SAWSER STILL AT OGDEN
Gov. Sparks Requests His Return
But Habeas Corpus Is Again
Brought Into Play.

The case of p. B. Sawser. the alleged
embezzler of goods from the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company at Palisade,
Eureka County. still occupies the
boards at Ogden. Utah. says a special
dispatch to the Salt Lake Tribune. His
secoud writ of habeas corpus was re-
turnable Friday morning, too late for
the SENTINEL to learn if Sheriff Sweeney
will bring his man back to Nevada:
Governors Sign Requisition.
Requisition papers were received at
Ogden late Sunday night from Cover
nor Sparks of Nevada for the return to
this State of Sawser and Sheriff w. M.
Sweeney of Eureka County wen i'm.
mediately to Salt Lake aud secured
Governor Cutters signature to the
papers. At 4 o'clock Monday afternoon
the Governors warrant vas served on
Sawser, who was still confined in the
county jail at Ogden.
Looking for LOOphOles.
Sawser awaited himself of the statu.
tory provision that gave him "a hours
before acceding to the Governors war

they could fight extradition they pro-
posed to do it, and that there was ar
agreement that notice would be given
them when the requisition papers ar
rived from Nevada.
Governor of Utah Invoked.
Tuesday morning Sawser's attorneys
appeared in court and made an applica-
ton for a writ of habeas corpus. Judge
Howell admitted the same and made it
returnable on Friday morning. In the
meantime J. H. DeVine went to Salt Lake
to see Gov. Cutler and Attorney General
Breeder, and petitioned them to revoke
the Governors signature to the extradi-
ton papers. The Governor declined to
act in the matter and Sawser spent
Thanksgiving in Jail.
Asked as to what was intended to be
lone, Attorney DeVine stated that it
was a question whether they would
fight the habeas corpus in behalf of
Sawser, and intimated hat he would
perhaps be permitted to return to Ne
vada without further legal proceed
ings in Utah.

is at its height. In Oregon and Wash
ington the most densely timbered area
is west Of the Cascade mountain range.
This is due to the moisture peculiar to
that section, which aids In the rapid
and prolific development of plant life.
In this forestry belt the Douglas fir
predominates and furnishes about so
per cent of the merchantable timber.
Among the larger species of trees Is
the giant tideland spruce, which grows
to marvellous proportions, in many In
stances assuming a diameter of twenty
feet and rising hundreds of feet in
height. In cutting the big trees stumps
are often left of twelve or fifteen feet
in height, because the wood of the low
err part Of the tree Is rough and hard to
work. If the stump chances to be hol-
low all a settler has to do for a home
Is to roof the stump and cut doors and
windows. Sometimes the hollows at
the foot of the trees are such that a
cart can be driven through them even
before the giant lords Of the forest ars
felled to the ground.
