During the year 1883, tho amount Of
bullion shipped from White Oaks was
$lSO,0OO. An average Of eghty-six men
we're employed each day, including pros
pectors, which, at an average OF SO per
day each, would, in round numbers, ag-
gregate $50, 75S. per year. Some of the
mines observe the Sabbath, so that in
this estimate but 3l3 working days are
counted. But some of the mines are
worked 1855 days, SO that our iigures on

THE RIVERS AND THE LAKE.

Some of the eastern newspapers, getting
their inspiration from a communication in
a local contemporary, are expressing fear
that the taking out Of Bear river and other
streams will dry up Great Salt Lake, and
destroy that magnificent body of water. 1t
is limited that the government should inter
fere in the matter, and preserve the lake
against what is little less than vandal-
ism" AS the song says, all this is very.
very funny. Wepresume that for every gal
lon Of water which flows into the lake from
the surface, q hundred gallons reach it
from below. 1t is a fact which has been
demonstrated pretty thoroughly during the
past forty years, that the surface flow has
comparatively little effect on the volume
of water in the lake, thigh water'' years
not materially changing the condition of
things, and dry years" decreasing the
depth comparatively little. The lake being
the lowest place in the valley the
water which comes into the valley
eventually finds its way to the lake
But suppose that the diverting of Bear
river were to materially lessen the volume
of water in the lake, who would say that
Bear river should not be diverted! Ger
tainly nobody in this valley, and we, more
than any other people on earth, are inter
ested in the matter. Great Salt Lake is
valuable in many ways, and has of late
years come to be a source of considerable
revenue to the territory; but the waters of
Bear river, judiciously spread on the land,
are worth a hundred times more to Salt
Lake valley and Utah, than they would be
in the lake. When that grand stream shall
be made to irrigate the land in its vicinity, |
now worthless, homes will be provided for
thousands and tens of thousands of people. |
However, it is as idle to talk about the |
lake drying up as it is to propose to put |
stop to leading the rivers and streams |
hereabouts onto the land

statement that parliament will not be asked
TO provide for the young couple, the father
giving his son a marriage settlement. This
is such a radical departure from the rule
that it will astonish the world quite as
much as it pleases the taX-ridden English
people who dread royal marriages because
the latter mean more burden for the tax
payers. We shouldn't wonder if the Prince
of Wales expects to be king in the near fu-
ture, and that he foregoes this claim on the
public treasury in the interest of personal
popularity.
