The biggest year British trade ever saw was 1907, and the chancellor pointed out. trade for the last month was better than in December. 1s07 by s5,000,OO and over in exports, and if they took both exports and imports, it was better by $25, ,O00, 600. Furthermore. the increase in imports was not In manufac- tured goods, but raw material and food It looked as though the coming year would be the biggest that British trade, from the foundation of the empire, ever had experienced.

Editorial

Don't think for moment that we've got nbilanthropic streak and are donating you pro- fits out of charity.
 It isn't that at all.
 It's clearly a case of "root hog, root We got badly stuck with heavy and medium weight wooens owing to the continued weather
 Our taors are hired by the year, and we have absolutely bound ourselves to keep them busy There's only one way to do that, and that is to sell suits and overcoats
 During the early winter the weather was too warm and great number of men have not even yet got their heavy clothes.
 For those who haven't, here's the chance of Ifetime-and those that easily afford another outfit at these prices.
 To make selection easy, we have divided our stock into three big price lots and have marked them with Red, Yellow and Green Tags The Red Tags represent all the fabrics we usually sell for $500 and $17 50. These we have cut to $13.50
 The Yellow Tags embrace all those good woolens that we have always sold for $2000 and $22.50-now only $1650.
 The Green Tags take in all highest grade woolens-values, at our low figures, to $30.00. At other taiors the Red Tag goods would fetch $25.00; the Yellow Tag woolens, 5000; and the Green Tag fabrics, $4O00.
 So you can readily see the tremendous saving and the advisability of ordering RIGHT NOW, even though you may not want to the clothes till next fall.
 Come tomorrow, be your own salesman; you can't make mistake in anything you select.
 Yours truly,
 San1ue1s @ Go.

BINGHAM BLAZE
BURNS FORTUNE
Home of Mrs. Fox Ruined and
the Occupants Barely
Escape.
Especial to The Herald-Republican.)

Especial to The Herald-Republican.)
Bingham, March Sin a gust of flame
breaking out this morning shortly after
o'clock. Mrs. Margaret Fox. with her
five children. the youngest but little
tot, and several boarders, were driven
into the chill of the early morning,
lucky to escape with their lives. In
less than an hour the eight-roomed
house of Mrs. Fox, located in Com
mercial gluch, Upper Bingham, was
nothing but a low heap of smouldering
ashes, with its former occupants hud-
ding, thinly clad, in the shelter offered
by sympathetic neighbors.
In the fire, the origin of which is yet
unknown Mr.. and Mrs. Fox lost all.
With the house went the furniture, and
in the smoke of the burning woodwork
went up $1,000 in currency Something
over S15 lies in the ashes in the form OF
melted silver. One of the little lads of
the family was taken out of the burning
building in a risk that resulted in his
hair being singed.
How the fire started in the home is
unknown. The heavy smoke, nauseat-
ing the sleepeers, awakened Mrs. Fox
and two or three of the boarders at just
about the same time, and the sleepers
burning partitions in the house. The
fire gained rapid Roadway, and the oc-
cupants had barely time to escape,
without any attempt to save any of the
furniture.
Hidden away in a corner of a trunk
was a stocking containing 81 1000 in cur
rency and a little over $3.50 in silver,
representing the savings of Mrs. Fox.
In the rush and excitement the hoard
was forgotten, nor could it have been
obtained unless at the sacrifice of the
children, had it been thought of, so
rapid was the spread of the fire.
Aside from the loss of the money, the
loss to the home amounts to about
$4,000, with no insurance. The Bingham
fire department, which was called, did
valiant work in the prevention of the
spread of the flames to adjoining
houses.

RICHTER IS DISMISSED
Man Who Arranged Capture of
Dolly Dimples" Is
Freed.
tspeeial to The Herald Republican.l

Especial to The Herald Republican,
Ogden, March S.-A sensation was
sprung in the Dolly Dimples" hearing in
the district court this morning, when
Judge j. A Howell ordered the dismissal
of Fred K. Richter, principal of the three
defendants in the conspiracy charge, on
the legal technicality that there was no
evidence against him other than that Of
fered by an accomplice to the crime. Fred
Van Ness, who confessed TO having acted
as a go-between in arresting the fake
capture of Dolly Dimples," otherwise
known as Mrs. L. V. Curry, and thereby
was given immunity, was the only wit
ness against Richter Under the law, Van
Ness was an accOmplice, said the court,
and as the testimony of the other wit
nesses failed to indict Richter he was dis
charged.
Following this move the defense asked
for a dismissal of the charge against
Mr.. and Mrs. Curry. and the court adj
tourncd to consider the motion. Late this
afternoon the case was resumed, the mo-
ton being denied.
So far the defense has only attempted
20 prove that Mayor William Glasmann.
who, as publisher of the Ogden Standard,
claims to have been defrauded of $3.50 by
the Currys and Richter, was cognizant
of the crooked deal at the time. The
case will probably go to the jury tomor-
row evening.

POLICE AS DOG KILLERS
Provo Blueeoats May Be Made Off
cial Executors of Homeless and
Unclaimed CANNES.
Especial to The HeraId-Republican)


Provo. March S.-Two bills for ordi-
nances, presented at the city council
meeting last night, were laid on the table,
to come up at the next meeting.
One provides that the city marshal and
every policeman shall be ex-officio dog
tax collectors, which office carries with
1t that of official canine executiOner in
cases where the tax cannot be collected.
The reason for attempting to place this
duty on the police department is that the
city has not been able to get any one to
take the position. Between now and next
meeting an extra effort will be made to
find a man who will take the job, and
If he can be found the bill may not pass.
The proposed sealer of weights and
measures ordinance separates this office
from that of provision inspector, with
which it has been joined in the past.
The matter of the citys liability for the
condition of a street west of the city, be-
tween Center street and Sixth South
street, and it's authority to widen the
street, was referred to the committee on
streets and alleys
Phil Speckart and others asked per-
