senator Hanna for Export Bountiea.

Following President Hill. of the Great
Northern railroad, Senator Hanna, OF Ohio, Ia
credited with favoring the payment CT a small
bounty on exports for brief period Of years.
for the protection Of American shipping in tie
foreign carrying trade. What Senator Hanna
considers to be a small bounty. ard what hs
notion Of few years is, as applicable to the
building up Of our merchant marine we have
no information.
There can be no doubt whatever that Sen
ator Hanna's latest suggestion, If courageous
ly put into operation, whether the direct pay
ment should be made TO the American ship
owner or the exporter, would reyolutionize
production in the United States, while an
American merchant marine would materialize
with rapidity far beyond any precedent in
history. Ten years OF such bounty would

index to the prevailing white sentf-
ment.ST Thus, after thirty years of ex-
perience, 1t is demonstrated to the
satisfaction of half a dozen states that
IL was an error on the part of the Re-
publican party to have invested the
colored man with the right and priyi-
lege Of suffrage. Sentiment in other
states of the Union may, indeed, be di-
vided upon the wisdom of the policy
inaugurated by the party 1t was
adopted bysa great political party, not
as an act Sef generosity toward the
colored race. but as a measure to main
tain that partyin power at all hazards.
IL mas failed OF its purpose in the
South-thatsewa long ago apparent.
Inc citizens of states in a higher
latitude have no good ground for criti-
cism of those of the seaboard states
so long as the latter go peaceably
about their methods of readjusting the
suffrage. Wescannot appreciate the
conditions in the Southern states, for
we are entire strangers to them. With
US the colored man is generally a self
respecting person, having an intelli-
gent conception of the duties of citi-
zenship and DESTROYS of discharging
them as conscfentiousry as his white
neighbor. He may be an altogether
different person in the South.
If the South becomes too warm for
the active husting colored politician,
who has been disfranchised, Minneso-
ia will welcome him to her soil. He
should, of course, bring along his COON
skin cap and ulster at this season of
the year. He will find here healthy,
bracing climate and good people"
and he will get along quite eomforta-
bly, after he has acquired their ways.

THE vERNAL CELEBRATION.
Other Local News-Judge Rhodes On
Fishing Trip.

Vernal, July 25.-Pioneer day was
celebrated with more or less enthusi-
asm throughout the valley today, with
the exceptiEl of Vernal, where all was
unusually quiet, owing to the fact that
the greater portion of the inhabitants
hied themselves to the different CEN
ters of attraction, in the outlying
wards.
Great crowds were in attendance at
Mill ward, where a programme and
procession were the leading features,
the Cotton grove being the principal
rendezvous for the pleasure-seekers.
At Glines' ward a very interesting
time was spent. The procession at this
forth considerable praise from the spec
tators.
The hardships of the pioneers were
depicted in an intensely realistic way.
The procession took a trip to Vernal in
the afternoon, and wended its way
through it's deserted streets, as if in
mockery of a place without sufficient
enterprise to celebrate either the
Fourth or the oath.
Judge Rhodes, Sheriff Preece and a
number of Vernal people returned last
night from fishing excursion to the
head waters of Ashley creek. They re-
port fish plentiful and all agree that
the trip was very pleasant and enjoy
able.

made there since 1897. and still the
ground was marvelously rich in its
wealth of gold. and if in this country,
would drive people crazy. But, on ac-
count of their inaccessibility and the
difficulty attending their operation, the
miner justly earned all he was able to
take out, Mr.. Springer being the au-
thOrity for the statement that Edo
RADIO creek was rich from No. l dis
covery UP to No. 40, while the other
creeks were spotted.
OF the thousands who have gone to
Alaska, Mr.. Smith states that nine
tenths of them have struck nothing
and have nothing to do, and that the
sooner they get out of Dawson and into
the surrounding country the better it
will be for them, and he is Of the opin-
ion that the richest gravel deposits
have not Oeen discovered as yet and
that they VIII eventually be found on
the American side Of the line, TO which
point Of the compass many are now
finding their way.
On the MinOok, Mr.. Smith worked
with Salt Lake boy named Cook,
whose given name he could not re-
member. Mr.. Smith also met Harry
Jennings, a brother of Joe Jennings of
the Dinwoodey Furniture company.
Jennings was also on the Minook and
was apparently doing well, as he was
building a cabin with the intention of
working his claim when Mr. Smith
left for his eastern home.

DAVIS COUNTY TAXES.
Board of Equalization Has Been Or
dered> to Reconvene.

Pennington, July 2S.-The state board
of equalization has ordered the county
commissioners to re-convene as a board
of equalization next Monday, to adjust
the discrepancies in real estate valu-
atoms that have been discovered by a
comparison with the assessment roll
of 1897 The total reductions made by
the assessor and by the county board
of equalization amounted to about $751;
900, and on this showing the state
equalizers gave notice of their inten-
ton to raise the real estate valuations
in Davis county 10 per cent. An in
vestigation developed the fact that the
assessor had made reductions to the
extent of $4,000. in addition to S24, 600
reduced by the board. The chief re-
auctions were made in Pennington
Centerville and South Bountiful, and
the county board of equalization will
now be asked to make up the deficiency
by raising the valuations lowered by
the assessor.
This morning the county commission
ers held a special session and fixed the
tax levy for 1898. The county levy was
fixed at mills on a dollar and a levy
Of IL mills was made for county school
purposes. The county superintendent

commissioners decided against it..

FRATERNAL SOCIETY DAY.
RESORTS WELL PATRONIZED
FOR PARK CITY'S BENEFIT.
Interesting Programme of Exercises
at Saltair-Large Attendances at
Garfield Beach and the Lagoon.

In the distribution of patrons at the
various resorts yesterday, fair Saltair
had its full proportion. The call was
made by the fraternal societies for the
beneficent purpose of aiding the Park
City sufferers who lost heavily in the
recent fire. The crowd that found its way
thither was very pleasant one, and all
seemed to get their full quota of enjoy
ment. Superintendent Jack was diligent-
ly looking after the welfare of his patrons.
Prof. Meak-n was ubiquitous, and Mr..
Miller looked attentiVely after the inner
man. The bathing was simply superb
and hundreds INDUCED in bathing in the
briny waters.
The pavilion was, as usual, the scene
of a large company in the afternoon en-
joying themselves in the light fantastic.
this feature continuing at intervals until
the last train started on its homewarc
journey.
AT 7:S0 in the evening programme was
rendered which was very enjoyable
Judge Breeze, in taking charge of the ex-
erciSes, stated the object of the Fra.ernal
Union to be what its name imports, the
amelioration of mankind, and that these
societies are founded upon the broad plat
form of a common humanity. He then an
nounced S. W. Darke who spoke of the
grandeur of the mission of the brother
hood of fraternity, the linking together
more closely of man to man, and the place
that these agencies have in the advance
ment of civilization.
Next upon the programme was reci-
tation by Thomas Ashby, who rendered
very pleasingly THE Rappahannock." His
rendition of the poem caused the old
soldiers of the civil war to reflect upon
the stormy scenes of that unfortunate
fraternal strife. brakes Address to the
American Flag was faultleSsly presented
by that prince of reciters, Prof. john T.
Meakin, whose conception of this fine pro-
duction was excellent.
AT o'clock the company was treated
to something new in fireworks BY the
use of some explosives underneath the
surface of the water, geysers were pro-
duced. in which the water was thrown
upward to the height of 100 feet, creating
no little interest.
Following came the bombardment of
Manila, which closed the attractions of
the day.
The following fraternal societies were
represented: Masons, Knights of Pythias,
L. o. o. F.. A. O.. u: w, Woodmen, Mac
cabees, Fraternal Union, Home Forum
Rebekahs, Ladies Woodmen's circles,
Eastern Star, Royal Arcanum and Elks
