KENNER IN IDAHO.
He Is Doing Good work In Fremont
County.
LNC-AO Ut IV'-@''
To the Editor of The Herald:

Rexburg, Ida, Sept. %.
To the Editor of The Herald:
The Democrats of Fremont county
held their convention on Saturday last,
the 22nd inst, and the unanimty with
which it was conducted makes glar-
ing contrast to the convention held by
the Republicans a short time ago, the
methods of which were so obnoxious to
a. number of Republicans that there is
talk of their running an Independent
ticket.
In our convention the officers We're
nearly all nominated by acclama ton.
The main contest was for the office Of
sheriff. There were but two candidates
C. F. Fletcher, recent mail contractor
Market Lake hotel The vote stood:
Neeb, 49,; Fletcher, IL. With such an
overwhelming majority, Mr.. Neeb GER
tainly stands high in the opinion of
the people. Mr.. Fletcher is a good man,
but failed in the nomination, and he
accepts his defeat gracefully, and on
account of the discord in the 6. o. D.
ranks, Mr.. Neeb's election is assured,
for we claim this as a Democratic
county, anyway, although the people
have never had the chance to find out
just how it would go, for it was only
created two years ago, and all the Off
GERS were appointed by the governor,
which, of course, were all Republicans,
the governor being of that complexion.
Added to that, there are a large num-
Der of Mormon votes to be counted this
fall for the first time, but the opinion
of prominent men is that the county
will go Democratic. 1t ought to, for
the last two years of Republican rule
has soured many of their stron gest adj
herentS and sent a number of them into
the Populist ranks.
After the convention a banquet was
given in the evening at Rand's hotel,
for the delegates, the nomiJ-a-~ and in
vited guests, together with rnssr ladies.
in all between three and fo hundred.
After supper all adjourned to the Music
hall, where the audience was addressed
by S. A. Kenner on the principles of
our party. The hall was full of people,
and Judging from the loud anc fire.
quent applause he drove a good many
nails home during his remarks. Mr..
Kenner will stay in the county for
some time. He is doing excellent work
in disabusing the minds OF the people
of some of the fallacies that have been
drilled into them all summer by Ben
Rich. But Ben's talk is all right. for
the leaders of his party say that he has
made more Democrats than our own
party could possibly do.
Next in importance to the election of
officers is the location of a permanent
county seat. Three places are con-
tending for it, viz: Rexburg, st. An
thony, the temporary seat, and Market
Lake. IF such thing were possible.
the county seat matter will be even
hotter than the one for the election of
officers, but both together will make
times pretty lively from now until No
vember. w.

Received First Taxes.

The territorial treasurer has received
the first payment of taxes for the year
1894, the remittance coming from far
away Grand county, though being in
the sum of S116 A check for the
amount was found among the mail of
the treasurer yesterday morning and
the palm for promptness was awarded
to the collector of Grand. Treasurer
Whitehead is still waiting patiently fer
the 1893 taxes which are due from a
number of the counties, the largest
amounts being on the books against
Salt Lake and Weber counties. Both
of these owe in the neighborhood of
$500 and as yet no move looking to a
final settlement has been made.

the same showing, the case of the Des-
eret Savings bank may be cited as a
sample of the manner in which the peo-
pie are once more fiocking to those in
stitutions. During the year 1893 the
total deposits of the Deseret was re-
duced by the many drafts upon it to
about 100000, but with the coming of
the new year the tide turned and rapid
strides are being made in the other
direction. Already fully so per cent of
the losses have been made up and yes
$500, 900.
The recent attempt to cut the annual
interest paid to depositors in savings
banks from per cent, compounded
quarterly, to per cent, compounded
sen1i-annually, has fallen fiat, and it is
hardly probable that it will be revived
again.

Killed Old Dom

Poor old Don" is dead, and he did
not die of old age either. Don" was
the first pug dog to come to the terri
tory, being imported by the Eldredges
some twenty-three years ago. For
several years he has made the fire de-
partment his headquarters and was a
great favorite with the boys. Now the
latter are execrating the memory of
the murderer of their pet, for the faith
full animal was murdered, evidently
struck on the head with club. and his
body buried in a heap of refuse at the
rear of the department. They would
very much like to ascertain the name
of the miscreant who would take the
life of the animal in such manner.

SAVINGS DEPOSITS INCREASING.
Good Records Being Made BY the Lo-
cal Banks.

The general improvement in business
has no better exemplification than in
the case of the savings deposits Of this
city, which are generally taken as an
index of the financial condition Of the
people Of any section or community.
According to the reports of the execu-
tive officers of the institutions, there
has been a splendid increase in depos-
its this year and especially within the
past few months. During the panic of
1893 many Of the depositogs withdrew
their savings from the banks, and the
totals of the institutions showed very
heavy shrinkages, although, compared
with like banks of other communities,
they were still objects of considerable

passed away, the Withdrawals are re-
turning to the vaults, and in conse-
eiuence tile showings which will be
made by the local savings banks of the

fisttering.

on tapis, to occur in this city next
week. The contracting parties are
residents of an adjoining city, and are
of high rank, socially aud otherwise.
The event is being kept secret as pos
sible, and particular pains have been
taken to prevent it reaching the pub
lie ear. The candidates for matri-
mony will arrive on one train, have
the nuptials sOlemnized and leave a
few hours later for bridal tour The
wedding will be as quiet and unosten-
tatious as possible.
