry in-dustry which Springville has been in need of for several years, and under the efficient management, of Whitney & Pierce, it will undoubtably be a financial success and will merit the support of the Springville and Maple-ton Maple-ton trade.

Todd, the pastor of the Presbyterian church In this city, und one of the best known churchman in Utah, died very suddenly at his home Tuesday evening, at 7 o'clock of neuralgia of the heart. He and his wife had just driven down in their buggy from Ogden, where they had been attending the meeting of the Presbytery of Utah, arriving home only a few minutes before his death. He was feeling in his usual health until they reached the postofrleo on their way home, .when he got out of the buggy and got the mail. Ashe returned to the carriage- he took sick and vomited a litt le, and on reaching home he endeavored to walk to the house but only got as far as the door when he fell down. Mrs. Todd called for help, and the neighbors coming to her assistance carried him into the house and placed him on the bed. Medical aid was summoned at once, but it wis useless as ho only lived about twenty minutes, passing quietly away without a struggle, apparently. Andrew Calvin Todd was born Jan. 23, 1820, making him over 72 years old. His birth place was a small village in South Carolina, but. his parents moved from Carolina on account of their opposithm to slavery and settled in Southern Illinois, while Mi. Todd was still in his infancy, in-fancy, lie was graduated from the Jefferson College of iiiin,ois.io. tlx? class of 47. -He then entered . the Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian Presby-terian church tit Cincinnati, Ohio. On graduating from this school he took up the work of a preacher, which he has followed for llfly years, twenty years of which be spent preaching in St. Louis and vicinity. At the com mencement of the Civil War, he raised a company of Volunteers composed of the young men of his congregation who elected him cap tain. His company was Company 1' of the 10th Missouri Volunteers. He spent fourteen months in the service of his country, when he was dis-chargud dis-chargud on account of sickness. His company was engaged in the battle of Corinth, lie came west to Colorado wilh acolonvof settlers and founded the town of Evans in that state. He has tilled several pn'pits in the States of Colorado and Utah, his last two calls being tbe pastorates of the Presbvieriaii churches at i'nyson and Springville.

Manager Cutler returned from a successful eastern business trip yes terday, lie reports increased interest being shown in the beet sugar indus try and capitalists are looking in that direction for profitable investments. The sugar factory for Mt. Nebo will be built in time to handle the beet crop of 1899. Business In many lines is improving, though the war scare is effecting some lines. Mr. Cutler is as enthusiastic as ever over the beet sugar industry, and predicts a bright rut ore ror it. There is strong talk of Messrs Knight and Loose of Provo, with other local capitalists, erecting a beet sugar factory between Provo and Springville in the near future. All the beet drills owned by the sugar company are now at work putting put-ting in seed as fast as possible.

I n all there are about eight acres, four on the bench and four in the old field. This is only about one-half one-half the acreage planted last season, as no more mother beets could be obtained. ob-tained. In an editorial this morning the Tribunesays: "Manager T. R. Cutler declares that there Is plenty of money In the East, to be had for use by men of Judgment and experience in beet sugar making; he has just returned from talks with capitalists on the matt?r; and he says further, that he intends to obtain some of this money and increase the number of beet sugar plants In the West very materially mater-ially within the next few years.
