Claytonand Wash Burke were killed, Law
renee CLAYTON fatally wounded, and Floyd
Burke shot in the arm. The tragedy or
isinated. in Lawrence Clayton making
some improper remark to Miss Burke, a
daughte! Of the: man killed. The father
and his sons heard of the insult and tried
to make Clayton apologize but failed.
Young clayton was sustained by his faith
er. rha two families armed themselves
with gufs and pistols and when they met
the tragedy was the result. The parties
killed were the most respected citizens in
the counay, and were the heads Of large
families The tragedy was participated in
bv four members of the Burke family and

Taxing Mines.

In discussing the subject of taxing mines
the Salt Lake 1yibune says: The mines
of Utah are the great source OF our COM
mon prosperity Whether they pay or
not, they are Of immense benefit to the
community. They make market for
produce, Tor labor, and for the products of
inventors. Withdraw them, and nothing
worth the. taxing would remain in the Ter
ritory. They furnish the only source of
keeping a supply of money in circulation
in Utah, as there is nothing that could be
sold for cash here save for the mines. They
are what makes everything else valuable,
whether they are valuable in themselves
or not. To tax them would be in most
cases to close them down, which would be
a calamity infinitely greater than could be
compensated BY the widest estimate of re-
turn from the mining tax.

The Occur d. Alene Excitement.

c. F. Annett, general manager Of the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone Co., who
returned last Tuesday night from an ex-
tended trip throughout Montana and Idaho,
says Ceur d Alene, the new Eldorado, is
the topic Of conversation everywhere you
go. From so to IS people get off the
Northern Pacific trains at Belknap, Trout
Creek, Thompson's Falls and Heron Sid
ing daily. He went over the Belknap road,
l3 miles, which road is now being cut
through to Eagle City. They expect to
have it completed in ten davs or sooner.
A line of stages will be put ON this road
Immediately on completion of the road.
The trail he considers first-class one in
every respect; in fact will be the shortest
and most practicable route to the mines.
The distance by this trail will not exceed
20 miles. Belknar is bound to be the out
fitting point for the mines. A large hotel
is to be completed in two weeks and is
already rented to party coming from
Colorado. Buildings are being erected as
fast as lumber can be got to build with.
Mr.. Annett will return to Beiknap in ten
days to complete his arrangements for Il
telephone system from that point to Eagle
City. From that point his telephone sys-
tenn will branch out and take in all the
different mining camps of the Ceur d.

to influence the government towards

under which the people suffer. Though
hitherto strong supporter Of the Govern

and fearlessly fight to free her from the

he will call the local legislature together

Decision as to Final Proof.

On the fifteenth OF January last, the
commissioner of the general land Office
rendered decision that clerks Of organ
lied counties where courts were not held'
could not take final proof in land cases.
The decision also recognizes the authority
of Judges and clerks other than those OF
district courts to take affidavits in such
cases. Under this decision as it stood
originally, proofs in over 1000 land cases
would have been ruled out. The CON-
missioner has, however, in letter to the
register and receiver at Huron, Dakota,
rendering a supplemental decision must
not be regarded as retroactive, but as de.
signed for the government of local land
offices in the future. Proofs heretofore
m made will not be interfered with. In pend
ing cases where notice to make proof has
already been published the proofs may be
taken according to the published notice, but
in future the final afidavits must be taken
before the Judge of court Of record who
may be probate judge or before the clerk
of the proprr court, when such clerk is
duly qualified ard authorized to act as set
forth in the decision referred to. In pre-
empted or commuted homestead cases
when the affidavit is made before Judge
of probate conrt acting as clerk OF his
own court, it may SO appear in the jurat.
