Following is the report of President
Dolly of the board Of education. 1t
is an important document and will be
read with great interest by all:
To the Honorable Board of Educa-
ton, Salt Lake City, Utah:
Gentlemen-I take pleasure in sub
hitting to you the following report of
the general condition of the public
schools, together with such recommen-
dations as have suggested themselves
to my mind during my connection
with the board, and which, though but
expressions of individual opinion, L
trust may receive your consideration
inasmuch as they are the result OF
careful study and investigation.
[ desire to congratulate the mem
bers OF the board upon their pains
taking. efficient and faithful service.
You have given unstinted time and
attention to the performance OF du-
ties both onerous and complex, which
has resulted in a most successful and
economical administration OF the sew
eral departments of our public schools.
To verify this statement l have but
to refer you to the exhaustive and
able report of our superintendent Of
schools. which 1 especially commend
for your consideration.
Attendance.
The increased efficiency and attend
ance shows that we are marching
steadily onward in educational mat
tiers.
The total enumeration of school pop
Aforementioned and attendance

HAVE INVADED CALIFORNIA.
Omaha Commission Houses Can
Place Coast Cattle to Good Adj
vantage.

shipment of sixteen car loads of
prime cattle was received at the Union
Stock yards yesterday morning and
count of the fact that the conslgn-
ment was from within three miles of
the Pacific ocean and some distance
south of the city of San Francisco, in
other words the San Luis ObiSpo. All
of the cattle were in splendid condi-
ton and the average weight will beat
1900 pounds. The steers were too large
for the California markets for the rea-
son that the people nearly all live in
the restaurants and they do not de-
sire large or broken cuts. of meat.
This is; the reason it is possible for the
representatives of eastern houses to
invade the coast districts and ship
therefrom cattle of heavy weight in
competition with middle western and
southern stuff.
This shipment is in charge of Cap
tain Shelly of the firm of Blanchard,
Shelly & Rogers, and the cattle are
going to Omaha for marketing. 1t is
estimated that they will bring good
figures and should such be the case
other consignments are to follow from
California The captain accompanied

as far east as Denver on the way to
market He reports that the Califor-
MIA ranges are dry, but not parched,
and the cattle are in good condition
throughout the state. This morning
the consignment will continue east.
Moving the Sheep.
Well posted sheepmen declare that
the slaughter of lambs and Wethers
this year will be in the ueighborhood
of 40 per cent, this estimate being
based upon the movements made and
those in contemplation. There has al
ready been considerable shipment
from this territory this season and
those movements yet to come will
carry away a large number of sheep.
This is the case with every other
state and territory where sheep grow
ing is anything of an industry, and
these heavy consignments to the sew
eral markets is having the effect of
knocking down prices very materi-
ally
J. B. Kerr left for the north last
evening for the purpose Of making a
shipment of lambs from Bellevue,
Idaho, on Sunday. He will move 5000
head of the baby mutton, the first
shipment TO go onto the market this
season. On Saturday Mir. Kerrs agents
will move a train load of wethers from
Park City.

Meeting Was Adjourned.

Contrary to expectations, there
was no meeting of the Snake Valley
Land and Water company held in this
city yesterday, an adjournment being
taken for some days in order that
Director Searles might have an oppor-
tunity of being present. 1t is very evil
dent that there will be some changes
in the affairs of the company after the
coming meeting. Those directors who
are in the city already were in con-
sultation yesterday for several hours
preparing for the business which will
be presented for transaction.

Who for Governor :?

A correspondent of the Easton Lelger,
writing from Baltimore ON Maryland politics.
says
''The fight in the city between Hayes and
Rayner is interesting TO Democrats all over
the state Neither of them will carry the
whole city. nor do ! believe either of them
will receive the nomination for Governor. $
: Gov Brown could defeat both HAYES and
Rayner in the whole city would he make the
effort vigorously.
This is an opinion that one can hear all over
Baltimore Gov Brown Is a very strong man
with the people of that city. His administra-
ton has been prudent, careful and safe; his
appointments excellent. aud there is no doubt
that he could carry Baltimore with whoop
against any candidate now in the field or that
could be puf up. Aud he is strong in the
counties also. moi 50 strong, perhaps, as he
was four wears ago. but were he To enter the
canvass he would no doubt easily secure the
nomination.
The issue of Gormanism has been unwisely
injected into the campaign by designing spu-
rious Democratic journals and been taken mp
by persons who are governed by passion rather
than reason. It looks like the Issue will be
kept to the 'front.' and lift is, neither Cor
man nor anti German ticket can win. This
is true without a doubt aud the fact may as
well be looked sguarely in the face. Who,
then. would make as strong a candidate as
Gov. Brown? Who else would command the
vote Of both sides as wen as the Governor
He /, neither German mau nor anti-Gorman
mau. He Is no man man. He has an in
