two weeks ago Bishop Newton woodruff

A special meeting WAS held last evening
I'm the tabernacle Elders o. T. Whitney,

three members Of the High Council OF
this stake were present. The house was
well filled by members OF the ward. Al
ter remarks by the stake presidency 1t
was decided by unanimous vote that tho
Smlthneld ward be divided and that the
creek be the division line. The ward
north OF the creek will be known as the
Smithneld First ward and the one south
as the Smlthfield Second ward. Elder
Whitney then presented the two bishops,
f. II. Miles. Jr., was sustained as bishop
OF the First ward. and VIM. l.. Winn as
bishop Of the Second ward. Elder Whit.
ney then set apart both rs bishops, and
then delivered an excellent discourse on
the duties and qualifications of a bishop,
and the principles Of the gospel. At the
close OF his remarks II WAS announced
that Bishop Miles had chosen as his coun-
sellers Samuel Nelson as first and George
Y. Smith as second counselor and that
Bishop Wlnn had selected Alfred II.
Chambers as first and Richard Roskeley
az second counselor The three first nam
ed were then set apart but Elder Roskcl-
ley was not present.

to come. Several of tho largest coal
yards are without coal of any kind. A
representative Of the Amalgamated
Sugar company stated that the COM
pany has only about two car loads OF
coal on hand, and II requires car
per day to run the factory, so that un.
less relief Is forthcoming within the
next As hours, the management may be
compelled to shut down again, as was
necessary last week, until new supply
can be secured, A delay at this time
of the sugar company is quite loss,
as the managers are anxious to get th1
sugar beets run through. The railroad
people have come 10 the sugar
company's rescue with box and coal
cars In which to get the beets to the
factory and the beets are coming in by
train loads the past week, so that the
beet sheds are filing up rapidly. and
no fear OF having to close the factory
for want of beets Is felt, but the coal
shortage Is a serious matter, for which
there appears to be little relief In sight.
