An important communication was re-
eeived by Governor West yesterday. 1t
was a call for a western states con-
ference. sent out by Governor Morrill,
of Kansas, by request of Governor Gull
berson, of Texas.
The conference is called to work IN
the interests of a harbor on the Gulf
of Mexico and to arrange for an inter
American exposition to be held at Gal
weston. It is thought that if the pro-
duets of the west can be brought to-
gether there the commercial import
ance of a harbor on the gulf will be
apparent to all.
The conference will be held at 10
peka. Kan, on Oct. 1, and is expected
to be a very influential gathering. An
interstate deep harbOr committee is al
ready extant, and members of this are
also made delegates.
The letter requests the appointment
by Governor West of twelve delegates,
two of whom are to be United States
senators. and four congressional rept
resentatives. The selection of dele
gates was made by the governor yes
terday and was in every way u fellcl-
tious one. They are: Joseph L. Raw
Inns. Moses Thatcher, Frank j. can

CITY WATER TAXES.
ROLLS COMPLETED AND NOTICES
ARE BEING MAILED.
1t is Expected That the Cash Reeve
nue. VIII he $4,000 This Year
City VIII Need All the Cash TAX
en- in-PrOspects For Jail Are
Not Very Flattering.

The assessment figures on the water
users on both sides of Main street are
now complete and in the hands of the
city treasurer who is engaged in send
ing out the notices for collection. That
there will be a good cash revenue from
water this coming year goes without
saying The amount of tax due from
those who live on the east side is $45,-
$3.50, while the west siders are taxed
with $43, 1920, total of $S9,141.7O. In
asmuch as water scrip is a scarce
article these days it would appear that
most of this will be paid in cash.
Water scrip is. now selling at 50 cents,
the highest point reached in many
years and is becoming more and more
difficult to obtain as days go by. 1t
seems that all outstanding scrip is
held by those who want to keep it, and
spectators find it very hard to get
any.
The result will doubtless be that $75,-
900 will be paid for water this year in
cash. This will materially aid the city
treasury in meeting the expenses this
year.
County collections are coming in
quite rapidly these days, when the
been mailed, is considered. 1t is ex-
pected that the collector viii be enabled
to turn in part of the city revenue
quite early. 1t will be necessary to
have this done. for if the sewer con-
| tractors happen to have their claim al
lowed for the short measurements a
bill for which was filed, as exclusively
mentioned in The Herald a few days
ago, and the amount due them on re-
tanned percentage is paid, the treasury
will be more than bankrupt.
There is only 900 on hand now and
the sewer men have a claim against
100000 of city funds. In addition to
this is all the other expenses which
amounts to several thousand each
month, SO it will be seen that the
treasury is going to be short
There will be no Jail erected this
year; that fact is patent to all. Taken
as whole the city is going to be seri-
ously cramped for funds ere long and
if extensive improvements are made
next year in the water works depart
ment, some means will have to be de-
Yised to meet the expenses.

PROSECUTORS AND SHEEP.
Mustons Not in Favor With the
Hardy Miner.

1Luttons Not in Favor With the
Hardy Miner.
Thomas and James Popham, who
started out on a prospecting trip about
two months ago, returned to Ketchum
last Sunday. They went from here
direct to Boise Basin, doing their first
prospecting on the head of Elk creek
in the Summit Flat country. From
there they travelled southeasterly to
Crooked river, thence to Bear river,
then to South Boise and from there to
the head of Smoky. Their prospecting
was impeded to some extent by the
scarcity of feed for their horses, the
grass having all been eaten off or des-
troyed by the sheep that ore being
driven through the country. They en-
countered the first band oa Summit
Flat, twenty miles from Idaho City,
and from there on to the head of
Smoky they had been preceded by
numerous bands of these pestiferous,
grass-destroying, low-tariffed bleaters.
The sheep belong to Utah and Boise
valley parties, and the Pophams esti-
mate the number ranging in the noun
tains and valleys between Summit Flat
and the head of Smoky to be about
1000 In many instances where the
country looked inviting to the pros
pectors eye the idea had to be aban-
doned for want Of feed for their ami
mails. The Messrs. Popham brought
in samples OF ore from several lodges
which they discovered and contem-
plate developing the property next
spring.

Joe, by the way, says the ticket is all
right. Lilliburn Palmer thinks it will
go through. Several other people are of
the same opinion. Among them IS
Barlow Ferguson, leading young Re
publican He is enthusiastic over the
matter; thinks the party could not
have made a better selection. E. D. R.
THOMPSON is of the same opinion, while
w. /. Snyder, of Park City, says it will
sweep Summit county from Coalviile
to the switch on the Utah Central.
One leading Republican, who runs a
bank in this city, looked askance at

thought of the ticket. Il do not care to
have it mentioned" he replied, but you
