eral comment by all classes in this COM
munity Sunday. 1t was such an unheard
OF proceeding. an incident unprecedented
in the political manipulatione OF this
state-and they have been manifold and
oft times mysterious-that It stirred up
all classes. no matter Of what political
afIlliation. to the highest pitch,
Governor Has Nothing to Say.
AS Gov. John c. Cutler, according to
the statement OF Major Breeden, was
somewhat intimately connected with the
maohinetion, q representative OF the
Tribune called upon the CHIEF Executive
at his residence Sunday afternoon for
the purpose of obtaining from him his
views regarding the transaction. Tho
reporter was accorded cordial recep-
tion and after some informal talk the
newspaperman asked the Governor the
following question: Governor, l desire
20 ask you regarding the visit OF Mar
shall Spry and Major Breeder to ogden
to interview Judge Howell with regard
TO MS decision Oh Nne Huolioh LII hS"

'I have nothing to say on that mat
ter" was the immediate response OF
Governor Cutler.
There Is an interview IN this morn
ings Tribune with Attorney-General
Breeden, Governor have you seen thatg'
"Yes, l have seen the interview re-
piled the Governor.
And IT is claimed that they went there
at your instigation. representing you and
that they were to use your namee"
"They can claim anything they please,
I don't care to discuss II at ALL was
the positive answer.
Then you have no statement to make,
Governor-you won't discuss the mat
ter?"
mo. I have nothing whatever to say"
Arranged Matters In Governors Office.
Thus ended the interview. In his state
ment Major Breeden stated that the de-
cision to visit Ogden and interview Judge
Howell was arrived at in the Governors s
office, in the Governors presence, Mar
shal Spry. OF course, also being there,
and probably some others. Messrs. Bree
den and Spry left the office OF the Gov
ernor and went direct to the depot and
boarding g train, set out for Ogden. Un-
der these circumstances, and consider
ing that the Chief Executive was so In
timately connected with the matter, IT
was deemed probable that he had some
statement TO make relative to the mis-"
sion, and the above interview was sought
with the result chronicled.

pumping plant and installing the ma
chinery would have TO be added TO that
sum.
Deluded the Public.
STILL the Morrisites had the audacitv
to delude the public by making IL think
that the Sl50,000 would be sufficient
to construct the sewer, and now that
the American administration has seen flt
to put stop 10 the wasteful and tncom-
Detent work that has been nothing but
a bungle since its inception. the sore
heads are raising the cry that the tax
payers OF the western part OF the city
are being abused and that the money Is
being held up for the benefit of some
body's bank,
The proposition Is simply this: Tho
American administration does not pro-
pose to abuse the public by allowing an
abuse started by a previous administrn-
tion TO continue.
The sewer matter VIII prove a boom
erang tothe Smootite bunch which is
raising the howl, when the public sees
as 1t will, the foresightedness OF the
American administration in stopping
work long enough TO bring order out of
chaos.

MANY DIP IN BRINE
at Saltatr Reported
Slightly Improved.


A crowd of about $500 persons went
to Saltair yesterday to enjoy day
in the water and other attractions at
the resort In the afternoon bathing
was very popular, because Of the fact
that the sun was kept from the bath"
ers by black clouds which lowered IN
the sky. In the afternoon about 1000
persons INDUCED in a briEy dip and
later on in the evening, when cool
breeze set in from the west, this num-
Der was augmented to close to 1000.
In the conveniences for bathing, con
ditions have been bettered somewhat,
one especial feature being the giving
Of everybody two towels instead of one,
as until recently, Keys are still no.
ticeably lacking. The result is that
the rooms to which there are keys arc
in continual use, AS soon rs one party
comes out of the room there are several
others waiting to enter, and after a
few hours the floor becomes thoroughly
soaked. Conditions are, however, bet"
ter than for q long time.
There were no accidents reported dur
ing the day in the bathing department,
and although there were numerous
kicks registered by patrons, the major
ity went home content with good
soak In the brine.

in trouble. Officer Hilton found him
gloriously drunk on First South street
Sunday and locked him up.
McGovern was bleeding profusely
from a recently inflicted wound when
taken into custody and explained that
he had fallen on the pavement and
thus injured himself. There is some
doubt as TO the truth OF this story and
it is believed that the engineer had, a
short time before his arrest, engaged
in fight with some person at present
