SAVE UTAH FROM STRIFE.

The thought has been expressed that
the duty OF every loyal citizen in Utah
now IL to unite with his friends and
neghbors IN an effort for the Develop
ment OF the State, its cities and settle-
nients. Aud Il should not be much OF
an effort either, considered the natural
attractions OF these glorious mountain
valleys. II is necessary, though, to
withdraw support from those who have
no higher aim I'm life than 10 make
trouble, in order that they may pro-
1T thereby personally. Utah must be
saved from the designs OF strlfe-breed-
ers.
Utah Is blessed with climate that
cannot be surpassed anywhere on earth
IN the same latitude, We have here
wonderful resources that have hardly
been touched yet Agriculture, horti-
culture, pouItry-ralsing and kindred in
dustrles are capable OF almost unlimited
DEVELOPMENT. In fact, AZ long as we
have TO import food we are not
producing according to the ca
racity Of the soil. The mining camps.
too, offer opportunities beyond tho
dreams OF the most sanguine. We have
ample room for the honest worker, no
matter what his creed, or politics may
be, and we have citizens here who are
ready to welcome the stranger and
make him feel at home. We have every,
thing that is needed for rapid progress
and development. why should not every
good citizen turn against the flends who
are continually throwing frebrands In
every direction IN order 10 keep burn.
Ing the flames Of animosity and hatred
that like prairie fires cause ruin and
desolntion? No country can prosper,
unless its citizens live IN harmony and
union. The choicest blessings OF heav-
IN are never showered In abundance
upon scenes OF strife and contention.
Famine and pestilence are generally
the concomitants OF war, as Is seen to-
day IN Russia II we want material
fiourishing BUSINESS, and adj
yancement on every line. we must pun
together.

In this great Republic. II, we say. this
has been accomplished while four mill
lion dollars has been spent In trying to
break up the Church. how many more
millions will he needed by those en-
gagged In the breaking up process, be-
fore they can say they have succeeded?
This IL an interesting mathematical
proposition. Evidently there is a life
Job for Or. Illff and his friends, Az
least, they will not be out OF employ
ment, such as IL Is. as long as they can
find dupes IN the country willing 10 pay

fesses TO be, he would cease his work
OF persecution and leave the Church he

main, but II II Is not OF man, how
puny do the efforts OF men TO overthrow
II nppearl There Is not wealth enough
in the world TO stay the work u the
Almighty. nor ls there wisdom enough
to devise successful plans and schemes
for tho obstruction Of the progress Of
His Church. We commend this truth
to the serious consideration of all who
are foolish enough to place themselves
In opposition to the plans already de-
cided upon IN the eternal councils Of
heaven.

SO great is tho prosperity OF the
railroads and so high the cost VI liV-
ing that q demand for more wages is
becoming quite general among rail-
road employees. Moreover. the pres

are being worked harder and under
such circumstances managers are dis
posed to concede the justice OF the
demand In many cases. The Reading
company has already conceded an al

Man Suspected of Killing Woman

OFFICERS GAVE HIM CHANCE
Tragedy Reveals Long Career of Dou-
Bile Dealing BY Inscriptions
Conductor.

Minneapolis. Mimi, July 13.-With
Millie Ellison as the murdered victim
and Nathan Riggs, her slayer, a sui.
eide, with the seal of death on the
der an assumed name and with deaths
seal, too. on the secret of many of the
murderer's movements. the National
hotel tragedy has resolved itself into a
mystery of TWO $1,000 bills
The facts about Millie Ellison's poor
little romance are fast becoming z
known. and especially since the dis
covery of the letters which passed be
tween Riggs and the girl. One of these
letters. translated from a cipher in
which it was written, shows that the
two were interested together in a west
ern farm on which they expected to
live together.
Riggs Escaped Justice.
Riggs escaped justice by taking his
life at the Preston hotel, Elroy, Wis,
yesterday. He asked Sheriff w.
Searles. Juneau county, Wis, who had
him in custody, to allow him TO go to
the washroom. The sheriff granted the
request and a moment later a shot was
heard. The sheriff and the hotel pro-
prietOrs rushed in and found the muir
derer lying dead on the floor with a
revolver tightly clutched in his hand.
Sheriff Searles is blamed by the Min
neapolis police for the lax watch put
over the prisoner. who was given ev-
cry opportunity TO commit suicide. Be
fore blowing his brains out, he wrote
six letters on a typewriter. These let
tiers are now in the possession of Ell
roy's justice of the peace. The letters
were written in Riggs room. while his
custodian. Warren Searles, sat in an
other room reading a magazine.
Tragedy Reveals Double Life.
IF ever there was Jekyll and Hyde
in real life. Nathan Riggs was the
man. said Police Superintendent
Doyle
He led double life and the wonder
is he was able to keep it up as long as
he did. While he was known in Min
neapoIis as a church member. a model
husband and father. and a respected
ne was recognized along the
line as bad egg. He was a bully all
along his run
After the horrible crime at the Ma
tional hotel had been committed Riggs
went out on his train to ElrOy, the
same cheerful. accommodating con-
ductor as ever. apparently. At the time
of his arrest in Elroy he seemed griev-
ed and shocked that he should be I'M
der suspicion.
