PARTY ENJOYS A TRIP IN
ORCHARD.

Salt Lake. June 27,-Whatever
doubts may have fingered in the
minds OF certain party of men from
Salt Lake and Brigham City with re-
gard to the greatness Of Utah as n
fruit state were dispelled Friday af-
ternoon by trip to the orchards of
the Honeyville Orchards company in
the wonderfully fertile Bear river
valley.
in the party which made an lnspcc.
ton trip through the fruit bearing
zone north of Brigham City were ]
Edward Taylor, secretary of the
State Horticultural commission. some
Salt Lake newspaper men. C. S Holm
quist of the American Colonist and
Trust company. all of Salt Lake, and
Joseph f. Hansen, Chris Simensen,
w, II. Boothe, Jr., R Kaiser. Lorenzo
Stohl, Joseph Zimmerman and M. A.
Boothe, all OF Brigham City. The trip
was made in Joseph Zimmerman
automobile, and the outing was both
educational and enjoyable.
1t seems that nature intended the
Bear river valley for fruit raising.
This section OF the country is the
equal Of any other for the culture of
fruits and berries. AS the plains Of
the DakoJas were made for wheat
fields and the praries of Kansas for
waving walls of corn" so this Bear
river valley country seems to have
been especially created for the grow
ing fruit trees and especially apples.

HAL BROWNS HORSE WINS FOR
HIM IN THE EAST.
Ginger Creates Stir, and With Don
Captures Sixteen Prizes for
Salt Lake Man.

Utah horse is making the hit
OF the season on the eastern trotting
circuits, according to letters received
from Hal w. Brown of Salt Lake City.
Mr.. Brown purchased the horse. Gin
ger, from Colonel Ed. Loose Of Provo,
and another. Don, from Tom Mccoy
oil Salt Lake and took them east.
where their work has been the fea-
ture OF the various meetings held dur
ing the spring.
Ginger Is Utah horse, Of whose
antecedents but little is known. He
was discovered" in the Grass Valley
country, where numerous horses with
last records and good pedigrees have
been turned out. but his pedigree Is
almost entirely unknown, 1t being
supposed that he comes Of some of
the blooded stock in that region. as he
certainly shows good breeding.
The horse Don was purchased by
Tom Mccoy to race against Ginger
on Utah tracks. but the owners of
the latter horse did not enter him
and there were no races here In
which Don was eligible. so Mccoy
sold him to Brown, who took the two
horses east Botn horses are PAGERS.

Brown writes that about two weeks
ago he drove Ginger a mile over
halfmile track in EOS 1-2, and the
same afternoon drove Don over the
same track in 2:0S Sd. Brown saws
that this is the worlds record for
the performance. and says that there
is no horse owner OF two PAGERS that
has ever driven two horses in one
day In such fast time over a half
mile track before the fifteenth day
of June. Brown is confident that he

SOUTHERN UTAH
COAL MEASURES

Ricbheld, June 27-William Ford.
one of the early settlers Of southern
Utah, was here last Friday. MI Ford 8
home is In Cedar City now, although
he has spent forty years OF his life
at kannarra, and has rode the range
In that section until every nook and
Granny in the mountains for a hun.
dred miles Is known to him.
He Is booster for this section
and expects to see some wonderful
changes In that country now that
railroad Is promised and is pretty
sure OF being constructed. He says,
speaking of crop condition, that there
are splendid prospects and grain will
be ready for cutting in about three
weeks. The fruit crop is not dam
aged to the extent that was first re.
ported and that there will be an
abundance Of apples and plums, but
peaches will be scarce.
Mr. Ford talked of the immense de.
posits Of coal in that country and said
that he could trace the vein for a
hundred miles. The Harmony coal
veins have been pronounced anthra-
cite coal, and he says the mountains
are scanned and ribbed with coal.
The coal measures of southern Utah
are just beginning to be known.
Since the strong indications OF 4
railroad for that country have been
noticed there Is an activity among
the people to acquire much of the
available coal land There are many
small mines In operation for supply
ing the towns of the district. but
no attemupt has ever been made to
develop the coal veins owing 10 the
long distance from a railroad
At ST George harvesting Is on in
full blast and the second crop OF lu-
cerne Is being cut. Fruit is ripening
and altogether things are humming.
Mr.. Ford went on to Sigurd to |
visit his two sons who are living |
there. One of them Is engaged at |
the Jumbo companys mill. The boys !
like this country and the father want
ed to see them in their new location. |

PLEA FOR A
BET 7 E R
OGDEN
JOSEPH S. PEERY FOR NEW LIo-
uoR ORDINANCE.
Makes Urgent Appeal to Citizens to
Demand Higher License and
Stricter Regulations.

| In an open letter to the citizens of
Ogden. Joseph S. Peery writes as fol-
lows:
am told that this evening an or
dinance for higher license and strict
er regulations of saloons will be
voted on by the city council.
Citizens of Ogden. something
should be done to obviate the evils
of this extremely open city. These
wide open temptations are inviting
the boys unmolested. and now it is
high time to do something to lessen
the evils. The saloon license is now
$1,000 Il year. The new ordinance
makes II S1,50C-the same as Salt
Lake and Brigham City. After the
Legislature adjourned the license was
raised in Salt Lake to S1,500, which
resulted at once in closing eight of
? the dives.
In Ogden Nhere are over fifty sa-
1oons-cntirely too many for the
number of inhabitants Mothers. do
you not think this number should
be cut down 10 at least half. by a
higher license?
The new ordinance gives the chief
more authority. keeps habitual
drunkards out of the saloons. and
closes the saloons al an earlier hour
Saloon men themselves should ia.
vor this new ordinance. If they con-
tinuc III opposing this new ordi-
nance and succeed. leagues should
be organized in Ogden to elect an
antrsaloon city council. with a view
TO closing all the saloons. No good
comes to the community from sa-
looms. A new and numerous crop of
drunkards is made every year from
boys visiting saloons and acquiring
the drinking habit. Boys who do get
this SALOON habit lose then reputa-
ton, their time, their money. their
health and strength, and their busi-
ness prospects. They had far better
burn their money than spend it over
the bar.
II we cannot have prohibition at
present, by all means let us have
better regulations and higher license. |
If this fails, then let the movement |
be started for the entire eradication |
of the saloons from our fair city.
JOSEPH S. PEERY.

Samuel kearns of American Fork Fat

American Fork, June 27.-What may
have been attempted murder or sui
eide, or plain accident, was disclosed
when the battered, bloody and uncon-
scious form of Samuel Kearns OF this
city was discovered lying beside the
Salt Lake Route tracks here this
morning.
The position and situation of the
body with relation to the rails show
ed that Kearns had either been as
saulted and beaten into insensibillty
By enemies or robbers, who had after
wards laid his body on the track VITA
the flendish purpose Of hiding their
crime, or that KeaTns may have been
intoxicated and fallen asleep on the
track. 1t Is also possible that he may
nave become i'll, and that he fell on
track in fainting spell Mystery
