VERMONT's BEAUTIES.

spite OF the long continued lack of rain.
when natural Vermont Is one immense
landscape picture OF ever varying beauty,
grandeur, and loneliness. In New Hamp-
shire and the Adirondack region 1t is the
picturesque that predom'nates but here
in Vermont 1t Is the beautiful, save as

meadow, and woodland are a vivid and
luxuriant green in these first of June
days, and as one dwels upon the scene

WHERE ARE THOSE Sheep

Perhaps the Recorder betrays its
ignorance of pastoral pursuits, in
commenting upon such thing; but
somewhere there must have been IA
terrible catastrophe to the innocent
sheep of idaho. According to the
official census, there are 3,440,000i
the state; but the assessor, who is
supposed to know, says he can find
only I,455, 900. Now, those other two
million sheep must be here, for the
government says SO. 1t may be that
Wall street or the coyotes got them
maybe they are still bleating out in
the cruel wilderness. But whatever
their fate, the state ought to look
after them in the name of humanity.
When that many sheep can eVade
taxation; when farm lands that sell
for $100 to $3.50 an acre can get of
with an assessment of SO to $40 an
acre, when cash can escape by paying
no tax at all-it is time for the vast
majority, who do not or can not dodgt

the directors OF the Bonanza Mining
company was held at the camp on
Wednesday, January Is. At the
request of Manager r. j Fcklof,
the directors made thorough in
speet,on of the work that has been
done and of the modern machinery,
the installation of which was just
recently completed. All were high
ly gratitied at the showing made
and in fact astonished to learn that
the company had such o complete
plant. They expressed their hearty
appreciation of the manner in which
Manager Eckloff has carried on the
work and congratulated him upon
being able to overcome the obstacles
with which he has met.
The directors were unanimous in
the belief with Mr.. Eckloff and the
mining experts who have inspected
the property, that ere long the
Bonanza will become one of the
great shipping mines of the Wasatch
range.

the crime was Committed in Idaho
or Wyoming, he wired Sheriff Rich
of this county, who went to Coke
vile Sunday night on No. 10 and
with the Cokeville officer went to
scene of the murder Monday. The
officers still being unable to decide
in which state the crime was com
mitted, secured the services of Coun-
ty Surveyor Bucher, who happened
to be in Cokeville, and who deter
mined that the camp was located in
Idaho.
Sheriff Rich came to Montpelier
Monday night and went back to
Cokeville Tuesday morning accom-
panied by Coroner Nowland and
Prosecuting Attorney Higgins.
The inquest was held at Cokeville
Tuesday and the jury's verdict was
that Rice came to his death from a
gunshot wound, the shot having
been fired from gun in the hands
of John w. Hunt. McAtee, who
witnessed the tragedy, did not testl.
fly at she inquest, Hunt alone told
the story of the killing, and said be
did it sn self defense as Rice had
attacked him with the knife.

McAtee in from Cokevtlle Tuesday
evening and took them to Paril
Wednesday morning, where they
will be held, pending preliminary
hearing.
Hunt has worked in the vicinity
of Cokeville for the past few years
having been employed by the differ
ent sheep men there in the capacit!
of herder. He has never beer
known to have been in trouble be
fore, but like most sheep herders
he was more or less addicted to tn
use of liquor.
But little is known regarding tn
murdered man. He had bee

WANT TO KNOW
ABOUT BEAR LAKE

4 A few days ago County commits
sioner Hoff received postal card
from l.. f. Cooper of Camden, N
j., which bore the following rel
quest: "Will you please send IL
lustrated booklet, giving advant-
ages and opportunities of your Sec
tion to settlers who desire going to
Idaho" Following this were the
names and addresses of four gentle
men of that city, who are anxious
10 know something about this par
ticlar section.
In referring the postal to the Ex-
aminer representative, Mr.. Hoff
asked the writer what had become Of
the booklets descriptive of this val
ley, which the Oregon Short Line
passenger department was supposed
to have ready for distribution two
months ago?
1t seems to US that it is certainly
high time that the booklets were
out, for this is the season of tht
year when the land seekers in thu
east are calling for literature con
eerning the sections of the wes
they contemplate visiting IN TIN
spring. Most of the emigrants de
eide upon the points they intent
visiting before they leave thei
homes and it is therefore essentla
that Bear Lake booklets should nov
be ready for distribution.
We suggest that the directors 0
the Commercial Club make inquir
regarding the literature for thi
county and endeavor to get it int
circulation at the earliest date posl
1ble.

IENOS HARNESS co.
TO ENLARGE PLANT

Articles of incorporation of the
Enos Harness and Saddlery Co.
were fled with the county auditor
this week. The company is cap
italized for $4,000, with the par
value of the shares placed at S25
each. This company is the out
growth of the little harness shop
started by Thos. Enos about six
years ago. BY judicious advestis-
Iing and strict application to bust
ness, M. Fnos' trade has increased
year by year. A year ago last Nov
ember he removed from the little
shop in which he began business, to
the commodlous room in the Cruik-
shank block. About the same time
he inaugurated the "Enos System"
of washing and oil1ng harness and
this branch of the business has
grown to such proportions that it is
safe to say that more sets of harness
are washed and oiled in this shop
each year than in any other harness
shop in the United States. The
"Enos System" is also in use in
some 600 shops throughout the
country.
The purpose OF Mr.. Enos in or.
ganizing a company at this time il
to enable him to better handle the
increasing business, and to branch
out in the manufacture of harness
and saddles. The plant will be 'er
larged by the installation of al
electric motor and the latest i'm

ness. With this equipment th'
company will be able to make al
