Storms east of Ogden "downedn the tele-
graph wires this afternoon and cut of most
of the usual press report.
It would be we'll for people to be on the
lookout for burglars, and not to become too
absorbed in the shooting of Saturday.
Since the DEMOCRAT called for the macad-
anlizing of Main street, the cry has been
taken up and is becoming quite popular.
Keep the cry up until Main street is macad-
amized or paved.
A dramatic company made up of Salt Lake
talent, under the management of Harry
Taylor, will play "a Sea of Ice'' in Provo
tonight. "a Sea of Ice" is suggestive of a

The rise in lead is great encouragement
to the miners in the lead camps of Utah, and
there is now more activity in the old dis
tricts than has been manifest for years past.
1t looks like old times.

The DeSeret NesCS woke up long enough

NeOs should now turn over and resume its
lewd and lascivious slumbers.

The Mormon people and their leaders
understand their business. They know
which is the wisest course to pursue They
understand the frailty and vulnerability of
the enemy.-Ogden Herald. Certainly they
do, so why deny that "frailty" and Fanny
Davenport go together.
Mrs. Wilson, an old offender before the
police court bar of justice, was fined S25
this morning by Judge Speirs, for being
drunk, profane and disorderly. When the

heaved a sigh like a woman getting a tooth
pulled, who is determined not to show the
operation hurts.

raj house. The whole business indicates
ich way the wind blows
