ed 3 acres of land IL miles west

ton of a neat groom house on the
same. Mr.. Ketner says he IS 60
ing to try combination of town
and country life and with his small

Jack Campbell returned last
Saturday from Kansas City. He
brought back a handsome register
ed Hereford yearling bull for Ed
Harrell which he purchased at Kan
sas City. The young animal was
shipped by express and arrived
here as fresh and pretty as if he

The local denomination of the
Baptist church has matured
plans whereby they hope to
have a series ofreyival services,
beginning the first Sunday in
December. The services of Rev.
j. II. Bell, General Missionary
for the Panhandle, has been Sc
cured for these meetings, which
insureS success as tar as the
preaching of the Word is con
cerned. Bro. Bell has warm
place in the hearts of the Chris
tian people of the town and it is
predicted that he will do much
in this meeting toward the
spiritual enlightenment of those
who will go to hear him.
There are quite a number OF
Randall county farmers who
ha We already sown their fields
in wheat for winter pastures and
many more doubtless who wish
that they had followed the same
example earlier in the season
now that it is looking so we'll.
In many places the young wheat
has grown up from to 4 inches
in height and has completely
covered the surface of the soil.
This forethought on the part of
our stockfarmers will prove of
inestimable benefit to their
stock when the biting blasts of
winter has killed all other herb
age. Verify we have some
farmers who are wise in their
generation.

of the convention and second vice
president of the Fidelity Trust COM

more than others for the preservation
of the beautiful and progressive state
that it was the good fortune of the

The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1904-03-19

THE REPUBLICAN, anticipates that
a larger number of people will attend
conference at Salt Lake this spring
than ;er' before. The investigation
now going on will be an added incen-
tive to hear the great leaders OF the
church but this win not discourag e
US in the fight we are now making
for the people. II may be six months,
a year. two years before the people be-
come thoroughly awakened to the
idea that they can demand considera-
ton of the railroad and yet it, but
The REPUBLICAN, expects to keep
hammering on the subject until they
are convinced. 1t may then take an
other two years to convince them
that the quickest means of bringing
about decent cut in passenger rates
will be for them to stay away from
Salt Lake conferences a time or two.
This move can and will accomplish
the desired result and we expect
eventually to convince the people of
this.
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1904-03-19
Passes.

The acceptance of railroad passes by
the members of the State legislatures
is wrong and there should be law
prohibiting it. or rather a law max
ing it crime for legislator to accept
or use pass. BY accepting such IA
vors legislators place themselves under
obligation to the railroads, and there
are none who can doubt that the rail-
roads will and do demand great er
favor from the legislator. The legis-
latorS are the lawmakers for the peo-
pie and when they as legislators ac-
cept favorS from the railroads they
are not free agents to represent their
constituents interests when these in
terestS conflict with railroad interests.
No railroad ever made cut in freight
or passenger rates unless a state legis-
lature demanded it, but as long as
state legislators accept favors from
the railroads they are not liable to
arouse themselves in the interest of
the people and demand of the rail
roads cut in anything, even though
the rate be excessively high. Their
hands are tied with favors, and the
people who honored these gentlemen
with election, pay dearly for these
fayorS.
There is existing in Utah today a
condition that can be remcdied by
the State legislature, but it never will
be remcdicd that way until men are
sent to the legislature VINO are strong
enough and sufficiently in sympathy
with the people to refuse the allure
ments and temptations of passes dish
ed up by Utah railroads. Such matter.
as this should be discussed in county
conventions and no man either nomi'
mated or elected who refuses to abid,
by resolution demanding that he
keep himself free from all entangl
ing alliances with the enemy-th'
railroads.
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1904-03-19

The REPUBLICAN, has been shown a
Chicago paper which contains re-
port of the Logan tabernacle meeting
week or more ago, and the dispatch
winds up with the assertion that
Gentle business men in Logan are be-
ing bOycotted. This statement is in
famously false, and each paper that
prints it but spreads a lie. If general
conditions here are as the opposition
claims, then they should scorn to
make single misrepresentation
One can not help but feel that if
those who are now pushing this in
vestigation and the newspapers which
are most active in aSSaulting every
thing Mormon make such miSrepre-
sentation as they do in saying that
Gentle business men here are being
bOycottcd. their zeal will hardly per-
nit them TO report other matters
correctly.
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1904-03-19
Get Notebooks.

Prof. Clark appeared four times in
public during his stay in Logan and
his influence for good cannot be esti-
mated. but it is safe to say that less
than one-half of one per cent got the
most from his lectures. The people
went TO hear him, enjoyed his voice,
his reading, his characterization, nod
ded approvingly when he expressed a
good sentiment and all were loud in
their praise of his every effort, but
what per cent have the many good
things, the really helpful things he
said, fixed in their minds. How many
had notebooks IN which to jot down
his good suggestions, his trite sayings,
etc. II a man is worth listening to-,
his words are worth preserving, and
there are few memories keen enough
to easily remember the many good
things IA thoroughly competent man
can say in an hour or two hours.
Students, take your note books next
time: teachers do likewise: and all
others have greater need than these.
