tnse feeling has been aroused in Og-
den over 1t and there are some Ogden
its In Salt Lake who say that matters
are very serious indeed ana hint that

ing $4,000 was rendered against the

Off the water Of those delinquent In the
payment of rentals, and that without
these payments the said company can
not meet the interest due on 100000 Of
