Some time since Auditor Harding
and the Commissioners succeeded in
establishing county depository
where the idle money of the county
could be deposited and draw interest.
The first six months has just ended
and the interest ON deposits amounted
to the neat sum of $3,653. This
amount will go great way toward
paying the Auditors salary, and to
him is due, largely, the credit of this
new and sensible business method.

Rev. DIR. Brother Wilbur F. Crafts
is in trouble. He took the stump last
week and advocated the expulsion of
Utah from the Union. Whereupon
officers of the law called his attention
to the fact that he had rendered him
self amenable to severe punishment
by sending out under some Congress-
mans frank more than million let
ters, defrauding the Government of
a large amount. The reform Bureau
is now up against it, and should be
heard from.
