YET FIND A WAY
Romance Of Cache County Farmer
Greatly Disturbed by Immigra-
ton Authorities.
T0lLED TEN LONG YEARS
THEN FAILED TO SECURE HIS
BRIDE.
Especial to The HeraId.)

Logan. March 4-The truth of the old
axiom that the course of true love
never runs smooth etc, is being pref
ty well demonstrated by a Cache coun-
~ farmer. His name is Frederick
Speth, and he resides in College. a
small town about four miles southwest
of this city He is a German having
come to this country ten years or more
ago. BY dint of hard labor he succeed
ed in acquiring a farm and then he de-
cided to get married.
He had a sweetheart in the Father
land who had waited patiently for his
success, and as soon as he felt able to
treat her TO the surprise of enjoying
home all her oWn-a thing he had
hooked forward to with most pleasant
feelings-he sent her the money for her
passage to America This was last
fall
Her Hopes Blasted.
Overjoyed. the woman came at once,
but st New York all her fond expecta-
tons were crushed by the refusal of the
immigration officials to permit her to
land Her eyes were sore as a result of
travel to which she was not aCCus-
toned, and this was reason enough for
deporting her the officials said Any
way, she went back, and from there no
tined her lover or what n6Q happened.
It was a pretty severe blow to Speth.
who had been living in hourly expeCta-
ton of her arrival. but his affection
was not of the kind that waues with
trouble, so two months ago he secured
admission to citizenship and then went
to Germany determined to we'd his
sweetheart and bring her back with
him.
Government Butted In.
But when he reached the Fatherland
and proceeded to carry out his inten-
tious the government butted in and in
sisted upon being assured of a lot Of
things that Speth thought were entirely
personal. An endless amount of red
tape was in prospect but, nothing
daUnted. he sought the American con-
sui at Stuttgart, Edward H. Ozmun,
who took the matter up.
This morning County Clerk Larsen
received a letter from the consul ask
ing him to certify 10 these facts-that
there is no legal imDediment TO the
marriage of Speth here that all mar
Tiages performed in the kingdom Of
WurtembUrg are recognized i'm the
United States, that Speth is a United
States citizen. and that he viii not lose
his citizenship by reason of his mar
rage in Germany This must be Ger
titled 20 by the clerk and attested by
the German consul AT Denver, then
SDeth can get married and bring his
