Will freeze them out of Idaho and Utah

the rate made to Salt Lake is also made
to thirty seven other towns in Utah, and
that merchants there can purchase direct

Idaho points on dry goods the rate is
$2.25 and to Salt Lake $2.15. This shuts
them out of Idaho to a great extent
The jobberS have called the company
attention to this, and they are forming an
organization and protesting against the

A BOLD sWTNDLER.

Last Wednesday evening an old,
gray haired man of respectable ap-
pearance took lodgings at the Kays-
vile hotel. He represented himself to
the Iandlady, Mrs. Mansell, as a terri
torial officer who was taking a school
census, and said he would be here two
weeks or Whereabouts enumerating the
youthful population of this immediate
vicinity. Thursday morning he pre-
sented a check for $15 in payment for
q weeks board, with a request that
Mrs. ManseH give him the balance in
coin of the realm. The lady had her
wits about her, however, and refused
payment until she ascerta ined s<f the
check was all right 1t was Drawn on
the First National Bank of Ogden by
William F. Smith, in his own favor,
and communication with the Ogden
bank developed the fact that the wiley
enumeration had no funds on deposit
with them. Neither were they honored
with the acquaintance of any such
man.
Smith vamoosed. He didn't even
wait TO learn what the Ogden people
said. He went south, and is pre-
sumably still going. At least he has
not been heard of since. The hotel
people have made another entry in
their experience column for the amount
Of the bill, and there the matter rests.
