SOME GOOD SUGGESTIONS.

E Professor j. H, Paul. In a commute.
cation to the News" endorses very
strongly the opinion expressed by this
paper the other day. that the con-
sentative citizens of the State were
not in favor OF increasing the taxes
for a building which they rightly or.
wrongly regarded as ornamental rather
than absolutely necessary. He adds
that although lie is interested in pro-
perty near the Capitol hill, which
would have increased in value by the
proposed building, Yet he believes that
the money of the State can be spent
to greater advantage Just now. Pro
fessor Paul says:
Utah has about twenty million
acres of dry land awaiting recIama-
ton by the application of a little
water. To supply this water will res
qnire reservoirs, and these the State
must build, aided. tofy some extent,
by the Federal government. The cost
will run into inanysmlflions. but the
returns to the State and people will
be correspondence large and will re-
present many times the outlay ne
cessary for the construction of re-
servoirs. II seems probable that with
in a few years the State could offer
irrigated farms to Its citizens at from
$50 to $50 per acre, equal In actual
value to irrigated lands that sell at
present from 500 to 5000 per acre.
and still make profit of from $40
to so per acre on every such trans
action. Five million acres thus sold
would mean from s50,000.0o0 to $780,
100000 profit to the State. 1twould
also mean that every young man of
energy and ambition couldyat ordinary
wages, soon acquire a farm that would
make him independent. is this an ex-
travagant supposition2 Any skeptic is
advised to consult civil engineers who
have made study of this subject and
then judge for himself as to the iIn-
mediate feasibility of such project.
| nevertheless. this State cannot ex-
pend, say, ten millions for reservoirs
and in addition Ave MILLIONS for.
a Capitol building. The talk of erect,
ing the latter structure for two and
u half millions is almost preposterous.

A CANADIAN STORY

An illustration Of how canards abouts
the Iatter-day Saints are originated
and circulated comes from Canada. x;
Il. 1t appears that a young lady Of Ma z
grath, Alberta, married young man
iof Lethbrldge, and that because Of
some trouble between them the lady
went home. to her parents, A child
was born and the young man took Tile
baby away under circu1nst thnt
aroused public indignation and SYM
patty with the mother The fellow vas
somewhat roughly handled. But, al
though the wife was q Presbyterian.
and the daughter Of Presbyterians, yet
the newspapers report the occurrence
as Mormon outrage 3.
The Montreal Daily Star, of May ~,
has the following headlines: Three
yGentiles Roughly Handled by Mormon
Mob; Polygamists Act in Very High
handed Manner at Magrath," and then
comes the report:
II ethbridge, Alberta May 27,-A mob

noon mobbed. threatened to hang and
severely Ftldluteu 2tWQA'CiSntlle,t men and
a woman at MaSrath, IL, Mormon tset-
Element about % miles southeast of
here.
The trouble arose from the marriage
a year or more ago of Mormon girl
to a Gentle, as the Mormons call all
non members of their Church, and the
interference of the Church which bars
all marriages of its-schildren to Gen-
titles. &
James Barclay. one of the men who
3was mobbed, declared this was the
cause of the whole trouble II Bar
clay and his Wife, the. couple concerned, .
after their marriage, lived happily to-
gether in Calgary. Mrs. Barclay, about
five months ago. returned to her moth.
err home at Magrath, and intended to
return to her own home in the course
of a week or two. Once back in Ma
g1'ath, however, her parents and Church
determined to keep her, and in spite of
her hus band's entreaties, she refused
to return to him.
Yesterday Barclay, accompanied by
his sister, Mrs. Boldersori, of this city,
and a friend went TO AIagrath to urge
his wife once again to come back to
him. She refused, and he finally de-.
-ciared that II she would not come back
