THE LONGEST WORD.

The longest word in the English Ian
guage is not Smiles" although there
is mile between its first and last let
ters, (s-mile-s). One of the happiest
words, however. is health-real, rug
ged, robust, rousing, red-faced health.
There is neither boon nor blessing like
it. Yet thousands have lost it and it
stays lost This need not be. Myriads
have regained their health by using

President Melville, of the Snake VAL
ley Land and Water company, has re-
turned from the south, where he has
been for some two weeks past, devot-
ing most of the time to the interests
of the company at whose head he has
stood since it's organization. Stimuli
taneous with his arrival in the city
ton of the reservoir being put in by
the company al the head Of Snake
Valley, Willard county, for the purpose
of storing sufficient water to 1rrlgate
the entire acreage of that immediate
section. This was very gratifying
news to the members of the company
who are here, for it means that their
plans are being rapidly carried out,
and that by the opening of the irriga-
ton season the company's entire sys-
tenn will be in readiness for the deliv-
cry of water to the holders of the land
in the valley.
"You can say for us" said Presi-
dent Melville, that at last we are
actually ready for settlers. There is an
abundance of land in the valley which
has not already been sought out and
all of this will come under the canal
system of the company, upon which
work is being steadily pushed ahead.
Now that the dam and reservoir are
complete and the work on the main
canal system is we'll on its way the
full success of the enterprise is as
sured, and it is the intention of the
company to carry out all of the plans
originally laid out
Now that there is a majority of the
members of the company in the city
meetings for the purpose of passing
upon a number of questions relative
to the future work In all probability
several of the directors will go down
to Snake valley again within the next
week or ten days.

EXPORTING SOUTHERN WOODS.

South American Clip Going to Ant

BOSTON, Sept. 13.-The Boston Com
mercial Bulletin will say tomorrow:
The event of the week has been the
sale of over / 100000 pounds of South
American woods for export to Antwerp.
Foreign markets have advanced above
American, but as the foreigners will
not purchase American woods and
American mills are suffering acutely
from the unprecedented competition of
foreign goods our markets have not
yet responded. There was a sale of
Ohio this week at 20 to 81 cents, not an
advance, but full quotation. There
has been no advance in domestic woods.

Down at the works of the Utah SUI

being made in order to facilitate the
handling of the beets from the harvest
field. A new elevator is being put in,
it having just been received from the

put in the difficulty should be removed.

FEELING OF UxEAsIxEss.
Evident That Certain Insurance
General Managers Anticipate Il
Coming Change.

1t is very evident that there is feel
ing of decided uneasiness with certain
of the insurance general managers who
are making their headquarters on the
Pacific coast According to inside in
formation the gentlemen have we'll
grounded fear that on account of the
conditions which have been brought
about in insurance circles on the coast
since the first of the year, the COM
panies will make some decided
changes in their business affairs before
very long, and they may come under
the ak of displeasure. For some time
past some of the home offices have
been watching the situation pretty
closely, and it is said certain of them
have about arrived at the determina-
ton to do away with their general
agencies in San Francisco and handle
all of the business direct from either
the Chicago or the st. Paul end of the
line. Under the present conditions all
Of the daily reports from Utah, Mon
tana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon
are made direct to those cities now, or
else to the home offices. 1t has been
shown that this system of reporting
is as satisfactory as that of operating
the general business from the extreme
west, with the advantage Of more dis
patch in the way of mails, California
being removed two days from Utah.
1t is anticipated by the we'll posted
that some move in the direction indi-
Gated will soon be made by the COM
panies.
Ogden Becoming FESTIVE.
Now comes the report from the north
that some Of the agents of ogden are
becoming FESTIVE and rate cutting is
being engaged in on the side 1t seems
that but few of the underwriters of
the city on the north have signed up
the pledges of the state board of fire
underwriters and they, therefore, are
not bound by the same iron clad
agreements that are held over the
heads of the Salt Lake agents This
being the case, they are still at liberty
to do a little slashing, and according
|. to the latest reports they are. engage
ing in that pleasant pastime. There is
not much Ogden business that has not
already been taken care of, so that the
incipient war is not very terrifying.
Settled the Loss.
Manager Whitney, of Heber ]. Grant
& Co., has just settled the Hunsack-
er loss at Honeyville, Box Elder coun-
ty. 1t was total, and the Hartford and
the Phoenix of Brooklyn divided $1,000
between them. This loss was caused
by the burning of the store of Lorenzo
HunSacker.
