NEW FRANCHISE IS FAVORED
Mayor Conroy Will Send a Message
to the Council on the Water
works Question.

AT the session of the city council this
evening the recommendation of Mayor
Conroy on the waterworks question, to
the effect that the council pass another
fifty-year franchise in favor of the Ogden
Waterworks company, declaring the one
recently passed TO be null and void
changing that part of section referring
to the placing of meters and making same
to read that meters shall be placed only
upon the request of the consumer, will
come up. 1t is somewhat doubtful if the
council will take any further steps in this
matter, although the point would be a
good one in favor of the people. But the
question arises, nevertheless, that If such
a substitute franchise is offered and
passed, what would become of the action
that has been filed in the name of ]. ].
Brummitt against the city and the water
works company? The franchise passed
at the meeting of the city council July
81 is made a part of that complaint as
exhibit A. and in view of this fact ii
is altogether likely that if the action is
TO stand a new complaint would have to
be drawn and filed against the new or
chance. The matter, of course is ONLY
technical and at the most would post
pone the proceedings for short time.

From Bit and Spur.

Lura May Garner, 10 years of age, was
drowned in the Weber river at Hooper
shortly before / o'clock yesterday after
noon. ]. c. Wilson, who attempted to
rescue her, was himself dragged under by
the drowning girl and was taken from
the water more dead than alive. Will

the other members of the rescuing party
are pronounced to be in a critical con-

Were in Bathing.
Miss Garner in company with two young
women about her age, went bathing in
the river near Hooper Yesterday noon At
the place where the bathers entered the
water the river is said TO be very treach-
erOus. A number of Whirlpools and deep
holes abound. Miss Garner had waded
through considerable depth when one of
her companions inquired If she was not
going too far. The unfortunate girl took
one step more and was swept off her
feet by the current. Just before she sank
she cried, 'Oh, save me-" The screams
of her companions, who realized that she
was drowning, were heard by John C.
Wilson, who rushed to the scene, arriving
just at the time when she arose to the
surface.
Wilson Plunged In.

son leaped into the water. In an instant
he was in the clutches of the drowning
girl. He was unable to break her hold
and was forced under the water. Wilson
son reached the place about the time his
father was sinking out of sight and
rushed into the stream. Young Wilson as
sisted in pushing them toward the shore.
When the girls grasp was broken she
sank for the last time and Wilson was
pulled from the water by a number of
men who had been attracted to the scene
By diving a number of men attempted to
locate the body but it was fully an hour
before William Belnap, jr., succeeded in
bringing it to the surface.
Dead When Taken Out.
Dr. King of Hooper was on hand when
the body was taken from the water but as
life had long since been extinct nothing
could be done to resuscitate the girl. Miss
Garner was the daughter of Jedediah Gar
ner, prosperous farmer of that place.
An inquest over the remains was held
yesterday afternoon and a verdict of ac

The traditional. American way, the
English way, of dealing with
abuses, evils, injustices, is to remedy
them by better laws, by better methods

not one Of sudden impulse, not one Of
revolutionary change. It is sometimes
exasperatingly slow. It requires pa
