Smith, of course. is entitled to believe
1t is the will of God that it should be
presented to the people at this time. -
That is simply an individual opinion, of
no greater weight than the Individual
opinion of any other man. This announce
ment, in my judgment, ought to settle
the controversy, because anything less
than the word of God, or a revelation, ="
is not binding upon the consciences of
the people, nor binding upon their con-

the people to oppose the document, and
that without ostracism or criticism for
doing so. People have just as much right
to believe that the manifesto is not the

great a right to oppose as he has to pro-
mote it's adoption. The people everywhere
throughout the state should take a note
of that, and exercise their God-given
privilege of using their own Judgment,
because if they allow their judgment to
be used by the dictation of others, they
abrogate the most important principle

his free agency, and without that man

Arthur L. Woodruff has begun an ac-
ton for divorce from Matte A. Wood
ruff. alleging that the marriage took
place in the year 1887; that the plain
tiff has always provided for his wife,
and been unto her good and dutiful
husband, but Mrs. Woodruff, it is al
legged, has neglected her duties as
wife. and has for two or three years
last past been addicted to habitual
drunkenness, to such an extent that
it is impossible for the plaintiff to live
with her; that she would leave home
on nights and go up town and get
beastly drunk, and do many other sile
things, which it was impossible for
plaintiff to bear; that on account of her
habitual drunkenness, she became un-
bearable in her temper, and would Of
ten treat the plaintiff with extreme
cruelty, causing him great mental dis
tress. Wherefore, plaintiff prays judg-
ment that the bonds of matrimony be-
tween the plaintiff and defendant be
dissolved.

Kenneth r. Smoot yesterday insti-
tuted proceedings in the Third district
court to foreclose a 100000 mortgage
on the property OF the Frisco CONSOLE
dated Mining company at Bingham.
The complaint states that February l,
1884, the Frisco company delivered TO
the, True Fissure Mining company its
first mortgage debenture. bonds agre-
eating 100000 that to secure the pay
ment of said bonds the Frisco company
delivered to Kemper <. Knapp, as trus-
tee, the following property: The quartz
mining claim known as the Frisco mine,
the Pioneer placer claim, the True Fis-
sure mill site and water right. one-half
interest in the Cox lode, all located in
the West Mountain mining district.
1t is further alleged that none of the
coupons upon said bonds have been
paid; that the Frisco Consolidated com
pany is insoivent; wherefore it is prayed
that the mortgage be foreclosed and
that the property be sold by the sher-
if according to law.
The sum of $500 is asked for as attor-
ney's fees and 5000 for the services of
the plaintiff as trustee in the suit.

GEYsER LITIGATION.
An Action Brought to Recover Ten
Thousand Dollars.

An Action Brought to Recover Ten
Thousand Dollars.
Matt T. Osborn and the Geyser Min
ing company were made defendants in
suit filed in the district court yes
terday by Gustavus A. Duncan. The.
action is brought to recover $4,000, the
amount alleged to have been paid by
plaintiff upon the purchase price of
the Geyser, patented, the West Geyser,
the South Geyser. the North Geyser,
the Florence No. 5 and the Front No.
8 mining claims.
The complaint sets forth that the
plaintiff entered into a contract with
Osborn for the purchase of the claims
above mentioned, the price being 49,,
coo. The purchase was made on jan
uary T. 1898, and three payments,
amounting in all to 900, have been
made. The balance, $65, 900. was to have
been paid October 1, 1888, but prior to
that time Robert L. Scannell COM
menced action against Osborn for the
right to the possession of the claims
whereby the defendant was unable to
convey a clear title to the plaintiff, the
Seannell suit being still pending in the
courts. Being aware of this, the COM
plant further states that the defend
ant being aware of the fact that he
could not convey the claims upon the
receipt CT the balance of the purchase
price on October 1, 1898, did on All
gust 1, the same i. year, extend
the time for the payment of
this balance from October 1, 1898, to AN
uary l, 1894 Notwithstanding this
agreement Osborn went ahead and
conveyed the claims in question to the
Geyser Mining company, all of which
was in violation of previous agreements
with plaintiff

ties. and it required persistent effort on
their part to raise sufficient funds for
the development of the property When
assessed, some of the stock went for a
song, and it was some time before it
obtained a marketable value. When
ore was struck, however, this stock
became a favorite, and its rise in value
since that time has been almost plle-
nomenal.
The writer well remembers, six years
ago, when Observation-Disclosures shares
were quoted at $3.50 each, and even
this was then considered a fancy price
for II. But it did not long remain at
this figure, and its advance has been
regular, notwiths standing the degrade
ton Of silver, and the hard times that
followed in the wake Of this dastardly
act, until today it is held at the $50
mark, and an option has been secured
on the capital stock of the company at
500 share, or SO, 600, 600.
During the past six years the Cen
tennial-Eureka has paid S1,710,0OO in
dividends, besides building a mammoth
hoist, equipped with the finest machin-
cry to be found in any country. 1t has
thoroughly and scientifically developed
its property, and today the workings of
this mine show more ore exposed, and
blocked out, and 1T is claimed that in
out of 1T, and it is claimed that in
point of its wealth of high-grade min
eral still untouched, this bonanza is
practically virgin proposition.
In its management, the Centennial
Eureka occupies a high position in min
ing circles, and Utonians can well point
widh pride to the gentlemen who have
successfully carried on this enterprise,
and whose ability, integrity and sin
gleness of purpose, have never been
questioned.
The Centennial-Eureka, and its sue
cess should serve as an incentive to
men who desire to follow mining as the
road to wealth, and they may well
emulate the example set by this com
pSny.
