WOULD RETAIN MRS. HUNTER.
Inmates of InfrInary Petition Com
rnissioners to That End.

Provo, Feb. lin connection with the
resignation or removal Of Mrs Hunler,
matrOn of the infirmary, the iolIoWlnS
rather pathetic document has been pre-
pared by inmates of the infirmary ana
presented to the board of county COM
missioners IT is signed by thirty-eight
tuition, and may be said to be PRAGUE
ally unanimous, as some OF those VINO
tated from having any opinion In the
matter. The petition reads:
ITO the Honorable Commissioners, CIT
Zens, Voters and Taxpayers OF Otah
''Whereas. We the undersigned inmates
of the county infirmary, feeling grleVed
that our feelings have not been consulted
in the least in regard to changing our
matrOn. now. we appeal TO you TO re-
verse sides with US. and you all take oul
side of this question. Suppose that you
had become old and infirm and were
placed as We are, and tnat you had
matrOn that YOU all liked and respected
i'm the highest degree, perhaps it may be
considered that we are presumptuouS III
making this demand or request, put II Is
a constitutional right Now we sincerely
and earnestly desire that you will care
fully reconsider your act and decide TO
retain the same matron that We now
have. We all know from our own eX-
perience just how to appreciate her great t
kindness, but that is only very small
part of our appreciation. for we fully and
personally realize that she has very many
and rare gifts, which no amount OF ar
tificial training can ever supply. NOW,
interested in this appeal, we do now,
after mature thought and deliberate IN
vestigatiOn. enter our solemn and I'M
equivocal protest. We will state further
that some of us requested our matron TO
give her sanction to this petition, but she
would not give il. She states that she
has too much pride to even wish to ac-
cept any position where she is not want
ed. Now. we do not know whether she
can be induced to stay, but we desire that
she may have the opportunity. as we de-
sire this on our own responsibility and
our own personal interests. and we do not
for one moment believe that her place
can be filled by any one.
Whether any change will be made IN
the plan Of the county board to appoint
Mrs. Stewart, or whether Mrs. Hunter
would remain if she had an opportunity.
is not known. But County Treasurer
Glazier has offered 90 appoint Miss Mary
BOshard. secretary of the WOwans Re
publican club. second deputy treasurer,
provided Mrs. Hunter is retained at the
infirmary in order to satisfy the desire
OF the WOman's Republican club for Of
fetal representation. Members of the
club worked hard for the appointment OF
Miss BOshard to some deputyShip when
the new terms of office commenced this
year. and failed to secure any prize for
the secretary. Then they centered their
energies on the matronship for the presi-
dent. An opportunity to secure an aD-
pointment for the secretary will please
but if il will please them sufficiently 10
cause any abatement in their determined
support of Mrs. Stewart cannot be fore
told. They would in all probability not
be averse to be rewarded with both Of
fices.

Who has been cured by your incidence
AWilliam Pfeiffer, Jr.
Catarrh is a systemic disease, durable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the nerve centers. This is what Peruna
does. Peruna Immediately invigorates
the nerve centers which give vitality to
the mucous membranes. Then catarrh
disappears; then it is permanently
cured.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna
write at once TO DIR. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable adj
vice gratis.

Logan. Feb. 1O.-The introduction of the

study to be taught at the Agricultural

Without the engineering and mechanic

half of the students of the institution
are now registered i'm those departments,
which are in the most flOurishing condi-
ton. and TO people here it appears to
be little short OF idiOcy to talk of remov-
ing the departments TO the university
The business men here will likely make
strong representations to the legislature
against harming the college, which will
surely be done if its courses Of indus
trial learning are disturbed. They cannot
understand how the irrigation problems
that the college is working out for the
agricultural students arc to be handled
without an efficient civil engineering de-
department. and will lend their aid to
fight the university all along the line If
ing to undermine the college.
