Logan, Aug. H.-PeOple here are riUch
disap. .ointed over the action of the rail
road company in regard to the rate fixed
for transportation TO Salt Lake on the
occasion of the homecoming of the col
unteers. There are d great many Of the
relatives and friends of Caches returning
soldiers that are DESTROYS of witnessing
the Salt Lake celebration. but they had
figured on the railway company putting
on an early train from here ON the l5tn
so that the soldiers might be met at Os-
den and accompanied 10 the capital Also
that a special train would be run back
that night. Hundreds would have gone
down had this been done, but instead a
rate of $2.s5 for the round trip has been
established. and persons Will have 10
leave here on the 18th and returD on the
2Oth- a great many Cannct auord the
expense of so ions stay, and many ann
ers who would like T. 20 down cannot
leave in the middle of harvest for three
days Mayor Anderson Is endeavoring 10
have better arrangements made and Will
likely this afternoon appoint "a committee
to go to Salt Lake tomorrow and talk
over the matter with the railroad otnciais.
Excursion rates from here to Saltair are
never more than $50. and il is ineXp-ic
able to people here by the road should
increase that rate upon an occasion Of this
kind.

CASE OF MIR. GREENE.
Senator Rawlins Settles Scrap Be-
tween Republican Factions.

tween Republican Factions.
Thursday last The Herald stated that
Web Greene was in danger and might
not be appointed supervisor of the cen
sus for Utah. Mr. Greene has just been
officially notified by Commissioner Mer-
Ram that he cannot be appointed TO the
position. Senator Joseph L. Rawlins is
largely responsible for this act of Mr..
Merriam's
Driven to desperation, no doubt by
the charges and charges of the
warning Hanna factions over the mat
ter, the commissioner finally turned to
Senator Rawlins for reliable informa-
ton. In response TO this request, SEN
ator Rawlins informed Mr.. Merriam
that Web Greene would not be sat
isfactory officer, and upon that infor
nation he was set aside.
The Hanna patronage brokers explain
this humiliauing circumstance by
pointing TO the fact that while their
party has numerous tails in Utah it has
no well-defined head, no court of last
resort, as it would have if there were
Republican senator or congressman.
All factions had been whipped into
line for Greene finally, but two late.
Merriam in disgust with their bicker-
ing and back biting, turned them all
down as the best solution of d dis
graceful fight over a little office.
Now the state central committee pro-
poses. TO assert its authority and dem
onstrate that it is the only channel
through which blessings should flow
from the fountain at Washington to the
hungry patriots in Utah. This COM
mittee has not fixed upon a man for
the place. Dennis c. Eichnor. 4. H.
Parsons and Mont Fisher are under con-
sideration. There will be others, in
Guiding some from out of town.
