For the past nine months there has been quite a controversy concerning the county lighting of the. little camp of Lark. It is the only town in the whole of , Salt Lake county ; that has not been equipped with electric street lights. The only reason that lights have not ; been in-stalled, it has been said, was because the Bingham Mines Co. owned the land and an objection would be raised by said com-pany. ' We are indebted, how-ever, to Manager Imer Pett of the Bingham Mines Co. for a copy of a letter which he mailed to the Salt Lake County Com-missioners on December 14th of last year, in which the Commis-sioners were granted full per- - mission to install lights on the above company's land. , y Office bf 'Bingham Mines Co.

To the Honorable Board of County Commissioners : of Salt Lake County, I Salt Lake City, Utah: i Gentlemen: Our attention has recently been called to the need of adequate lighting for! ithe main highway to and within the town of Lark. There is considerable traffic over this road, which is quite narrow, and proper lighting is a .' "safety first" measure which we would heartily recommend and endorse. . You may therefore consider this letter as written permission to install any necessary lights on Bingham Mines Company property. I ' y":.

The history of the elk herd from which the bucks to be served at the forthcoming-barbecu-were slain, dates back to 1910, when the Bingham" council and interested citizens became in-terested in a game preserve. At an expense of $1000 six elk were imported from the Jackson Hole country and placed within an enclosure of about 100 acres in Dry Fork canyon. The fish and game department thereafter es-tablished the district as a game preserve, protecting all. forms of, game and wild life from fire-arms. Since 1910 the small herd has grown until it now numbers about 130 head. Special permis-sion to slay three of tM male elk was asked of D. II. Madsen. fish and game commissioner, and finding-th- at there were a number of superfluous males, he allowed the hunt to be made under the supervision of the deputy fish and game warden of the district. Last Sunday morning Dr. F. E. Straup. mayor of Bingham; P,! Bernard, of the town council, Frank Thompson and Tom Maine of the police force, Dr. Frazier and Tom Stringham staged the hunt, returning with three male elk for the barbecue to be given at the Utah Copper baseball grounds at 4 p. m. next Sunday. . The elk head and ivory teeth are to be disposed of at the barbecue and the proceeds arc to be donated to the state fish and game fund, to be devoted to building up the game preserve.
