ARTFUL ART|E
MAY Be BISHOP
Several Aspirants for the Posi-
tiOn i'm Federal Stake
of Zion.
POSTMASTER, HOWEVER,
IS NOW IN THE LEAD
Mail, However, Is Delayed,
Seven Months Required to
Deliver Letter.

Good news for Zion! "Artful ArtieD
is, according TO current reports, in
active training for a bishopric. Not
for the Ensign, Liberty or Granite
stakes, nor for any of the ordinary &C.
which the angel Moroni looks down
from his perch on the tower of the
Temple. Oh, no; Artie's ambition
would not deign the accordance of so
minor an appointment. He's going to
be bishop of the newly-created Federal
stake of Zion.
"You we heard about tiff you mix
and mingle with the great intellects
that are now leading the Smootites to
Joseph +. Smith knows where. Head
quarters have been established in the
Federal building, hence the name.
The new stake has an elastic boun
Diary. One day its outposts may be
heightened and an attempt made to
nail down something in tar.away Ida
no or Wyoming.
Artful Artie, who gains his own esti-
mate of the sum total of power and
intellect by, gazing into mirror, is
not the only candidate for the va
eancy. There s Elder William Spry,
Elder Curly Callister Elder Hyrum
Booth and several others.
"Artful Artie'' in Lead.
But just now Artie IS in the lead.
In fact, he is so busy throwing dust
in tho faces OF his rivals that lie has
no time to devote TO the business of
conducting tho Salt Lake postofice, for
which he draws snug salary.
Seven Months to Deliver Letter.
Such a little thing as "a letter lying
in his postoilice for about seven months
before delivery docs not worry him
little bit. Here's one instance culled
from many:
On December 30, 1905, John Noonan,
who was then attending school in st.
Joseph, Mo, wrote letter TO his moth
er, Mrs, John Noonan, 1882 Third East
street, tbls city. 1t was plainly adj
dressed with her name, street number
city and State. Tho stamp Of the Salt
Lake Office shows that it was received
here on January l, 1906. 1t was de-
livered to Mrs, Noonan by carrier on
July 24, 1906, practically seven months
after it fell into Artie's hands.
But the Salt Lake Postmaster has
become so case hardened and so in
different to the interest of the people
he is sworn to serve that so small a
matter as this counts for less than
nothing,

BUTTE, Mont, July 25.-The recent
visit of +. Augustus Heinze to the
Bingham copper fields was not with
out significance, and there is every rea-
sonable foundation for the belief that
he and his associates are paving the
way for gigantic operations. 1t is
understood that Harry L, Charles,
Heinze head smelterman, who recent
ly went to Bingham, is now at work
on plans for an enlargement of the
Bingham Consolidated smelter. Dur,

Tt is said that a great combination
Of mining interests is being formed
and that Salt Lake valley Is TO be

bination in Montana, Idaho, Califor-
MIA, Nevada and Utah. 1t has leaked
out that a site is being sought upon
which to construct mammoth smelt-
ing plant to treat ell classes Of ore,
and which will be convenient to the
various lines of railroads that stretch
out from Bingham in all directions. If
water can be secured, 1t is possible
that these works will be located at a
point closer to the Bingham plant than
the present smelter OF the Bingham
CONSOLIDATED company, so that the
trouble with farmers over the smoke
and fumes may be avoided,
Plans Are Under Way.
Plans for the proposed extensive
plant, it is said, have been prepared in
the rough, and are under consideration
During his trip to Utah Mr.. Heinze
made a thorough examination of the

German Prince on World Tour.

BERLIN, Dec. 8.-America will
soon welcome a son OF the Kaiser
who is arranging for a wOrldt0ur
for his fourth son, Prince August
Wilhelm. IL is understood that the
prince will visit the United States in
the near future, as his father has a
great admiration for America and
the American people.
Prince August Wilhelm IS a good
loking lad of 10, and has just COM
pieted his studies at Bonn University,
wnere the Kaiser was a student. A
lover of the open-air life, he has an
ambition to i've on ranch on the
Western plains.
Americans will soon be able to
hear the Emperor Williams voice
in talking machine. His majesty
some time ago granted an interview
to the well-known American scientist
DR.. E. w. Scripture, member of the
EoIuILAoOuIdn luotIlutIouJ WIZ w do uC-
puted by the Washington museum to
obtain a record of the imperial voice
on a cylinder.
The Kaiser consented to speak for
the occasion, but only under the ex-
press condition that no public use
should be made of the record during
his lifetime.
Mr.. Scripture consented to the pro-
yiso, but ne mad not counted on the
insistence of Americans, and yielding
to pressure brought on him, he has
again appealed to the ruler of Ger
many, who has finally consented that
his voice shall be allowed to be heard
during his lifetime.
