This means, if curried out, but a few more days of suspense, for this is what it lu, not only to Kcnutor Smoot, but to his colleagues and the whole country. The merits of the case Irivc been from sufficiently discussed every practicable ofiit of view; now let us huve the verdict. The funeral of Mrs. Mary Wrigley was held in American Fork Thursday last. Mrs. Wrigley was born Sept. 24, 1818, at Doncaster, England. She was the mother of nine children, six of whom live, forty-thre- e grandchildren and sixty-twThe big volume of muddy water that hus been ranting down for the pust two ilays succeeded In putting the local power company out of business for a time last evening and again today. The exceedingly large amount of rubbish that has been brought down by the high water broke through the screens at the mouth of the flume, and lodged In the pipe In such a manner that It also broke. A very exciting runaway occurred In American Fork the other day. A small boy spied a single rig tied to a hitching post on Main street, which was one of the old family style, and got started. With whip In hand, he urged the animal Into a run down Main street, and. despite the many efforts to stop the horse. It passed on and cante to a stop, only after It had crashed into a telephone pole and thrown the little fellow out. The boy, who was about 6 years of age, fell Into a mud puddle, which no doubt accounts for the fact that he was unhurt. The buggy was badly ntashed up, but no other damage was done. The recent heavy rains that have visited the American Fork canyon have played havoc with the roads, washing them out In many places In a manner, thut will take considerable work to replace them. The ore tennis of the Wyoming mine had Intended to commence the hauling of ore the first of this week, but owing to the rainy weather they did not get started, and now thnt the roads have suffered, it will be some time before they get started with the shipping of the ore. Superintendent Raddatz of the lion-erln- e said the recent rich ore body that the company had opened up in driving the drain tunnel had proved up for a length of forty feet, and that it was eleven feet in width. Inasmuch as the management Is driving straight ahead, and the ore body struck toward the north, it was left for the time being. THE FUTURE TOLD BY MAIL. t-- E EDITORIALS WORKING UP POLITICALLY. The local Nilltlcul aliuatlon ginning to ahow aome signs of activity, not only In the nutter of dlscitH-alohut aa to probable alignment of the different forces and candidates. The state at large will elect two officers, both of prominence ami Ini jKirtuuce representative to congress and supreme court judKe. It Is at ready foreshadowed that there will be at least four candidates for each of these places Republican, Democratic, The workAmerican, and Socialist. ingmen are talking up separate organisation, and if they do there may be la be- a race for the offices at large. The post of congressman being the only strictly political one of the two, and a nice, profitable job to hold with al, naturally commands the most attention. On the Republican side there a the most speculation, this being caused chiefly by the local situation aa to Salt Lake county, where three-fourth-s - of those who formerly trained with us have gone over to the Americans and show anything but activity, pernicious or otherwise, about coming back. Furthermore, It la gravely announced with apparent authority that the war la to be carried no far into Africa that not leas than a dozen other counties will have American representation in the contest. Thla naturally complicates matters considerably, and to those who have the welfare of the party at heart, is a matter of real concern. To the other class, which persists In holding' the reins, and so conducting affairs generally that those who are out Intend to stay out and are gratified with the dally spectacle of seeing yet others Join them, It seems to lie a matter of no great moment; they appear to have settled down to Congressman Howell for and while he has no enemies at all, this is the worst thing that could have happened if continuing in bis present place Is the thing desired. Several others have been named, but of these only one has achieved such prominence as to make him a serious consideration at the present Salt time Parley P. Christensen, Lake countys prosecuting attorney. He has but recently returned from a visit to natlonnl headquarters with all sorts of rumors and statements as to his political intentions preceding him. It was industriously circulated about the time of his departure from Washington that he would not be a candidate against Howell, thus giving the latter a clear Held. This, however, seems to have been a weak invention of the enemy," a thought born of hope, no doubt, but baseless Just the same; for no sooner was his foot upon his native heath than Parley repudiated any such performance and announced himself as strictly In the race with a firm reliance upon the friendliness of his friends. The logical result of this arrangement would seem to be to place him in opposition to the "tattered remnant" here, and in proper accdhi with real Republicans, as exemplified by the overwhelming majors ity of the party, which has too long and too quietly submitted to Inefficient candidates being and unpopular thriiat upon it, and proposes at last to take a hand in the game. There are enough Republicans, with their Democratic allies. In Utah to win the raining election, and several others to follow, in the absence of new issues. That there and unlooked-fo- r is a considerable defection in both those elements, however. Is certain, and this without counting the great multitude that have gone over to the Most of the Democrats, Americans. if they see nothing better ahend than what, now and for some time past has been In existence, will take the back track for home; another important nomination overswayed by the remnant's amateurs will do the Job to a turn the Republican party, already framed up for a walloping in this county, will meet its Waterloo lu the state as well. Christensen, without the embargo of the ring's nomination, might be quite an acceptable candidate and he Is justified in pulling for it in the open field and upon his merits. Similar things might be said of Mr. Howell and any one of a dozen others if they show up without entangling alliances. FIAT JUSTITIA. At this writing the thrower or the bomb which wrought such awful havoc in Madrid during the royal marriage ceremonies has not certainly been detected. It will 1m u most sorrow rul, deplorable thing if he should not be. An example, several examples it may be, are needed, and if he and all his accomplices could but be brought to the garroting chair it would be a glad, greai thing for the cause of law and order. o The protective tariff has been called the mother of trusts, but trusts are known In England as well as here. The tariff gives the big companies higher prices than they could get without It, Just as it does the smaller companies and Individuals. The combination of small companies Into a less number of larger ones has bran going on in England the same as it has here. Rig companies can do the business to better advantage than smaller ones If they are properly managed, ami it make any difference whether the tariff Is high or low. Gardiner (Me. Journal. diH-sn- t Block. Room 7, Salt Lake City. The tariff Is an intricate problem, and it Is not safe to generalize too much regarding It. This explains the difficulties or n general revision and the reluctance of Home of tlm Congressional party leaders to begin the work of tariff tinkering. Grand Rapids Press. REFUND CLAIMS ON TRIES.

He brought from the West Indies a corps of natives as slaves or servants whose chief duty It waa to keep the Inquisitive off hls possessions. When he came Into possession of the Hudson river property, about a hundred and fifty of the 400 acres rounding the mansion had been cleared. The rest was a danse forest of huge oak and hickory, which waa carefully preserved by the Livingston family, and thera remains some 200 acres of virgin forest De Veaux married Miss Catherine Ver Plank, whose father waa one of the wealthiest Dutch settlers along the Hudson, and In the latter years of hls life mingled In the society ol the place to a considerable degree, and his mansion came to be a headquarters of royal hospitality.
