proposition.
With the exception of the Santa Re.
none of the Chicago lines has formally

and Sullivan Company.
Especial to The Herald.l


Boise, Ida, June 20.-Judge r. Nc
Bride of Spokane, representing the
Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mining &
Concentrating company. today applied
to United States Judge Beatty. and Sc
cured an alternative Injunction
against NJ. ]. Dowd, assessor of Sho-
shone county, restraining that official
from selling the property of the Bun
ker Hill and Sullivan company for de-
linquent taxes. The writ is made re-
turnable in San Francisco on July 10
ne=..
The petition for the writ sets forth
that the assessment made by Assessor
Dowd is and equally ordered by the
county board, is illegal.
The petition for the writ contains the
following statement, which, in view of
the condition of affairs in Shoshone
county, is very significant:
THAT the discrimination against the
complainant in these valuations is born
from the fact that those mining COM
panies which employ laborers and min
ers in their mines and mining opera
tions known as members of labor
unions, only had their property as
sessed Of like character and class of
that of the complainant at about 80 per
cent less than the complainant. and. as
afiiant verify believes. that this was
done as punishment because the COM
plainant company refused TO exclude
from its employment miners and labor
ers who did not belong to such labor
organizations"
Proceeding, the petition states that
Dowd and the members of the board of
county commissioners were elected by
the miners union, and that those of
ficers have Disseminated against the
Bunker Hill & Sullivan because of the
latter's refusal to employ only union
men,

MARCUS DALY'S RETIREMENT.
Prominent Business Man of Ana
conda Expresses His Regret.

Theodore Ehret of Anaconda, Mont,
is in the city TO visit his two daugh-
tiers who are at school in st. Mary's
and incidentally to investigate the
many advantages of Salt Lake city.
Mr.. Ehret has built up and still con-
ducts the largest furniture business in
Montana, and by close application, has
amassed a large fortune. In speaking
of the retirement from Montana of
Marcus Daily Mr.. Ehret expressed the
deepest regret. He had known Daily
for many years; he considered him the
backbone of the state and thinks his
withdrawal a great misfortune.
Mr.. Ehret has watched the progress
of trusts too, and has reached the con-
clusion that strikes and labor disturb
ances always follow in their wake
This is another cause for regret. DAILY
never had trouble with his men and he
is to be succeeded now by the Stand
ard Oil people who constitute the big
gest trust in the nation. This does not
augur well for the industries of Mon
tana. Mr. Ehret thinks. and the indica-
tions are that when DAILY leaves the
state many of his best friends will go
with him

MONUMENT FOR SOLDIERS
COMMITTEE IN CHARGE OF PRO-
JECT NOT ORGANIZED.
Meeting Was Held Yesterday, But
Too Few Attended-Mrs. Palmer
Discusses the idea.

The committee having temporarily in
charge the erection of monument TO
the volunteers held meeting at the
city and county building yesterday at
ternoon, but owing TO the small at
tendance a permanent organlza ton was
not effected. A meeting for that pur-
pose, to which every citizen is invited,
is called for next Tuesday afternoon at
8 O'Clock.
A number of plans were informally
ed TO notify all the churches in the
city of the movement, and solicit aid
from the various congregations for the
fund.
Mrs. Palmer. who is chairman of the
committee, offered some valuable sug-
gestions toward the completion of the
work. She believes it will not be diff
cult to raise the amount necessary
from the citizens of Salt Lake. If
every one would contribute the sum of
10 cents the aggregate will be more
than enough. The school children, num-
bering $4,000, she believes, should be
represented in the fund, as it would be
an object lesson and something to
which they could point with pride in
years to come
"A wrong impression has gone out as
to this work. said Mrs. Palmer. "A
great many believe it is Grand Army
movement, and that the monument is to
be located in Mount Olivet. That is
not true. 1t is movement of the pop
ulace-a matter of patriotism, and the
duty of every person is to aid.
Our volunteers she continued. did
not hesitate when this call was made.
We stayed at home and enjoyed our
selves while they were fighting for the
flag, and now, say, it is every mans
and every woman's duty to honor those
who gave up their lives"
AS to the location of the monument,
Mrs. Palmer said it would be left with
the association, when permanently or
ganiZed.
1T will not matter whether it is in
Mount Olivet, the City cemetery or in
a public park" said She 1.-The Mount
Olivet trustees offered four burial lots
for Utah volunteers. We would be just
as pleased if the city would offer that
many more, but certain it is that we
propose to have a place for them to
rest. The last four dead volunteers of
whom we have heard have no friends
or relatives in the state. The govern
ment says we can have them sent home
for the asking. and we propose to do
so. More than that, we are going to
have monument to their memory.
and no American can afford to turn
away or refuse his support
A large turnout is hoped for next
Tuesday. in order to get the matter
upon fair basis.

when plat a was gone through IL was
found that out of the III blocks in the
plat, and probably thirty times as

eight complaints of too high assess

only two grievances, and in the 1856
blocks in plat d there were only two

With this information before the
board. it was concluded that no reduc-

the probability was not removed that
an increase should be ordered on bust

islature.
Especial to The Herald->

Boise. Ida, June 2O.-Judge Rich Of
the Fifth district has rendered a de-
cision sustaining the validity of the
sheep quarantine law passed by the
last session of the legislature and the
proclamation of the governor issued
hereunder, establishing quarantine
against sheep from certain counties of
Utah and Nevada.
This case arose in Oneida county,
where II. Rasmussen was arrested for
violating the governors proclamation.
demurrer was interposed by the de-
PENDANT. in which it was alleged that
the legislature had attempted TO dele
gate legislative power to the governor
without authority of law. The decis-
ion says:
The court is of the opinion that the
state, through its legislature. had the
right and did exercise its police powers
constitutionally in the enactment Of the
law under which this information is
drawn; that the governor acted within
the scope of his authority in the issue
of his proclamation. and that the Of
Tense charged is sufficiently stated in

The condition of Morgan Thomas,

Monday night was much improved yes
terday. The physicians state that he
will be able to leave the hospital in a

Through Il misunderstanding it was

the Jail during his confinement. His
identity was enormously given by an
officer. Thomas was almost cured of
thel morphine habit. in fact, had lost
all desire for the drug, so he told Jailor
Kimball. He had grown respondent
over the failure of his parents to write
to him
