A DANGEROUS BILL.


Senate bill No IL, by J.. Y. Smith. is
a dangerous measure in that it is
lengthy and attempts to amend the
laws Of the state bearing on irriga-
ton. the appropriation of water and
such associated subjects as reservoirs,
ditches, priority rights, etc. and places
In the hands Of the state engineer jul
dlcial powers, making that official al
most master OF the water resources of
the state.
There Is so much radical legislation
proposed in the bill that it is neces-
sary to consider it with great care in
order to guard against grave mistakes,
Generally these measures, ostenslbly
serving a good purpose. are loaded
down with "jokers"
No great Irrigation enterprise would
be attempted under the proposed law
owing TO the arbitrary power placed IN
the hands of the state engineer, whose
whim or caprice could ruin such un-
dertakings without due process OF law.
Heavy fees are provided. which, II
found necessary In any degree, would
be excessive. There is bid for the
state engineer to graft on all appro-
priators and juggle with dates OF ap-
plication or completion or proof or
beneficial use OF water,
No irrigation enterprise could be
started with any assurance of rights
to be acquired until after the state
engineer had given his dictum and
then. there would be ever present the
danger of reversal of rulings which
is provided for In this bill. The un-
certainty would keep out of Utah all
capital which. under more favorable
conditions, might be invested In big
irrigation schemes The investments
of irrigation companies are attended
by risks sufficiently great without ar,
tlfically increasing them in the man.

MRS. STIRLING TALKS
IN HER OWN DEFENSE.

Edinburg. Feb 2-The Stirling di-
vorce case today entered upon the
third week OF Its hearing.
Mrs Stirling continued to deny the
allegations made by her husbands
lawyers. Several times she broke
down as she unfolded the story OF her
marriage The Objectionable attitude
of Douglas Stirling, her husbands
brother. so irritated the witness that
she broke out in a heated denuncia-
tlon and at the suggestion OF the pre-
siding jurge. Douglas Stirling left the
room.
Mrs. Stirling characterized as
dreadful lies all the allegations or
misconduct with Lord Northland, and
she fatty denied that she had prom
ised to give q confession to an at
torney for Mr.. Stirling, who talked
with her after her return from Amer
lea in August of last year.
There was nothing TO confess" she
declared.
Continuing. the witness said that
the statement made by Mrs Atherton
last week that che (Mrs. Stirling) had
DnTCDaBeu GbNOlNel uuu ueCldl GU
that she would shoot Lord Northland
unless he married her, WAS a fabrI-
cation. She admitted having pur-
chased a revolver after she had left
her husband, and said she was go
miserable that she had contemplated
taking her own life.
There has been throughout a con-
splracy to get rid OF me by hook or
crook" she declared There is abso-
lutely no foundation for the stories OF
improper conduct with Lord North
land, but even If / had been guilty.
no one would or could have blamed
me, for II ever woman was thrown
at a mans head / have been thrown
at the head of Lord NoTthland.'
In the cross-examinatlon Mrs. Stir
ling admitted driving and being alone
with Lord Northland. She said this
was due In measure TO her love OF
him. but largely out OF piQue aroused
by the neglect Of her husband.

MINING NEAR DAWSON.

Mining In the Klondlke is not rs
primitive as 1t was In the early stages
OF the mining excitement ten years
ago. The district around Dawson,
twenty-five by City miles, has pro
duced s125. 100000 and. with moderE
mining appliances, promises to double
that amount.
Consul Cole at Dawson, reporting
in the district, says;
The most Of the placer Grayels In
this district arc frozen from the sur
face TO bedrock. which In places is
500 feet deep The pioneer miner put
down his shaft by fire made of wood
upon the frozen ground, which thawed
1t for few inches in depth, and the
gravel was then removed and washed,
and the same process repeated until
bedrock was reached, then he driTted
along bedrock, where the richest grav'
els are found, using the same process
of thawing and washing as before,
and hoisting the gravel by hand
windlass; but later steam was used
for thawing and hoisting.
The thawing is now done by steam
points which are steel pointed pipes
or tubes of various lengths through
which the steam passes, being con-
veyed by means of a hose. These
points are Inserted slowly into the
frozen gravel, thawing for radius
OF about three feet to each point, and
to depth of one foot the hour. IN
this way only the richer gravels we're
worked, leaving the greater part OF
the ground containing lower grade
grayels not worked, which Is estimated
to contain as much gold as the ground
which has formerly been worked.
or recent years the latest improved
mining machinery and appliances are
being used, such as hydraulics, dredGes
and elevators, and by these improved
methods the same ground is being
worked over again. and also lower
grade gravel of virgin ground, all Of
which pays large dividends.
Within the last five years dams
have been constructed in the creeks
and smaller streams for the purpose
of storing water produced by the
melting SHOWS of spring for use during
the summer. From these dams mains
are laid into the placer fields, where
the gold bearing gravels are washed
by means of the hydraulic process,
The largest hydraulic plant is the
one constructed by the Yukon Gold
company The ditch takes It's water
from Tombstone river. branch OF
Twelve Mile river which has It's
source in the Rocky mountains. 1t Is
constructed of open ditch, fumes, and
penstocks around hills and mountains

canyons by means OF steel pipes from

trip did not show any pronounced
anti-Japanese sentiment entertained

The emperor public announced upon
his return that he had been Afforded
great pleasure by his opportunity to
see for himself the conditions under
which his people lived. While at Ping
Yang he granted an audience to the
leading missionaries discussing their
work with them.
Prince Ito made frequent speeches
during the tour and on more than one
occasion he boldly told his hearers
there was no chance that Japan would
surrender its control over Korea
Speaking at banquet yesterday he
said that the political and economic
weaknesses of Korea were obvious 10

while It undoubtedly was true that the
Koreans disliked the necessity for

A Simple Prescription For the

In the good old days our mothers
used to tell ps to use garden sage

pie infusion was made of the common
garden sage and applied to the roots
Of the hair. This old time remedy Is
still used in many sections of the coun-
try to this day. 1t has also been dis
covered that the Indians of the north
west used to make a brew Tor teal
Of the wild sage lSage brush) and ap-
ply It for all scalp affections. White
people also used this sage brush tea
with good results, "A careful study
has been made OF the different kinds
Of sage and it has been found that
the wild sage or sage brush contains
much more of this certain curative
property than does the tame sage.
The reason for this Is apparent The
wild sage growing az 1t does In a soil
rich In sulphur and volcanic ash nat
urally contains much more medicinal
matter.
One OF the main objections to the
use of these crude preparations, es-
pecially so of the wild sage, was the
disagreeable odor of the brush This
objection has been overcome after
three years of careful experimenting
In laboratory especially fitted for
the purpose so that you can now pro-
cure a preparation free from all the
disagreeable odors but still containing
all the active principles OF the wild
