Water Users Vote
Or the Amendments
Great Meeting Unanimous. The Out
look Now Bright for these Valleys.

Well, the amendments carried with
pahgre Valley Water Users Associa-
ton at Olathe Monday.
There was about $4,000 acres voted
for the amendments. including home
steads, and but 30 acres voted against
the amendments. These, we under
stand, were two tracts, one of 20 and
the other of 10 acres. owned in Mont
rose county.
The matter of adoption of the amend
ments was settled unanimously. the
stock voted being about 1900 shares
more than was leagally required. This
was fully expected. the only fear be-
ing that, because of the widely scat
tered residence OF the locators, suffi-
cient amount of stock to legally carry
the amendments might not be repre-
sented in person and by proxy
But now the matter is settled and
the reclamation work can go ahead
with the Endorsement Of the locators
and an understanding that the amount
of expenditure by the government can
be reimbursed out of the land pay
ments.
The meeting at olathe Monday was
a good representation of American
citizenship. All questions. even to
that of possible cutting down of loca-
ton acreage to the individual, were
faced squarely and discussed earnestly,
but to the effect that the best the
situation shall eventually offer would be
accepted.

it contained misspelled words. The

INTERIOR DEPARTMENT
CALLS HASKELL A LIAR

NTSKOGEE. okla, Oct. 26,-A state
mcnt was received here today at the Of
flee of the commissioner or the five civ

at Washington with Instructions TO pub

Usage nation. directly concerned. and the

dent acted unfairly TO the Usage Indians
In the matter OF fixing the royalty for

ernor Haskells statements are deliberate
falsehoods: nor does he suggest q pos

is wilful. no reply viii be made TO him
personally. but President Roosevelt and
Secretary Garfield are not willing that
the Usage Indians should not know the
truth about these matters, In order that
they may not be deceived by Governor

about each OF the charges he makes
The statement takes up Haskell's

The statement concludes

THE CAUSE OF COLDS.
Good Advice Regarding the Prevention
Of Coughs and Colds.

If people would only properly fortify
and strengthen their system, about 9S
per cent Of coughs colds and pneumo~
MIA might be avoided. These troubles
arc simply the result Of weakness. which
produces a catarrhal condition of the
nal skin of the body. When this skin
is weakened. it becomes infected with
germs which are carried through the
system by the blood, These parasites
attack and break these delicate tissues
and set up soreness which produce
what is in reality an external scrofula.
The only thing that will cure coughs
and colds aud prevent pneumonia is a
medication which is absorbed and car
ried by the blood so that tho discased
membrane is disinfected, cleaned,
soothed and healed.
We have a remedy which we honestly
believe infallible and unsurpassable for
the prevention and cure of coughs. colds
and all catarrhal conditions. II is the
prescription of a famous physician, who
has an enviable reputation of so years
of cures gained through the use Of this
medicine We promise TO either effect
cure In every case or make no charge for
the medicine. We urge everybody In
Salt Lake who has need of such q medi-
cine to try Rexall Mucu-Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could not
afford to make such statements aud
give our own personal guarantee TO this
remedy if we were not absolutely posi-
tive that we could substantiate our
claim in every particular. and we see no
reason why anyone should hesitate to
accept our offer and try 1t. We have
two sizes of Re1all Mucu Tone. Prices
soc and $l00. Sometimes SOC bottle
is sufficient for a cure. AS a general
thing, the most chronic case is cured

Remember, the medicine will cost you
nothing If you are not satisfied in every

THANKSGIVING DINNER
FOR THE CITY'S POOR
Salvation Army Proposes to Aid
Hundreds Who Are
Needy.

A thorough plan has been mapped out
by Ensign Edward F. Baldwin OF the
Salvation Army for soliciting funds and
preparing the Thanksgiving dinner for
the poor OF Salt Lake City.
Beginning on the first of November a
corps of Salvation Army workers Will
make house to- house canvass OF the
residential section OF the city ana also
visit all the business houses, soliciting
funds for the serving OF the dinner.
Other than that. contribution boxes viii
be placed In prominent places, and mem
bers OF the army VIII be stationed on
the street corners with receptaclcs for
receiving money
In years past. the Salvation Army
workers, In their house-to- house can
as canned goods and vegetables, but this
year this will not be done. as. when these
gifts were all got together, there WAS
such a mixture OF foodstuffs that IL was
next to impossible TO assort them so that
they might be given out with any regu-
larity.
This year each solicitor will be equipped
with receipt book, and cash or orders
on groceryr1en will he accepted. and then
receipt given for the amount. In this
manner the workers In the army will
and will have system OF distribution.
Other than serving food at the Salvation
Army hall, at 1873 East Second South
street. baskets OF food will be prepared
and delivered to the homes OF the needy.
Tickets are now being printed 10 be
given away to those who arc to be fed
at the hall on Thanksgiving day. The
baskets to be sent out Will contain tur-
key or chicken, bread, butter coffee,
sugar. pie. cake. celery and fruit. Tie
dinner at the hall will consist of all the
things that go TO make a good Thanks
giving dinner. A year ago the Salvation
Army red nearly 1000 poor.
Tho Salvation Army has also a fund
for the caring for OF the poor during the
winter months, and the money that re-
mains from the amount solicited after
the dinner Is served Will be turned into
the general relief fund.
Ensign Baldwin Sunday evening. speak
ing about the efforts of the army in pre-
pairing the dinner. said that statement
would be made to The Tribune about the
amount received and the amount eNpen6-
ed. so the people of Salt Lake City who
give to this cause may see for what their
money has been used.
