A Little To Do About something

Our county papers, the Herald
and the New Era, seem to have
been considerably Jared by the ar
ticle in last weeks Gazette on the
cOunty's finances. Both papers
enter hasty plea of not guilty,
but their evidence does not sustain
the plea. Our esteemed centcmpo-
rary the Herald, seeks TO avoid res
possibility by referring to an ar
ticle by Commissioned VoSt. pub
lished in its issue of Feb. IA, in
which Mr.. Vogt family intimotss
that money has been borrowed by
the county on notes executed by
the treasurer on order of the COM
mission ers court. Yet this does
not clear the Herald's skirts, for
the fact still remains, that although
the Herald claims TO publish in
full the proceedings of the COM
missiUnsr's court. yet it signally
failed 10 make any mention Of the
courts action in regard to borrow
ing money, and never once re-
ferred to the county attorneys
opinion denying the right of the
court to do so.
Brother Moitzen of the New Era
seeks to avoid the issue BY quoting
Shakespeare, and says it is Much
Ado About Nothing" and yot he
admits in tho same breath that
Judge kennon had chilled The grand
jury's attention to the matter. ThC
New Era goes on TO say that this
illegal borrowing Of money WAS 1ul
the best interests of the county. A
violation Of the law, brother, can
never be for the beat interests OF
anything. Whether it was the do,
sire CT our county seat papers tc
keep this matter from the pablo
eye. the Gazette will not presume
to say, but will leave tho tax payers
to Judge for Themselves.

A, Amateur s.vnnt Fooled.

The stories are common enough OF

hand, IL has not seldom happened that
a very mundane contiagration has
passed muster for celestial dis

moirs of Baron Stockmar an amusing
anecdote is related of one Herr Won
Radowitz, who was given to making
the most of easily picked up informa-
ton. A friend OF the baron's went to
an evening party near Frankfort,
where he expected to meet Herr Won
Radowitz. On his way he saw barn
burning, stopped his carriage, assisted
the people. and waited till the flames
were nearly extinguished. When he
arrived at his friends house, he found
Herr Won Rahowitz, who had previously
taken the party to the top of the
building, 70 see an aurora, di,ating on
terrestrial magnetism, electricity, etc.
Radowitz asked Stockmar's friend:
"Have you seen the beautiful aurora
borealis?" He replied: "Certainly; |
was there myself; it will soon be over"
An explanation followed as to the barn
on fire. Rado-t%s was silent some ten
minutes. then he took up his hat and
quietly disappeared.

TAKING THE TIME AT NOON.
All Businsss of the Western Unios
Company stops for Three
Minutes Daily.

just before II o'clock each day all
business must be taken off the wires
controlled by the Western Union com
pany, and that means the absolute
cessation OF bus iess along the main
lines OF electric communication in the
principal cities of America. says Pear
sons Magazine. Three minutes before
noon wire chiefs in each OF the prin-
cipal cities and the towns and cities
leading to and from their large sis
ters cease sending or receiving nes-
sagcs, no matter how important they
may be, and devote themselves to
switching on wires in such a way as
to make an unbroken circuit OF COM
munication from Washington around
the uttermost boundaries OF the
United States. This IS called an "un-
broken national circuit" Thus a
smooth track is made along which the
electric message may fash encom-
passing the union and announcing the
time Of day. Ten seconds before the
time bell strikes comes another ST.
lence, and then mighty throb. q
titanic heartbeat from the foremost
factor in modern commerce, and an
electric current pulsates from the At
lantic to the Pacific, from Gotham TO
the golden gate, announcing the fact
that the sun has passed over the
seventy-ffth meridian and il is noon

MORMON EXPLORING PARTY.
Set out 20 Fiad In Central America
Ruis verinestion Of the
hook of Mormon.

One OF the most remarkable expedi-
tions for antiquarian research which
have set out for some time is composed
Of a party OF NJ mon students which
left Graham county, A. T., few days
ago, for a three years trip through
Central and South America. In the
party are "a men from the Brigham
Young academy, in Provo. Utah, includ-
ing President Benjamin Cluf and two
professors. Their object is 10 explore
the country and its resources while
searching for traces OF the last surviv-
ors OF the Nephites, says local report.
The Mormon theory on which the ex-
pedition is bNsed. as advanced by lead
ers OF the party, is this: About 600 B.
c., Lehi and his family, accompanied by
Ishmael and his family. left Jerusalem
and went into the wilderness.
After 70 years OF wandering they
built boats and sailed toward the con-
tinent, landing where Chilli now is.
Eephi and Lamar were two OF Lehi's
sons. Nephi wss beautiful and obedi-
ent IAman the reverse. Each had
many followers who married and in
termarried until they numbered many
Thousands. and built many large cities
In what 10 now the northern part OF
South and Central America, Mexico and
southern Arizona and New Mexico.
The two factions waged war for many
years, according to the Mormon theory,
until, eventually, about 400 A. d., the
Nephites were entirely exterminated
by the Lamanitcs. From the latter
the American Indians are descended.
Naroni, the last surviving Nephite,
buried the records OF his people, writ
ten on brass plate, in the hill
"Cumorah," in the state OF New York,
and the angel Maroni revealed these
plates 10 Joseph Smith. The transla-
ton of these constitute the Book of
Mormon.
The Provo expedition hopes to find
in the ruins OF Central and Southern
American cities evidence that they
were built by the descendants Of Lthi
and thus give to the world proof that
the Book OF Mormon is what the Lat
ter Day Saints assert il to be-a true
history OF the people who inhabited
this continent years ago.
