Sewer, as well as from some of the
towns of Piute.
The MAILS OF Elsinore and Monroe,
south of here, are permitted to lie in
Richheld from m. on the day Of ar
rival, until o'clock the next morning,
and the Saturday mail (the one. most
eagerly sought for) remains from 4
O'Clock Saturday afternoon, until 9
O'Clock the following Monday morning
only period of forty-one hours.
This is bit of apathy that the lons-,
suffering and needlessly isolated people
of the south are beginning to vigorously
protest against, and 1t is TO be hoped
that the postmasters and people will
keep up their work until this meagre
distance is annihilated, and until their
mail facilities are placed on an equal
footing with their sister towns.
THE PEOPLE of Richfield, assisted by
citizens of Elsinore, Central, ETC., are
busily engaged in taking out large
new canal from point far up the
Sewer. 1t is thought, and that wisely
too, tAat the completion of this excel
lent enterprise will mark a new era in
the agricultural growth of Sewer
County. There are several tracts of
land lying between Elsinore and Rich
field and north of Richfield which are
said to be very fertile, but which hith-
ertO have been lying dormant. 1t is the
object Of this new canal TO supply
water for these sections. thus bringing
under cultivation q much wider area.
With y good railroad and this new
canal compl gted, Riehfield corner lots
will undoubtedly command handsome
price.
LIKE TEE people of Manti and other
parts of Sanpete. the citizens here can
scarcely understand why the enterprise
of some OF our bona fde railroad COM
panies does not lead theNa to turn their
faces toward the fertile south. The
people here wish to divide the henors
of re ,oarces with SsnpeIe. They again
like Sanpete, insist that they have
more than CLIMATE to offer
and should be pleased for prospective
builders TO come and examine their |
various resources for themselves. If
such inspectors are not satisfied with |
the volume of sereal products. sheep |
and cattle industries, milling fIcilities, |

the people ask shat they continue
their journey further and examine the |
of low-grade ore, the timber,
etc. of Marysville. When this isdone the
people are sure that the company will
suit the action of the word and COM
nsenc- work at once.
