ing 70 say against the condition. but T
do not believe the females and males

The railroad company has put in
stock yards at Border, which will be a
great convenience to the shippers from
that vicinity and Thomas Fork. The
people OF Star Valley will also likely
ship from there as they can make TIE
trip in less time and have good feed for
their stock until they are ready to load.
The company. however, has only put
in the chute, but Anderson Bros. and

FIELDING ACADEMY NOTES.
Opening Of Present Seasons Work
on Monday, Sept. II.

The Fielding Academy will open for
the present seasons work on Monday.
Sept. 18th. During the summers a
alton, cleaning, repairing and other
work has been done in the Academy
building, vacancies in the Faculty have
been filled and courses of instruction
added. All Is now in readiness to begin
on the date above mentioned, and the
prospect for q most successful years
work is gratifying
The Academy has been fortunate in
securing instructors who are very pro-
ficient and thoroughly competent in
their lire of work. The young people
Of the district may be congratulated on
the excellent opportunity they have to
receive the best Of training under the
tutorship Of God-fearing men and wo-
men.
Special attention is called to the our
ses in manual training. In carpentry
rs well as In sewing the equipment Is
complete. Whether beginning or doing
advanced work the student in wood
work will receive personal attention
with q view of fitting him for industrial
pursuits in the line he desires-cabinet
making. turning, building or construc-
ton. The student in sewing is given an
opportunity as soon as she is prepared
to take up the principles Of cutting,
dressmaking, etc.
In addition to the courses (Normsl,
High School, Preparatory and Mission.
ary) offered before, two new courses
will be given. one in Agriculture and
n in Domestic Arts, each covering
three years work: Professor Hogan
son, . thoroughly prepared specialist
along these lines, has been engaged,
that this practical side of education may
receive the necessary attention. It is
believed that these courses will meet
the needs and conditions as they exist
In this Academy district.
An opening program will take place
In the Auditorium on Monday Sept.
18th, at 10 a. m. On this occasion the
school will be honored with the pres
ence Of Supt. Horace H. Cummings
and members of the board from other
stakes Of the Academy district are ex-
pected. After the program, entrance
examination and registration will pro-
coed, and instruction will begin IN all
departments on the following day.
A catalogue, containing information
to students. can be had by calling on
or addressing Principal R. T. Hagg at

Some Annoying Benefits.


With attorneys for the railway COM
panies gathered in.conference to ascer.
tain how the new law for the regulation
of the railway business may be inter
preted, it is rather eavly for the layn en-
to undertake to tell what effect the
amended statutes will have upon ser
vice which the public is to get in the
future. But it is sensibly anticipated
that a strict enforcement Of the law will
prove both annoying and expensive to
very many people who have been OPP
posed to discriminating rates without
realizing that they were the ~benefciari. 8
of them. They are in a fair way to
understand that there can be Giscrimin-
atoms in railway rates which are of
great advantage to the general public
without imposing a burden or hardship
upon anybody, aud that these must be
included In the adjustment of railway
determinations.
1t is the opinion of some uf the best
legal authorities that the cheap railway
excursion will disappear when the new
law takes effect. for the sufficient reas
on that the low special rat - must be
held to be a discrimination which the
law prohibits. What an innovation Of
this kind would mean to the public may
be estimated by anyone who has wit
messed the week end exodus from n
of the large cities of the country made
possible as well as popular by the cheap
rates temporarily established by the
railway companies.
With the enforcement of the new
law 1t is claimed that the companies
cannot thus reduce rates and restore
them for conduct Of the regular bus
mess. The law makes certain excep-
tions in special cases, but the excep-
tions will serve to emhpasize the rule
which requires that no person shall be
given special privileges denied to any
other person by transportation COM
panles.
The law will be likely TO be both un-
popular and injurious to those sections
OF the country in need of new settlers
and new investments. The homeseek.
er's excursion will have to 20 at reg
ular rates unless the pretense that the
law is to do away with determinations
is to be made absurd Summer outings
will become more expensive and great
national conventions of all kinds will
be subjected to the necessity Of paying
the regular charges for transportation.
The decrease in this branch of the rail.
way business will diminish earnings
and make ii more difficult rather than
more easy for the companies to reduce
their regulation charges for passenger
service without depriving the stock
holders of the reasonable compensation
which they are entitled to receive under
any law.-Moscow Star.
