FANNY BREWER EXPERIENc cE.

Fanny Brewer OF Boston was ono of
in order TO gather with the saints
there, and to live her religion in what
she supposed would be congenial COM
pany. She was one OF those who were
disappointed, however, and has stated
tho nature of her experience in Ohio.
She made. affidavit 10 the facts recited
! by her, under date of Boston, Scptem-
Der Is, 1912.
Convert Fanny Brewer went 10 Kirt-
land in the year 1897. Instead of find
ing peaceful and peaceable people,
dwelling together in harmony, she found
brother going TO law against brother,
sister quarreling with sister, and the
whole lot fighting with surrounding
neighborhoods, She says that drunken
ness and every species of vice and wick.
edness prevailed in rampant reckless
ness Joseph had Just been arrested
upon a charge Of having employed two
men TO kill Grandson Newell; but he
was acquitted, as all of the material
Brewer says, however: that she was ac-
quainted with one of the men who hao
been thus hired, Davis by name, and he
frankly acknowledged TO her that he
was "prcpared to do the deed under
the direction of the prophet and was
only prevented from so doing by the
cntreatics OF his wife. There was also
q great deal of feeling raised against
the prophet because of his known
seduction of an orphan girl who was
living in his home and under his pro
lection; and Joseph was compelled TO
flee between two days.
When she came to Kirkland, Fanny
Brewer brought with her stock of
goods valued at about fourteen hundred
dollars. She had been told that she
would have opportunity to sell them and
realize fair profit upon them; but
in this she was disappointed, as the |
stores were all controlled by the Nor
mon chiefs, and people would buy goods |
of no one else. So she had them shipped |
over into the State of Missouri, 10 be

man S goods. He Immediately swore
out warrant under the pretensc OF b
search for stolen property, and got the
goods into his possession. a sham court
adjudged the goods to him in pretended
legal fashion and the boxes were open-
ed. Hyrum Smith was present when
the boxes were broken open, and as
each piece Of cloth or other mercban-
disc was brought forth he would swear
that ne knew who was the owner, or
where the goods were stolen from. or
would claim some as his own-anythinp

The paving of Third South west
from West Temple street is ample in

II is stated that to widcn the paving

would require tho cutting down nj

trees arc old, scarcely worth preserv-

And the trees must soon come down,

ADVANTAGES IN THE COUNT.

Tho enumeration Of the populatior
, for the Thirteenth Census Of thc Unit
/, cd States is now actively on. II is tc
be hoped TINT there viii be Jealous
cooperation with the cnumcrators by
all the people, TO the end hat full
count may be had, An should take Il
civic pride in seeing that MI the in.
habitants arc counted, SO hat our Just
rights in representation and in rank
may be rightly shown.
II is hoped that Utah may have two
Representatives in Congress as thc re-
suit of the present census. But this
hope may be defeated either by the
hanging back Of those who ought to
he enumerated, or by the Indifference
Of others who can help but do rot.
There is also i pressing reason, bind
ing throughout the state. why every
one should be enumerated; that rea-
son Is, that there win have 10 be \ new
apportionmcnt Of members of the Legis
laturc at The next session Every county
viii want 10 have whatever advantage
in representation in the Legislature
that It's population entities it, TO. The
more population the more representa-
ton. both in the Senate and in the
lower house Of the State Legislature.
Every county is entitled TO one Repre-
sentative in the lower house, simply
because IL is county The larger
counties are entitled to a. many more
as their population entities them TO,
on ratio To be fixed hy the Legisla |
iure that makes The new apportion- |
ment. 1T is probable that there may be |
an increase in the number of Senators
(now cighteen) and Of Representatives
(now forty y6vc) The present appor-
tionmcnt was made on 4 b,tsls (approXi-
matciy) of SIX thousand population for
a Representative and (also approx
mateiy) Of fifteen thousand forsa Sen
ator If this ratio should he main
tanned, 1t is probable that the Repre-
sentativcs would have to he increased
to about siXty-one and the Senators TO
about twenty-five. But OF course
IN increase in the representative
Init in each case would reduce the
|
hat perhaps about fifty five 10 fifty
even Representatives and twenty.three
% twenty-five Senators would he about
he right composition foe the Legis, {
aturc which will succeed the one Of
leXt winter.
On every count. therefore, Of civic
ride in having a correct enumeration,
nd in desire that each locality, as well :
S the State itself, should be fairly rep.
esentcd, every pains should be taken '
o see that the enumeration shall be o
ompletc. ?
Salt Lake City is vitality interested t

In the country at large, trade and
industrial reports arc rather more
cheerful. The shortage in winter wheat
indicated by the government report is
not being considered as serious.
There is unsettlement in the pig-iron
trade, both in production and prices.
The output during the last six months
exceeds all previous records, with the
result that there is an accumulation of
stock, with some concessions to the
consumers. but the disposition of the
iron men is to maintain prices; this,
however. is found to be l.npracricable.
Export trade is shrinking, partly be-
cause of the combinations that force
high prices, and partly because Of the
constantly increasing demand for food
stun's and manufactured articles.
The stock market is weak, although
there is an abundance of money, despite
the gold exports and the threat of more,
Stocks are infrm, and the market
breaks AT the least provocatiou, IN spite
of every effort TO build it up.
There is stronger interest in wool
and n fair amount is selling. There is
special demand for staple Oregon, and
other western woods are moving stead
lily, with good demand. \ revival of
activity in the wool market is conf
IDENTIFY predicted in the reports.
Altogether, there is good reason to
expect an exceedingly prosperous year
throughout the country, based on the
great demand for staple articles, and on
the prospects for fair TO excellent crops,
aud on the public confidence that it is
safe to proceed on conservative, well |
grounded business lines.
