Morgan Matters.

MORGAN, Sept 13.-As the days
grow colder, politics wax warmer.
/ County conventions for the free silver
Republicans and the Democrats have
been called, the date for each being
the same, viz: Wednesday, September
16. Both will be held in the court house
at Morgan city, the latter at 10 o'clock
am. and the former at 2 pm. Nomina-
tons for the entire ticket will be made
by each party, only the silver Republic
cans will favor Bryan electors. No
steps have been taken to call a Nc
Kinley Republican convention, as there
are not enough gold partisans in the
county to form one committee.
A silver meeting was called for last
Wednesday evening for the purpose Of
amalgamating all parties on one silver
ticket, but the effort was not suc=
cess. The parties prefer to vote their
own legislative and local tickets, al
though there is no doubt that the vote
for Bryan for president viii be over
whelmingly in the majority in this
county.

Morgan House about two weeks ago

fellow hand and foot all the time. on
Friday, Obray was attacked by a hem
orrhage of the lungs, from which he
never recovered, and succumbed TO the
grim monster at $50 am. on that date.
1t was found that he had relatives at
Spanish Fork, and his remains were
shipped thither last night

the touring special ambassador arriv-
ed at Vancouver by special train in his
private car, the Che-Foo The whole
city was on the qui vive to do him
honor, and long before the hour set for
his arrival crowds lined the approach
to the depot and wharf, and masses of
people crowded all the emdnences
around the harbor.
The Chinese residents had erected a
very handsome arch on the bridge
leading TO the wharf, and a
LONG LINE OF CHINAMEN
stood in line waiting to bow to the
great vceroy. The Chinese band that
sounded like bagpipes, played Chinese
music as Earl Ii alighted from the
train. A carriage drawn by four white
horses and draDed with union lacks
waited to convey him the short distance
from the train TO the steamer. When
the procession started the coach was

to the proceedings. All the ships in the
harbor were gaily decorated with rain

roofs around displayed kodak fiends

Many prominent citizens had cards of
admission to the steamer, and crowded
her decks to catch a glimpse of the earl
as he was carried. aboard. For this one
day the whole usual social order was
subverted, and Cinnamon everywhere
took precedence over their white breth-

Provo Points.

PROVO, Sept. 12.-The Rio Grande
Western Railway company has COM
menced suit in the Fourth district
court against the Telluride Power
Transmission company, L. L. Mum
and L. Holbrook to obtain judgment
and quiet PLAINTIFF s title as against
adverse claims of the defendants. The
suit involves about sixteen acres of
land, 200 feet wide and 1900 feet long
situated in Provo canyon. The COM
plant sets forth that on or about
March /, 1885, the plaintiff commenced
survey and location of a line of rail-
road from connection with it's main
line in the city of Provo to the mouth
of Provo canyon, thence up Provo
canyon for a distance of forty miles
from Provo, and that the plaintiffs
have made map of the surveyed and
located line and in accordance there
with they have commenced and are
prosecuting the construction of their
railroad on said line. On March g.
1885, by virtue of a compliance with
the act of congress respecting the
rights Of way for railroads, the plain
tiff became the owner of the right of
way described. The plaintiff further
alleges that the defendants wrongfully
make, set up and assert an adverse
claim to said lands, and have inter-
rupted the plaintiff in pursuing the
work of grading, and by threats OF
force have stopped the plaintiffs worH
at places thereon and deny the right of
plaintiff to the use of said lands for
railway purposes. There are two of
these suits filed. The other case has
the same parties plaintiff and same
parties defendants with w. w. Fergu-
son added. The suits are the out
growth of a dispute between the rail-
way people and the people who are
constructing a power plant at the
mouth of Provo canyon, and will be
stubbornly contested by both parties
and will be watched with interest
