directors of the utah sugar factory held a meeting today and declared a dividend of 5 per cent and con considered the question of the price to be paid for sugar beets for the ensuing year it was decided to fix the price at per ton delivered at the factory as against 4 the price which prevailed last year this increase is based upon the fact that the tariff act recently passed advanced the price of sugar on the general market 1 per hundred pounds the beet crop unfortunately is very small as compared with that of I 1 last ast year being only about half of that harvested in 1896 sarah IEL

opinion to governor well relative to the sanity of wm lewis who killed a barber aj 4 sanor sandy several years ago and who as Js confined in the state insane asylum at provo the opinion to is as couo lohowa we are receipt of your cation of the dinst in reference to one who is confined in the state insane asylum at provo from the facts shown in your communication and in closures it appears that the person Is under an indictment tor for the crime of murder however before being placed upon trial under the indictment there was an inquiry as to his sanity at that time as provided in sections et seq of the code of civil procedure which resulted in a finding at that time that he was insane and he was therefore committed to the asylum section provides for the trial of at such person when he becomes sane th there e is however in this act no definite formby form f procedure for removing him from the custody of the officers of 0 the asylum into the custody of 0 the sheriff of the county where the crime was committed 1 I find however that the legislature of 1896 in chapter section 31 being an act in reference to the state insane asylum provides for the discharge charge of a person from the asylum when they have become sane 1 I would advise you that under the said section some person should file an affidavit with the board of insane asylum commissioners setting up that persons sanity and that the person is unjustly deprived of his liberty the board should thereupon request the judge of utah county to inquire into the sanity of the person and if upon examination the person should be adjudged not insane then an order should be made discharging him from the custody of the superintendent of the asylum but remanding him to the custody of the sheriff of salt lake county to be placed upon his trial for the crime charged in the indictment it would also be advisable to make a showing in the jhb affidavit and also at the time of the hearing before the judge that the person is under an indictment tor for the crime of murder in salt lake county FROM faix saturdays DAYs DAILY OCTOBER 30 ogden standard at 10 last night mrs ambrose meyers was returning home after a short walk when
