to Granite and Lawton. Through the

here pay little attention to such rumors
and don't care whether they are founded
on truth or fiction, knowing that the fu.

So far as this extension Is concerned.
the truth Is that II nothing happens with.

or fifteen miles out towards Clifford,

timber land, which they want for their
saw mill at South Baker. The interior
department Of the general government
has instituted proceedings against Presi.

Utah. Many reports are current here
that special agents OF the general land
Office have been here for weeks past

have not yet been issued. The road will
not be built even that far unless titles to
these lands are secured.
