this time. The enrolment is 2,051, an
increase of about 20 per cent. There
are now thirty-five schools in the eoun-
ty and about sixty rooms. Thirty-one
Of the school buildings are owned by
the county and four are rented The
| schools have eight grades, and at
Huntsville a high school department
partment an entrance fee of S. is
charged, and 1t has an enrolment Of
between fifteen and twenty. Perhaps
the most important event during the
past year was when the different school
districts were consolidated into one
district, which occurred July 5. Before
the consolidation there were forty
eight trustees, and each school district
was run upon a different set Of ideas
but when the new consolidated district
was formed and the county board Of
education took charge decided advan-
tage became apparent through having
all things uniform. The new board
| meets once each week when reports
from all the different sections of the
county are received and all troubles
adjusted. In this way higher stand
ard OF work is being turned out than
ever before. Through the consolidation
in purchasing school supplies alone, IN
other departments.
The amount of $3.50 per month is
paid out for teachers salaries, and the
janitors' salaries each month reach
1885. The members of the board of ed
ucation receive 800 per annum for
their services. The county tax for
school purposes at this time amounts
to DO mills, and the amount received
for school purposes during 1905 was IN
the sum OF $2S, 615. Under the old sys-
tenn prior to the consolidation each dis
trict levied its own tax according to
the needs OF the district, and the levy
varsed from to 10 mills in the differ
ent districts. Now the levy is made by
the county commissioners and is made
uniform. The revenue from the state
and county tax would bring the
amount of tax money received for
| school purposes up to about $4,000 dur
ing the school year. The members Of
the board of education for 1905 were
Frank Stratford, president; ]. B. Car

however, when compared with the great
acreage that would be benefited by the
irrigation that would be had for the
lands in the Salt Lake valley.
Will Build Salt Refinery.
The Association Salt company has
decided to build a refinery at Promon-
tory point, on the line of the South
ern Pacific railroad a short distance
from ogden on the Great Salt lake
The building of this refinery calls for
an outlay of about $4,000. Wright
& Sons are planning a large addition
to the largest department store in
ogden and when completed they will
concentrate their business, which is at
the present time carried on in four
stores, TO the main building. For this
purpose the upper stories Of the struc-
ture will be brought into use and two
elevators will be installed.
All Churches Prosper.
The Ogden churches have been keep
ing pace with the progress Of the city
and. in addition to a number of i'm
provements added to the different edi-
fees. two new churches are under con-
temptation. The Germans of the city
are perfeeting arrangements for the
building of a German Evangelical
church. At the same time efforts are
under way for securing funds to build
an African Episcopal church.
The followers of the Church of Je-
sus Christ of Latter-day Saints have
decided that the city has outgrown the
present Mormon tabernacle and are at
this time considering plans for the
building of much larger edif1ce, which
will be erected in the center of the
Tabernacle square.

Schools Make Fine Record.

Schools Make Fine Record.
Both the city and county schools
have kept pace With the progress of
the times. the number of children in
attendance being augmented each year,
necessitating an increase in school ae-
commodations. In the past ten years
the Ogden City schools have advanced
from seven small buildings, with sew
enteen rooms, owned by the district,
and twelve additional rooms rented,
until today the school district Of the
city owns twelve new modern build
fngs, representing one hundred and ten
rooms. No rooms are rented and all
the small and insanitary buildings
have been abolished. There are at the
present time S.2SS children of school
age in the city-almost double the
number ten years ago. The last re-
port of the year 1905 shows that of this
number 4,500 are enrolled IN the
schools. The Ogden High school has
made marked Improvement during the
past few years until today II stands
forth as one of the most complete and
up-to-date institutions in the state. II
has an enrolment OF something over
400. The number Of teachers employed
In the city is 100. and the average num-
Der Of pupils per class room. ~.
The revenues for the year 1905 will
reach about $125, 600. Since 1890 over
s.. 900 900 has been expended on the
public schools of Ogden. The city tax
for school purposes ct the present
time amounts to Ts2 mills. -Four kin
dergartens have been established in
as many different school buildings, In
accordance with the act passed by the
legislature in 1902, and more kinder
gartens will be placed IN other build
ings this year. In recognition of the
school work of Ogden, at the Portland
exposition a gold medal was received
for work III elementary education and
also for High school work.
The present members OF the board
Of education are: DR.. r. 8. Joyce,
president; Henry w. Civilian, vice
president; DR.. e. NJ. Conroy, II. H
Thomas and Asael Farr; William Alli-
son, superintendent; E. S. Rolapp,
clerk, and James F. Burton, treas
urer.
The one sad feature In connection
with the school system during the year
just closed was the death OF the late
Judge Thomas D. Dee, who was at the
time OF his demise president Of the
board of education. Mr.. Dee was the
most prominent figure In the history
OF the schools of Ogden, having been
connected with them In different ca
pacities for over twenty-five years.

Beauties of Ogden Canyon.

One OF Americas wonders, that Og-
den and Weber county lay claim to,
Is the famous Ogden canyon, which is
worthy of much note for it's beauty
and splendor. Each year finds the
number of visitors to this place in
creasing, and although but little ad-
vertised, its future is bright and it is
destined to be in the front rank Of the
wonders of the world This canyon
is a splendid specimen of the finished
work which nature reveals. For CEN
turtles the waters and other elements
that have been wearing and grinding
away upon the rocky walls and bar
riers Of the range. In time the chan
mel was made and the waters of the
Ogden river now wind their way
through one of the richest valleys OF
the country to the Great Salt Lake
Those who once visit the scenes of
beauty in the canyon, herald it
throughout the land.
Recognizing this fact as we'll as the
fact that its destiny among the Won
Gers CT the country is assured, one of
the largest and best equipped hotels in
the state has been erected by W. G..
Wilson, and is known as the New
Hermitage, the doors Of which were
thrown open during 1905. Already two
electric lines are under contemplation,
by which visitors will be enabled TO
reach the mouth of the canyon within
short time. A new company known
as the Canyon Resort company. has

Of which point toward the betterment
or the institution. On Nov. l, 1905, the
resignation of E. NJ. Allison, sr., be-
came. effective, and on that date H. H.
Thomas was installed as superinten-
dent and w. E. Kneass as assistant.
The new officers at once inaugurated
many changes IN the conduct of affairs
and all have been for the greater con
venience Of officers and instructors, the
better control and training of the in
mates. and for the more systematic
administration of affairs In general. a
daily detail table has been formulated,
covering each week what is changed
to suit the ensuing week each Satur-
day. This system eliminates any con-
fusion in connection with giving out
details and at the same time shows
who is responsible for the control. care
and training Of each inmate. A daily
routine card which gives the pro
gTamme Of work and training each day
has also been inaugurated. This card
Is made up on a military order. being
the handiwork of the assistant super
intendent, who is also captain Of COM
pany B, Utah national guard. A print
ing plant has been installed and the
printing trade is taught the boys, and
the printing for the school is thus
turned out A number Of other i'm
provements have been inaugurated and
several new buildings added.
Care of Deaf, Dumb and Blind.
The State School for the Deaf, Dumb
and Blind is also located at Ogden.
During 1905 number of new buildings
were erected in connection with this
Institution. including a handsome resi-
dence for Superintendent F. NJ. briggs.
This school, which draws patronage
from Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Ne
gada, has an attendance at the present
time of 125 pupils in the deaf and
blind departments These students are
taught to read and write, also various
trades at which many are very apt.
The work displayed last year from the
manual training and domestic arts de-
partments at the exposition at Port
land received the highest praise, and
the live exhibit proved a wonder 70 the
many people who visited the fair. Sew
eral medals and other honors were re-
ceived by the school for this exhibit.

effect. My knowledge OF the council con-
vinces me that the majority of them are
good, honest men, who intend to do what
is right. II may be that two or three of
them have fixed opinions on the telephone
question, and 1t may also be that we cannot
convince them that the question should be
submitted TO the people for an expression
OF their Judgment. I believe, however. that

FIRE BEATS MAYOR TO IT

LATTER PARTLY SECURED IN OMAHA
while Chief Executive Comes to
States for Fire Fighting Plant
BlaEes Destroy His
store Buildings.

It is a peculiar circumstance that while
on a trip to the United States to buy fire
apparatus and contract for a water plant
for the city of Nome, Alaska, Mayor King
of that faraway place has been called from
Omaha to return on account of telegram
announcing a disastrous fire at Nome, in
which fire Mr.. Kings grocery store was
totally destroyed. Mayor King is now on his
way to Nome. He was in Omaha visit
ing his wife and daughter, who are unable
to stand the Alaskan climate.
Inasmuch as there Is no fire protection in
Nome no fire insurance is carried, which
means Mayor Kings loss is considerable.
The installation of a city water plant at
Nome means that steam pipes must be
placed alongside the water pipes to
keep the water from congealing. The pipes
are placed under the sidewalks in that
part of the world and every time hydrant
is used the water is pumped out after the
main Is turned off.
Mayor King stopped on his way east at
Seattle and closed a few deals for the
work he was sent to do.
