There is something radically in
consistent about the advance in dress.
ed beef recently announced by the
meat trust. The packers give as a
reason for this advance the prevailing
scarcity of cattle, but they fail to ex.
plain why the price of cattle has not
been raised to correspond with the
value of the dressed product. In brief
the whole scheme is bare-faced
robbery-an imposition on both the
consumer and the farmer who raises
the cattle.

A heavy immigration movement

a heavy immigration movement Is
expected from Europe this fall, and
the reason for this is largely attrib.
uted to the fact that the news has
gone abroad of the return of prosperi-
ty to the United States. Then to this
may be added the effect of the labor
troubles in Sweden. Rather than re-
turn to work at the wages prevailing
before the strike thousands of men
will leave the country, and most OF
them will come to the United States.

LAW VIOLATED BY

Attempt to Sew tip Contract in
Favor of PauIy Concern De-
Clared Illegal.

IL is possible that the county COM

contract for the cells, sheriff's house
and walks and drives in connection
with the new Jail to the Paulv Jail
building company OF St Louis, after
an The plans and specifications for
these cali for the use of the ''Pauly

This is declared to be in contraven-

says:

It is pointed out the commissioners

DEADMAN BENCH
TO BE RECLAIMED
(Vernal Expressly

a gentleman. from Salt Lake. J. G..
Smith, has been looking over the cOun-
try to the south and southwest of the
mountain. known as the Dead Man
Bench, during the past two weeks. If
we are correctly informed, il is a gil
gantic proposition that he is figuring
on, and would mean the retaining Of
a scope Of country as large as the
whole of the Ashley valley, and then
some. 1t is said that he represents
mOneyed men who want large irrigation
propositions, and the proposition in
this case that is being looked up is to
take water from the Bear or Yampa
the range to the east Of Blue noun
tain and water the Dead Man Bench.
This is a fine body of land which lies
between Green river and Kennedy sta
ton. she greater part of which is in
Utah. but a portion Of the land COW
cred by the canal would be in Colora-
do. The retaining and settlement of
this vast tract Of Land would in all
probability double the population of
Uintah county.
This land lies in the very heart of a
rich section To the east are large
veins Of coal and deposits OF sand as
phalt, while to the south and west are
the largest veins of gilsonite or as
phaltum in the known world. This gill
sonite is 80 per cent pure. and one vein,
the Cowboy. is twenty feet wide. Be
sides this several derricks are now
boring for oil on all sides and have q

Der of wells.

BEING TRIED IN

Mine Promoters Charged With
Using Uncle Sans Mails
to Defraud.

Kansas City, May lin the trial in
the federal court here today Of the
Horn brothers. Raymond P May and
S. H. Singer, charged with using the
mails to defraud in promoting the
Two Queen" group Of mines in Ari-
iona. James B. Lynch of Philadelphia
produced letters, circulars and news
pers sent 10 him by the promoters.
These stated that the mine was in
operation and that ore was being
shipped in paying quantities. Lynch
said he bought LOO shares of stock on
representations made in the advertis-
ing matter.
J. II. Deaner Of Saginaw, Mich, tes-
titled that he had bought stock on the
instaIlment plan, paying 81 month.
When District Attorney Van Valken-
burgh offered as evidence a printed
circular describing the mining proper
ty. Attorney Chester Krum, counsel
for the promoters, objected
1T is the value of the stock that is
being questioned, and not the value of
the property he declared 1.-The pur-
chasers were solicited to buy stock,
not to buy the mine. The orders for
stock were filled according to agree
ment. There is a speculative element
in buying mining stock If there is
bright prospect persons are willing 10
paw we'll for a chance to have large
return"
Your distinctions are too refined,
Judge Phillips replied. in overruling
the objection 7 have always under
stood that a stakeholder Of a corpora
ton had some interest in the property
of the company. The value of the
property is the inducement that causes
persons to buy stock
