DECISION IN FARNswORH CASE.

At st. Louis on Monday last the
United States Court of Appeals sus-
tanned the decision of the Utah
Court il Doth counts Of the ease of
the Nevada Company against P. t.
Farnsworth, who, while in the en-
ploy of the plaintiffs, purchased min
ing properties in the vicinity of Ans
tin, this State and transferred them
to his company at an immense profit.
On one count the company secured
q judgment against Farnsworth for
ST., 1922. IA, and on the other count,
in which they sued for $41, $50 the
verdict was in favor of Farnsworth.
The Court of Appeals sustains both
of these decisions. holding that in
n instance the defendant acted as
the agent of the Nevada Company,
and therefore was prohibited from
making q profit in his deals for the
company, while in the other case it
was held he acted in an individual
capacity.

THE SCHOOL ELECTION.
Two school Trustees to he Elected
In Eureka This Month.

Two school Trustees TO BE Elected
In Eureka This Month.
On Monday, the 2Sth of this month.
will occur the regular school election for
the choosing Of school trustees in the sew
eral districts throughout the State. In
Eureka the terms of Henry Kind and X.
J. Reid expire this year, and it is under.
stood both these gentlemen will refuse
to become candidates for reelection. In
the selection Of their successors great
care should be taken, and the people
should see to it that the positions on the
school board be filled by capable and en-
ergetic men, who have the best interests
of the school ct heart, and who will be
willing TO contribute to the work the
care and attention which ID demands.
The people of Eureka have always
taken a just pride in their public school,
and are willing to pay literally for its
maintenance. They should demand,
therefore, the best possible returns for
the money expended, and this can only
be secured by electing capable men on
the Board Of School Trustees.
To be sure there is nothing in the Of
fee, in g pecuniary sense, to warrant any
person in seeking it, but it is 3 duty all
citizens owe to posterity to guard the in
terests Of the schools, and any gentleman
who may be selected to the position OF
| School Trustee may we'll consider it an
honor. In this capacity ct least it may
be truly said "Public Office is q public
trust" and no citizen can devote his time
and talent to q better cause.
As to the qualification of voters at
school elections the following section Of
the State law may be of interest:
SECTION 6.-No person shall be al
lowed to vote at any school election un-
less he is a resident Of the district and
his name appears upon the official regis
try list OF the voting precinct or precincts
including the district. for the last pre-
oeding general election; provided that
any citizen Of the United States who
shall have resided in this State six
months, and in the school district thirty
days next preceding the day of election
and whose name is not upon the said Of
fetal registry list, may apply to the Clerk
OF the Board of School Trustees, or to q
person authorized by the Trustees Of the
District to act as Registry Agent, not
more than eight nor less than Eve days
prior to the day Of election to have his
name registered.

That copper properties will be in
still greater demand from this time
forth is indicated by the report of
Bradstreets Commercial Agency. 1t
says "There is a steady increase in
consumption and a failing in some
sources of supply, which makes the
accumulation of a large stock impos-
sible. The progress of electrical de-
velopment is still the chiefest factor,
but ship building is consuming more
and more of the metal. and if the
electre-plating of steel ships becomes
the rule, it is not possible to esti'
mate the enormous amounts that will

Between o and o Miners Lose
Their Lives az scofeid, Utah.

Their Lives as scoHeld, Utah.
The most appalling catastrophe that
has eyer overtaken the Western min
ing States is that which occurred at
Scofeld, Utah, on Tuesday Of this
week. The No. 4 mine of the Pleasant
Valley Coal Company located at that
place had been used as a powder mag
azine, and shortly after the day shift
had gone to work the magazine *
ploded. How the accident occurred
is not known and probably never will
be, as not a survivor remains to re-
count what transpired under ground
on that fateful morning.
Late reports show the catastrophe to
be even worse than at first reported.
There were between 800 and 400 men
employed in the No. l and No. 4
mines, which were connected, and it
is known that about all of them lost
their lives. Nearly all OF the employees
were married men, and the anguish Of
the surviving wives and children is
sgonizing in the extreme.
AS the work OF the rescuing party
progresses il is found that the bodies
OF the men employed in the No. 4 mine
are badly mutilated, while those in the
No. l died from suffocation.
The sympathy of the entire country
goes out to the families OF the dead
miners, and in the effort to provide for
their future welfare all charitably dis
posed persons should contribute to the
extent of their ability.
