Are Asked To RODEO PLAN l DAY-CELEBRAT- ALL SET TO GO OFFICIALS MEET above rate The publishers of the state feel that in this action the Secretary of State has done a very wise thing ,the small papers receiving their just amount of recognition in getting some of the money that is being expended by the state for this purpose. So far as it is known this is the first time that such an action for the legal publication of the state's business has ever been lone. The value of this wide nublic- ity, it is thought, will afford an opportunity for every individual in the state who can read to acquaint himself thoroughly with the nature of the proposed amendments so that he will be able to vote intelligently when the time comes to decide the issue. In a recent meeting of the State Tax League it was stated by Chairman Armstrong, that for twenty years there had been an effort to amend the tax laws in Utah. It was his opinion that the reason of the failures to accomplish this feat was the lack of proper publicity and the lack of understanding of the amendments proposed hy the masses of the people pf the state; coupled with the active and energetic campaign of those opposing uie amenumeiits urougni aoout their eatana as a consequence, the iSker said, there has remained upon sraiuMs oi tne state, according to eopinion oi tne Dest experts on this bject, a penuciousjyrtK'i; x jaws- - "uniinmin ".I14 " peopie tail this timrto VJthorize these amendments by their yote at the coming election it is very likely that they will have to wait another quarter of a century before another opportunity is presented and d the wealth of the state will continue to pay 75 or 80 of the taxes.

BIG PEACH FAIR MEET TO AT SON'S HOME i Elida Hansen Smith, wife of John Smith, prominent educator and rancher of Centerdale, and daughter of the late Andrew Hansen and Mrs. Caroline Hansen, prominent early pioneers of Midvale, died at the home of her son J. Cameron Smith, of this city. Monday, Sept. 1 at 0 A. M. of apoplexy. Mr. and Mrs. Smith were in a pleasant conversation laying plans to visit the deceased's mother ' at Draper on her birthday that takes place this month when suddenly Mrs. Smith ceased talking and was dead in a few seconds. For the past week she had felt unusually well having attended all three sessions of the stake conference a week ago. The deceased was born in Salt Lake City, August 16. 1868. Soon after her birth her parents moved and located on a homestead, comprizing what is row the north half of Sandy City. Due to a uncertain supply of water on the homestead the family moved to the Sand Dones near the Jordon River. She received her education in the Old Mud Temple, an educational institution famous in those days. She was married in the Logan Temple to John W. Smith of Draper, August 24, 1888. From this union four children were born all of whom survive her. She became afflicted with milk leg at the birth of her last child and has suffered from this malady for the past 34 years. .She had lived in Draper, Midvale, Butlerville and Centerdale, te latter place being her residence for the past 15 years. Keeping in pace with her husband, who has been active in religious, political and educational matters all his life, having spent 25 years in the ed ucational field, five of which he was superintendent of the Salt Lake County Schools and at present is Pre sident of the Centerdale branch, of this stake, she has held many important positions, being president of maiiy different women's clubs, a Relief Society officer, Branch Clerk, Registration officer and political convention delegate and in other capacities she has upheld and inspired others to up hold all that is best in social, religious and political life. Her pleasant mannerisms attracted many to her, all of whom became her friends. She was a devoted wife and mother, faithful and true to every convenant and obligation. In her passing the community has lost a benefactress and friend. Besides her husband she is survived by the following sons and daughters: Mrs. Edna S. Carroll, of Centerdale; Miss C. Vivian Smith, of Draper; J. Cameron Smith, of Tremonton and Andrew L. Smith, of Venice, Utah; also her mother, Mrs. Caroline Hansen, of Midvale, and three sisters: Mrs. Emma Smith, of Draper; Mrs. Maud Williams, of Murray and Mrs. Ella Nibley, of Midvale, and nine grand children. Funeral services were held in the Draper ward chapel, Wednesday at. 1 P. M. with Bishop Alma Smith, of Draper, presiding.

They will not only appear in the Leader but eveVy paper' in the county and in every weekly in the state for this period of time. The law requires that they shall be published in at least one paper in each county for nine consecutive weeks. The Utah State Press Association, in conference with the Secretary of State, M. H. Welling1, worked out a plan whereby each weekly would run the amendments for a flat rate of $250.00, this being less than one half of the regular legal rate. This action not only gave the amendments nearly three times the amount of publicity but also saved the state an amount of nearly $1.50 a word.

Presi dent Fishburn called for the reports from the following men and depart ments: John Saunders, horses; C. W. Horsley, Artisan; J. L. Weidman, Agriculture; Ld. Thompson, horticul ture; Noble Hunsaker, dairy cattle; Moroni Lund berg, beet cattle; John Craner and C. E. Anderson, sheep; M L. Neilson, poultry; C. W.

Woodward, concessions; Dr. Odeen Luke, rodeo; Robert Ste wart, county agent; C. J. Dewey, secretary and treasurer and Secretary of State M. H. Welling. The reports from the various departments listed above were indeed encouraging and showed that a lot of work was being done to make the fair a marked success. There was an unusual spirit of cooperation shown for the development of this county institution. Mr. Welling, in his remarks. complimented the workers on things accomplished in the past and urged the people of the county to take an interest in their fair, an institution, which he said had placed Box Elder County prominently in the front in conducting a successful fair. The report of the secretary showed that letters from all parts of the country had been received inquiring concerning the different at tractions to be held and expressing themselves a3 desiring to enter some part of the show. The boys, as reported by the Messrs. Freishknect and Nichols, shown a, very ine attitude of Iach of their departments, as report ed, will furnish many entries in nearly every'line. Dr. Luke reported that all cattle, horses and riders necessary for the fodeo had been secured and that everything pointed to one of the best shows that has been staged. At the conclusion of the meeting President Fishburn expressed his ap preciation for the interest shown and the work being done in not only the deportments reported at the meeting but the women's departmnts, who have already shown unusual interest and activity in behalf of the fair. Corinne Community Puts On Credible Fair A visit to the Corinne Community Fair held Thursday, September 4, would inspire any person with the one- ness of purpose and the community spirit that has existed in putting over so credible an exhibition. ' The livestock and poultry exhibits were of a high order and some splendid specimens were on show. In the Fair Building as one entered was a display of Creom O Weber products that have become famous for their quality and to which industry this community have contributed much. The grains, fruits and vegetables dis play were well arranged and was of the highest type in quality. The art exhibit would remind one of the industry of the women who comprise the community. It would be a worthy exhibition in any. fair. The club, as usual, was prominent to the front with a display of their work and in practical home science demonstrated their progress in this .. Warren Hansen and Denton Rogers, representatives of the Better Wheat of Logan, makers of Company "Laurel Wheat'", were in Tremonton the fore part of the week in the inter est of the products they manufacture.
