MANTI WATER SHED IS
ENDANGERED BY GRAZING

NIANTI, April 29.-The Manti nation
al forest reserve people are making
trouble for the citizens Of Manti by is
suing permits for stock grazing in.
]Alanti canyon. Mayor Lowry called a
mass meeting of the citizens last night
to protest against this action. Super
Visor A. w. J ensen defended the action
OF the forest service and stated the
contents OF the order that had been
received opening the canyons to graz
ing 500 horses and cattle. He gave it ats
his opinion that 500 to 1000 head of
horses and cattle could in no way
damage the vegetation to the injury Of
Manti, and said that the forest depart.
ment would do all it could to protect
the watershed for the benefit of Manti
City.
A different view Of the matter Is taxi.
en- by the people here, as was shown
in the heated discussion which orsued,
a committee of five WAS appointed to.
draw up a resolution to the head of
forest service praying for a revoca-
ton OF the order opening the forks Of.
f,Manti canyon to grazing.
No stock of any kind has been al
lowed to Craze in the disputed district
except a5efew, estimated! at 400 to 500
head each season, that have stIayed in,
and these have always been driven out
as soon as found. These canyons were
originally closed upon the petition Of
citizens OF Manti, in order that the
grass and Vegetation might have a
chance to grow and cover the hillsdes3
and thereby prevent the destructive
floods which have visited this city in
The past, doing many thousands of dol-
lars damage. The wisdom Of the move
has been proven by the fact that since
the closing of the canyons they have
become clothed in verdure and native
shrubs. The opening of the reserve was
made upon the Recommendation of; Su-
pervisor Jensen.
The city council has already set on
foot q move looking to the purchas, by (
AIanti City of the restricted district. In
order that it might be brought within
the control of the city. is probable
that utah's representatives in Congress
Will be asked to secure from Congress
bill transferring the control of these
lands to Nlanti or at least uthprizingA
the interior department to sell them ,Sp,g
on the payment Of a reasonable price.

Referring to the abuses of the right
of appeal from the lower courts ITO the
higher, whether the cases be of high or
low degree of Importance and whether
they be civil or criminal, the Boston Her
aid sums up some OF the disadvantages
of the system in the following: Many
of the appeal cases are mol posed, or
continued, or left on the docket without
action, or plea OF guilty is taken, and
by agreement the minimum penalty is
imposed. Such results encourage con-
tempt for the lower court, and for the
law and the courts in general. The abuse
Of the appeal in civil practice is equally
degrading for the lower courts. Five
years ago A per cent. of the civil cases
tried in the municipal court Of Boston
were carried to the higher court ON APP.
peal The number has increased since
that time. The result is that the lower
court is not performing the service for
which it was designed, and the higher
court is elogged with cases which are not
Of sufficient Importance properly to come
before it, In the discussion OF remedies
fer improving the service of the lower
court by increasing its power, Judge Lum,
mus ~ suggestive, rather than insistent.
Whether or not all agree with him in his
suggestions, the bar generally will con-
eede that some reform Is necessary to
remedy the evils which he describes"

BARREs LOCAL OPTION VOTE.

Barre voted no-license on the liquor
question yesterday by a convincing ma
jority, and we are inclined to believe
that the vote represents the honest con
victions Of the voters at the present time.
That is to say, the voters were not
swayed to any extent in the expression
of their will by any sordid interests or
sinister motives, but were aetuated by
honest purposes. No doubt there were
scattered cases in which self-interest
played part and caused the voters to
register their franchise either for or
against the licensing of saloons in this
city; but we are free TO express the belief
that not at any time since the present
law went onto the statute books have
the prediction conditions been more
favorable to a candid consideration Of
the situation. BY that statement we
wish to be understood as saying that the
liquor question was not tangled up with
any political contentious, and ii was de-
eided irrespective of any political deals
or divisions.
And now the supporters of license,
numerous as they are, should fall to and
lend their support toward decent en-
forcement Of the law, as they would hope
the no.license faction to do had the result
been different.
As fer the conduct of the election in
all respects, The Times has yet to hear
of any serious reflections on it in any
particular. The day was passed in com
parative quietness when it is considered
that upwards OF sixteen hundred voters
went to the polls, and the police report
