A Wise Selection.

When those men who are at
the head decided to build sugar
factory in this neighborhoCd very
many sites were offered, but
one OF he important questions
was the water supply. Some
though the supply could be obtain
ed from wells sunk and the water
pumped from there, and others
thought that it could readily be OBJ
tanned from our mountain streams
and great and generous offers
were made to the gentlemen who
were looking out the location.
Being inexperienced in the great
undertaking they were about to
launch, they became somewhat
confused over this question, but,
be it said TO their credit they
moved very carefully. The wis
dom of their careful movements
in this regard has proven to be
one of the great profits OF success
In handling the factory. The
location of the factory canno,
SO far as the water is concerned
be surpassed in this or any other
state, or in the world. The sup
ly is three or four times more
than the factory needs at any
time and the best of this is, there
is no one to say aught to the Co
they having complete control o
the water; and this is not all
for the location is upon belt o
land where artesian wells can at I
small expense be easily obtained
This wise selection has saved the
company thousands of dollars be
sides an endless DISPUTE with some
company or person who NIGH
have owned the water, if the
factory had located elsewhere.

Some of the Eastern papers
that formely advocated the free
silver side of the money question
have of late changed their posi-
ton and are now taking the other
side. The New York World
used to be a strong leading
paper for the Democratic princa-
pies now repudiates the silver
plank on the Chicago platform
and the New York Journal seems
to be going the same way.

Lehi has twelve school teachers

We see by the minutes of the
council the Marshal is requested
to put in force the section of the
ordinince referring to fast driving.
This is quite proper, but there is
another practice which is just as
dangerous as the driving and is
one of the greatest nuisanoes in the
city and that is the whirling a,
certain cross streets. There is
much talk and dissatisfaction by
the citizens who live on these
corners. Something should be
done to stop the nuisance at once.

1t was Immediately noticed that the
cablegram. as officially promulgated, did
not entirely agree with the brief summary
Of its points which had been previously
given out and the immediate presumption
consideration the officials had concluded
that IL was public policy to eXpurgatc the
dispatch, Thus, made public, it con-
taiucd no reference to the cutting of the
cable by Commodore Dewey; then the fact
that he lacked men to take possession of
the place, and finally that he had the en-
tire bay OF Manila at his mercy. 1t was
also noticed that the dispatch bore date of
May /. Tho Manila dispatch could not
have consumed more than six days in maxi
ing the short run across to Hong Kong.
Therefore it was Immediately assumed tha,
the above dispatch was only the first OF
two more that had been brought over to
words Commodore Dewey had written sun
day night, making his cable a brics account
OF the days work; instead of sending it
Immediately by the McCulloch to Hong
Kong he had delayed that vessel for two o.
three days at the very least, probably to
use her in the subsequent bomblrIment of
the town and forts. The events OF these

No Collaps1ng Buildings.

German buildings are constructed with
the precision which seems an essential to
the Teutonic race, and are characterized
by the same solidity and staying qualities,
being built Tor use rather than for show or
sale. Upon certain points the regulations
are inflexible; the architect may indulge
his fancy as to ornamentation, but the d.
mansions are prescribed, the height must
be the same. the inner walls of a certain
thickness. the floors laid in certain way,
the chimneys so constructed that fires from
defective hues are an impossibihty, the
windows and water courses on the same
level. the material the same as that OF
other houses in the same block, and poor
materials, imperfect sanitary arrangements,
and other defects are excluded by rigid
regulations. and Germany is consequently
free from the horrible building collapses
which so often disgrace cities in other
lands. No shell game can be played
by the German builder, and the occupant
is not required to begin repairs with the
second year, expend the cost OF the build
ing in 10 years, and afterward either tear
it down as uninhabitable, or palm 1t Oft on
some other victim. 4 German house sell
dom needs repairs. Every man house
is indeed his castle, built to endure the
siege of time for generations, and having
always a solid value upon which the pur-
chaser NAV depend
