GLAD TO BE SICK.

Salt Lake City is making an effort
to get everybody to yield up their poll
tax or pay the bill, and the office hav-
ing charge of the work has few
visitors each day who ask to beck
cused ON the ground that they are
suffering from appendicitis or are
threatened with it and are unable to
work.
The commissioner cannot tell
whether they have APPENDICITIS, and he
takes most of them at their word.

BIG CONNECTION is ON
In LITTLE IDAHO TOWN
Eighty Acres of Land in Heart of City
just Entered by Homesteader.

\ hurley, Idaho, Dec. 17.-Arthur
S. Miller of this place, while looking
, over the public land plats in United
States Commissioners De Mary's Of
flee at Rupert few weeks ago, dis
covered that two adjoining 4O-acre
tracts in the center of the town of
Oakley had never been entered under
the homestead or other public land
I laws, and forthwith made application
for the property, which is without
I doubt the most valuable homestead
y property ever entered in the state.
When the information became pub
lie there was general commotion
among property owners who have had
adwellings and business blocks erected
on the land for number of years.
The land office at Haley is besieged
with inquiries regarding the recent
Milling, and, as far as any one is able
to learn, Miller's application is valid,
land if he complies with the home
#stead laws the property will become
his in the course of time. Papers ac-
acknowledging the entry have been re-
eGeived from Washington, and all
}those who have erected buildings on
the premises find themselves in an
Embarrassing position. They cannot
8buy the sites on which their buildings
Fare erected, neither can they sell
their present holdings, so it is "up to
kthem to move.'
Among the business houses and
residences erected on the land are
the opera house, L. d. S. Fourth ward
meeting house, two residences be-
longing to S. P. Worthington, two
residences belonging to Bishop D. P.
Thomas, the Oakley Herald office,
IS. F. Worthingtons mercantile
store, Nelson's pavilion, Olson's bar
Der shop, the Oakley pharmacy, Gar
ringe & Reed harness shop, Hale G
Dayley implement house, and several
other residences.

THE CANAL TROUBLES
May BE SETTLED
Basis OF Adjustment Has Been Agreed
Upon.
From American Falls Press.

From American Falls Press.
A basis for settlement of the con
troversies between the American
Falls Canal and Power Company ant
the Canal association was reached a,
a meeting held at Salt Lake Monday
between the officers of the company
and President c. w. Brown of the
canal association and the attorney fol
the latter. President Brown is con-
fident that fair adjustment of the
differences will be secured without
recourse to the courts. Some of the
matters, it is understood, will be
laid before the state land board upon
an agreed statement of fact, and
Others settled by arbitration or agree
ment between parties concerned. A
meeting between representatives of
the company and the canal associa-
ton will be held in the near future
either at Aberdeen or American Falls,
when the work of adjustment will be
furthered.
The settlement made will include
only those who are members of the
association, or who have contributed
toward the expense of employing an
attorney.
Some Of the questions involved are
the delivery of water at an available
point within half mile of the point
of intended use, enforcement of pay
ments where water was not delivered,
Or compensation for damages sus-
-ained by reason of the failure to de-
liver water. Information obtainable
IS only general, but the foregoing is
believed to be substantially true
statement of the terms of the tenta-
i've agreement.
Those who are not members will
lave to make their own adjustments.
The officers of the association, with
he vast amount of details they will
AVE to look after, arising from the
asses of the members of the associa-
ion, feel that they cannot afford the
lme or expense to take up the cases
f the outsiders.

In the coming election Durham
county is entitled to the State
Senator from this senatorial dis
trict. The Democratic Execu-
tive committee, so it is reported,
decided not to have a candidate
in the primary. but leave this
nomination to the convention.
Just why such a departure for
this position is made, we are not
informed, but Durham Democrats
have plenty of good material,
and it is to be hoped that a
choice will be made from some
of the best.

little has been said about candi-

T lis is an important position

county as the people ask for it,
and not men that will go directly

as the present board have done.
