The Scrip Tax Case.

The submission of testimony in
the case of z. C. NJ. 1. against o. j.
Hollister, collector of internal rev.
enue, began yesterday. All the
facts the plaintiff desired to estab-
lish were admitted by the defense
i'll the answer and in open court, so
that when the case was called the
defense began the introduction
of its testimony, the plaintiff, by
the admissions referred to, being re-
lieYed of the duty of making a case
in chief. Excepting in one or two
matters, this left the case entirely a
matter of law. The defense offered
to introduce in testimony the return
of z. G. NJ. 1. to the collector, show
ing the amount of orders issued and
their character. J. l.. RaWlins, ESQ.,,
counsel for the plaintiff, objected to
the introduction of any evidence as
to the amount of orders issued, or
as to their circulation, as being i'm
material, for the reason that the
question whether they were tax
able or not under the statute in
question must be determined from
the face of tie orders. The objec-
ton was thoroughly argued and
submitted last night, and pending
decision, the court adjourned. Should
the judge hold the objection well
taken, all further discussion will be
on law points, and render the taking
of testimony unnecessary.

UTAHCERITE CLAYTON1,
Or Mineral Wax of Utah.

A few years ago Professor Clay
ton, mining engineer of this city
directed public attention to one Of
our natural products-a mineral
wax or native paraffine, found in oul
canyons. AT the time it was named
Utahcerite," and as Mr.. Clayton
was the first one to notice this in
teresting and useful substance, il
was named Utahcerite Claytoni, in
honor of the discOverer. We learn
that it is now intended to
develop the claim where the wax is
located, with a view to its intro
duction into the market. This sub
stance is of the nature of ozocerite,
a native paraffine found in Moldavia,
the only real difference being the
absence of Odor, the Utahcerite hay
ing no smell; it behaves precisely
similar to the Ozocerite, 50 far as re-
lateS to solvents and fractional dis
tillation. A very perfect specimen
of white paraffine has been shown in
this city, which was made from
this wax. Mr.. Joseph Jennings, of
this city, it is believed. was the first
to succeed in obtaining pure paratfine
from this substance.

The Cannen-CampbelI Case.

On Thursday night additional ties.
timony was taken in the contested
election case of Cannon against
Campbell, the testimony, of course,
being on behalf of the defense. But
one witness testified, being Mr.. w.
FaTrer, of Provo. He testified to
Hon. Geo. @. Cannon going to the
Sandwich Islands as a missionary in
1850, leaving San Francisco for the
Islands about November of the year
stated. Farrer was also mission
airy to the same place. The witness
testified that Mr.. Cannon remained
there about four years, leaving, on
his return for this territory, in 1854.
On cross. examination by Arthur
Brown, Esq, Mr.. Farrer testified
when Mr.. Cannon referred to Utah,
it was always as his home; and that
he always talked and acted and init
mated that Utah was his home; that
he intended it should be his home,
and never spoke of the Sandwich
Islands in the light of a hOme-he
being simply missionary sent
their to preach and remain until re-
leased.

Arm Broken,

A 1o-year-old boy, a son Of Mr..
Williamson, a Park City druggist
hroke his arm on Friday, in a
frightful manner. He was up a
locust tree plucking blossoms, when
he missed his hold and fell to the
ground, a distance Of twenty feet
He lit on his left arm breaking it at
the wrist, dislOcating it at the
elbow, breaking both cOndyles, and
causing them to protTude. The break
was so bad that the arm could not
be set, and DR.. Benedict ampu-
tated it at point three inches below
the shoulder. 1t is a pretty severe
mishap, and has cost the little fell
low his arm for the rest of his life.
Other boys may take lesson from
the sad occurrence.

Utah Southern Extension.

The indications are that the Utah
Southern Extension Railroad will
be run south for short dis
lance, at least. Engineers are
now out running preliminary
lines beyond Milford, with a
view to ascertaining the most
practicable route to tap the iron
range running from Iron Springs to
Iron City. 1t is probable that the
road will be pushed ahead so as to
tap the immense iron resources of
that vicinity, and at present, so far
as can be fundamentally ascer-
tanned, Iron Springs has the better
chances, as being nearer to Milford,
and to the Cedar City coal fields. 1t
is possible that the road, instead of
going to either of these places, will
strike a place between them, as at
almost any point in that section all
the iron ore can be obtained that can
be used in years.

A LITTLE MIXED.
And a Little thinking for the
Benefit of Local Newspapers.

Notwithstanding the fact that we
have kept our readers and contem-
poraries reliably informed regard
ing recent railroad movements
which affect Utah, the latter still
persist in getting a little mixed on
the subject. 1t is now assumed that
the Denver and Rio Grande Rail-
road is rot coming to this city, but
that the Sewer Valley Railroad will
run south and connect with the
| Denver and RE Grande near the
southeastern boundary of the terri
tory. This railroad may be called
by any name under the sun, but it
does not affect the Thoroughly estab-
llshed fact that 1t is none other than
the Denver and Rio Grande Rail-
road; that when completed it will
be owned and managed wholly and
solely by the Denver and Rio
Grande. The railroad law in force
IN this territory makes it necessary
that of the incorporat0rs of any rail-
road TO be run within the limits of
Utah, twO-thirds shall be actual
residents Of this territory. Now the
Denver and Rio Grande is a private |
corporation, and did not get its |
charter from Congress, as did the C.. |
L. and u. p, and for that reason it |
is forced to comply with the provis-
ions enacted by the legislatures of |
the several territories and states
through which the road intends to
run. For this reason the Denver
and Rio Grande people induced
some friends in this city to organize
a company as required by the laws
of Utah to secure the right of way
for its line through this territory.
All the money has been furnished
by the Denver and Rio Grande, all
the instructions have been given by
Denver and Rio Grande people, Den
yer and Rio Grande engineers are
doing the surveying in many parts
of the territory, and the whole
affair, save in the OStensible aspect,
Is in the hands of the Denver and
Rio GTande, and will remain so as
long as that company desires. 1t is
Denver and Rio Grande money that
has paid for the depot purchased in
this city, and it is the Denver and
Rio Grande which has negotiated for
and secured the Utah and Pleasant ,
Valley Railroad, statements to the
contrary Notwithstanding The
Irticle published in the HERALD
couple of months ago, making the
announcement that the Denver and
Rio Grande was coming to this city,
was an article of facts, and known
% be such by all persons who are in
/ position to be possessed of the
acts. The road may be called the :
SEWER Valley, or any name under !:
he high heavens, but as a matter of ::
absolute fact and to all genuine pur- J
POSES, it is the Denver and Rio =
Irande which will come to this city !
because the company owning that :
Dad will own this when completed; ;
md because the gentlemen, osten- !
IDLY connected with the Sewer l
Ialley road are not railroad builders, |
nd for very obvious reasons. 1t is
oped that our contemporaries will q
void getting mixed on this subject !.

BINGHAM, May II, 1881.

BINGHAM, May II, 1881.
Editors Herald:
Bingham's boom came at last
yesterday in the shape of snow and
rain, and Bingham Creek is rising
it rained and showed from the night
Of the Sth up to last night, and one
almost felt inclined to believe that
Mother Shipton's prophecy would
be verified by the occurrence of a
second deluge.
The camp never looked so blue as
it does now. There are but few men
here-about $50 all told. FOrtu-
nately, however, there is not an idle
man to be seen in the camp, and
there is work for all and few
more, If they were here searching
employment. Wood River and the
desire to get into that overrun coun-
try is the word with everybody.
The price of lead has dropped SO
low that people are disheartened,
and should it continue at the pre-
sent figures, smelling men may look
in vain for lead ores from Bingham
unless 3 few mines are diScoY-
cred like that written about, as
being discovered in Muddy GuIch,
the ore from which went over zoo
per cent. to the ton.
The only properties at present
being worked are the Lead, Yosem-
lite, Silver Crown; while in few
prospects parties are taking out a
little ore for a grub stake.
The Old Telegraph is doing but
little; their mill (Hazle, Grave s. |
Mullet's) will soon be in operation
on ore from the mine, concen-
trating it and working it under
lease.
The Lone Pine people are again |
trying to find ore. Five men are at |
work, and are likely at any time to
bring millions in sight.
The owners of the Stewart Ne.
are still working a small force, as
usual, and continue prospecting, as
they have done since the mill shut
down. There is more ore in sight to-
day than a 60-stamp mill could
crush in that many years, which ore
will average $14 per ton. The
Stewart No. 2 has equally as good a
showing. Ii
Cisler & Carpenter, at the head of
Bear Gulch, are developing their
gold claim. and are in sanguine
hopes of big raise. 1t is the gen.
eral opinion that they have a true j
assure Of free gold-bearing rock.

works at the mouth of the canyon,
