HERE ARE VIEWS
OF H. NJ. MENUS
His Opinions Differ From Those
of Colonel Frank Nj.
Sterrett.
WRITES TO FISHER HARRIS
HE COMPLIMENTS SALT LAKE
COMMITTEES WORK.

That Past COmmander-in-Ch Chief H. NJ.
Nevius of the G. A. r. entertains views
regarding the conduct of the G. A. r.
encampment in this city entirely at
variance with those said to have been
expressed by Colonel Frank NJ. Sterrett,
executive director, in an interview be-
fore leaving the city, is shown by a
letter to Fisher S. Harris, secretary of
the executive committee. The letter
follows:
My Dear Mr.. Harris: I returned
home last week, tired and weary, from
the duties. fatigue and worries of the
forty-third national encampment held
at Salt Lake, and after resting a few
days, find myself very much improved,
and think that 1 will soon be my old
self again.
And, now that the encampment is
over, we can look over the ground. and
l want to say to you in all frankness
that the executive committee and the
citizens generally of Salt Lake made
the encampment a complete success;
while it was not so large as some pre-
vious encampments, the delegate en-
eampment was larger than we have had
for some years; there being about $50
more delegates than were present
Everything was done that could be
done to make comfortable and enter
tain the large crowd that you had there
Turing that week. And, I want to say
that 1 did not have a single complaint
from any department in relation to the
conduct of your committee and TIE citi-
zens generally; and the encampnent OF
the G. A. r., in session, passed a resO-
luton thanking your committee and the
citizens for the royal entertainment and
cOurtesies you extended to the Grand
Army of the Republic and its allied or
CARNATIONS
I am glad, indeed, to say this to you
because was fearful at one time that
you would have more than you could
Jake care of, and so far as I could see
all your committees worked in perfect
accord and harmony, and all doing all
IN their power for the comfort and en-
'ertalnment of your visitors.
I was sorry, indeed, that you were
not able to open the semi-Official meet
ing of the encampment, and I was also
sorry that my condition was such that
1 was not able to take my full part al
that meeting. 1t was the finest and
most enjoyable official meeting that the
Grand Army Of the Republic has ever
held, due largely to the capacity of the
tabernacle. Yours most truly,
II. NJ. MENUS,
Past COMMANDMENT Chief G. A. R.

Utah Apples Bring High prices.

Nearly everyone east, who has been
fortunate enough to secure apples grown
in some Of the favored western localities,
has noticed a difference between them
and apples grown in the middle west.
They see at a glance that western APP
pies take on a much brighter color, and
if they know the true difference, they
realize that the sugar content also in
creases. They note the texture and see
that the flesh is firmer than usual that
the fruit has in consequence more carry
ing capacity and. summing all these
points before them at once, realize that
such apples are worth many times as
much per box as those to which they
have been accustomed, and are more
willing to purchase them.
The Trenton Cache valley orchards
are ideally located for fine quality pro-
ductiOn. The product from them will
yield a handsome yearly return. The
United Development association, 515
Newhouse building, will send free full
information about apple growing in this
great district.

AUSTIN'S NAME
COMES OFF LIST
Citizens Had No Authority to
Elect Delegates in the
Sixth District.
KNEW NOTHING ABOUT 1T
GEORGE AUSTIN is ANGRY BE-
CAUSE OF LIBERTY TAKEN.

Although he was out of the city and
had not been consulted in the matter OF
even approached by members of the so
called Citizens party, yet George Aus
tin of the Utah-IdahO Sugar company,
and a well known sheep raiser Of Salt
Lake, was named Friday night as del
egate to the city convention of the Citi-
zens' party from the Sixth district. And
he is not pleased about it.
In fact, Mr.. Austin is positive In his
declarations that no one had any au-
thOrity whatsoever to use his name in
connection with the Citizens party, and
further asserts that he will not serve as
delegate. He resides in the district
from which he was named, and knew
nothing about the matter until he no
ticed his name among those printed in
The Herald-Republican yesterday morn
ing.
You can say for me-" declared Mr..
Austin, chat 1 will have nothing to do

Of their meetings and heard some things
said there that approved of. But that

if there is such a party. No one had
authority to make use of my name. ]
am a Republican, and always have
been. do not care to have my name
used as a delegate in every little party
that may spring up. Why, 1 was alb
sent from the city Friday, and did not
know that 1 had been mentioned. You
can say for me that Twill have nothing
to do with the new party, and do not
wish any party to use my name as a
delegate until I have authorized it to
do so"

a combination OF two separate systems
The reason was that naval regulations
compelled the giving OF at least GER

was using actually allowed less to a

At later date. on another ship, the
