Knocked Out.

The Poll tax law has been declar-
ed unconstitutional by the supreme
court, and voters Offering to regis
ter do not have to produce poll-tax
receipts.
The Court declares that said Act
is against the express provisions of
the State Constitution and is of no
effect. That said Act is an attempt
to add qualifications to voters a.
gainst the doctrine expressed by
said Constitution. That the title of
the bill is not descriptive of the
matter legislated upon, and for this
reason is null and void. The de-
cision sweeps away the whole act OF
1897 and leaves the payment of poll
taxes to the honor of the citizens at
large and the ingenuity of the AS
SCISSOR to collect the same.

plenty Of time, and while wander

cemetery 1t was beautiful place,
and the delegate walked around a.
mong the graves. He saw monu-
ment, one of the latest in the ceme-
tary, and read with surprise the in
scription on it.
"A Lawyer and an Honest Man. /"
The delegate scratched his head
aud looked at the monument again.
He read the inscription over and
over.
Then he walked all around the
monument and examined the grave
closely. Another man in the ceme-
terry approached and asked him.
Have you found the grave of an
old friend?" ''No," said the dele
gate, "but L was wondering how
they came to bury those two men in

The plans for the proposed en-
largement of the big DeLamar mill
at Mercur were yesterday approved
by the owner of the plant, and in
the next few hours work upon the
extensions will have commenced
and carried out as already indicated
in The Tribune. With the extern
sion of bout 100 feet on each end
of the tier on which the tanks are
located, the whole will be about 600
feet between walls. This will CON
tain, with the addition of the new
tanks, total of twenty-five, capable
of holding 5000 tons. The work
will be prosecuted with all possible
dispatch.
Capt. DeLamar, who was waited
upon by several gentlemen interest
ed in making success of the Min
ing congress yesterday, consented to
entertain them at the mill during
the event.-Salt Lake Tribune.
General satisfaction is expressed
at the result of stage service over
the new Milford route. There was
some delay for the first few trips on
account of having to transfer stock
across the country some distance
from one station to another.
1t was rumored several days ago
that the train service from Salt Lake
to Milford might be again changed
to night run. This would be more
comfortable for travellers, but worse
for mail. Our Salt Lake papers
would reach us II hours later than
now, while the north bound mail
would pass through town here at
10 O'Clock at night and the south
bound, at 2 in the morning, instead
of both in the daytime as at pres
ent.
Several ibelous notices relating
to the Nevada Mining Co and it's
managers have been posted around
town the last few nights. Posted in
the dark, they crafty only the
cowardly nature of the perpetrators,
while they necessarily result in in
jury to those directly crediting the
company, in rendering less liable,
speedy settlement of claims. The
best interests of the community lie
in ferreting out the perpetrators of
these late outrages and bringing
them to criminal justice.

somehow and stand up for the town

tor; he'll get on. The Lord knows
how-but somehow.

Such a man dies by little degrees. First
little indigestion and little neglect. Then
loss of appetite. The bowels get ciogged
and the blood receives poisons instead of
healthy nutriment. Old, inert tissues in
flesh, muscle, nerve and brain are not re-
placed by new. The whole body gets stale.

condition is filed in the morning with I'm
wholesome odors as if it had been occupied

The Optimism Of the Bible.

The great prophets are men as keen
Iy sensitive to danger as the deer which
stands trembling in the woods. There
are no more appalling pictures OF evil
than these which they present, and
nothing more terrific than their visions
of coming wrath. And yet there is nc
light, no hope, like that which they
see glowing on the heights of future
ages. John in his Apocalypse lets
loose all the terrors of the universe.
Every broken seal unlocks a pltlless
storm. And yet above it all he sees
golden city whose towers and minarats
are bathed in eternal light and over
whose Joyous life no shadows ever fall
And this is the only true optimism
that which knows and measures evil,
and which sees danger, but rises above
all fears, all doubt of the oppressive
conflict. all the weariness OF struggle
which is never ended, and all despair
of defeat, through mighty faith in the
purpose and power of God to redeem
Advance.
