wake the breath of prosperity Manti is
located 125 miles in southeasterly direc-
ton from Salt Lake on the Sewer
valley branch of the Rio Grande
Western and is the capitol of San
pete county. Her population is a little
over three thousand. Manti is at
present an agricultural city, but the posi-
bilities and conditions are excellent for a
manufacturing town, as well as distribut-
ing centre, the place being naturally cen
trally located. The agricultural products
show yearly output of about one hundred
thousand bushels of grain. The lumber in
terests are of no small account and form
one of the chief industries of the town. 1t
is in Manti that the Mormon temple is
located, this being the temple nearest the
centre of the territory. A brief description
OF this magnificent ediice is not out of
order. 1t covers an area of 171x95 feet and
is 80 feet to the parapet. To this is added
a tower on either end 30 feet square, the
front or west of which rises SO feet, and
the one on the east % feet The building
is of white sandstone, or oolite, and is fin
ished in the most elegant style in every de-
tail. There are number of supple
mentary buildings and the grounds
are laid off in beautiful terraces
which when finished and the trees
growing will present grand appear
ance. This temple is the loadstone to a
very large transient population and is an
object of considerable Importance.
Among the representative men of Manti
we may refer to the following as being

enterprise and executive ability: Mr..

ASSURES A WHITE MAJORITY.

New Orleans. Aug. 1.-The regis
tration OF Mississippi shows that the
provision In the new constitution OF
that State in regard to the prepay.
ment Of poll taxes has had the effect
expected. namely. the diminution OF
the negro vote. The trainers OF the
constitution aimed to prevent the
negro from securing political control
OF the State by two provisions. one
occurring the payment OF poll taxes
four months In advance OF an election.
and the other by an educational quail
fieation. The payment OF poll taxes
went into immediate operation. The
zine for the payment OF the tax ex
pkred in July. so that IL Is now known
how the law has operated
Returns from thirtystwO out OF
iifty-five counties show that 4.911
whites and II .331 negroes registered
IL the proposition is kept up in ths
other counties the total registration
will be 9S.495 whites and 35. 300
negroes. or white majority of a.
600. More than three-fourths OF the
negroes have declined TO register or
pay the poll tax. In only one county.
Bolivar, is there a registered negro
majority. and even there more than
half the negroes faied TO register. In
Yazoo. out OF 5000 negroes entitled TO
registration. only seventyeeight
availed themselves OF the privilege
and in Lowndes. out of 5000 there
were only forty-four. In the southern
portion OF the State about one-half
the negroes registered. but in the
heavy negro counties OF the Yazoo
delta not one-fifth. and in many coun-
ties not one in ten registered. About
8 nor cent OF the whites are disfran-
chised by the new provision and in
counties the loss runs as high as %
per cent. but never higher. The poll
tax provision OF the new constitution
of Mississippi. therefore. assures a
large white majority OF votes in that
