A Worthy Enterprise.

The Mutual Improvement Associ
atoms and the L. D. S. Ward Choir
have just installed fine new piano
in the uptown meeting house. which
supplies a long felt need in this line.
The instrument in question is a
high grade "Mathushek' from the
musical parIor of Thor C. Nielsen,
who makes 1t at cost price for this
public purpose.
The first grand benefit for the
new piano will be the NJ. /. A. Ball.
Wednesday, Dec. 2srd, at which
the young ladies will serve lunch
and refreshments. We bespeak for
this and all such laudible enterprises.

The republican press of the state
are bitterly attacking Auditor Turn
er, for the stand he has taken in
determining to have the legality of
the sugar bounty law passed upon
by the supreme court. In this the
Idaho papers are supported by the
Deseret News. The reason for the
latter's stand is obvious. The com.
pany Is largely made up of high
church officials. and the News
thinks it is perfectly proper for this
state TO DC held up because of tho
ownership of the sugar stock.
The excuse offered by the statk
papers Is that it is breaking faith'A
with the sugar barons to deny them
THIS bounty. They practically say
turner should order the warrants
paid, even If the law is unconstitu-
tional, because the states honor 10
at stake. What reasoning? The
law is steal pure and simple passed
expressly for the benefit of Utah
people, and we believe too that it is
unconstitutional. If the Minnesota
supreme court decision is followed
by Idaho, the bounty grafters will
get no cash from Idaho's treasury.
we are making Utah rich fast
enough without this latest graft.

It seems the Examiner was in err
ror last week when it stated that
the price of coal had been restored
10 the old rate of So. 90 a ton in the
city. The dealers inform us that
their coal costs them so cents a ton
more than formerly and until the
company reduces the price, it will
remain at s.. 80 per ton.
1t looks pretty blue for the con
sumner. With coal fields only rs
miles away and coal SIS, SO ton, it
is little short of highway robbery
to say the least, but there seems to
be no relief.

A Battle Royal.

A special from Washington says
the present fight on wooley is the
result of long standing feud be-
tween the Bulge and Rich factions
OF the church, on being headed by
Pres. Bulge of this county, and the
other by Pres. Ben Rich of the
Southern States Mission. Wooley
is a son-in-law of Pres. Bulge. Up
to-date the latter has had the best of
argument. His son ALT having de-
feated J. G. Rich for the district
judgeship, and Wooley, to date,
hasn't been rejected on hiss appoint
ment as assayer.
The date of the controversy be-
gins with the time apostle Rich,
father of Ben, Joe, Sam and 40 or
SO other Rich boys, was a member
Of the twelve. The Rich family,
however, are becoming more power
full every year, as nearly all of the
apostles sons and daughters now
have families who are old enough to
vote, and they are scattered over
wide territory. In this county none
of the Rich's except Mrs. Pugmire,
were ever defeated for office. and
they have always been looked upon
as exceedingly strong men and
woman, both in the point of ability
and in personal followings. There
is probability that these giants
will again meet IN political ARRAY in
this county, as some of the strongest
members of the dem ocratic party
here are connected with, or one of.
the rich family, as for example J. C.
Rich, Ed Pugmire, Ed Rich and SO
on. Pres. Bulge is undoubtly the
strongest republican in Bear Lake.
while his family connections are all
strong and aggressive political fight
ers Among these are such men as
ALT, Arthur and Jesse Bulge, Wal
ter Hodge, and so forth. These.
too, have been uniformly successful
in polltica! combats
Thus it is that Bear Lake will
become the battle ground, on which
the supremacy of one or the other.
politically, will be determined. It
goes with saying that the contest
will be royal one.

PASSING OF A PIONEER.
w. T. Raymond, who Came to Harri
son County in 1854 is Dead

Missouri Valley, June 20.-W. T.
Raymond, one of the oldest settlers of
Harrison county, and the Missouri VAL
ley, died yesterday, aged so years. He
came tc this county in 1855 from Con-
necticut and at once assumed an active
part in the affairs of the county, calling
it's first democratic convention in 1857
at Magnolia. He was a typical New
Englnnder, yet met all the hardships
incident to pioneer life with cour-
age and a fortitude peculiar to the
times. He held many minor offices, be-
ing mary years justice of the peace.
Two sons and daughter died before
him, and only his wife survives. He
will he buried with Masonic honors at
Magnolia today.
