AT Lehi and American Fork the same
impression seems to prevail, as the
sheep men of those localities are now
storing their wool for an advance in
quotations.
Payne & Lyme, the State street wool
buyers. state that on account of the
backwardness of the season the shear
ing time has been somewhat retarded.
They have not been out on the road as
yet, but expect to leave for the rural
districts within a short time now.
When asked regarding prices, Messrs
Payne & Lyme stated that they ranged
from six to eight cents, which figures
would probably rule during the season.
As general thing the sales will be out.

advances on commission is not meeting

Salt Lal<ers Negotiating For Further
Time in Which to Pay.

Time in Which to Pay.
Boise observation-disclosures Jennings
and Morris, the Salt Lake gentlemen
who are here negotiating with John
Lemp and other Boise business men
over the Star mine on Wood river,
spent most of yesterday closeted with
the local people and their representa-
tive, George H. Stewart.
The Salt Lake gentlemen and eight
others purchased the Star for SIPS, OO0
There were two defaults in the pay
ments, but new agreements were en-
tered into each time, and money was
paid from time to time until there now
remains but $4,000 to be paid. The
Boiseites from whom the mine was
purchased hold 2 mortgage on the
property for this amount, which will
be due shortly, and the buyers are de-
slrous of having the time of payment
extended
About the only hitch is over the pay
ment of I. E. StarTh, who should pay
his portion of the balance, $4,000. But
Mr.. Starrh is financially distressed and
unable to liquidate, and according to
an arrangement previously made it is
insisted that the other parties must as
sumo his payment.

An obstacle Easily surmounted.

There are, no doubt, insurmountable
obstacles. But that barrier to the en-
joyment of health, chronic constipation,
is not among them. And this for the
reason that there is a thorough,
prompt and non-griping medicinal
agent, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
adapted to it's relief, as well as to the
removal of those bilious and dyspeptic
symptoms which accompany it, Vio-
lent purgatives, whether mineral or
vegetable, weaken the bowels and dis
order the stomach. The Bitters, on the
contrary, strengthens and regulates
them both. Moreover, it tranquillizes
the nervous system, and is a cure for
and medicinal safeguard against kid
ney and malarial complaints. It is a
most genial and effective tonic,
counteracts the infirmities of age and
promotes convalescence. Sleep and ap-
petite are both benefited by it's use.
1t is q standard remedy endorsed by
the entire medical fraternity.

IN THE DEEP CREEK REGION.
Renewed Activity in Mining Circles
in This Rich Country.


A great deal of interest Just now is
eentered in the Deep Creek. region, and
hardly day passes but what num-
/ Der of outfits are started out in this
direction with the intention of locating
or developing claims in the various
mining districts embraced in this coun-
try, concerning which so much mas
| been said and written during the pa st
ten years.
Among Salt Lakers who are helvily
interested in the Deep Creek Mining
region might be mentioned NJ. r.
Evans, who, through thick and thin.
has always maintained that the min
eral wealth of this country would yet
prove TO be the salvation of Salt Lake
City. He has numerous valuable prop
critics in Clifton district among them
icing the Chester and Accident, on
Dutch mountain, and yesterday he sent
out word to his men to resume work
On these claims, from either OF which
he could begin regular ore extraction
with favorable transportation facili-
ties; and Mr.. Evans says that with
railroad through the Deep Creek coun-
try every district along its route would
send steady stream of wealth into
this city.
Dan Gurnsey and H. Kincaid have
also taken considerable interest in the
Dugway and Drum Mountain districts
A month ago they sent some men into
this country, and before returning
they made several locations, including
q gold proposition, showing 81 on the
surface. This property, it is believed,
can be transformed into a producer
with the expenditure of only few
hundred dollars, and it is also stated
that the ore will be rich enough to
ship to this city without any addi-
tional railroad facilities. Even as it is,
S12 ore would pay, as it could be laid
down in Salt Lake for $3.50 per ton.
Within few days Messrs. Gurnsey
and Kincaid, together with several Col
orado men, will send another party of
prospectors into the Deep Greek coun-
try, and it is the intention to thor |
oughly investigate the mineral resour-
ces Of this region.

STATE WARRANTS

STATE WARRANTS.
State warrants continue to be a drug
| on the market. They were quoted yes
terday at SO cents and no one wanted
any very badly at that price.
| Until the board of loan commission
| ers shall have ordered an issue of state
bonds and refunded the outstanding
territorial warrants, state paper will
doubtless continue to sell very cheap.
The bankers do not seem to care for
them at all.
There is a feeling, too, that per
cent bonds will not sell at par, unless
perchance some investment company
avoids paying brokerage and Gets hold
of them direct. A leading banker said
yesterday that he did not see how 4
per cents could sell at par as provided
by law; that he did not presume the
state of New York could sell bond
of that character al this time. How
ever, the state officers interested in
the future financial welfare of the COM
monwealth do not seem to be worried
at ALL
Three or four informal propositions
have already been received md inqUi-
res concerning the issue are even now
quite frequent.
There seems, Notwithstanding re-
reated statements, to be soma doubt as
t. the purpose for which this bond is
sue is to be made. X ~ for the pur-
pose of funding the outstanding in
debtedness and with the old territorial
paper retired the moneys received can
be applied to paying off state paper.
Che official remarked yesterday that
state warrants would be good buy
at from 80 to 3d. as from general indi-
cations it would not be more than so
days, in his opinion, ere the work Of
redemption would be we'll under way
The governor has not yet approved
the form of bond to be used, which
work was entrusted to him.
