FUNDS OF SAINTS
Suit of Smurthwaite and Musser
Will Be Taken to Fed
eral Court.
MUSSER WILL BE THE
PLAINTIFF IN THE CASE
As Resident of Butte. Will Take
Case Before United States
Officials.

The suit of Charles A Smurthwaite
and Don Carlos W Musser to restrain
Joseph F, Smith, trustee In trust for
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter
day Saints ct al, from investing the
tithing funds of the church in CONNER
cial enterprises, will be renewed in the
Federal court. This statement was
made to a representative of The Tri-
bune Wednesday by Charles A. Smurth-
waite, one of the plaintiffs In the ac-
ton.
The action has been pending during
the past two years in the Third District
court and was dismissed without preju-
dice last Tuesday by Judge Morse, on
motion of Judge C. S. Zane, attorney
for the plaintiffs.
In the event of the suit being fled in
the Federal court Mr.. Smurthwaite
would have to withdraw as one of the
plaintiffs, as the Federal court could
not assume jurisdiction in the case un-
less the plaintiffs were non"residents of
the State. Mr. Musser, being a resi-
dent of Butte, could remain as plaintiff
in the action.
Judge Zane, attorney for the plain
trfs, stated Wednesday afternoon that
he had not been authorized by his
clients 20 file the action in the Federal
court and therefore could not give out
anv information on the matter, but he
intimatcd that such course is quite

GREAT NORTHERN STOCK
WILL Be "C00D THING"
Details of Dividends in '0re"
Deal Are at Last Made
Public.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22-Details Of
the long looked for dividend 60 the
Great Northern company stockholders,
resulting from the leasing of its ore
lands to the United States Steel cor
poration were disclosed today in a cir
cular issued at the Great Northern of
fees
For every share Of Great Northern
stock, holders will receive a share Of
stock of the Lake Superior company,
limited. an un-incorporated company in
whose name the ore lands have been
held
The Lake Superior company, how
ever, is to transfer the ore properties
to the Messrs. Louis W., James, N. and
Walter j. Hill. sons of j. j. Hill. who
will act as trustees of the stock for the
shareholders of the Great Northern
company.
The beneficial interest will consist of
] 100000 shares. which equals the
amount of Great Northern shares, Thus
the distribution will be on a share-for-
share basis.
The net profits derived from the orc
properties will be distributed at least
once annually by the trustees, Some
idea of the value of the dividend which
Great Northern stockholders will re-
ccive may be had from the fact that
the United States Steel corporation is
to pay the beneficiary 50 cents per ton
for all ore mined IN the frst year. be-
ginning in 1907, with an increase Of
3 40 cents per ton year for an indie

himself in such an unseemly manner

this matter was misleading, and had
no foundation In fact ] stated that
last year the city borrowed 81 100000
for the purpose of putting in water
system sufficient for all purposes for
all time to come. That we are this year
engaged in making city, by building
sidewalks, paving streets, constructing
this work is being carried on as
rapidly as possible. The system of
building cement sidewalks is made easy
on abutting property owners, as, il they
desire. they can take ten years TO
pay the assessment. by pairing one
tentb. of the whole amount yearly. In
addition to the manifold substantial
improvements, the cost of which must
be paid for, and also provision made
for the payment of the interest on the
million dollars of bonds issued Inst
year, and the creating of a sinking
fund, and the payment Of other large
sums which were not taken care of
last year. but should have been paid
when they fell due, and which have all
been paid this year, the tax levy for
this year is less than one mill greater
than last year.
Taxable Valuation Low.
.'There is another thing to be con-
sidered, / told these parties The as
sessment is made upon a very low gal
uation. For instance, I said, a party
owns piece of property in Salt Lake,
which he values at, saw. $4,000. He
doesn t pay taxes on $4,000. for the
reason that the property is assessed at
not to exceed $4,000 to $4,000 When
he looks at his tax notice he sees that
his property has been assessed 35 mills
on the dollar, whereas in truth and in
fact his property, if assessed at its
real value, as in most other cities.
would be assessed at less than half that
rate. The city taxes i'll Salt Lake, |
assured them, were not greater, but
would compare favorably with those of
any other city in the country, and
would grow less in the future, as city
property would expand and increase in
value, as it is doing TODAY
''The parties who brought up the
subject acknowledged that they had
not looked at the matter IN the light
which | presented it, and that the facts
presented different phase of the stu
alton entirely In one thing they were
all agreed, that the newspaper or man
who would not stick up for his own
city was no good. -
Mr. Porter had many assurances
from both the West and the East that
Salt Lake would, the coming season,
be invaded by property buyers. not so
much for speculation as for improve.

Porter, ARE beginning 10 realize that

What Architect Figures Out Regardin,
Destruction of Memorial Glass.

The architects of the First Presby.
terian church building have figured
out that the pressure on the east
window of the building, which was de-
molished by the recent wind storm. was
equal TO 9720 pounds. The new window,
when installed. will be braced with lat
tice girders. which will be so securely
anchored that the window will be as
invulnerable to the attack of the
strongest wind as are the walls of the
church. 1t is expected that the new
window will be installed in about thirty
days.

SAVAGE ATTACK ON

Greater Salt Lake has no
more relentless foe than the on
cial organ Of Joseph F. Smith,
: Smith hates the mines, and he
: hates the smelters, because
; these industries do not contrib
ute TO the gratifying of his
greed. Here is how the Deseret
News attacked the smelters on
October 3, 1904:
The people of Salt Lake
City are waking up to the real
lzation Of the trouble Of which
our cousins ont in the country
are complaining.
THE fact Is, this smelter

no mistake about that. If the
Smelters cannot consume it

troll those works will not or
