The very prettiest newspaper ever
printed in salt Lake City was the
Christmas edition of the Deseret Even
ing News, which appeared on Satur-
day last. Every one of the ninety-two
PAGES coatlsned something Of interest.
A handsomer collection of pictures has
never been seen here and the matter
accompanying them is worth careful
attention and study. The News has
made a practice FOR some years Of get
ting out Christmas editions of extra
ordinary merit, but this year it has far
surpassed all of its previous efforts.
The Herald congratulates it's contem-
porory and 1t congratulates also the
public which is served i'm so enterpris-
ing and so able a manner.

THE SECRET OUT.
A Mysterious Buggy and its Mission
How it Left Town.

"A buggy was driven stea1thi1yout
of town Monday afternoon, headed
south. It's movements were so
mysterious that people acquainted
with the facts specu1ated euits mis-
sion. The two occupants, who sat 81
1entand straight, glanced neitk1Afo-
the right nor the left. Each wore a
solemn look and the pair nighthave
been mistaken for a couple Of
preachers en- route to a camp meet
ing. There were other circumstan-
ees that suggested they might be "a
pair of sharpers, travelling about
the country with skin game.
Questions asked them before they
left were answered very briefly and
unsatisfactory.
@ Neither looked like a married
man, though either seemed old en-
ough. Certain well known ear
marks indicative of the married sta
te were absent. The chief of police
did not modest them, and it was
just as well. Their errand was
harmless. One carried marriage
license in his pocket. The other
went along as a sort of body guafd
to keep the boogers off his friend.
The pair were George Hornirg
and Henry w Wortham. The question
of which is to be the groom makes
the mystery more complete. It Us
certain that both their hearts have
flip-aopped many a time. They
wont be back until tonight or to-
morrow. Meantime it is: known
that Henry paid for the license.
Unfortunately however, for him,
the records at the clerks Office ne
late that the document authorized
George Horning and Miss Frances
Rickard to wed. Where and when
the event happens is not known
here. The TIMES congratulates
George and condoles with Henry.

county, while she paid about one
third of the state taxes, was rarely
if ever at the door of the legislature
asking for an appropriation, and
that on this account, he was dis
posed to regard the present app1i-
cation with more than usual favor.
He thought some benefit would ac-
crue to all the state as a result of
the appropriation. He thought,
however, that about one-half the
sum asked for, would be sufficient.
The columns of the TIMES are
,oorren orn for discussion of this subject.
Views on either side will wI ) BE cheer
fully published, The end that
can thus be gained is that a gener-
al view of the question may be OBJ
tanned, and education Oh the sub.
ject result.

COMMITTEE COMING
To Investigate Carriage Business and
Carriage Making Plant.


F. G. Smith, F. NJ, Wilkins and
WI. Gilstrap, Eugene citizens,
were expected in Corvallis yester-
day afternoon to make an exam
=ination of the plant and stock of
the Cramer Carriage Factory.
They are the members of COM
mittee appointed by Eugene people
at meeting last week, at which
the proposition Of a removal Of the
factory to that place was under
consideration. R. M. Cramer of
the local firm was present at the
meeting. He returned from Eu-
gene last Friday. He explains
that the requirements in the way of
capital for conducting both an or
gan and carriage business are
more than his firm could supply.
He prefers rather to use all the
firms capital in the organ business
and push that department than to
attempt to handle both. He has en-
deavored to enlist Corvallis capital
in the carriage business but has
been unable so far, to do so.
At Eugene, Mr. Cramer made a
proposition to the people by which
the latter may ultimately acquire
control of the carriage department
of the local factory. A meeting
at which the matter was discussed
was largely attended and much en-.
thusiasm was manifest, The or
ganization of a company with a
capital of $4,000 to $4,000 was
discussed, The outcome was the
appointment of the committee above
named to visit the works, for the
purpose of making a subsequent
report to the Eugene investors.
It is understood that the plan is
to continue operation of the plant
in Corvallis this year, but in the
fall to effect a removal Of, about
two.ffths of the building and all
carriage-making machinery to Eu-
gene. It is supposed that much
will depend on the report to be
made by the committee to the Eu-
gene Commercial Club with which
the cramers are negotiating. Ample
capital is said to be available if
conditions appear favorable. Cor
Wallis ought to keep this factory at
her own door.

NEARLY TEN MILLS
For School Purposes-That is tax Corr
vallisites Must pay.

y
The Corvallis taxpayers viii have
a heavy tax to pay this year. A
special tax of nine and half mills
for school purposes will be feature
of the condition. It looks now as
if the resident of the town will have
to pay a tax of 42to As mills.
+ Monday there was vote with
reference to a special school levy.
The result was the adoption of
propositions aggfegating seven
and one-half mill levy, and with two
additional mills to pay of an out
standing bond and interest, the levy
for the schools, will be nine and a
half.
Only II votes were cast Monday.
The result was:
1st.-Five mill tax for payment
of teachers and janitor's salaries,
for, IS; against, 2.
2nd.-Two mill tax for payment
for sewer, water closets and plumb:
ing, for, "a; against, 8.
