Utah schools are sadly in need OF
teachers, and it seems there are none

and at various places over the State

tors. Salaries range from $40 to $50 a
month, and it seems that such posi-
tions should not 90 begging.

mother and the babe were o. X.
While man may SOW and Providence
send the increase it is well to remem-
Der that Providence works with a
great deal of equity and the lazy and
shiftless man usually gets what he Is
entitled to and no more. This idea
of trusting to the Lord when one
should help himself has ruined many
man.
MIR. Charles Drury of Hyde Park, Is
suffering from severe case of blood
poisoning. Several weeks ago he cut
his limb with an axe and recently
blood poisoning developed. His con-
dition is very serious at this time and
it Is doubtful whether the best medi-
cal skill will assist him to an early re-
covery.
1t is now possible to cross tn Bal
lard slough, between Logan and
Hyrum, ON the bridge. The road has
been closed for some time on account
of repairs that are being made. 1t Is
the intention of the commissioners to
build cement arch there and spiles
have already been driven, but the
very severe weather has made 1t nee
essary to postpone the work until
spring.
The present snow storm is general
over the western country, and accord
ing to weather prognosticator HYATT
at Salt Lake, this kind of weather
will probably continue for several
days. In this city Wednesday after

The canvassing board of Logan City's
election returns cut Councilman John
Quayle's majority down to ., and now
there is some talk of a contest. Robt
Anderson, Quayle's opponent and a
defeated candidate, says he knows of
inaccuracies of some sort that will
give him the number Of votes necces-
sary TO Gust Quayle. Mr.. Quayle's
friends state that ten votes are not
counted for him as they should have
been, and they further claim that they
can meet any fight the opposition cares
to indulge in. 1t would seem that
the recent contest" on the part of
the Democrats might cause them TO
hesitate before again carrying an cleo
