THE CHALLENGE DENIED
Gov West Declared to Re Properly Quail
flied to Vote at the August Election.
Special to the MoRS1xa DISPATCH.

Special to the MORNING DISPATCH.
SALT LAKE CITY, July 30.-The re-
suit of the inquiry into the objection
lodged by Thomas r. Thompson
against Ex-Governor Vests right to
register in Utah and his consequent
right to vote created considerable spec
ulation in political circles, and the fol-
lowing written opinion handed down
by Registrar Parsons this morning will
be discussed with interest:
DECISION Of the registrar in the case
OF objection by Thomas r. Thompson
to the right OF Caleb w. West to vote.
After careful consideration of the
evidence of the different witnesses who
testified in this case there remains
hardly the shadow of doubt i'm nv
mind that it was the intention of Mr.
West when he left Utah n,December last
to permanently abandon Salt Lake as a
place of residence. The evidence of
every witness, except one, on the stand
Tor the prosecution was that Mr.. West
had himself, in one or more conversa-
tons held with these gentlemen, sep
arately and at different times, given
them to understand that he was going
to establish himself in business in
Washington, though it does not ex-
pressly appear that he said to any one
of them in so many words:
Il am going to abandon my residence
in Utah"
That such was his intention at that
time. there remains no doubt in my
mind. However, Mr.. West has been
governor of Utah territory, and now oc-
cupies prominent position here. and l
have decided to leave it with him to
decide whether he can honorably cast
a vote here, in view of his declarations
change of residence from
Utah to Washington last fall.
The challenge is denied.

An Important DECISION.

ST. PAUL, July 3O-A Pierre. s. D.
special to the Pioneer-Press says: Con-
siderable comment has been aroused
by the decision of the United States
court in regard to the status Of the
children born Of Indian woman and
white or citizen husband. The case
was that of the United States Veter-
nary Surgeon Ward, on a charge of
selling liquor to a half breed. The ev-
idence was that The half-breed in cues
tiOn had q negro father, who was
citizen, and an Indian
mother The decision of the court is
that the children follow the status of
their father, and hence are citizens of
the United States and amenabIe only
to its laws. If the decision holds good
it will affect the ownership of the great
est part of the lands taken up in the vi
cinity of Fort Pierre and Stanley across
the river from Pierre, as it is nearly all
held by squaw mems children or their
wives

Mr.. Sprunt in Concord.

The Charlotte Neps of Monday, con-
tanned the following:
Very large congregations attended
the services at the First Presbyterian
church of Concord on yesterday both
morning and night. The communion
was administered in connection with
the morning service and the sermon
was by Rev. Alexander Sprunt whose
preaching has attracted so many inter-
ested hearers. He is engaged in evan
gelistic labor in the Synod of North
Carolina, and by his earnest and prac-
teal expositiOns of Gods word, is
doing most successful work. His
evening discourse was solemn appeal
for decision in becoming Christian.
A contribution of over 5000 was made
to the cause of evangelistic work.
To rise in the morning with bad taste
in the mouth and no appetite. indicates
that the stomach needs strengthening. For
this purpose, there is nothing better than
an occasional dose of Ayers Pills taken
bed time.

according to directions. In the morning
is the best time to take it.
