A BAD JOB.
James warren Shoots Himself Oh
His M others Grave.

LocKpoRT, June 29.-Therc was SCH
sational suicide at the Corwin cemetery,
in the town Of Newfane The victim
was James Warren, about 10 years OF
age, and lifelong resident OF this
county, with the exception of the past
year, during which he lived with sister
at Albion, Mich. He came to Lockport
yesterday from the west, took the after
noon stage running to Olcott, and when
the Corwin cemetery, about six miles
from Lockport, was reached, he got out
and told the driver to ask William Kin
ncy, living u short distance beyond the
cemetery, to come for him in about an
hour.
Mr.. Kinney received the message, and
on going to the cemetery found Warrcn
lying prone upon his mothers grave with
bullet in his head. He had shot himself
through the mouth. Warren was not
dead, and was taken to Mr.. Kinney
house, where III died at II O'Clock last
night. He was conscious before death
and said "lm sorry made bad job o
it," His resort to suicide is attributed tc
dcspondency caused by protracted i'll
ness from rheumatism.

a List of the Tracts Purchased
by the Young Millionaire.
Barrels of money for acres of land
Or to he palmer, over $+O0 900 for a
little over 5000 acres of dirt.
For months much has been said by pa
pcrs outside of Ashcvile about the
amount of money spent by George Van
,lcrbilt in the purchase OF his extensive
grounds in and around Biltmorc, near
this city.
These statements were, of course, mere
guess work, and the majority of the csti-
mates have been 50 low as to make the
idea OF home on SO grand a scale rs
that proposed by the young millionaire
somewhat ridiculous. One paper, for in
stance, not long ago stated that Mr..
Vanderbilt had bought several thousand
acres OF land in Buncombe county, the
total cost OF which was about $4,000
In view OF these facts THE CITIZEN has
taken the matter in hand and, with the
aid of the books in Register Mackcy's S
office, is able today to present very
nearly corccct statement Of what MIR.
Vanderbilt hac purchased and what he
has paid for the land bought.
1t will be noticed that according to the
deeds on several transfers only nomi'
nal price has been paid. In these cases
the valuation has been computed at
what is considered an average price.
This addition amounts to $780, 900,
and the total thus scrcatcdis$ $44O. .429.27.

A Serious Charge.

Quite a sensation was disclosed late
night before last. Superintendent Joseph
Barton, of the territorial reform school.
was arrested on a charge of adultery, said
to have been committed with one Of the in
mates of the institution, Maggie Faulkner.
1t will be remembered that Clarence
Goddard and the girl made an attempt to
escape from the reform school and were
afterward captured at Terrace, Utah, by
Marshal Pattberg. of that place, On a
Southern Pacific train.
Maggie was an inmate of the school, but
was discharged last December for good
behavior. She went home, but returned
TO the school soon after and begged 10 De
allowed to remain, and she was taken oaca
and paid wages.
Last Tuesday she stated to her mother
that Mr.. Barton had been criminally init
mate with her, whereupon Mrs. Faulkner
Immediately made complaint against Mr..
Barton on the aforesaid charges.
MIR. Barton Immediately gave bonds, and
the case was called for hearing at O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. MIR. Pattburg, the
officer who made the arrest, was the only
witness examined According to his evil
dence it is believed the two had these
charges made against Mr.. Barton il hopes
of making safe their escape. Further con-
tinuance of the case was postponed until
Monday morning at 10 o'clock. The gen.
eral sympathy of the public is with Mr..
Barton and il is believed to be a clear case
for matchmaking intentions.

reason Of increased home consumption the
market prices in Utah will always be reg
ulated BY the prices in Europe. We export
one-ffth of our wheat and meat product;
consequently, to get an exclusively home
market we must increase the number OF
our consumers 25 per cent without any in
crease in production or to our u. 000, 600 OF
population we must add IL, DOC, 900 who do
not till the ground or prepare the products
OF the farm for market-that is, merchants,

the food produced stand the waiting!

Enurfh Ward Democrats.

President G. R. Belnap was bound to
out do the Republicans and succeeded.
Hon. j. w. Judd made an argument which
so far eclipsed the feeble efforts of the pre-
vious evening that comparisons would be
unfair. The judge explained in the plain
est and most conclusive manner the funds-
mental differences in the two great parties,
and no man who heard him and who be-
leves in a government in which all men
should be equal before the law, went away
with anything but love and admiration for
the Democratic party.
Hon. L. X. Rhodes put more fire and zeal
in TO mis- speech, As might be expected of
him. MIR. Rhodes political career has been
a fight against odds, and it has developed
in him propensity to pull off his coat and
make things lively for his opponents An
Iowa or Colorado Democrat never coaxes
his audience with sugar plums and sweet
meat
MIR. Rhodes speech was strong and had a
good effect.
This club meets every Thursday even
ing at $50, and President Belnap promises
something entertaining every meeting.

City Hall Republican Rally.


1t was fair audience that received John
Henry Smith and others at the city hall
Thursday evening. There were about
three of the far to one Of the coarser sex.
Mr.. Smith told how from boyhood up to
his present splendid physical proportions
he had loved the Republican party: Of his
travels in many foreign lands and of the
patriotic ardor which warmed within him
when his eyes caught sight of that starr v
flag which our forefathers had nailed to the
masthead and which had been so proudly
maintained there by the Republican party,
under whose fostering care our merchant
marine tonnage had decreased from 5, 0o0,-
600 IN 1860 TO 4, 000, 600 in 1890, while that Of
Great Britain had increased from $780,
700 to II, 000, 900 in the same period. Mr..
Smith did not give these figures, but they
exist just the same. He told how well the
Utah miners were paid and how well they
fed of the things they bought from Utah
farmers, and he longed for the time when
high-paid and extravagant miners and fac
tory laborers all over the land would
consume all that the American farmer
could raise. The prices paid to Utah farm
ers by Utah miners were not given, but
probably they were not much in advance
of the market prices at Ogden. Salt Lake,
Provo and Nephi. As Utah exports bread
stuffs, meats and fruits. all that goes into
. miners stomach, except wet groceries, it
follows that the market price of those
articles at the above named places is the
prices at the places to which they were
shipped, less cost of transportation and
profits of middlemen- They are shipped
to San Francisco. Portland, Chicago and
New York ultimately, though perhaps
stopping and changing ownership at some
intermediate point, and as those places in
turn export all these articles SO that thew
finally reach The European market it fol
lows that the last named market fixes the
price of all our exports of these articles.
and the prices in the Utah towns are the
pr ices in the European market less trans
portation and profits of Commission
and middlemen. 1t also follows
that until exports Of these articles cease by
