S0L0NS SAY RATE FOR
LIGHT MUST BE REDUCED
Special to The Tribune.

OGDEN, June l2--It looks like there
is going to be a real fight between the
members OF the city council and the may =
OF on one hand and the Utah Light aud
Railway company on tho other over the
present llghunS rales Imposed ON the
city FOR the illumination OF It's streets,
The city officials argue that the rates
charged for Illuminating the streets are
FAR Ill excess OF the rate charged Salt
Lake City by the same company and
that lesser candle power arc light is
used on the local sheets. The officials
Of the company say that Salt Lake uses
many times more arc lights on its streets
than are used in Ogden, and as every
body wholesales.'' salt Lake CITY is en-
titled to better rate for that reason,
As TO the power of tho arcs as compared
with those in the capital ely, ii is eN-
planned that the lights turned on the
streets or Ogden are connected with only
one transmission power line, while those
OF Salt Lake arc fed by two lines. hence
the difference in the brilliancy.
The statute by which II Is hoped TO
compel the Utah Light and Railway COM
pany To provide better lights in Ogden
all of its phases with the result that the
city officials have decided to consider the
matter several days before deciding on
any definite action. Some kind OF re-
port and recommendation are expected
to show UP at the regular council meet
ing tomorrow night. and as one of the city
officials says II the scope OF the law rs
broad enough the Utah Light and Rail
way company will be made TO reduce the
rates as soon as some legal action can
be taken.

LOGAN. June l2,-The Logan city

and put in effect three of the reform
measures advocated by Mayor John H.

licensing OF pool halls was so amended
as to increase the license 80 per table

provisions of tho third measure passed
The mayor also asked the council TO
see that the local curfew law is strictly
enforced. and he 'riled" some OF tho
Democratic members OF the council by
his covert insinuation that the marshal

tlcular. as well as in some others They

GR0UND-D0G RAVAGES
DESTROY WHEAT FIELDS
Special to The Tribune,

LEHl, June l2.-The dry farmers OF
Cedar Valley are meeting with trouble
more disastrous than the drought. About
three weeks ago the little ground dogs
commenced their. attack on the wheat
and notwithstanding vigorous efforts TO
poison. smother and trap them, thou
sands OF acres have been cleared as
smoothly as II "a moving machine had
been over the fields. The dry weather
seems to have driven them into the green
fields OF grain. where they bite of the
heads OF wheat and suck out the juice
from the green staw. Their migrations
are so numerous that hundreds OF trails
leading TO the wheat Nclds are as dusty
as recently made sheep paths. Many
bushels OF poisoned wheat have been
scattered and from thousands OF little
holes In the ground blow flies may be
seen coming and going, testifying of the
deadly results. Yet so numerous are the
little pests that the work so far has &C.
complished but little and several farmers
are cutting their grain hay. One far
mer In the south end of the valley has
had his whole family busy with poison
traps and target rifles and out of an
S0-acre field he may save half of II. All
others in his locality have given UP.
Near the state we'll. siX miles south of
Fairfield. farmers are cutting all their
wheat for hay At Fairfield work TO
check the little rodents was commenced
early. and several good harvests will be
made, the grain maturing nicely not
withstanding the severe drought In the
north end OF the valley the pests have
not made their appearance. and the dry
iarm wheat promises a yield OF from 25
TO so bushels per acre
