A BLOW AT "STORS PAY"

Local merchants are somewhat con
cerned regarding the recent Official de-
cision which says that any brass oralu-
minum checks which resemble money
and are used as a substitute for money
are Illegal, aud that persons or firms
passing them place themselves liable
TO arrest. Wouldn't IL be an excellent
idea for all our merchants to enter into
an agreement and eliminate the oh.
noxious store p,y' system from the
towns businossp Nit. Pleasant Pyra'

We believe that the change would
rebound to the benefit OF everybody
even those who now use the system Of
store pay"

IN MEMORiAM.
general.

The death Of President Wllford
Woodruff cannot but be regarded as
severe blow TO The church Of which he
was the head, and great loss to the
State of Utah President Woodruff
was, we believe, in all respects a good
man, aud in his walk in life great
one. He was man who won the re.
spcct, confidence and esteem Of all
with whom he came in contact,
whether Mormon or gentle. TO the
former especially he was loving and
beloved father. His reputation as an
honest. faithful and consistent church
worker extends far beyond the confines
of Utah. His death is regretted by all
and to his family sincere sympathy is
extended by all citizens Of the State

the record of the gold reserve, the
largest amount in history being in the
treasury. This is explained by the
fact that tho god has been paid in for
the purchase OF unnecessary interest

grow poorer The gold reserve is a
bugaboo. anyway. and should long ago

AN EXPLANATION.

The Enquirer related recently with
some glee that one OF our local Office
holders had renounced the Democratic
party and announced that in future
his allegiance would be given to the
party of Hanna. We are not surprised,
The gentleman referred TO Is per-
petual oiilce-seekor; he now holds one
Office to which he was elected as a
Democrat aud one TO which he was
elected as "non-partlsan;n he IL also
recognized as candidate for county
office. and knowing that he had no
hope of nomination from the Demo.
Gratis, has sought new pasture. A
near relative Is also Republican aud
prominent office seeker In that party
and II Is probably thought the two can
hunt better In couples. The loss OF
such people TO the Democrats is dis
tlnct gain for the party.

And, whatever may be Mr.. Loriilard's 9
future course, 10 should mover be forgotten
by racing men that he has done quite as
much I'm behalf of tho sport OF kings as
any other one man I'm the country. The
achievements OF his horses abroad have
been far moro important indeed than those
of horses owned by any other American.
His Parole won the Derby years ago, and
no other horse from this side Of the water
has been able to duplicate that feat.
Within week or two of that event his
Iroquois beat Isonomy, then counted the
heetest race horse in all Great Britain,
and the dual victories nightly exalted tho
United States in British eyes.
Both Iroquois and Parole are still alive
and excellently cared for, though their
racing days have long been past. lroquois
is on the famous Belle Meade breeding
farm In Kentucky, while Parole is round
Ing out his age at Rancocas.

Two soldiers were killed in the affray.
Eye witnesses OF the affair say That
