IDAHO AND UTAH UNITE
Wool Growers of Both States Refuse
To Sell Under Present Pan
icky Conditions.

Utah wool growers say they are
sure they will eventually win out by
holding their products until the pres
ent shakey market is overcome. Ida
no has taken the same stand as the
following from the Boise Capital News
indicates;
Reports received this week from
the various sheep shearing camps in
the southern part of the state on
and tributary TO the Oregon She rt
Line indicate that the average clip
is being made and that the wool Is of
a very much finer quality than usual.
This would indicate that sheepmen
will realize a good market price for
their wool. regardless of the fact that
there is a movement on foot by cast
ern buyers to offer a low price and
stick TO it.
The first clipping, in which thous-
ands of head of sheep were involved,
took place at Bruneau and samples OF
the wool which were brought to Boise
indicate the quality is very fine. Lo-
cal sheermen state that they have
received reports from various other
sheer camps in the northwest. which
are to the effect that The same good
quality of wool is being realized.
While few sheep owners have
consigned their wool his year, this
does not Indicate that they will not
receive a good price. on the con-
trary, many who have done this 5X-
pect to obtain fairly high prices on
eastern markets and their wool will
be shipped there and held by eastern
buyers until the price that the owner
wants is offered. AS a large number
of the sheep owners are independent
ly rich, they can afford TO wait until
their wool brings the price they are
after, Others. who consigned tteir
clip, expect TO come out with a very
reasonable profit.
While the sheepmen of Idaho in
tend to receive the best possible price
that they can from eastern buyers they
viii endeaVor to have them come into
the northwest territory and bid for
the clip. In Utah the sheepmen in
tend TO hold the entire wool clip this
year until the price they want is re-
ceivod In other words, they prefer
to combine against the eastern buy
ers, who they have reason TO believe,
have formed combination IN prices
and Intend TO attempt To buy the wool
clip on these prices, which are not
thought to be reasonable.

RETAIL TRADE
IS JUST FAIR
Seasonable Weather Causes
Better Demand for Light
weight Wearing Apparel.
STILL WAITING ON THE CROPS
Haven't Made Enough Progress To
Encourage Normal Preparations
For Future Business.

New York, April PAR. c. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade tomor-
row will say;
Lightweight wearing apparel is in
better demand in response to more sea-
sonable weather, but retail as a while
shows little alteration and the crops
have not made sufficient progress to
encourage normal representations of
the future business III wholesale and
jobbing departments. Payments are
Il little more prompt owing to the ease
of money.
Dizziness continues in the iron and
steel industry, the outlook for the year
being indicated by a deduction in the
estimate of ore shipments to 2O,0O0OOO
tons.
Several mills have resumed, including
some of the leading rail plants, bat
these are not started at more than one
third full capacity. Light receipts OF
cattle and increased tanning by pack
ers supply greater strength in the do
nestle hide market, nearly all varie-
ties advancing more or less.

RECORD or THE PAST.

The question naturally arises, what
about the bond issue of 1905? Was tho
money raised at that time expended
for the purposes intended? Echo an
swers no. The bonds were voted un-
der the Morris administration. The
plans for the expenditure We're made
under the Morris administration Who
spent the money? The American
administration, and it is interesting to
figure out how they spent 1t.
The Morris administration planned to
spend the money as follows:
Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1908-04-25
Total ...... 80.


Nearly Sl0O.OO0 more was expended
upon the big conduit than was appor-
toned for that purpose; the cost of
the intercepting sewer win exceed the
estimates in the end about $22.0O0. and
this with the fact that there is an
overdraft of more than $4,000 star
ing the city in the face from the eX-
penses of last year. So the question
arises, win the money raised by the
proposed 100000 bond issue be used
for making the improvements recon-
mended by the mayor?
After the issue is authorized, the city
officials will probably do what they like
with the money.

Judge Cochran Warns Police
man Not to Bring Any
More Such Cases

Alfred L. Gilbert, charged with vio-
lating the city ordinance by obstruct-
ing the highway, was discharged by
Judge Cochran in the City Court to-
day, and the court criticised officer
Purcell for making the arrest, and in
structed him not to bring any mora
such cases in court. The officer said
his attention was called to Gilbert by
a police commissioner and Judge Coch-
ran replied, that 1t made no difference
If ten commissioners spoke about 1t.
Gilbert was the man who took Nine.
Nordica, the prima donna to the Opera
House, in a cab, and waited outside
Of the theatre with the carriage, on
orders of Nine. Nordica. He was told
to move on by officer Purcell. but re-
fused to leave. He was then arrested.
officer Purcell testified today that
his attention was called to the defend 3
ant standing outside the theatre with
his carriage by a police commissioner.
The witness said the cab was not
standing on the crossing but added that
no carriages could drive up to the thea
tire while Gilbert stayed there. The
officer made the statement that T.
Coleman DUPONT had to drive way be-
low the theatre to get out Of his car
riage.
well he's no better than anybody
else" said Judge Cochran. Hes not
the whole city. Any person has a right
to tell a cabman to wait outside a
place If he pays for it. Don't bring
any more such cases in this court.
There is no ordinance covering this case
and it is, therefore, dismissed.

'Now Mr.. Leisen we will say to you
that the bonds run from 1908 TO 1921,
a period Of fourteen years. what will
the average to pay on on these bonds
year."
About $4,000 a year"
THAT will be the amount you will
have to provide for the sinking fund
each year, will it not?"
yes"
"Then II that Is the case how are
you going to provide for the payment
Of $2SS,50O Of bonds that will fall due
/ in 1902"
Nat Self Sustaining.
Mr.. Leisen said II always was his
idea that the department should not
have to pay off any of the bonds ex-
cept those of recent years.
Don't you think the department
should be self-sustaining?
Il do"
Don't you think It should be placed
on basis whereby it could be made
self sustaining?"
Il think 1t is self-sustaining and has
been for many years." said Mr. Leisen.
Not Self Sustaining.
We'll. we Will show you that It is
not and has not ben self -sustainfsS. ("
remarked City Solicitor Townsend.
He then questioned Mr. Leisen as to
the pumpage of the water system
through meters and the revenue at the
present meter rate.
What would you receive per million
gallons pfnped at that rate?" Mr.. Lei
sen was asked.
"A little over S45."
Then, taking care OF the sinking
fund requirements on an average for
1908 YOU are selling water to consumers
who are using 10000 cubic feet at a
loss of SIS per million gallons, to saw
nothing about depreciation or contin-
gencies. Does that indicate that the
department is -sustaining?"
1T does not If the bonded indebted
ness is charged against this depart
lment."
You have said the rate should be
80 figured as to take care of the bond
ed indebtedness. If Il does not do II
in this department then the people will
have to pay it?"
Yes"
What would be the percentage OF
depreciation in this Department."
Mr.. Leisen said that was a broad
lquestion. as some depreciation would
lbe high and it would be low on other
things. He thought two per cent
might be an average, or about $4,000
a year on the value of the plant.
How much on the million agllons
lpumped?"
About S15"
Mr.. Townsend remarked that the
lime Of questions followed had been to
point out the danger Of continuing the
department along the present basis OF
system without knowing essential de-
tails or the real standing Of the de-
lpartment He said he intended to pur-
lsue the questioning further along all
1.-THE lines and wished Mr. Leisen to be
prepared to answer.

HUNGRY THIEVES
AT TOWNSEND

Thieves are busily engaged in Town
send. and the inhabitants OF that town
are agitated. Since Saturday several
houses have been entered, including
that Of the Rev. T. c. McSorley, and
various articles taken, but nothing Of
any great value.
The thieves appear to be a hungry
bunch, for in every instance almost,
where they succeeded in gaining an
entrance. they took food away with
them. Last night they got into the
home Of Joseph Pritchard and carried
OF a dish Of eggs, a part of a cake
of butter and bread that had been pre-
pared for this mornings breakfast.
Il is believed that there are two
thieves working the town. At least
two men were seen TRYING TO get into
house on Sunday by some boys and
were frightened on The robbers are
believed to be buns and a sharp
lookout VIII be kept for them
