ANOTHER WHITE SQUADRON SHIP
Quick Trip of the Trim GunbOat
Bennington to Port.
She May Remain in Port for Three
Months-The Olympia Will Come
to Relieve Her.

The U. S. S. Bennington, Com
mander Charles M. Thomas, U. S.
n, commanding, arrived from San
Francisco yesterday morning. She
came down in 7 days and 13 hours
-four hours quicker than the
Yorktown'S trip of last December.
The Bennington is a sister ship
to the Yorktown. It is her first
visit to this port. She is a trim
looking cruiser of the third-class.
She carries 185 men all told. Her
armament is as follows: Six 6-inch
guns, two six-pounders, two three
Founders, two gatlings, and two
thirty-seven milometres. The yes
sci is $50 feet long and Sc feet
wide; she draws IA feet of water.
Her hull is made of steel.
The following is list of her
officers:
Commander Charles NJ. Thomas,
Lieutenant A. B. Speyer, executive
officer.
Lieutenant w. p. Elliott, navigator
Watch Officers-Lieutenant II. Il.
Mayo, Lieutenant G. p. Eaton, Ensign
II. J. Fiegemeier, Ensign G. B. Nc
Way, Jr.
Ensign r. J. HOrtung.
Chief Engineer, J. K. Barton.
p. A. Engineer, G. Il. HILBERT.
Paymaster, J. S. Phillips.
Pay Clerk, d. M. Addison.
The officers of the ship expect to
remain in port for about three
months. This is merely a SUPPOSE
ton on their part nothing positive
will be learned until the return of
Admiral Beardslee from Maui. He
is expected tomorrow afternoon on
the steamer w. G. Hall.
A late dispach says: "Rear
Admiral Beardslee, Commander-in-
chief Of the Pacific statiop, now in
Hawaiian waters with his flagship,
the Philadelphia, has been ordered |
to return to the United States if, in
his opinion, the presence of two
American warships is unneces-
sary."
A dispatch dated Vallejo, May
25th, says: "The Bennington
may carry orders for the Philadel-
phia to return, though this is hard |
ly probable, for the reason that |
flour and other ships stores are to
be taken by the Bennington to the |
Philadelphia.
another reason for the suppose
ton that the Bennington will not |
relieve the Philadelphia is that |
Lieutenant G.. NJ. Stoney, who has
been detached from the navy yard
as aid to the commandant, has
been ordered to proceed by the
steamer of June 18th to Honolulu
to report on board the Philadelphia
for duty.
"The Olympia is under orders to
leave on the 10th Of June for Homo
lulu, provided a court-martial of
two of her officers, which is to take
place, has been concluded by that
time. The detail for the court
is not yet known, but it is expected
that some of the members of the
board will come from the East, as
the court-martial will be an import
ant one. The judge advocate will
probably come from the depart
ment and bring the documents
along. When the Olympia goes as
is expected to Honolulu, Admiral
Beardslee will, if he receives or
ders to that effect, transfer his flag
on board and give the cruiser the
last official speed trial, which is
always required before final pay
ment is made.

The fairfield Progress of Washington
Territory gives an account of the work
which is now being done TO establish a
sugar factory at that place. This is
what it says; "The work of raising a
land subsidy for the beet sugar plant at
both Fairfield and Waverly is progress
ing very satisfactorily. The Fairfield
committee have secured a, 900 in cash
subscriptions in addition to the lands
promised. This money is to be paid on
condition the factory is established at
Fairfield, and will be used in that case
TO purchase land to 60 into the subsidy
acreage. A large public meeting was
held at Rockford last Saturday at which
there was much enthusiasm shewn bv
the farmers. Rockford has offered 10
give very generous help to Fairfield,
though some Of the farmers of that
vicinity, especially those living south |
west OF Rockford, will subscribe equally
to the Wayerly subsidy"

every body in Utah will be proud that

possesses the following qualities
Banker, merchant, editor, publisher,

Sugar Claims May be Paid.

Washington, d. c., Feb. ls.-The
action Of the Senate committee OF,
Appropriations with regard TO the pay
ment of sugar bounty claims for the
years lS9S-94 does not appear in the
report made upon the sundry civil bill,
for the reason that II was agreed in com
mitiee that il should be offered az a
matter independent Of the report ON the
bill by an individual member Of the
committee, II, after seeing Senator
Cullom it should appear that the ms
jority of the COMMITTEES was favorable to
the payment of these CLAIMS.
Mr.. Cullom was absent from the meet
ing today, and in his absence the vote Of
the committee was tie ON the promo
sition to pay the claims for 1898, which
had been earned when the tariff act went
into effect and one-half Of the bounty for
the crop Of 1904.
Mr.. Cullom afterwards cast his vote
for the allowance-of the claim. Tie
proposition for the payment of the
claims will be put into the civil bill a
an amendment, and it will DO moved by
some member of the committee favorable
u the payment OF claims AZ soon as ID
can be put in shape.
II N understood that the claims for
1898 aggregate $3.50, 900, and the estimate
ON the crop OF 1894 make it appear that

In no department of the govern
ment is there more room and great
need of reform than in the ex-
penses of the two houses of con-
gress. The expenses for the burial
of dead member is paid out of the
treasury, and costs the tax payer
from 81, 900 to 50, 900 for each flu
neral. During the previous year
over $4,000 Lave been expended
in this way. In addition to this ex-
pense, the senate usually votes a
years salary, SIS, 900, to the family
of the deceased. A short time ago,
800 was paid for a crayon por-
trait of Senator Voorhees, to hang
in one of the committee rooms.

On the 2Sth instant, death again
entered our town and removed
from our midst Miss Bessie Glad
ney, the youngest daughter of Mr..
S. NJ. Gladney, in the sixteenth
year of her age.
Of all the young people in town,
Bessie seemed to have the fairest
prospect for long life. With a
well formed physique, rosy cheeks
and a cheerful disposition, she al
ways bore a perfect picture of
health. But about three weeks be-
fore her death, disease, with a re-
lentless grasp, began its work and
with ever increasing severity, it
continued until relief was found in
the sleep which knows no waking.
Her sufferings were intense, oftimes
approximating spasmodic nature,
but she bore them with christian
fortitude. She was a consistent
member of the Presbyterian church
of this place, and she loved her
church very dearly, being always
found in her place at its services
unless providentially hindered.
But not the bloom of youth, the
glow of health, the esteem of null
titude of friends and the tender af-
lection of devoted father, sister,
aunt and uncle could stay deaths
chilly stream from overwhelming
her lovely form, What a solemn
warning to the young friends she
leaves behind!
Her body was carried to Medon

Startling Facts Every Stock
Gunner Should Read.

Southern Stock Farm, Nashville, Tenn
One of the most useless, as well
as one the greatest expenses to the
farmer is the building and maintain
ing of fences. Our Legislators have
actually passed laws compelling the
farmers TO build fences to hold out
stock, instead of passing laws to
build fences to hold them in. Is it
not the moral right and duty of ev-
cry one TO take care of what belongs
to:him'and see that il does not harm or
damage his neighbor? To pass a
stock law with respect to fences is
quite different from what many
farmers suppose.
The legal object of the fence
should not be, not to keep the stock
of ones neighbors from trespas-
sing upon his lands, but to keep his
own stock from trespassing upon
the lands of his neighbor. Every
one by law and justice should keep
his stock on his own land. With
such law, the fences would soon
disappear and the crops would take
care of themselves. To show the
enormous expense resulting from
operations of the present law and
the seriousness of this question to
the farmer, it is only necessary to
look little into the matter.
In 1890, there were 10, 27l, 622
acres of improved land in farms.
There were at that date 2l3, 100
farms, or about 80 acres of cleared
land OH All average to the farm.
There were in 1890, lO,8l8, 93s
acres of timber lands attached to
farms, and 5, 800, $40 acres of wild
lands. From a careful estimate, the
total cost of farm fences in our
state amounts to $7I, ,O3O. The
interest on the sum annually
at 6 per cent amounts to 81, 299,
364. The average life of an ordi-
nary farm fence will not exceed, if
it reaches ten years. The interest
in that time would about double it.
self.
We venture the assertion that the
amount invested in fences would
buy all the railroads in the State
and pay their running expenses for
ten years. At $4,000 per mile,
the railroads of the State are worth
$52, 100, 900. The amount invest
ed in fences would pay our state
debt and leave in the pockets of the
people the very comfortable sum of
S55, 954, O3O, more than enough to
purchase all the railroads in the
State, or all the live stock or all the
agricultural products that are annu-
ally grown in the State.
The interest on the fence debt
would paw the interest on the state
debt, and all state expenses for two
years, and leave half million dollars
in the hands of the people.
We will show further the serious
ness of this fence question, and the
possible lack of proper consIdera-
ton on the part of our law makers
forcing the people to build fences
to keep our stock out rather than
build fences to keep them in. The
value of the live stock on Jan. l,
1894 was as follows:
