Tho Reeervoir a. Success.

There has been much talk and spec
ulation in the past by the irrigators of
Lehi garding whether the reservoir
built by the Lehi Irrigation company
on the bench just north of town would
prove a success. Many have pro
nounced ii TO be failure and that it
would never hold water. To all such
we want to say that if they will now
take the trouble to visit the reservoir
we believe they will cheerfully change
their minds and speak in high praise
of the work that has been done, and
also feel delighted at the large body
of water which is now confined within
the banks of about five acres of land.
There is from five to eight feet of wa
ter now in the reservoir and a small
stream running in and nearly half as
much running out. which indicates
that the sinkage is not more than one
half, which is most encouraging. see
ing this is the first year. The water,
as is flows in. brings with IT a sedi-
ment which will in the course of time
cover the bottom with coat Of clay
and other mixtures that 1T will be i'm
POSSIBLE for the water to filter
through. There is one thing which is
very marked. the water now stands
several feet above the surrounding
land, yet one cannot see the least bit
of seepage coming through the banks
The body of water which now is con-
tanned would. if kent there until need
ed. make a marked difference 20 the
quantity of water needed. The direct
ors are to be CONGRATULATED on the
work they have had done and on the
success of The reservoir thus far

EXPLODED.

The big blast in the canyon was ex-
ploded yesterday about II o'clock. Salt
Lake still stands and Ogden did not
know that it had exploded until those
going up there to see it returned. As
constantly predicted by those familiar
with the work. there was no loud re-
port, no broken plate glass, but simply
a jar, an upheaval and a topping over
of the great Cliff. Several smaller
blasts were fired and these, it is said,
did better execution. proportionately,
than did the big one, as part of the
powder in the large one did not ex-
plode as soon as it should have done.
This was due to the breaking of a wire
from the battery by debris from a per
ton of the shot which exploded first.
The electric battery was too weakly
charged to explode all at one stroke.
However, a lot of rock is smashed, and
the most of the disappointment is prob
ably amolng the spectators, who were
looking for a grand spectacular dis
play, accompanied by crash of matter
and a wreck of plate glass.

A New Kind oil Ront.

]. P. Petersen in his little workshop
in Mormontown has planned and
fashioned many useful articles that are
now doing service in the houses of his
neighbors. The little shop is literally
filed with all sorts of machinery, the
like of which can be found nowhere
else on earth. With this self-invented
and self-made equipment Mr.. Petersen
employs most of his time in making
useful articles of peculiar and unique
design, both of wood and metal
For the last few weeks he has devot-
ed hours to the building of boat that
he expects to launch upon Green river
shortly. the boats, for there are really
two of them, are u feet long and
connected at the top by decking at
each end, the center being left open
for the insertion of a paddle wheel
with which il is proposed to propel
the boat. The wheel is operated by cog
wheels and cranks and can be worked
at either side by one or two men, A
test was recently made in the swift
high water and the boat was voted a
success. but was lifted ashore for i'm
provements that suggested themselves
to the builder.-Green River Star.

THE SACRED CONCERT.

The Salt Lake tabernacle choir has
a rival. The concert by the tabernacle
choir was repeated last night as a
sacred concert in the Grand opera
house, several changes in the pro
gramme having been made so as to
make it in every respect suitable for
a Sunday night concert. Ward SER
vices were dispensed with in all the
meeting houses. The concert was a
success-a greater success even than
its predecessor on Memorial Day The
fact that seats could be reserved was
a great Improvement over the former
custom and dispensed with the crush
to some extent, but still the largest
crowd that has been seen at the Grand
for many a day was there. Many of
the numbers were encored and some
OF the soIoists were called for several
times. Squire Coop and Hagbert An
derson. who are respectively director
and business manager for the choir,
are to be congratulated

Rebind the Times.

The Provo Enquirer is making
vague threats against every man. in
Utah who refuses to acknowledge its
divinity Its writer-in-ctief evidently
belongs to the class described by Ben
E. Rich in the Silver Hammer OF last
week. Ben says:
A cruel tragedy was once enacted in
southern Utah, in which few corrupt
renegade Mormons with a band of
bloodfhirsty Indians murdered COM
pany of immigrants at Mountain Mead
ows; and on account of the part taken
in that bloody murder by such sinful
wretcheS as John D. Lee who happened
to claim membership in the Mormon
church, but who had violated every
vow of sanctity, as we'll as trampled
under foot every law Of God found
within the church, the anti-Mormon
press papers throughout America for
years insisted that this massacre laid
at the door of the Mormon church.
We hope no one will blame the Nor
mon church for the John D. Lee dis
position of the fanatic who directs the
policy of the Provo Enquirer.
His covert threats against the nom
Mormon taxpayers, house-hrddeTs and
business men of Utah come with UNI
seemly grace from one whose conduct
IL
the people, the church or the state.
Whatever The Journal has said in
criticism of the Enquirer has been di-
rected against the newspaper and not
against its editor, manager or pro
prietor.' Personally we have nothing
against Mr.. Glove, the editor. whom
we esteem as a personal friend.
But the narrow contracted policy, the
bigoted disposition and the un-Ameri-
can tone of the Enquirer we regard
as inimical to free thought and free
Institutions. For that reason we have
criticised II and purpose to do SO, al
though the blood-thirsty Enquirer may
threaten US with all the vengeance of
a full fiedged destroyer.
The people of Utah are not the blind
fanatics the Enquirer would lead one
to consider them. They are entirely too
broad for it to pose as the criterion
of their tolerance, charity and under
standing. They have far outstripped
our Provo contemporary in the social
evolution which has been taking place.
The Enquirer is talking in its Rip
Van Wrinkle sleep, muttering about dis
tinctions that have been swept aside
by the hand of progress, dreaming
of dangers that no longer exist, riding
the nightmare of hatred pursued by
the ghosts of a delirious dread.
When the Enquirer awakenS. If it
ever happens To, the matted hair of
superstition will hang over its jaun-
diced eyes: the gray beard of ignor-
ance will cover its ranking breast; it
will pick up the rusty fintlocks of
fana ticism, whistle to the dead dog of
obedience and wander back to the pale
of enlightenment with the shout
Long live the king; down with Ameri-
can independence"
And, as the people look upon the
superannuated specimen of bygone
days, some viii laugh and some will
jest, while others tap their foreheads
and silently walk away.-Logan Jour

that there is but one issue in the COM
ing campaign. There is distinct I'M
Outstanding between the silver Repub-
leans and the silver Democrats of the
senate as to the course that shall be
pursued by the former at the st. Louis
convention
One of the most prominent and ac-
tive silver Republicans of the senate
said on the 5th:
I'VE do not intend that the st. Louis
convention shall straddle the silver
question if our votes can prevent it
We estimate that we shall have at
least ten members of the committee on
resolutions. We will offer a resolution
for free coinage at the ratio OF l6 to !.
Of course, that will be rejected. Then
the faction favoring a compromise, or
a straddle will come in with its pro-
position. The eastern states will sub
nit their gold standard plank
When our free coinage plank shall
have been rejected we will throw our
votes to the gold men for the purpose
of absolutely committing the Republi-
can party to the geld standard. Then
we will go into the convention and pro-
test against both the gold and the
StraOQle PLATFORM OIle OF the CtiiSi
will be adopted, for a blind man can
see that the l6 to ! ratio will have no
chance.
After the adoption of either the gold
or the 'straddle' plank, we will with
draw from the convention and wait to
see what the Democratic convention at
Chicago will do. If it declares for free
coinage, as we believe it will, why then
we will join with the Democrats and
make the fight for the supremacy of

Ephraim JingIes.

EPHRAIM, Utah. June ia dis
tressing accident occurred here last
night.
Ranwell Jansen, 3. boy about ten
years of age, jumped on the Rio
Grande Western train as it was leav-
ing the depot and after riding q short
distance attempted to get off and fell
with his arm under the wheel, cut
ting his hand off. The boy is the son
of a poor widow.
In spite of all the train men can do,
there is a lot of boys who collect
at the station every night and jump
on the train as it pulls out. It is to
be hoped that this will teach some of
them a lesson.
Ephraim has been infested with
tramps for the last two weeks Three
of them attempted to run the town
yesterday and were promptly gathered
in but not until they had insuited and
scared several ladies half to death. The
city should start a. chain gang and
make these hobos work out their fines
on the streets instead of boarding them
in the Jail at the expense of the city
