Progreas Of the Work
On the Pana ma Canal.

work on the Panama canal is pro-
cecding in a highly satisfactory man
ner. In March the total excavation in
the Culebra Cut. where effort was
chiefly concentrated. was s15, ,27O cubic
yards In April this was increased to
s79 527 cubic yards There was con-
siderable decrease in the output for
May and June owing partly to the ad-
vent of the rainy season and partly to
temporary trouble with the steam
shovel men over the question of wages.
This trouble was settled satisfactorily
to all parties and in July the total ex-
cavstion advanced materially and in
August the grand total from all points
in the canal prism by steam shovels
and dredges exceeded all previous
United States records. reaching 1874
40i cubic yards. In September this rec
ORC was eclipsed and total of 1877
Az cubic yards was removed OF this
amount 1.4S1 307 cubic yards were from
the canal prism and 36.l05 cubic yards
were from accessory works. These re
suits were achieved in the rainy
son with a rainfall in August of l1s9
Inches and in September of ll.65 inches.
Finally. in October. the record was
again eclpsed, the total excavation be

of the heavy rainfall. which was Ill

work on the locks and dams at
Gatun. which began actively in March
last, has advanced far that it is
thought that masonry work on the
locks can be begun within ) months.
Last winter bids were requested and
received for doing the work of canal
construction by contract. None of them
was found to be satisfactory and all
were rejected. II is the unanimous
opinion of the present commission that

ernment than by private contractors
Fully so per cent. of the entire plant

chased or contracted for. machine
shops have been erected and eauipped
for making all needed repairs to the
plant, many thousands of employees
have been secured; an effective organi-
zatton has been perfected; Il recruiting
system is in operation which is capabl
of furnishing more labor than can be
used advantageously: employees are
well sheltered and well fed, salaries
paid are satisfactory. and the work is

GENEALOGY.

The Deseret News has started a
Genealogical column and in this on a
recent date mentions Logan people as
follows: perhaps the most interest
ing result Of this department was the
story told by a resident Of Logan.
There is a man there whose interest
In genealogy is absorbing and withal
utilitarian. This man, ParmeDio A.
Jackman, has been crippled In recent
years through paralysis. Since that,
his friends have put into his chamber
a telephone; and with the opening Of
this department, he at once began To
notify his friends Of the good tidings
for them contained In these pages.
Whenever any name is referred TO In
this column, which is associated with
any OF his acquaintance In Logan, he
at once calls them up on the phone
and asks them to get the News" and
read what Is there said. There Is more
than one lesson In this story.

How Gov. Bodweli Won.

Samuel W. Matthews, who has been
chief of the Maine bureau of Industrial
statistics since its establishment back
In the SOS. and who has held several
other Offices of trust, is very fluent
and impressive speaker.
In 1886, when there was a close con
test for the Republican nomination
for governor between DIR. Hamlin OF
Bangor and Joseph r. Bodwell OF Hal
lowell, Mr.. Matthews espoused the
cause of the latter. and at the con
vention made speech which brought
no little credit to himself.
Mr.. Bodwell had been spoken of as
a man with but a limited education
Mr.. Matthews referred to this "scath
ing criticism" in his nominating
speech, and said:
1T may be true that Mr.. Bodwel
is not highly educated man, but
he has shown conclusively that hi
knows how to make his mark"
AS Mr.. Bodwell was one of the
must successful business men In the
state, this allusion brought down tn,
convention, and many thought It wal
the means of nominating Mr.. Bod
well.

FRANKLIN.

FRANLIN, Idaho, March 1--we
are having little cold weather here
now. On last Sunday night we had
quite fall OF snow, and also on Mon
day night, and considerable snow Is on
the ground today. 1t has put our
farmers back In their blowing, and 1t
seems 1t is not over yet.
Business Is rather dull at present,
nothing much doing. We expect
franklin to be booming this summer,
as the appearances are that rich mines
will be discovered, for prospectors, l
understand, are preparing to come
and see what they can find. We hope
something will turn up to make times
more lively.
Last Sunday was fast day at Frank
lin, as the quarterly conference Of
Oneida Stake was held at Preston on
the regular fast day. They had a
splendid meeting. Elder Leslie Wick
ham, who had just come home from
his mission In the state OF Illinois and
who labored most OF his time In the
town Of Nauv0o, gave a good account
OF his labors In that town. He was
well treated by the people, and they
have a nice little branch OF the church
organized there with good Sunday
school, Improvement associations, and
good feeling prevails among the m
and the people. He said that some OF
the old settlers (which are few wished
the Latter.day Saints would come
back there to live again. Elder Wick
ham spoke we'll, and said that he en-.
joyed his mission very much. He looks
well and feels well, and Is pleased to
be home again with his family and
friends
Next month there will be an cleo.
tion held in Franklin for the purpose
OF electing village trustees. 1t seems
there will be two parties up for cleo.
ton, one being called the "Citizen's"
party, and the other the Peoples
party. Lively times are expected
The reason that they are having two
parties is that when there Is only one
set Of men up the citizens will not
turn out to vote, for they say when
there is only one party they will be
elected anyhow. The leading meu
think by having two parties the peo
pie will turn out to vote.
We still have some sickness among
US, but none very serious-some colds
and Ia grippe
Our schools are in good running or
der, especially our Sunday school. This
is we'll attended by officers, teachers
and pupils. Our meetings are also at
tended better than they have been,
New houses will be erected this sum
mer. S. w. Parkinson will build ;
fine house, and is hauling material To-
1t now. Ed Smith, our depot agent
is putting up nice house, some OF thu
material being on the ground already
/. II, Nash, county assessor, is GU
assessing the people.
