ward none and charity for all To this
Colonel Sterrett suggests that there shall

dant the words The Tooth anniversary of
Lincoln's birth. The 43d national en-
campmeut of the Grand Army of the Re
public"
SO that ideas may he obtained in ref
erenCe to this souvenir Colonel SteTrett
further suggests that the upper medallion
shall be a metal Grand Army eagle with
the crossed cannon ana balls. tnat on
one OF the CannOus shall be the words
salt Lake City. Utah and on the other
August GA. 1888 From the upper me-
dalton il is suggested there be hung by

appear the word Representa- tive" exc
cuted in nard enamel. and the letters
&C A r. in red. white and blue. best
hard enamel. Suspended from this pen
cant shall be z metal medallion repre-
senting the Sego lily in its natural color

vited to make suggestions in writing to
Colonel T. NJ. Sterrett.

GREEN RIVER is FORGING RAPIDLY TO
FRONT, SAYS RODERICK MCDONALD

ROderick Mcdonald, mayor Of Green
River, Utah, accompanied by his wife,
arrived in the city yesterday with big
bundle of boosts for his town and coun-
ty. and some real live news. He came
to confer with the Green River Develop
ment company here in regard to land
interests In his county. The Green
River Development company is selling
agent for the Green River Valley Land
& Water company, which is preparing
to irrigate $4,000 acres of land segre-
gated I'm that section of the country un-
der the Carey act.
The water to be used for this work is
to come from reservoirs in the noun
tains, and work on the reservoirs is now
in hand, $4,000 having already been ex-
pended on them. Mr.. Mcdonald said
that two gangs of engineers and helpers
are now in the mountains engaged in
work on reservoir plans The land
drawing date has not been set but an
effort will be made to get ready for it
about the first of June. The land with
the water viii go at s7o.5G an acre. and
Will be paid for on the ten-year plan.
our people are greatly interested
just now i'm the plans of the proposed
electric line from Green River south
through the San Rafael country to
Hanksvilie and the coal fields in that
section. The line will traverse the soon
to-be irrigated tract. which we consider
VIII become one of the very richest sec
tons of Utah. The survey for the line
has been completed and grading will
be commenced as soon as the weather
will permit. The line will be about six
ty miles in length. and the electricity

on the segregated land below.
I'VE are very proud of the growth of
Green River. 1t is jumping ahead re-
markably fast, and we expect to have at
least 5000 population at the end of the
next two years. The town has grown
from a population OF 100 two years ago
to more than 200 people now. A great
deal of building is going on, six or eight
big buildings being now in course of
construction. We have just completed
plans for a lighting system for the
town, and expect 10 have a water sys-
tenn soon. Green River has been made
division point of the Denver & Rio
Grande, and great things are certain on
that account The railroad company
has just moved into its new depot, a
fine building, and is now building a
large eating house on its property. The
company has an excellent yards site,
smooth and level and sixty acres ad-
joining on which the railroad will build
several large buildings. Work on a
twenty-four- stall round house, we have
been informed, will commence as soon
as the frost is out of the ground.
Snow. We haven't q bit of snow at
Green River now. We have regular
summer weather, and the winter has
been very mild. Our valley, you know,
is protected by the hills, aud we have
almost as mild a climate as Salt Lakers
go to California to enjoy. Within
few miles of US. however, north. east
or west, they have lots of snow. Com
ing to Salt Lake we found snow at

NEW WHOLESALE
DISTRICT PLANS
Mayor Approves Scheme of
Ogden SyndiCate-ls Still
for a City Market.

Mayor John S. BransfoTd yesterday
signed the recommendation of the mu-
nicipal laws committee accepting the
ws.he establishment of a market district
ton the west side, approving the plans
of the Ogden syndicate and commend
ing the enterprise. The mayor held up
the committees report for twenty-four
hours, but finding that it bound the
city to nothing, signed it.
Mayor Bransford is still of the opin-
ion that the city should have a city
market, run as such, and controlled by
the authorities. He is hopeful that the
deal with John w. Donellan for the
purchase of the property between Third
and Fourth South and State and Sec
ond East streets will go through. in
which case there will be plenty of
ground for a market, as well as city
stables and a storehOuse- The council
appropriated $4,000 for the purchase,
and the city holds an option on the
property, but Donellan has since been
offered $4,000 for the property, and
wants to get clear of the city's option.
Mayor Bransford believes. however.
that he can he held to his bargain, or
render himself liable TO a suit for dam
ages. He is therefore still holding to
the possibility of a city market there.
The mayor believes that the PROPOSE
ton of David Eccles, NJ. s. Browning
and Judge II. II, Rolapp of Ogden for
the establishment of a wholesale dis
trict between Second and Third South
and Second and Third West streets is a
good one, and to be commended. He
does not see that it would interfere with
any plans that may. be in prospect for
city market.

MURRAY FOLKS
ARE INSISTENT
Keep Commissioners Busy Re-
garding FiVe-Cent Fare in
New Franchise.

The county commissioners this week
are putting in considerable time on the
matter of the request of the Utah Light
& Railway company for a new fran
chise. Strong pressure is being brought
by the Murray people to have the COM
missioners insist on a scent fare. This
the company's representatives positive
ly refuse to consider.
After this refusal the Murray people
asked that a fixed time limit be set
when the fare shall be reduced. this to
be not more than five years. The COM
pany at present shows no disposition to
grant even this, and Commissioner
John c. Mackay. who has considerable
influence with his brother members OF
the board, is standing out for a ten
year limit. he is disposed To accept the
statement of the railway people that
they are doing enough when they prom
Use to make the extensions to Sandy and
Bingham Junction this year.
Murray people, however, are not dis
posed to agree with Mr.. Mackay and
the railway company, but point to the
fact that the cars on the Murray line are
always crowded and they assert that the
branch is really the best portion Of the
cOmpany's system. At least one of the
othef COMMISSIONERS taxes JHiS view,
and believes that the reduction should
be made, if not now, then at an earlier
date than ten years.
The franchise will be for twenty-five
years, and will give nothing to the
county beyond the Sandy and Bingham
junction extensions. The city receives
S25 a year for each car the company
operates over the streets. but the pres
ent board of county commissioners
seems disposed to take whatever the
company will give them.
Several Murray delegations have ap-
peared before the board, and the dues-
ton is a thoroughly live one in that
suburb.

WORK ON TWO NEW BRICKS.
Old Wooden Leader Building Moved Into Street
and Active Work on Two New
Store Buildings Begun,

Some time ago we reported
through these columns that two
new brick store buildings would
be erected on the southeast cor
ner of the square and this week
active work upon the construc-
tion was begun. House movers
have removed the old wooden
structure occupied by the Lead
er dry goods store from its old
location ont into the street, and
the worIlmcn have begun to take
away the surplus dirt on the two
lots 50 that the foundation for
the brick walls may be laid.
AS formerly described the
buildings are to have modern
