erected large house thereon with doors
on both sides. BY this means, according
TO official reports, the laws would be
evaded by backing up teams laden with
Mexican goods TO the rear door OF the
house, which did not require crossing the
line. The goods were then taken out OF
the door on the American side and car
ried away. The case was reported by the
collector Of customs, and he asked that
no townsite be allowed unless there was
a street set apart along the border to
prevent this evasion. The general land
Office has now acted on this proposition
and the president has made reservation
OF strip of land 1000 feet wide and two
miles long at Nogaies, which II is hoped
will prevent such practices as that re-
ferred to and secure to the government
its customs dues. The necessary surveys
for the purpose are now being made.

"Stoo Thief >,

Under the above heading the Stand
ard contributes the following:
What did the present city council do
with the 10 per cent of the peoples
taxes if the taxes can be reduced that
much?" ask the Salt Lake papers. our
politicians and city heelers. Forty per
cent or the city taxes is $32.340. The
present city council paid, last year, al
most $4,000 on the city debt The coun
Gil viii 90 the same this year. as soon
as the taxes are paid. Where did the 20
per cent so Jo2 oh, what FOOLS these
nortais be-"
VIII the Standard answer if It is not
a fact that the city council used a
50, 600 warrant given as q bonus several
years ago 10 the Rio GranGe and re-
turned by that company because it did
not fulhA its agreement? Did it not
use over SIS, 900 stored away as g sink
ing fund oy previous councils9 Did
ii not receive over $4,000 from exgol-
lector Hamer. which mad been held sew
eTal years in dispute? There is but
one answer, and that is, Yes.
Now, $4,000 and $4,000 and $4,000 make
SIS 600. Hence the boosted reduction
was only q reduction Of the difference
between s32,340 and $500, or $4,000.
Now. another thing: The present city
council received from Collector Hurlbut
SIC, ssS.16 which we're taxes from 1895
held back nearly TWO years because of
d dispute. Nov. when it is considered
that the council used this fund it win
be seen that at least $42, Geo passed into
its hands not regular revenues for 1897,
nor 4i!! there be similar revenues in
1898. How is there any remarkable
economy shown in q reduction Of the
public debt $4,000 when the council had
e+9 800 extra money to do II With II
viii not DC to pirate about the wisdom
displayed in paying off the debt All
honest debts should be paid, even if
there has to be a 8 mill levy.
The voters OF Ogden VIII not be de-
ceiyed by any such juggling OF figures.
These naoFtals be not such fools as some
Republicans seem to think them.

BRIGHAM CITY CAMPAIGN.
Republicans Against Non-Partisans
Interest in Salt Lake.

Brigham City, Oct. 22.-The struggle
at the polls in Brigham City this fall
will be between Republicans and nom
paruSans, the Democrats failed to put
a ticket in the field.
At a mass meeting Of the citizens,
which was we'll attended. the
unanimous opinion, after q full and
free discussion, was that a nou-par-
ti5an ticket appeared to be an abso-
lutte necessity. The meeting here was
not held in a bank vault, and YOUR
Uncle John z DoOiy was not in evil
dence. It was a meeting which any
American citizen might be proud to
attend.
The people of this section of the
county look with great interest upon
the approaching election in Salt Lake.
Even those who favor the non-par-
tisan movement here condemn the
methods used by the alleged nou-par-
tisanS in Salt Lake as un-Anerican
and as unworthy the support of Ameri-
can citizens. An effort has been and
is being made TO show thar counsel
was followed, but the interesting fact
remains that the meeting was ad-
vertised. it was open to all. and there
was nothing secret about the matter
at all That is one point wherein the
Brigham City and the Salt Lake City
tickets differ.
