In the very near future it is not at all
unlikely that sheep will be licensed and
that the several counties of the state
will receive a revenue from the roaming
of the same over the public lands.
1t will be remembered that the legis-
lature Incorporated into the county gov
eminent bill a provision whereby the
county commissioners can license any
business not declared by law to be illegal.
This section was taken from the law OF
California, where the supreme court has
decided that the section applies to Ii
censing the grazing and pasturing OF
sheep.
The California court passed on this
measure some time ago.
The constitution OF that state is very
similar in many respects to the constitu-
ton of Utah
In California the board of supervisors
of one of the counties passed an ordi-
nance licensing the business of herd
ing. pasturing and grazing of sheep and
imposed q tax of 80 cents per 100 head,
which was contested by a heavy owner
of sheep and carried from one to an
other of the courts until finally passed
upon by the supreme court. which decided
that il was perfectly legal
The encouragement of Utah, who has
looked the matter up, in an opinion rem
dered, has decided that this provision of
the county government bill applies in
this. that the county commissioners of
the several counties may levy tax, or
rather, enforce a license collection upon
sheep men.
Up to date none of the counties have
tackled the business. But few days
ago the county commissioners Of Rich
county decided to break the ice and the
question was brought up and discussed.
It was agreed that the tax would be Il
good thing for the county and could be
collected Accordingly the county attor
ney was instructed to draft an ordinance
in accordance with the provisions of law
for the collection of a license for herd
ing sheep in the county and this ordi-
nance will be presented at the next meet
ing and adopted.
With this done no herds of sheep can
roam in the county at large, without the
owner has first paid the license.
That there will be suits at law result
ing there is no doubt The owners of
sheep will, no doubt. try to invalidate
the action of the commissioners, but I'M
der the decision of the California court it
is very difficult to see where there can
be any room for doubling the constitu-
of the law.
And with this law in force in one
county it is very likely that it will be
passed in others. Certainly the counties
next to Rich viii act in a similar man
ner. and by and by the same will have
spread to all in the state.
1t is said to have been very beneficial
in all the counties in California. where
it has been tried: has resulted in increas-
ing the revenues and decreasing the row.
ing bands of sheep from other states
which come in and stay until the feed
is gone and then disappear.

The Dep CREEK RAIL
ROAD.
Every Assurance that it VIII Speedily be
Built.

01NAH
Plans for the construction of the
Deep Greek railroad are said TO have
been definitely agreed upon at Salt
Lake by parties interested and the
papers have been forwarded to Bos-
ton for final signature.
The Tribune says the plans for the
proposed line are the same as those
recently made public. The most i'm
portant feature is that the line to
Deep Creek is to be built from the
Oregon Short Lines Tintic branch.
The segregation of the Short Line
from the Union Pacific System puts
that road in position to extend its
line and it is to that company
that we look to build south from
Milford. 1t takes time however, to
arrange for fund and the details in
cident TO such enterprises. This
company is doing it however as the
following general article on railroad
matters from the Globe-Democrat
indicates;
Railroads are now emerging from
the most trying period in their his
tory. covering the four years since
1898 and the large amount of old
securities which have been replaced
by new ones-amounting to over
1913, 000, 900 of bonds and 1868, 900, :
600 of stock during the last eight
cen months-represent, for the most
part, the effect of those companies
which were forced into liquidation
by the hard times and have now been
reorganized." The paper explains
that thirteen roads, with an aggre-
gate mileage of 20,G77 have been re-
organized since January l 1896 and
their securities listed on the ex-
change and adds: Application has
been made to list the new Oregon

be placed on the list next week.

For the MEETING Of the National

of using that line. This year our

The service of the UNION PACIFIC

best. The equipment consists OF
handsome day coaches, Chair Cars

THE UTAH JUBILEE.
Promises to Be the Greatest Event the
Mountain Region Has Witnessed.

"ounNaHi NckloH rus WtheSSeu.
On every hand interest is mani
tested in the approaching Utah eel
ebration and the question; care you
going to the Jubilee?" is heard every
day. The general interest mani
tested hereabouts and the low rates
of transportation insure a good rep
resentation from this section. De-
Lamar, Phoebe, Panaca and the sur
rounding Valleys will all be repre-
sented.
The editor of the Salt Lake Trib-
une has been investigating the prep
arations, and, as result, put him.
self on record in the following
fashion in late issue of the paper:
"It is safe to say that those people
who may be present in Salt Lake at
the coming Jubilee, will see, perhaps
the finest display they ever looked
upon. The procession will be miles
in length and radiant all the way
with wonderful symbolic illustrations
OF Utah's past and present. No one
save the initiated has any possible
conception of the work of prepare
ton which has been going on, OIL
what a surprise awaits them on
Pioneer Day morning Not only
has genius been planning, but con.
summate art has been working cut
the details with result which will
astonish all beholders. We know
thereof we speak and we assert with.
out fear of contradiction, that aside
from some OF the Mardi Gras old
time extravagances, there has never
been procession in the United
States that would make parallel fol-
the one that is to be seen in Sal
Lake City in about two weeks from
now. The work of preparation un
der Mr.. Anderson has been inces
SAINT for months and is still being
pushed with tireless energies. Presi
dent Mckinley will never know hoy
much he will throw offon himself
he does not come. We tell our read
ers. that if they design coming to tn
Jubilee and carry out their purpose
they will receive most joyous sui
prise in what they will see.
