THE SCHOOL TRUSTEES
THE COMING ELECTION WILL BE a
PARTISAN ONE.
Republicans Have Already Called
Primaries in Two FREDERICKSBURG
Meeting Held Last Night.

The election of school trustees next
month will in all probability be OF
partisan nature.
At least, that was the sense of the
meeting held last night. There were
present II precinct committeeman.
Democrats and 10 Republicans. In the
absence of the regular officers elected
at the previous meeting, Charles Crane,
of the Fourth precinct, was elected
temporary chairman and George d.
Alder secretary.
The chairman called for expressions
of opinion from the gentlemen present
as TO the ACCESSIBILITY of calling non
partisan primary for the naming OF
candidates for the school board. Mr..
Denny, chairman Of the First precinct
Democratic committee, stated that he
did not think that the First precinct
was in any position to take action in
the matter of placing the school board
on a non-partisan basis.
George D. Alder also made remarks
as to the chances of getting a nom
partisan candidate on the school board,
which he considered doubtful.
The Second precinct not being rep
resented by either party, no report
was given other than that the chair
man Of the precinct Republican COM
mittee had called a primary for the
election of a partisan candidate
Mr.. Smith, Democrat OF tho Third
precinct, stated that the Democrats of
name a Democratic candidate.
Mr.. Geddes, F. D. Kimball, w. L.
Dykes and Mr.. Mcmillan, Repub-
hcans of the Third precinct, stated that
unless a Republican was returned from
the third precinct to the school board,
there they would fight it out upon par
ty lines.
Mr.. F. O. Horn, of the Fourth pre-
cinct, stated that he was not in favor
of a non-partisan movement in that
precinct, and Jack Daveler, Of the same
precinct. held the same view.
Mr.. Burt, of the Fourth, made a
statement that If the Democrats did
their duty and kept their contract
they would return g. Republican to the
school board.
Mr.. Whitney, of the Fifth precinct,
stated that he thought that this meet
ing was only wasting time as two of
the precincts had already called their
Republican primaries, thus thwarting
the objects of this meeting.
J. w Whitehead, Jr-, Democrat, of
the Fifth. was in favor of sending a
Republican member to the board from
the Fifth.
Nh Kelsey. of the Fifth, said that he
did not believe in on-partisanship,
stating that he did not believe that
non-partisans could be made cut of
partisans. This was also the idea. of
Max Iippman.
Chairman Crane stated that he would
like to see the school board non-parti-
san. but did not see how it could be
accomplished.
1t being evident that under the cir
cumstances the movement could
amount to nothing, the meeting ad
journed.

TALK WITH SAN GODBE.
HE HAS JUST RETURNED FROM
SOUTHERN NEVADA.
Captain De Lamar ON His Way to
New YOrk-Much Activity in the
South-New Mill at Bingham.

Samuel T. Godbe, who halls from al
most every camp in southeastern Neva-
da, in practically all of which he has
mining interests, is in the city, having
just returned from the Vanderbilt, Vel
low Pine, keystone and Ferguson dis
tricts. The gentleman is one of the
principal owners in the Keystone Min
ing company, which is operating a
mill at the town of the same name on
gold ores from its own properties. The
company is having a very successful
run and unlike the great majority of
the mines in Nevada, the keystone has
plenty of water for all purposes.
To Mr. G -dbe's efforts was due the
sale of the Monitor and Jim Crow gold
properties to Captain John r. DeLamar
and the gentleman is SO entirely in the
confidence of the captain that he can
speak by the card Notwithstanding
the financial troubles of Blake, one of
the prime movers in the project to ex-
tend the Nevada Southern through to
Milford. tapping the iron and coal fields
of Iron county and the agricultural dis
tricts of the entire southern part of the
territory, the little road is to be ex-
tended at once fifty miles northeast into
the Yellow Pine lead district and ulti-
mately through to Milford. Captain
De Lamar is now on his way back to
New York and while there he will ar
range the details for some extensive
railroad bu lding. The Santa Fe is back
ing the fifty miles extension of the
Nevada Southern in order that the
great lead properties in the Yellow Pine
district, several of which are owned
by Allen G. Campbell, may be given
an outlet for their product, something
they have never had before The little
road is now operating into the Wander
bilt district and it's extension even the
few miles just now contemplated will
open up some wonderfully rich country
Mr.. Godbe has very recently visited
Vanderbilt and while there saw Allen
G.. Campbell, who is operating in the
district, and Hon. Robert c. Lund, of
st. George who is there looking over
some properties.
1t is anticipated that within the next
six weeks the great stamp mill at De
Lamar will be in full operation. The
water problem has been settled by the
development Of large and steady
stream. The properties OF the Ferguson
district are all looking well and a great
dead of prospecting is being done.
F.: At Bullionville W. S. Godbe it putting
in a cyanide mill for the purpose of
working the tailings from the old mill.
The new plant is practically completed
and would have been in operation some
time ago but for the sudden illness of
Mr.. Godbe.
: Messrs. Langford, Eldredge, Smith
and other Salt Lake and Logan parties
are now putting in a ten stamp mill at
Sterling and have great faith in the dis
trict, which is comparatively new. The
mil machinery is now all on the ground
and a saw mill put up by the company
&c La
for the BUILDINGS. 1t is said that the
properties of the company make a
splendid showing in gold and the indica-
tons are that the gentlemen have
pinned their faith to nothing less than
a bonanza. -

THE COLT AFFAIR.
oyIer Gives Important
Testimony.

Columbus, O.. Nov. 23.-Lieutenant
Oyler, who ordered the troops at Wash
ington court house to fire, in accord
ance with the orders of Colonel Colt, in
a given contingency, testified today in
the court of inquiry to the battering Of
the doors by the mob with stones and
other things. He said:
The shot fired by a person on the
outside was followed by cry all to-
gether' and a terrific blow opened the
south door four feet when gave COM
mand to fire. After one volley I gave
command to cease firing The door
was open but few inches; none Of the
men were Intoxicated
Witness was confident the mob was
determined upon getting in. The line
of soldiers outside around the building
would have been easily overcome. Such
defense would have been idiotie. He
saw at least fifty -revolvers in the crowd
in the afternoon.

NEW SHEEP ROAD.
Completed Over Big Mountain From
ParIey's to Emigration Canyons.

The new sheep route over Big Noun
tain from Parley's into Emigration
canyon, has been completed under di-
rection of Watermaster Wilcken. The
trail is three rods wide, without count
ing the good wagon road that trav-
erses its entire length. The object in
constructing it was TO avert the be-
fouling of Parley's creek by the droves
of sheep going to and coming from the
summer ranges in the eastern part of
the territory and Wyoming; but the
sheep owners are not likely to use the
new trail if it proves disadvantageous
to them in early spring and early win
ter seasons. Sheep men claimed last
summer that the proposed route s4ould
be impracticaIble ct the seasons the
sheep come and go to winter range on
the western desert, on account OF the
great depth of snow usually found
then on the summit of Big Mountain.
With the first snowstorm it will prob
ably be demonstrated whether the
sheep men will submit 10 driving their
flocks over the new route without con-
testing in the courts for what they
term their constitutional rights to ira
verse any highway they choose.

BrubecIS and Pearson Back From a
Tour of Inspection.


Messrs. Brubeck and Pearson re-
turned yesterday from their inspection
of the Sanpete Valley railroad, and
particularly the recently completed
branch.
President Brubeck was highly
pleased with the condition of the road,
the amount of business being done and
the future prospects. There is much
work ahead and it will not be until the
first of the year until the plans now
being carried out are completed.
Part of the machinery for the COM
pany's coal mine at Morrison has been
received and coal could now be shipped
into this market if fair rates could be
obtained from the connecting lines.
The full force Of surveyors on the
broad-gauging of the line north from
Monroe to this city, last night camped
in Nephi canyon, about four miles out
from Nephi. BY Saturday night the
line will have reached the mouth of
the canyon. Very rapid progress is
being made and a highly satisfactory
grade secured.

Since receiving their notices of water
tax many water rate-payers have regis
tered a kick at what they deem an I'M
Just assessment. In some cases COM
plainants have declared their rates were
doubled this year. Both the assessing
and collecting departments of this
branch of the municipal government
are kept busy informing the city's
debtors for water the why's and where
fores of the current fiscal years assess
ments. The explanation is made by the
officials that while this years ordi-
nance establishing the rates is pre-
cisely the same as the one in force last
year, more accurate assessing has been
done than heretofore, and II any one
is to be blamed for the complaints 1t is
the trainers Of the ordinance. However,
most of the kicks have come from the
large consumers. Superintendent
Daley maintains that the rates are low
and that the ordinance is just and
equitable to all consumers, both large
and small, and he will bank on the
careful, conscientious charges made by
Chris Diehl, the field assessor. AS to
complaints as to overcharges and errors,
except those Of a clerical nature, which
are corrected on attention being called
thereto, and such instances are rare,
the council is the only body having
hsMority to order adjustments of griev-
