CHICAGO AND ST. LOUIS HAVE A
TRADE WAR.

that as a result Of a trade war between
Chicago and st. Louis, wholesale coun-
try merchants may ride from city to
city in parlor cars and enjoy a per-
petual excursion during the dul sea-

of fighting the methods adop%

As the result Of the successful termi-
nation Of negotiations which have been
on for some time past, the water prob
lem of the Camp Floyd district is at
last to be solved, and solved in a man
ner which will bring great 10Y 20 the
owners of dry claims. Without any
unnecessary delay the waters of Ophir
creek are to be conveyed to the district
and distributed at the pleasure of the
mine owners. Contracts. for the work
were signed up yesterday and active
operations are to commence just AZ
soon as the snow leaves the ground
the past for the season. It is estimated
that the enterprise will mean the inn
mediate investment of something like
$50, 600 and there will be no lack Of
capital, for Colonel Wall has assocf-
ated with him some of the best people
OF the territory.
For over year now Colonel Wall,
who owns the greater portion of Ophir
creek, has been negotiating for the
necessary means with which to deliver
the clear mountain water to the mine
owners of the Camp Floyd district, bu>
until yesterday afternoon nothing was
certain Then the colonel and his as
I sociates got together and the agree
merts were drawn UP. Not only does
/ the project mean the delivery of the
water to the district but also in the
neighborhood of 800 electrical horse
power, the latter to be generated by
/ the water fall in Ophir canyon, which
! Is to be harnessed by means of head
/ pipe line GONE $4,000 feet In length
/ The power plant and dumping station
are to be located in the canyon and the
great pump which will be necessary
in the raising Of the water 1000 feet
to the summit Of the divide will be
operated by electricity, generated by
means of Pelton wheels. Two of theso
wheels will be placed at the foot Of o
penstock, down which the waters of
Ophir creek will fall from 500 foot
head. The water system will be over
eight miles in length, not including
laterals. Colonel Wall owns $50 miners
inches of the flow Of the stream and
that amount can be delivered to the
gold district If the demand for water
Is heavy enough.
Those who are posted are of the
opinion that the water system and the
electric power and lighting plant will
prove nearly as valuable as my Of the
gold properties in the district.

Z. B. LEWIS.

Theodore Belden Lewis was born in
the city Of st. Louis. Mo-. on the 18th
day Of November, 1843. Both of his
parents died when he was quite young,
leaving him in the care OF his mater
nal grandmother until he was u years
of G1ge. when he was placed in the
charge of his uncle. John T. Lewis.
During his residence with his grand
mother, ne attended the very best pri-
Vate schools, and the public schools of
st. Louis. After his uncle assumed
the guardianship of him, he was
placed in some of The best academies
of the state-one at FairyieW, Saline
county, and another at Glasgow, How
ard county, and finally at Central col
lege, at Fayette, Howard county The
war came on Just in time TO prevent
his graduation. At the close of the
war, in the spring Of 1S65. he started
west and arrived in Utah IN August in
the same year; and has remained in
Utah the entire time since, with the
exception of two years. He has been
engaged in educational work continu-
ouSly. In addition to teaching, he
served as county superintendent of

Another decision Of great Importance
in the mining world has just been
rendered by the United States court Of

gone up from Judge Hallett's court ut

The opinion of the court reyerses the
