During the past twenty years a great many changes have taken place in what we call the agricultural district of the west, including Utah and her neighboring states. Previous to this time very little was known of scientific agriculture, compared with what is known at the present. The barren and waste lands that were then inhabited by wild animals, Indians and weeds, are now inhabited by people, who are making homes and seeking to unfold the great roll of scienti- Black-Haw- k Indian War Veterans. Everything will be in readiness when the Black Hawk Indian War Veterans hold their annual pow- - wow at Nephi on August The bow and arrow, and war hoops will be in evidence on all sides. The celebration this year will eclipse all former celebrations on account of people from all over the state and some portions of Nevada having expressed themselves of being present. The estimated increase in the population of the city during these three days will be 5000 people. Horse racing each day at Kendall's track will be one of the features of the program, purses of $1200. will be given in prizes for the best horses. A Baseball games between the Nephi Tigers and two other crack teams will play each day on the local diamond for the benefit of the baseball fans. A show in which Black Hawk war veterans will make up the cast and will be put on at the Arlington Theatre the night of August 3rd besides a high class stock company will play regular bills the balance of the week at the same house. rao-cassio- ns 5. fic principles, which, when applied will make the west, as we shall see in the future, a blooming and fruitful garden among gardens. City IE Bonds Voted. At the special election held Monday last, the people of Nephi by a decisive majority of votes cast decided to have a new light plant and water works improv-ment- s. The vote was very light when we consider the importance of bonding, there being only 110 votes cast; 90 for and 20 against. The following persons were granted their citizenship papers by Judge Greenwood last week, Eric Erickson, John Sundquist, John Erickson Holmes, Edward Fox Tho3. Irous, all of Eureka. The government was represented by a special examiner A. Bode of Denver. Now that the people of Nephi have expressed their desire for a light plant and water works improvement in a substantial way, it is the duty of the officers spending the bond money to use their best efforts in securing the most efficient and iermanent returns for the money.
