reservation. Sixty acres will be ample
for the direct purposes of the univer-
sity, and the additional acreage grant
ed could be improved, plated and sold
for residence lots. Considering the SUI
perb. healthful location of the land in
view, overlooking the bustling city and
the grand panoramic valley OF Salt
Lake, it is not exaggeration to estl-
mate the selling value -of the addi-
tional grant at 5000, 600. This sum would
be available for the erection of more
buildings and for the purchase of more
equipment when needed, or the fund
could be used to repay any previous
outlay, or it might be converted into
a permanent investment, the income to
go toward the university's mainten-
ance.
The site already granted extends
from First South to Fourth South

several times as much more. land on
the western and southern limits of the
reservation, is not now and never Will

tiers that no objection could be raised

BEFORE THE JUSTICES.
Nielsen Declines to Accept a Guaran-
tee Company As Surety.


Justice Nielsen yesterday declined to
accept the United States Fidelity &
Guarantee company OF Maryland, as
surety on a bond for $165 in a writ filed
by the defendant on an undertaking
for appeal to the district court in a suit
on a debt brought by the Singer Man
ufacturing company against Elizabeth
Byrne, wherein judgment was rendered
two weeks ago in favor of the defend
ant for $40, amounting with costs. to
$S0.95.
The plaintiff excepted to the United
States Fidelity & Guarantee company
acting as surety on said bond on the
ground that the guarantee company is
not a statutory bond as contemplated
by the statute.
Justice Nielsen, in disappearing the
bond, said: Il am unable to learn that
the question has ever been passed upon
by our courts in the state and hence
have had to make a thorough eXamina-
ton Of the law bearing on the ques-
ton.
Il am of the opinion that this action
is not such as is contemplated by our
statutes. There is no evidence before
the court that the guarantee company,
who undertakes to secure the respon-
dent in the case. in the event of an
affirmation of the judgment in the,up-
per court, has a dollars worth of prop
erty, by which to satisfy the judgment
and costs, within the jurisdiction Of the
courts of the state. 1t would be a great
injustice to allow an undertaking to be
approved against this objection of the
successful party, when there does not
appear to be such a bond as contem-
plated by the statutes of our state. If
an action should be brought against
the sureties on this bond the plaintiff
would have to go $500 miles to find
property to satisfy judgment and this
the lawmakers never contemplated.
The surety must have property within
the jurisdiction of the court
A damage suit for $3.50 was fled be-
fore Justice Nielsen yesterday by
Charles NJ. Woodle against the Salt
Lake Street Railway company. Woodle
alleges that on June Z, 1898, a Second
West and Third street car, through the
negligence of the motorman, struck his
horse and wagon on Main street, be-
tween Second and Third South, throw
ing the plaintiff out and injuring his
left arm and shoulder, the damages
sustained to his property amounting to
S137.75.

Ricnfeld, Jan. 2S.-In Sewer county this
winter are thousands of head Of cattle.
and they are literally rolling fat" Those
which have. been reserved for the
market are in as prime condition as any
that ever tempted a double eagle with
silver accomplishments from the pockets
of stock buyer.
This stock is much sought after. and
Notwithstanding prices are generally
down, Sewer stock commands top prices.
Parties are buying up all that can be
obtained and feeding for better eastern
price,. \ great deal of hay was left over
from 1897, and this. with the large crop
of last year, has furnished a large sup
ply. which can be purchased for 81 per
ton. With hay so cheap. there has been
no stinting in feeding stock, and conse-
Quently they are carrying their fall con-
dition right along.
over in Wayne county neither stock nor
grain viii let go at prevailing prices, at
least s. per head more for COWS and steers
being asked. The farmers are pretty well
fixed and are holding for what they be-
lieve viii be higher spring prices.
Owing to the drought last fall the stock
in Kane county is in very poor condition,
and much of it is being bought at low
prices and brought into Sewer to be fed.
This county is a big winter stock feed
ing section and large bands can be seen
on several of the large farms.

Only Most Urgent and Most Import

Immediately after the dissolution of
the joint assembly, at 10 o'clock. the
house went into session, but the record
was made to show that the house had
convened at O'Clock.
The committee on memorials reported
a substitute for house memorial No 2,
both prepared by Representative Redd,
and recommended its passage. The
memorial prays congress to cause the
restraining of the marauding bands of
Navajo and Ute Indians who commit
depredations in San Juan county, the
only change in the substitute being a
slight modification of the language.
The substitute memorial was passed
under suspension Of the rules.
WANT FOREST RESERVE OPENED
House joint memorial No. 8. by
O'Neil, praying congress that certain
lands in Uintah county be restored to
the public domain, was referred to the
committee on memorials.
The memorial represents that under
proclamation of the president of the
United States, dated Feb. %, 1897 GER
tain portions OF the public lands sit
uate in the northeast corner of the
state of Utah were declared to be,
and thereby became. a public reserva-
ton under the act repeating the timber
culture laws.
That a portion of the area of said
reservation lies within the county of
Uintah, in said state; that said county
contained, at the time of the issuance
of such proclamation, a population of
1900 persons, and that it now has not
less than 1900; that by reason of the
contour of the county. all Of such pop
ulation resides in valleys adjoining to
Green river and its tributaries, and are
wholly dependent for water, timber,
fuel and building material, and the
necessary range for live stock, upon
the lands included within said reser-
walton; that the settlements compris-
ing all of such population were made
prior to such proclamation, and in eX-
pectation that the settlers would be
permitted the use of the timber, range
and water within said reservation;
that in order that such settlements
may continue and grow in population,
prosperity and Importance, it is abso-
lutely necessary that they should have
the free and uninterrupted use of such
reserve for all purposes incident to set
Element, and that without these priv
ileges the further growth and develop
ment of the region viii cease, and the
most of the settlements be abandoned.
BY reason of these facts the petit
TONERS ask that such executive order
of Feb. %, 1897, be so modified as to
exempt from its operation all that part
and portion of the public domain de-
scribed therein, which is included
within the boundary lines of said
Uintah county.
