The Union, in reply to the Card of the
Delegate from Utah, says, the President never
stipulated that the Army should remain lock-
I'D in the bleak and barren Businesses OF the
mountains, on their way to Great Salt Lake
City, and that no pledges or stipulation to
that effect could have been made by any au-
tborized agent or officer of the government,
nor does it believe that DR.. Kane made any
such agreement with the MOrmons. The
mission of DR.. Kane was purely personal and
ipdiyidual-made at bis own impulse and on
on his own responsibility. He was person

sessed bis esteem. and hence took vito him
letters of introduction to Ulcers OF the army
from Mr. Buchanan as from an indI'iduai.-
But he went neither as agent OF the Presi-
dent nor as officer of the government; neither
as secret agent nor as public officer; but SIM

than the President bad publicly announced,

An important decision has been made o.

The act of May 23i, 1914, for the relief q
the citizens Of towns upon the land of toe
Unitsd States, under certain circumstance,
is construed by the Secretary as applying 70
actual occupants and sqastters, and 70; ("
nonresident speculators. Many Of the sh,ro

sold out at az advance, realizing snug suns.
Some of the present holders never saw to,

The city Of Superior was originally la.!

divided the property into shares, some u.
which were sold in this city. Two YEAR
ago the largest proprietor was Gen. hiraa

site were greatly enhanced by the gran, q.
