Sewerage for Salt Lake City has be-

may be said both ways. Sewerage for
the entire city is an impractcabis hing

thickly settled portions of the cisy, it
may be practicable in the near future,
but it is an expensive undertaking any
way. .l aaa lBl

in hand soon, and effeetually, ana that
is the subject OF the abominable cess

law from mixing wheat Messrs. Peavey are
anxious that precautions should be taken TO
keep up the standard of the grade, not only
for their benefit, but for the credit of the
state grades They are afraid that this ad
mitted universal practice of mixing wheat
Will debase the grades, unless great care is

when they come TO ship in the spring that
