The attention OF the Logan public
is called TO manifesto issued by the
City Board Of Health. This guardian
OF the public's health says that the
property owners in this city MUST
clean their premises as they have never
been cleaned before, and 1t is insisted
that prosecutions Will follow If the
law is not carried out in all It's fullness.
The state officials say that all corrals
must be removed TO point not less
than one hundred feet from the streets
and the City Board Of Health is going
to see that they are removed. Cotton
bearing trees must go-and they ought
to 60. The officials have been lenient
long enough and offenders against the
city ordinance requiring owners to re.
move all cotton. bearing trees is TO be

Center street between Fourth and
Fifth East street Is again being used
as dumping ground for garbage.
This is extremely offensive under any
circumstances and particularly so in
asmuch as the garbage is dumped on
the banks of the Little Logan, from
which many people take water for
general use. There is an ordinance
against dumping garbage inside the
city limits, and those who have been
and still are guilty OF violating this
ordinance should be and 40 doubt will
be made to pay the penalty sooner or
later. The city could very profitably
place at the place indicated a warning
that offenders will be prosecuted for
dumping garbage there.

Hon. Samuel Newhouse, for reasons
best known to himself, desired to be
appointed on the Agricultural College
board. His friends made application
TO the governor, and the governor
promptly asked Mr.. Newhouse II he
would not serve on the UNIVERSITY
board. Mr.. Newhouse said he would
appreciate the honor, of course, but
preferred to be on the A. G. board.
The governor said appointments for
that board had been made. When
McCornick's resignation offered the
opportunity for placing Mr. Newhouse
on the A, c. board as we'll as the Uni
versity board, did the governor rise to
the occasion? Never once-he named
your Uncle Ed, Loose Loose is a
good man alright but why could not
the Governor have appointed New
house on both boards, as he did Mr..
Ritter?

B. Hendricks and
Lewiston.
Desperate News,

Desperate News.
Brigham ii. Hendricks OF Lewiston,
Cache county, is one OF the three rep
resentatives Of the Second legislative
district In the state legislature. Mr..
Hendricks was born in Salt Lake City
forty-two years ago, and Is a son of w.
d. Hendricks, one of the pioneers of
the northern country, and member
OF the Mormon battalion. The elder
Hendricks was also probably the first
contractor on public works in this
city, and has been successful in rail-
road contracting work for more than
generation.
The subject Of this sketch moved TO
Cache valley with his parents forty
years ago, and for years has been a
resident OF Lewiston, the north vest
ern town In the state. For the past
two years Mr.. Hendricks has been one
Of the county commissioners OF his
home county, and during his term Of
Office had the satisfaction OF assisting
In building $4,000 addition to the
county court house, as we'll as reduc-
ing the county debt about sl5, 700. At
the end of,his term, exiring December
81, 1906, the bonded Indebtedness OF
Cache county was only $3l 900, when
there was In the treasury of the county
more than $32, 900, or more than enough
to pay of the county indebtedness,
and that with levy OF only mills.
That Mr.. Hendricks Is a level head
ed, conservative man OF affairs was
evidently recognized by the speaker In
his makeup of the house committees,
as Mr.. Hendricks was not only given
the craftsmanship OF the claims and
public accounts committee, but he was
named as vice-chairman OF the appro-
priations committee, and was given
assignments on such important com.
mittees as those on agriculture, and
highways and bridges,
"Our county is prosperous, said Mr..
Hendricks, today, "Our horses and
cattle, as shown by the records of the
state board of equalization, are as
sessessed higher than in any other sec.
tion OF the state, Men come to Cache
from all over the country, and par
ticularly from California, to buy our
pedigreed horses and cattle.

Room for a Million.

Lewiston, my home town, is a city
OF magnificent distances and remark
able growth. We have an area laid
out for city purposes two and half
miles by six miles long, and we
have room for million people, Our
sugar factory is one OF the best in the
state. The people in the vicinity of
Lewiston last year planted 1900 acres
of sugar beets, and harvested from
fourteen TO twenty.seyen bushels per
acre Of tie saccharine tubers.

discussion was INDUCED in, but
a few only objected to bonding
We expect to see the new room
ready before September next.
If the expressions and wishes
of the people would have any
effect on the life our Governor in
regard to his actions towards the
A. c., and its officials, he would
live in misery all the days of his
life.

Benson Brief|ings

BENSON, March Is On
Thursday morning of last week
every one asked his neighbor
"Did you hear the wind last
night9 2" The one who didn't hear
the roar must be a dead one. The
writer thought it was grand
wind, thunder, lightning and rain
resembling a mighty chorus. Our
neighbor, II. Griffiths, thought it
might have spared him some
trouble to leave his wagon and
buggy shed to stay where it be-
longed. In thel over part Of the
ward a stack was blown over,
killing two cows belonging to
Hugh Dowdle. Ezra Kicks had
his big barn blown down, this
being the biggest damage done
by the wind in this place.
w. j. Sanderson is again able
to be around after the severe
scalding of his leg, which hap
pened about six weeks ago.
On Saturday school bond cleo
ton was held at the Riverside
school house to consider the pro-
position of building an addition

Wrappers Are Costly.

Paper bags are absolutely necessary
In certain lines of business, and. con-
sidering that 'tlere is no cash return,
constitute probably one of the large
items of expense to stores and mar
ket stalls. The expenditure for ordi-
nary paper bags, such as are used in
grocery stores, during 1906, reached
nearly $9,2O0,000 The outlay for all
bags OF various kinds amounted to
$25,OO0,000. Nearly s24,OOO,O 900 passed
into the Golfers of the men who make
the ornate, benowered, fancy boxes
for candy, gifts and flowers.

Breeders throughout the valley are
said to be taking great deal Of inter-
est in the Dig Horse Show scheduled
for Logan, April 13. There is every
promise of large presentation of fine
horses on that date, and for the ad-

is to be hoped that the affair VIII be a
huge success.

A Biz Canal.

Another great thing for our coun.
try Is the West Cache canal which has
just been completed. The canal is
forty miles long and irrigates fully
10000 acres OF splendid sandy soil.
The water Is taken out Of Bear river
at the old Battle creek In Idaho and
carried down through Trenton In
Cache valley and turned back into
the Bear at Cache Junction. Land
under this canal has greatly enhanced
In value the last year, and settlements
are springiDg up on every side. The
land Is first class for fruit raising, and
one apple orchard alone of 900 acres is
being planted this spring.
1.-THE people Of our country are thrift
ty and industrious, and there Is great
future before them. They are enter
prisipg and public spirited. and their
mercantile institutions, their school
buildings, their houses OF worship and
amusement halls are all Of a creditable
character aud Indicate the solid and
substantial nature OF the people who
build them. II Is we'll known fact
that Cache is one OF the best watered
valleys in the west and some OF the
finest fishing and hunting In the coun-
try is provided by its canyons and
mountain streams We are growing
up north" said Mr.. Hendricks, 1--WE
have room and welcome for all who
wish to come and make their home
with us,and invite you all to come and
see u.s."

Other Industries.

Then our condensed milk factory is
second TO none in the west, and is a
source of great Income TO our farmers.
In fact, the two sugar factories and
the two condensed milk factories, were
the mainstay OF the farmers last year,
when great deal OF the grain was
spoiled with rust on account OF the wet
weather. But our beets and our cows
saved the day, and all went well with
US.

''The keeping Of our dairy stock is
another feature for which Cache valley

highest grade Of milk, cream, butter
cheese Is produced.

LEAVING MONEY TO CITIES.
 By William RittenhOuse


 Wealthy men and women have long been leaving legacies to charities, to colleges, to libraries, and public insti- tutions. But to leave money to the city, for municipal uses is so far a rather unusual thing in America. In Europe, and especially in Paris. which it's citizens appear to consider a very satisfactory legatee, bequests to the city are frequent and often pictrues- que. In Paris, for example, one man left a large sum to the municipality as a fund to reward policemen who had distinguished themselves by cour- ageous acts of service, or their fami- lie., if their courage had cost them their lives-a sort of transatlantic Hero Fund" Another man left a fortune to the city to provide marri- age portions (so necessary ill French |life) for poor and worthy young girls. A third left bis money to Paris to re- ward workmen who should distin- guish themselves by their work, or good conduct; fourth testator pro- vided for needy widows whose hus- bands are killed in accidents; and a fifth for the municipal employees who have the largest families to support.
 America has not tried these forms of bequest yet; but Boston mer- chant who died little while ago, left the Hub the sum of forty-eight thous- and dollars. The income of ten thousand of this amount is to be spent in the care of the four famous old cemeteries of the town; and the income of five thousand on preserving the old trees on Boston Common, while the interest on three thousand is to be devoted to any repairs neces- sary on the old State House.
 Another rich man of Providence, Rhode Island, has left money to the municipality to endow the parks there. A millionaire at Springfield, Massachusetts, left legacy to the town that secured the purchase of a beautiful tract of land along the bank of the Connecticut as public park. Quincy and Braintree, Massachusetts, have each had three thousand dollars left to them with which to take care of their old burying grounds. One queer, but sagaeious, legacy is noted in St. Louis, where a man who had given much to municipal work al ready, left the city money enough to provide for two banquets each year by "those interested in the physical ex- pression of the city's higher life He was wise enough to know that at such banuuets generosity would be arous

an article appeared telling of the I efficient work along these lines
 which was being done in several
 rp-to-date Western towns by CT

 Astonishing results wee ottain- eo by the aggressive and l.ogres- sive work of these energat:c wom tn There, where every green D'ade of grass has to be ccax1d from the barren earth, law.s were 1 rsde and covered with Natures geeen ossIet, flowers were coaxed 70 grow and bloom in profusio". ye:an.:as were covered wi;h grace ful vines, and behold! a garden in desert!
 Now, why can not we n this land where thu soil is all that 1t should be wlerc sunshine and showed coicb'ne to further the most in- different effort towards horticulture and Horticulture, and where there are surely willing hearts and hands in every good cause, have civic improvement league, with wom- ans auxiliary.
 The Graphic proposes to in augurate civic improvement cam paign and will devote a portion of it's space every week towards this worthy cause. The Graphic has now and always the interests of Pine Bluff and her citizens at heart, and it asks the cooperation of Pine Bluff citizens, man, woman and child, in this work towards the physical development and beau- tifying of this city. The columns of this paper will be open to sug- gestions and communications from our readers, and we earnestly ask the consideration of all ambitious Pine Bluffians to the articles and suggestions discussed through these columns in the Sunday Gra- phic.

BED OF CIVIC IMPROVEMENT.

/
 That Pine Bluff is an attractive prosperous little city no one can nepy: neither can it be denied, how ever, that it might be very much more attractive and prosperous by a little more determined effort on the part of her citizens to improve and make the best of the many ad- vantages with which nature has so generously endowed her.
 The civic improvement move ment which is being pursued in so many cities now all over the coun- try to their very decided better ment, is one which should be earn estly and eagerly taken up by the citizens of Pine Bluff. First im- pressions are often lasting impress sions, and the stranger. who comes to Pine Bluff with a view to To- cation and investment, would be much more readily inclined to feel interested in what we have to offer in a business way, were our streets, our pavements, our lawns, our flowers, our fences so well kept as to attract at a glance and leave pleasing impression in the mind. A walk or drive over the principal streets of our busy little city dis closes much of which her most patriotic citizen may we'll be proud, but we must admit that while there are very many well kept homes and premises to gladden. our vision, there is lacking that uni formity of order and care so neces- sary in the maintaining of a "city beautiful"
 Pine Bluff needs an active civic improvement league: one that will not only plan but execute. We do not want unsightly papers thrown upon our streets and sidewalks. We want the weeds cut down and kept down. We want our shade trees, one of our proudest pos sessions, pruned and cared for, and preserved.
 We want our lawns moved and kept immaculate. We want flowers and vines to lend grace and beauty to every home in this town, "be it ever so humble.''
 We need to have unsightly shanties and broken down fences torn down and good ones to re- place them.
