Drop Squabbling and Begin Cleaning.
| To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
going on one would think that the Office Of
health officer was!only created to furnish some
| politician out OF job fat salary and the
| power to appoint understrappers to lucrative
offices. think may safely say that voice
the sentiments of nine out Of every ten Of our
| inhabitants when state that We care precious
little about the political complexion of the man
| who aspires to be the head Of the body which
| is to stand guard over the public health, but
| that we do demand Of him the requisite knowl-
| edge for the position and the honesty and de-
votion to duty required to mako it effective for
!. the public good.
| In my humble opinion the best thing the
Commissioners could do would be to drop the
whole billing concerned in the disgusting
squabble and then appoint to the position some
physician Of good standing, common sense
and known integrity, who has been too busy
attending to his legitimate business to spend
his time in pulling wires and forming cliques
| to further bis designs.
II that were done there might be . chance
| that needed reforms would be inaugurated and
| so-callcd back streets kept at least decently
clean. There might be, for instance, remote
possibility that D street southeast near 7th
would be cleared Of the piles Of refuse, ashes,
&C., which have encountered it to = greater or
less degree continually for years, and, in time,
who knows? our city might become altogether
what it il partially only today. the cleanest,
healthiest place in the United States.

3sIeep-Four Lives Taken-Heads
Crushed and Threats Cut.


ST. GEORGE, UTAH. Aug. 9.-F'Or num-
Der Of years there has been living on Il
ranch six miles west of this city a man
named Richard Bell. He was sober and in
dustrious, and an uncompromSng anti
Mormon man. He paid little attention 10
politics. except 10 90 regularly TO the polls
and vote against every Mormon interest.
He had a family of wife and two sons,
aged eighteen and sixteen. Many threats
have been made against Bel by the Nor
mons but as he and his sons were known
to be dead shots with the rifle, the opposi-
ton was confined to the threats. Twice at
tacks We're made on Bell when he was out
at night, but both times the assaIiauts We're
WorSted
On the 9th Of August John Richards of
this place had business with Bell and rode
out to his ranch to see him. When ne got
there he found the place apparently de
serted. He thought that the family had
gone away temporarily, and was just about
to leave when when his attention was at
tracted by a horse whinnying in the stable.
He went there and found the animals nearly
dead for want of food and water. This
caused him to examine the house. and find
ing the doors locked he returned TO town
and reported the facts as he found them A
posse at once started out 10 The place and
forced the door open. They found the
whole family dead in bed :. Eachs had been
murdered, and the work had evidently
been done while the victims We're asleep,
for none had struggled. Bell and his wife
both had their heads crushed, while the
boys had their threats cut from ear to ear.
