Especial Correspondence
Logan, Feb. 3.-The regular meeting
Of the county commissioners occurred
today. At the morning session there
was a hot contest on between two fac
tons from Coveville, q small town in
the north end of the county. The
school district there is about five miles
in length, and one faction petiti0ned
the county court to take a small piece
off the north end and add it to Rich
Eond, and then divide the remainder
into two districts Another faction,
led by the bishopric of Coveville op-
poses this, and both sides are here in
force today to argue before the board.
At the hearing. they made things ex-
ceedingly warm, calling each other
prevaricators and alleging fraud in
conducting a school election up there.
One man claimed that this election had
been won by bringing two Richmond
people into the district to vote, while
the opposition claimed such action
justifiable in view of the fact that the
parties mentioned had not taken their
recommends" from Cove to Rich
mond. The hearing is still on at this
writing.

he has in this way avoided detection

Vernal, Jan. 31-The grand ball
which was held last night at the opera
house, in honor Of Uintah cOunty's re-
Gently returned volunteers, was a great
success The welcoming speech was
made by r c. Camp. The two SOL
der boys, Johnnie Davis and William
Britt, gave an interesting account of
their experiences. The Hanson and
Adams bands were both in attendance
and discoursed patriotic airs, while the
boys were being liOnized by friends and
relatives. The dancing continued until
the small hours of the morning. The
affair was a demonstration of the re-
spect that is felt for the nations de-
tenders.
There is considerable dissatisfaction
among wOol-grCwers over the action
Of the state board of equalization in
recommending that the assessors raise
the valuations on sheep to $3.50 per
head. 1t is eOntended that sheep at
$3.50 and range cattle at s13 are not in
proportiOn-that sheep are too high or
cattle too low.
The indications are that Uintah
county viii go over the million mark
in assessed valuation the present year

Capt. Symons was confirmed in

conceded now that Mr.. f. McC, Brown

secured the endorsement of the local
republican committee, the Eleventh
district and the state committee and
