CAUSE AND EFFECT.
Oregon Short Line Reaping the Re
suit of JuQicious Advertising.

It is we'll known that there has been
for some months past a big migration
from the middle states to Snake river
valley, Idaho, on the part of trainloads
of homeseekers. With the opening UP
of spring this movement is daily be-
coming more marked and the Oregon
Short Line is being taxed to the limit
in order to successfully handle the daily
crowd of colonists that passes over the
road.
This gratifying state of affairs is d.
rectly attributed to the energy Of Gen
eral Passenger Agent D. E. Burley Of
the Short Line, who has been quietly
advertising the resources of Snake
river valley throughout the country. To
the general public, that has no cog
nizance of the scope of the work of this
character, it may be interesting to
note the direct results from judicious
newspaper advertising. An idea of the
far-reaching plan which Mr.. Burley- has
now under way may be obtained when
il is stated that the Short Line has
placed contrasts for articles embracing
space from the short reader all the
way down to a column in length, for
publication in 2,723 weekly and semi
weekly newspapers in the states Of
Colorado, Nebraska. Kansas, Missouri
Iowa, North and South Dakota, Ohio,
Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Indian Territory and Okla
homa.

CELEBRATE THE ANNIVERSARY
OF THEIR ORDER.
Interesting Programme Given Last
Night in Federation Of Labor
Hall.

The fifty-second anniversary OF mod
ern spiritualism was celebrated at the
Federation Of Labor hall last night. On
the platform were Thomas Griffith, the
president of the Spiritualistic associa-
ton of Salt Lake City and Mesdames
Ward, Miner and Thomson and Miss
Hazel Earl, all ordained ministers Of
the association. The evenings pro
gramme consisted Of addresses, recita-
tons and music in the form of vocal
and instrumental numbers. Refresh
ments were served during the evening.
The large hall was almost filled with
people, and evidently spiritualism has
taken hold IN this city. The invoca-
ton was delivered by Mrs. Miner.
Mrs. Ward was the next speaker She
started in with an apology. She did
not know that in her normal condition
she would be able to interest those
present. But she made a neat little
speech just the same. She spoke of
the reformers of the past who had
sowed with their blood and watered
with their tears the harvest which the
spiT.itualistS of TODAY were reaping.
They had given new thought to the
world. there were legions Of spirits
coming to the earth every day and Civ
ing their expressions.
Every temple that is built by human
hands" said she. ''only inpoverishes
the soul. L would say TO you all try
and be spiritualists in everything" In

TITLE SUIT DECIDED.
Lower Court Affirmed in the Smith
Gases.

An opinion was handed down by the
supreme court yesterday. in which two
suits were combined, the Judgment of
the trial court being affirmed. with
costs. The opinion is written by Chiet
Justice Bartch, and concuTed in by
Judges Miner and Baskin.
The suits are entitled Robert h.
Smith VS.. r. II Jones ct al, appel
lants, and Robert X. Smith vs. j. Il.
Forbes ct al. appellants. In each OF
the cases action was brought 10 quiet
title in the plaintiff to an undivided
one-fifrh interest in the surface of cer-
tain land in Bingham county, and Tor
its partition. The plaintiff introduced
in evidence a patent from the United
States dated July so, 1881, and issued
TO the plaintiff. Thomas Gibbons, John
Mcclure and the heirs of William CID
bons. for the Mcclure & Co.'S placer
mining claim.
The premises described in the COM
plain were included in the patent,
which conveyed to the plaintiff an IN
divided one-fifth thereof. The DEFEND
ants introduced in evidence an agree
ment dated Oc,-.17, 1877, in which the
plaintiff agreed TO convey Dy Qu~--
claim deed to John Mcclure and others
his one-ffth interest in q certain drain
ditch for $500 cash, and for the further
sum of $4,000, to be paid to him from
the proceeds of the ore, gold dust or
minerals taken therefrom, it being I'M
derstood that the defendants We're not
entitled to sell or quit their interest
until the agreement was fully sansfled
or by consent of the plainUn or MS
legal representative.
The trial court found that the plain
tiff is the owner of one-tifth interest
in the land, as tenant, in common with
the owners of the balance, and entered
a decree to that effect 1t also agreed
that the land be partitioned.
Chief Bartch considers that the APP
pellant's contention that the court
erred in holding that the contract in
troduced in evidence by the defense
did not constitute a covenant running
with the land was not we'll rounded
The contract was merely an option TO
purchase with a license to extract min
era1 from the land, and the prospective
grantees under its terms could neither
sell nor assign their interest without
the grantor's consent until they had
performed all the conditions and De-
come entitled to the deed.

Clover Leaf Road Accused Of Dabbl-
ing in Rebates.

Los Angeles, Cal, March 31-The tes-
timony of E. Earl, president Of the Earl
Fruit company, and the Continental
Fruit exchange, closed the session IN
this city of the interstate commerce
commission. Earl was led to admit that
he has paid rebates TO the shippers Of
citrus fruits. He was put through
rigid questioning by the commission
ers as to the source from which the
money came which enabled him to pay
the rebates, and he stated that he re-
Ceived a mileage generally from the
eastern roads of q of a cent, and in
certain cases where there was a keen
rivalry between the roads they had
made him special allowances, though
this never came in the form of what he
called rebates, but as additional mile
age allowance. He could not remember
any of the roads which had made such
allowances except the Glover Leaf line
Acting President Clements protested
against leaving this road to stand the
brunt of making the allowance alone,
when the testimony showed that many
eastern roads must have made similar
alloWanL IS.
