GERLACH WILL SOON BE
PROVIDED WITH HOBO HOME

Chairman Perkins of the board Of
county commissioners received q tele
gram this morning stating that the
steel cells for the new Gerlach Jail
had arrived and the institution which
has been a real necescsity owing to the
number of tramps in that vicinity,
will shortly be completed.
The Western Pacific railroad issued
instructions some time ago to allow
all hoboes and tramps to ride free, as
they feared the floaters would do
great damage to the bridges and
roadbed if elected from the freight
trains in that wild country, and con-
sequently the constable has had his
hands full.
The board decided to erect the Jail
some time ago on receipt of word
from the constable that if it was not
soon built he would arrive in Reno
some day with at least 21 hoboes, and
that he was forced to handcuf the
tramps and tie them to trees, no other
shelter being provided.

Orders have recently been issued by
William Sproule, the new president of
the Wells-Fargo Express company, to

the promotion and appointment of
heads of departments and superintend-
ents of divisions in such numbers that
practically complete reorganiza
tion of the working force of the com
pany may be said to have taken place.
New divisions have likewise been
created, the one which interests the
people of Nevada most being the Ne
vada-Utah division, which will have
its headquarters at Salt Lake City.
f. E. M. Michael has been appointed
superintendent of this division and

rates have been put in force. While
its effects may not be Immediately
felt it is certain that the change in
the next few years will mean the saw

The official instructions to agents
on this point are as follows: can

the old plan of double graduate

be $115, a saving of 80 cents. Quite

eeived letter from Superintendent
Hoover, Of the McDermitt Indian
agency stating that he had been told
by some of his wards that party OF
four braves and three squaws had
passed through the reservation, travel
ing westward. From the fact that
one of the strangers was recognized
as brother of Indian Mike, who was
killed in the battle of Glover valley

two complaints lodged with him some

GATHERING DATA
FOR TARIFF BOARD

Acting as an agent of the national
tariff board in the important under
taking of determining the exact status
of the wool industry in America, Will
G. Barnes of the forest service at
Washington arrived in Salt Lake last
night, and during the week will con-
duet thorough investigation into the
operating expenses of Utah wool
growers. He has just completed SINH
lar inspections in New Mexico, Ari
zona, California and Nevada. Later
he will visit Wyoming and Colorado
on the same mission and is under or
ders to place his report in the hands
of President Taft not later than Oc-
tober Is.
As President Taft has repeatedly
warned the Democrats in congress that
he would veto any bill reducing the
tariff on wool that is passed before
the report is completed, the importance
of Mr.. Barnes undertaking is evident.
1t will show exactly how much it costs
the average wool man in each wool
producing state to carry on his bust
ness, the amount of profit and the eff
have on the industry, and will thus
figure nightly in the tariff consider
ations
Refuses Positive Statement
Although refusing to lend his name
to a direct statement that the western
wool growers need all the protection
they now enjoy, Mr.. Barnes declared
that the wool growers of South Ameri-
ca, South Africa and Australia can
produce wool at much lower figure
than can those of the western half of
the United States, because of a multi
tude of reasons, as will be shown in
his report
whether or not the reduction of
tariff is justifable is not for me to
say he said. 81 am merely gather
ing facts, though after my inspection
OF the southwest I have my own opin-
ion in the matter.
Utah Pays Herders Most.
s'In New Mexico and throughout
the southwest wool can be produced
somewhat lower than in Utah, Nevada,
Idaho, Wyoming and states of the
northwest, chiefly because of the
cheaper labor. For instance, in New
MeAico Hcfuefs ARE pdiu P@o' III All
zona they get $50, California sheep
men pay $35 and $40, Nevada pays
$45 and in Utah they get $50 and
above. These things make a differ
ence in each state. We intend to
figure each state separate from the
others, however, and arrive at an ac-
curate average later on.
81 am not yet prepared to make any
statement regarding the wool industry
in Utah, except as it might be based
on my findings in other states. There
| have found the sheepmen in tip-top
shape this year.
Mr.. Barnes is inspector of grazing
in the forest service. At present he is
on leave of absence from the service
in order to represent the tariff board
in determining conditions of an in
dustry in which he is recognized as one
of the foremost authorities in the land.

COUNTIES PAY
DAY DOUBTFUL
Doubtful as to Whether County
Officers VIII Receive Their
Paw Every so Days

A matter of some interest to county
officers is now being discussed. Here
tofore it has been the custom, and the
law, to pay salaries quarterly. But the
last Legislature, presumably thinking
that the public servants should pay their
bills monthly like anyone else, passed a
law providing that "the salaries Of the
county officers must be paid monthly
from the county treasury. /"
In the constitution Of Idaho 1t is pro-
vided that tall county officers shall
receive, as full compensation for their
services, fixed anntial salaries, to be paid
quarterly out Of the county treasury
Whether the Legislature overlooked this
constitutional provision, or regarded it as
binding on them, is not known. At any
rate there is danger that the happy time
when county officers can demand and
receive their pay every thirty days is not
yet at hand.
