assistants have been busy revising the
list OF diverting channels and names Of
irrigators as given in the biennial report
of the state engineer for 1903 and 1904
The list was found TO be inaccurate and
Incomplete with the result that a large
amount of work was required TO make il
reliable
Mr.. Tanner stated Tuesday that the
work of revising the list and preparing
the statement 20 be filed with the county
clerk at Ogden would be finished by Feb

lature q statement must be filed by the
state engineer with the clerk OF a dis
trict court as soon as a survey is com
plete. In the case Of the Weber river

the time because of the inaccuracy OF
the list of names and diyerting channels
This statement will be filed at Ogden

COMPANIES are
NOT IN MERGER
AND BELL OFFICIALS
OF WHEELING DENY CON.
soLipATioN.

WHEELING, Oct. 1G.-Rumors OF a
consolidation Of the National with the
Bell telephone company were emphat.
ically denied last evening by officials
OF both companies. No such step was
anticipated. 1t appears from their
statements. and the report which ap.
peared in another paper was basel
upon the fact that the two companies
have been acting In harmony in the
matter OF fighting the strike OF tho
llnemen. and the announcement Of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company from Boston they would not
confne the use OF the instruments
they manufacture to their lines but
would sell them also to Independent
companies with the idea OF standardlz.
ing the telephone systems in the cour-
Try. The Western Electrical company
is the sub-concern of the Bell making
the instruments and 1t Will have prac-
tlcally no effect locally. unless local
companies should at some time deter.
mine to adopt the Bell instrument.
Another fact that might lead one to
believe a deal of some kind was on
was the transaction in several blocks
of National stock to parties unknown.
However. these blocks were small anil
were picked up inst here and there.
and there seemed to be or organized
effort to secure stock.
Manager NJ. R. Wolfe, OF the Bell.
the highest official in the company's
employ in this district. last evening
stated he knew nothing whatever of a
plan being on to merge the National
with the Bell company.
Mr.. John A. Howard, president OF
the National company, said: There
is not any truth in the story. It was
maliclously conceived. believe, and 1
think | know the parties who starteI
it. We would have nothing to gain
through such deal. There is moth.
ing in It."

FINE MEETING
WAS HELD BY THE coLoREo PEo-
PIE AT MONROE STREET
CHURCH LAST NIGHT.

The association of colored citizens
of the town, organized last year. held
their first meeting last night at the
Monroe street church with a good at
tendance. This organization has for
its object the Improvement OF the con-
dItions OF the race along all lines OF
good citizenship. This idea is rapid.
ly growing in various sections OF the
country and the good citizens OF our
city are not TO be left behind In this
movement. Meetings will be held
monthly at which time lectures and
discussions will be had pertaining to
the social, financial and Intellectual
needs OF the race In this community.

Integrity, as essential needs for good

the community and the race and help
to remove many barriers that seem to
face the race. The next monthly ses-
sion will be held in Mt. Zion Baptist
church November 5th.
