Herosm in America knows no Sec
tionalism. North and south, east and
west, are scattered the graves of those
whose lives were given joyously to the
service OF the nation and whose memo
ries will prove an inspiration to the
future generations in which the republic
places her hope. Each state honors its
own heroes, for each state, like each
heart, "best knoweth its own loss" and
the honor of each section is the coun-
try's honor. Under northern pines, under
southern magnolias, in the shadow Of
western mountains, on the banks of the
Hudson, lie the bodies of men who
fheerfully sacrificed home, family,
friends and wealth for the integrity of
he United States, loving wife and chill
hren much, but honor more.-Detroit

Heber, June 2S.-Monday evening a
farewell party was given in honor of
Elder AtteNall Wootton, who is about

the county that had at any time taught
school during Superintendent Woot-
toms II years of official duty were in
vited, and many of them were in at
tendance, something unheard of be-
fore in the history of Wasatch county.
An interesting programme had been
prepared, which was rendered in a
manner very pleasing to all. One of
the leading features of the evening was
the presentation of a magnificent gold
headed cane to the superintendent from
the teachers and school officers. The
presentation speech and response were

INDIGNANT MINISTER.
Some Filthy Individual Expectorated
On His Little Girl.

Ephraim, June 2S.-Quite a sensation
was caused here a few nights ago by
the announcement of Rev. Hanson, the
Methodist pastor. that some miscreant
had picked his little 6-year-old daugh-
ter up and spit tobacco juice in her
face. Mr.. Hanson spoke very strongly
on the matter and rather intimated
that the whole community was respon-
sible for the outrage. Marshal Beal,
with his customary zeal, started in to
find the offender, but his investigation
developed the fact that there were
very slender grounds for the charge.
Instead of being as stated, the child,
when questioned, said she was standing
inside their picket fence in the evening,
when some man passing by spit upon
her. AS the fence is considerably tall
er than the child, and the purported
offense was committed after dark, it
is very probable the man did not see
her at all. The pastor promised TO
publicly modify his statement, but has
not done so yet. No doubt he will do
so before the meetings close.
