The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1903-05-26

There is considerable talk on the
streets relative to the railroad fare 10
the Roosevelt reception in Salt Lake
city being $3.50 while the fare from
Salt Lake City to Logan for the Sean
dinayian gathering will be but $500.
This is due to the fact that the tickets
for the latter are for shorter period
than the former. However, some
people i'm this county claim that II
the railroad company would further
reduce its rates to Salt Lake city, twice
or three times the number would
travel The fare paid to Salt Lake
and the incidental expenses attached
to the trip reach beyond the size OF
the purse of many of the people.
We can compete with any>dealer in
the L. S. on high or medium grade
pianos. This is not a/boast but a
plain truth stated i'm terse language,
based upon the following facts:
We ship in carload lots.
We pay cash for our pianos before
they leave the factory.
The expenses of our store are as
moderate as any in the country.

From private letters just received
from the North we gather that the
recent storms have played havoc in
that country. On last Thursday. May
2lst the snow in Cardston was two
and half feet deep on the level. The
drifts were from eight to twelve feet
deep. At that date the amount of
damage to the stOckmen could not be
estimated. The communication stated
that it would be terrific. 1t is the
worst storm that was ever known in
that country for the season of the
year. The storm was followed by a
freezing snap, the thermometer going
| five below zero. 1t will be wonder
If this does not nearly ruin some Of
the stOckmen in that locality.
Seventy children will take part in
the carnival Of dancing to be given at
the opera house on Tuesday evening,
June End. They are of all ages, from
the little tots who present Fairy
Ballet, dressed in the traditional
costume of the "premire danseuse" to
the big girls who go through the
military figures of the Red Hussar
| dill mill tel,
country dance given by sixteen mer-
~ maids in caps and aprons. The
dance of the sleepy heads, and the
mischievous Bogies is suggested by the
saying that the "Bogie man will git
we If we don't watch out" A lively
cake-walk will follow the Minuet of
our grand-fathers. Miss. Ingraham,
who is training the children, has
studied under the best masters in
New York and Boston, and she ar
ranges all the dances she uses. She
will, in the course of the evening,
give Russian Mazourka, dance of a
particularly animated character. A
performance of this kind has never
been given here and it behooves all
those who admire dancing in any
form to be present
If the city council has been laboring
under the impression that there will
be no kick coming from the residents

property it is proposed to lay sidewalks

jections to the proposed Improvements
and it S evident that there will be "a
hot time in the old town" that night.
The proposed improvement south Of
Main street runs three blocks west from
1st West street, and the people down
there can find no reason for not con.
tinuing the same to the O. S. l.. sta
ton, for that is the one end to be de-
sired. "Why did the council choose
to cut of the last two squares on the
end of the street" is the question that
has aroused the natives in that end of
town, and they proposed to have a
satisfactory answer. n canvass OF the
, property-holders along the four blocks
shows that the matter will be fought
by everyone with the exception of j.
r. Edwards, Mrs. Phillips and possibly
Mrs. Robinson, and these three are
such hopeless minority that the mat
ter cannot go through, unless there is
decided change in sentiment before
June 3rd. There are those along the
street who feel that they can lily af-
ford to make the outlay necessary foi
