Wednesday afternoon it started to
rain gently. The rain was not accom-
panied by any wind to indicate a
genuine winter storm. During the
night it continued to rain at intervals
and also Thursday. The precipitation
was very slight, and has done little
more than wet the ground sufficient
to lay the dust for few hours. The
rainfall is as follows:

Must Pay Coin
to the State

County Treasurer GIltton a few
days ago received letter from State
Controller Nye and Treasurer Will
Jams that the act passed by the legis-
lature in extraordinary session had
no effect whatever on the payment
by the various counties of the state,
and that they would have to be paid
as usual between the fifteenth and
the thirtieth of this month. The
letter has been sent to all county
treasurers, tax collectors and auditors
because of the many requests for in
formation on that score. In some
counties this will work a hardship,
for large number of people will
wait until after the sixty three days
of grace before paying their taxes.
But they will have to make the best
of it, and do what they are able To-.
In this county property holders have
paid their taxes up fairly we'll. With
the exception of one small company,
the railroads have not paid to the
state treasurer the amounts due from
them for state and county taxes. The
apportionment to the counties will
be made at the usual time.
Don't think that piles can't be
cured. Thousands of obstinate cases
have been cured by Doan's Ointment.

to the latest report is much i'm

BOOSTING FOR
The PRESIDENT
Warren of Wyoming Says the
People of That State Are Pro-
nOunced Third TermerS.
CLARK THINKS OTHERWISE
YOUNG CUTLER ANSWERS FOR
GOVERNOR.
(speciaI to The HeraId)

Washington, Sept. Ex-senator Warren
IN a recent interview declared that an
overwhelming sentiment in Wyoming was
favorable to the denomination of Pres
ident Roosevelt. His colleague, Senator
Clark, when interviewed here, expressed
a different view. Senator Clark sizes
up the Wyoming situation as follows:
''The people Of Wyoming are not talk
ing much politics at present Out in
Wyoming, as IN other sections Of the
west, people are making money and en-
Toying such a season OF prosperity that
they are bOthering very little about pol
tics. We have followers of Fairbanks
and Knox and, Of course, there are a
great many people who favor the nom
nation OF President Roosevelt. but pol
tiles with us Is an incident and not an
absorbing passion at this particular juno
ture. The way in which Senator KnOx's
candidacy has taken among westerners,
however, is one Of the oddities of the
political situation that 1 am unable to
explain. / am engaged in operating a
small mine, where l have probably forty
men at work. 1 have never talked pol
iucs with the miners nor has any liter
azure been distributed among them that
] know of. yet il was recently reported
TO me that at least half of the men had
declared thei1 preference for Knox for
president OF course here in the east
where Senator Knox is well known. one
can understand why he should have de-
voted followers, but among miners in the
far west. where he is not known, I am
unable to explain why the senator or
any other candidate under similar cir
Cumstances should be so generally sup
ported. The fact would seem 10 indi-
cate that the people are doing their own
thinking"
The New York World has been So
liciting the views of prominent men all
over the country as to the third term
movement, especially as it applies to
President Roosevelt In answer 10 an
inquiry sent Governor Cutler of Utah.
the governors secretary sent the World
the following statement:
in the absence of Governor Cutler, who
Is out OF the state, 1 make reply to
your letter relative to the governor s
Views on the third term idea The gov
ernor has previously stated, in answer to
a similar question, his position on this
matter, and ] quote his statement:
In my opinion the question of third
term does not enter here at all, as Pres
ident ROOseVelts first term was an ac-
cident caused by the death Of President
Mckinley. but even if 1t was a question
of a third term / should be in favor of
the reelection Of Theodore Roosevelt in
1905
From this statement you will be able
to judge what his answer would be to
your question

Secretary to the Governor"

STRIKE OF TELEGRLPHERS
New York Union Votes to Call Out
All Leased Wire Operators,
Regardless of Contracts.

New York, Sept 25.-The New York To-
cal Of the Commercial Telegraphers'
union voted tonight to call out all leased
wire operators employed by the press
and brokers' offices in this city, If such
action shall be sanctioned by the national
officers. Action by the national officers
will be awaited before anything further
/ is done. It was voted also to ask the
national officers to issue a call for the
brokers and press telegraphers through
out the country to quit work. The de-
mand upon the men who are now work
ing under contract is made in the inter
ests OF those who have struck against
the Western Union and Postal Telegraph
companies.
Daniel l. Russell chairman of the strike
committee, who until today had opposed
the movement for sympathetic strike.
tonight made a vigorous speech in which
he reversed his position and declared
that eXpediency demanded such a war
measure as was proposed.
Chester L Hall. chairman of the Wall
street chapel. opposed the motion. but was
frequently interrupted and finally. &C
knowledged that he could not stem the
tide against him, desisted in his attempt
to present the matter from the viewpoint
of the Wall street operators
An amendment introduced by John c.
McClOskey of the Hearst News service,
exempting the operators of leased wires
who were bound by contracts signed six
months previous to the strike of the COM
mercial men. was defeated amid much
cheering, and the original resolution pass
ed with little opposition. The local strik-
ers await the sanction of their action by
President S. ]. Small. who is now in Chi
cago. This approval they expect, and
when such is received they will immedi-
ately set a date when the press and Wall
street men shall be called out
After the meeting Chairman Russell said
if the present course was not effective
the railroad operators would be called
upon to quit work. He said:
There can be no doubt as to the ac-
ton of Wall street men. Some of them
will protest for a day or two, perhaps,
but by Monday they will all be with us
Some of the more conservative among
the operators who attended tonight's
meeting were not inclined to discuss the
probable outcome The feeling was gen.
eral, however that President Small would
approve of the latest move and call upon
the press and broker men to quit work
Chicago. Sept 25.-The national Off
GERS Of the telegraphers' union declined
tonight to express an opinion as to
whether they would sanction the strike
voted by the New York local
"A special convention may be called
to take up the matter when it comes
before us officially" said National Sec
rotary Wesley Russell. He added that
similar action had been taken by about
ten locals in different parts of the coun-
try.

CHARGES CRUEL CONDUCT,
Mrs. Florence Stewart Asserts That
Her Husband Was Abusive.

Charging that on April 10 last her
husband struck her in the face, threat
ened to kill her and otherwise abused
her, and that on Sept. 20 he repeated
the performance, and if he had not
been restrained by others would have
seriously injured her, Mrs. Florence
Stewart yesterday asked the district
court for a divorce from Henry Stew
art The complaint alleges in addition
that the husband has during the past
year treated his wife in a uniformly
cruel and inhuman manner.

Oldest of which is II. The wife asks
for the custody of the children and $3.50
attorneys fees.

Card of Thanks.

Mrs. T. c. Smith wishes to thank
the many friends of her family for
their sympathy and kindness to her
and to her family during the last i'll
ness of her daughter Bessie, whose
funeral was held on Tuesday last.
The flowers which were sent as last
tributes from many friends were beau
tiful and of such a number as to tes-
tify to the enduring bonds of affection
she was able to form. They were APP
preciated as a mother appreciates tri-
butes to the memory of departed
daughter at the moment Of bereave-
ment.
Mrs. Smith and her family hope that
the aid and comfort of those who were
kind to them in their sorrow will be
returned many fold. That their loved
one was cherished and will be missed
in other homes than their own Is a
consolation in a time Of great sorrow.

WILL NOT GRANT NEW TRIAL
Judge Armstrong Decides That a
Juror Cannot Impeaeh His
Own Verdict.

That a juror cannot impeach his own
verdict was the decision yesterday of
Judge Armstrong, when Harry S. Har-
per, attorney for John Fleming, con-
victed of robbery, moved for a new trial
on the grounds of an affidavit from
Former Mayor Morris, foreman of the
jury which convicted Fleming, to the
effect that his mind was made up be-
fore any evidence for the defense was
submitted.
The court also OVerruled the sugges-
ton that it erred in passing on the mo-
ton to instruct the jury to bring in a
verdict of not guilty in the presence
of the jury.
Fleming was convicted of robbing
Deputy Sheriff Ira Beckstead of a re-
vOlyer at Bingham Junction. He was
sentenced to three years.
