in three weeks another excellent chance for those who wish to improve the grade of their stock life in salt lake it has been often said that the waters of the great salt lake contain no living thing

in the third district court the answer having been published in as we believe a characteristically act dishonest In terpola i ted and li bellous form we considered it advisable to publish the document correctly so that our readers and the public at large largo might have the opportunity to read it as it Is po and free from malicious misrepresentation our readers will readily perceive that the answer being constructed in technical style for legal purposes only is necessarily of an essentially alft different erent character to that of an informal statement A test case louis ardner was beloro alderman today to day on a charge of selling liquor after the hours prescribed by ordinance the case being perfectly clear the de fondant was fined in uhe ube sum of 50 notice of an appeal was given and bonds ero aro ero are at once filed it is perfectly understood that this case caso is D adest test te st ono one in hi which the other saloon keepers are interested it being designed to carry the matter into the higher courts for the pur purpose pose poso of testing the validity of the liquor ordinance on the point of unreasonableness the hour of closing being deemed by the interested parties to be too early there is no telling how the courts now in existence in the territory will rule on the matter but the expressed wish of the people in the premises cannot be doubted not long iong sinco

slightly bruised in his back while ae the people were crowding into the cars for the return trip while waiting for the down train by the track a heavy shower came down rendering matters rather uncomfortable for a while we may state that all proprietors of pleasure grounds should not only see that there theto is plenty of apparatus tor recreating purposes but that everything of the nature of a swing is made of the soundest kind of material for if it be otherwise serious accident accidents 3 will be inevitable mesdames east and davis the managing committee exerted themselves commendably to render the members of the party comfortable for table A big saving we are informed by dr barratt that himself and mr J W snell are proprietors of an iron mine in gintic tintic district which they have been operating tin for something over two months and which yields a splendid quality of brown hematite iron just the kind of article for flexing fluxing with he says that this iron is being supplied to a large number or of th the smelters shelters sm elters who are using it forthal for that purpose in fact the demand for it has creased increased iu so much lately thattie that the freight from the mine to provo amounts now to an average of about a dagand the same to lehi making a day gestates he states stater that the ore contains also to the ton in silver and it is 18 supplied to the smelters shelters sm elters at 12 a ton making tile tila real cost to the ser but a ton heretofore large amounts of flexing fluxing ore have been shipped to this territory from wyoming that cost the smelting

retain nearly a million dollars in the territory yearly that thab would otherwise be sent abroad from tho south today to day we met with elder richard bentley who arrived from st george last friday ile he brought with him three tons of copper ore from the grand gulch mine mine situated about fifty miles southeast south east of st SL george his purpose in bringing it was to have havo it thoroughly tested with a view to finding a market for it this mine is considered by men of experience per peni penh ienco lenco enco ence in mining matters to be one of the best beat in utah it is at present developed only to a limited extent and aud there appears to be no end ond to the deposit the ore so BO far as reached averages from 45 to 60 50 per cent copper and about sixteen n ounces ounce of aliverto sil all silver bliver verto vento to tho the conand ton and it gives indications of running more to silver the deeper it goes some offers have been made by outside capitalists to purchase the mine but the company prefer retaining it as th they thoy believe they have got a av splendid thing it is the intention of the company as soon as it shall become practicable ti to endeavor to have smelt ing inz works erected in the vicinity so that the ore may be reduced there and thus save freighting and other expenses which at present operate against the tile movements of the company the fruit crop in the south never was better no destructive worms in that part of the territory fruit stealing there is a large amount of fruit stealing going on just now and some of it is cf ruf a most barefaced and unconscionable character parties have been observed indulging in this dishonest practice in orchards in the southwest portion of the ward their names are noted and witnesses are ready and although the robbed parties do not wish to prosecute if they can avo avoid avold d do doing ing 1 so if the stealing goes oil on here hero will be no alternative left the stealing alluded to is not generally done by small children let a hint be sufficient nici fici fi ent some people seem to be imbued with tho the fallacious idea that robbing orchards is not stealing just as if there was any discrimination with regard to the tha kind of property taken to render an offense that of stealing or the person purloining a thief it is just as much at a theft heft for a person to steal others an grapes as it is to rob him of his clothing or money and the person is as as much entitled to pu punishment nish ment who enters another persons person house and takes property as he who enters his orchard and steals from that the orchard as well as the house is a part of the premises of the owner the only apparent difference between the act of a person who steals from an orchard and that of another person who wh 0 surreptitiously enters a fruit or other store on east temple street for instance and steals th a gefrom is that the one kind of stealing is perhaps a little more dangerous than the other because of the tite reater greater liability to discovery FROM THURSDAYS DAILY dally AUG 27 potato crop in the vicinity of bounri ul the potato crop is somewhat light inmost in most other
