MATTERS IN MALAD, IDAHO.
The Body of Morgan p. Morgan Ex-
humed by Ghouls.

'HS D0dI VI NoTBal Fs mOFEdl EN-
humed by Ghouls.
There has been boiling under-cur-
rent of excitement in Malad for sew
eral days. The body of Morgan P.
Morgan, the man that was shot by
John Hurst for some cause, on the
2Sth OF last January, has been stolen
from the Malad cemetery. Whether
the body has been returned to the
grave is not yet known.
On Monday night, April 9th, FIVE
men were seen going in the direction
of the cemetery, by Mrs. Jephaniah
Jones, between II and II o'clock at
night; as the circumstances were so
unusual, Mrs. Jones was very strong
ly impressed by the incident and did
not sleep very soundly the rest of the
night. About 3 o'clock next morning
she saw the parties returning the way
they came; her comment on the cir
cumstance led to some inquiry and in
yestigatior which resulted in showing
that the grave had been disturbed on
the night in question and that the
body had been taken about three hun
dred yards from the cemetery to a
lone cabin, which stands on a posses
sorry claim and there it seems the
body was cut 10 pieces. Your cores
pondent with several other parties
visited the cabin since. The evidences
left were shocking to every instinct
of decency; the wreath that had en-
twined the coffin lay about the floor
in fragments, the flowers that had
been placed on his bosom by the kind
" hands of loving friends and rela-
tiyes, were scattered about the desc
late cabin besmeared with decompos-
ed matter from the body the ghouls
had mutilated, Evidently the head
of the deceased had been cut to pieces
as there we're large wisps of hair
about the premises. A large portion
of the brain was discovered in an old
pail some distance from the house, to-
gether with pieces of bone and flesh
that had been cut from the body.
The excuse for this fiendlsh, un-
natural act remains a mystery. If it
were concocted and carried out by the
defense for any purpose, without any
notice to the prosecution, whether it
was an attempt to make evidence for
the trial or for any other purpose that
under proper circumstances would be
legitimate, no condemnation can be
too severe for the dastardly perpetra-
tors. If the prosecution, without an
order from the court or without any
to the adverse party for
the purpose of holding a secret autopsy
or for any other purpose, did the in
human act, the only regret is that
there is not law on our Statute book
that would mete out the proper pun
ishment for such inhuman trickery.
There has been no investigation as
yet, for the purpose of ascertaining
whether or not the body, or the por-
ton that has not been found In the
building and other places around, has
been placed in the grave from which
it was taken, Today committee is
up the portions of the body
that have been discovered around
where the body was cut to pieces, for
the purpose of placing them in the
Journal.

Magnetic Attractions Which Impel
People to Buy in Hard

There are few things Of greater interest TO
people these days than the item of cheapnesB
in regard to proposed purchases. We don't be-
lieve that in times OF tight money peoples
tastes become any less refined, or that they
cease to appreciate good thing when they see
it, nor to desire 10 possess 1t, but those who
ordinarily spend money in Injuries are likely
to repress their desires to the line of neeessi-
ideas very generally find relief in a much
cheaper class OF goods than in ordinary good
times. People indeed will buy at all times
even things that they DO not absolutely need.
If they are attracted to the purchase by the
cheapness OF the article and the quality of the
goods This is the sec ct OF the enormous sue
at 800 E. spring street. Since its opening these
sales have been phenomenal, and at no time
during their progress have they been as gre at

DIVIDED OPINIONS.

Opinion in the financial world hai
probably never been more equally di.
vided than now in the United States
Every phase of temperament has its
representative. The sanguine think
that the passage of any kind of tariff
will result in phenomenal prosperity,
while the atrabilous individual is OF
opinion that it does not lie in the wis.
dom of man to devise any sort Of q meas
ure' that would give relief to the most
remarkable crisis ever known on the
American continent. Doubtless the
lies between the extremes mentioned.
Stocks OF goods have been so thoroughly
exhausted in all lines, both of foreign
importation and domsstics, that for sew
ersl months after the proclamation of
new tariff, or. after it has been thor.
oughly ascertained that we are to fall
back upon the existing tariff regime,
trade in all lines cannot help recovering.
There will inevitably be revival in our
dealings both at home and abroad, and
in the mere effort to partially supply
the gaps left in business during the past
fifteen months, there cannot fail
to be a period. indefinite in its
duration, in which Fictitious pros per-
ity will make amends to some extent for
the unparalleled industrial prostration
of over a year. Ii 10 heartily to be
hoped that this will come through
measure of tariff reform and revision
which shall involve large admission Of
the raw material OF manufactures to the
free list, because then, after the fret
uphesvsl, when it comes to slowing
down, we shall have made our depart
ure under Wholesome auspices, and we
shall be merely slackening our speed,
instead of again disorganizing our indus
tries. Those who havs taken roseate
view OF the progress OF tariff legisla-
tion have promised US that the new tar
if bill would reach the president by
the middle OF June. This was indeed a
eanguine calculation. When the senate
shall have com pleted its work a confer
ence of the committees of the two
houses will involve further delays, and,
unless there lie great tact upon the part
OF the conferees on both sides, we may
consider ourselves fortunate if We shall
be able to read the details of the new
tariff by the middle of July.

shores. Mr.. Elwood Cooper sent q case
Of his oil out to the Melbourne exhi BIZ
ton OF 1888, where it received the first
prize; and, after being submitted to the
severest chemical test, was pronounced
by the Australian judges to be the best
oil they had ever seen or tasted. Mr..
Cooper gives preference to the Mission
olives over any other variety and. as
be has spent nearly forty years In ex-
periments In this direction. his expe-
rience should be worth something to
new beginners in this industry.
AZ to where tees can be obtained,
there should be but little difficulty in
that quarter. There are large nurseries
of these trees at Pomona, Riverside,
Santa Barbara and National City, from
which the intending purchaser can take
his pick. The olives should be pressed
for oil as soon as they become thoroughly
red, not waiting for them to turn black,
at which period the olein decreases and
the stearine property becomes aug
mented. Again, we say the coast region
is the place for olive orchards. The
climate Is more favorable, the frosts be-
ing lees and if that is not an induce
ment sufficient. the prices of land along
the coast are generally cheaper. Some
say the whole coast. from Monterey to
San Diego, will be one continuous orchard
OF olive trees.

OLIVE ORCHARDS.

A correspondents writes to us asking
what ia the best variety of olives to
plant and what the beat soil on which to
plant them. In reply we would say that
there are endless varieties of olives
grown in this state, and that some spe-
cies seem to be better adapted to certain
localities than others.
Olives should be grown without irri-
CATION, if possible, for which reason the
lands near the coast seem to be best
fitted for the olive industry. Expert
encs in this nsighborhood has developed
the fact that the Sierra Madre foothills
produce the best oranges, while the
sterile cliffs next to the sea produce the
greatest amount OF oil in proportion to
the weight OF olives. Elwood Cooper,
of SAINTS Barbara, leads the whole state
in this industry, and Frank Kimball, OF
National City, is not far from being sec-
end in the race.
The recent experiments made under
supervision OF Professor Hiigard of the
state university, would almost settle the
question as TO whore olives can be best
grown. On this rich bottom lands, a
greater yield of oil WAC obtained, but
these oils were more difficult TO clarity
and also ahowed disposition TO coagu-
late at the first approach Of frosty
weather. This WAS particularly true OF
the oils made from the Varieties know WIN
as Oblonga and Rubra.
Thn Nh
producing smaller berry than most
Others, has its good qualities, for it is a
hardy tree and is but little affected by
the early frosts. Yet it is compare
lively unfit for picking and even the
quality of oil produced by it is inferior
to the Rubrs, the Oblongs and the Ne
vadilla. The chief objection to the Ne
vadills is its sensitivenese to the
approach OF frost, in which respect it is
about as bad as the Pendulina and the
Nigerina.
Taking one consideration with an
other. it is extremely doubtful if any
variety of olive stands the test as well
as the Mission variety. introduced here
by the priests who founded our Catholic
missions. Those priests came from
Spain, which has been an olive-grow-
ing country for centuries, and they evil

that variety before they left their native
