for the saloon by using the threadbare
argument that If you close up the sa-
looms and cut off the revenue, 1t will
be necessary to close the public
schools. And then what will your
boy do for an education?" We'll, be-
gorrah," said the Hibernian, I'D rath-

Mute evidence Of a mortal combat

Baker, says the Portland Oregonian.
Lying in the lower edge of Roose-

Of a buck deer Of more than ordinary
size. Digging down into the ice the
cruiser uncovered the remains of a

From the position of the skeleton

UTAH'S OIL FIELDS

Among the admittedly great re-
sources of the State of Utah in an
undeveloped form is oil. Utah stands
in the first division as a producer OF
copper, silver, lead and gold, the
fame of the state as a mineral Sec
ton being recognized worldwide, but
aside from occasional brief mention,
and always in half-hearted way, the
oil wealth of the State is ignored,
awaiting only the mage sesame OF
willing capital to put into being an
industry which will measure equal to
any within its boundaries.
There are several embryonic oil
fields Of the State, among which may
be mentioned the San Juan, Green
River and Virgin. The fact that these
sections are isolated, so far from rail
road facilities that the expense OF OPP
Grating is prohibitive except on the
part Of enormous capital is the handi-
cap that prevents development, and
big capital seldom pioneers 1t will
only be after the individual or COM

that the big interests will enter and

been carried exclusively by the man
of limited means, and 1t looks as II
he will be compelled to persevere un'
til results convince big interests that
railroad extensions should be made
In all lines OF individual endeavor
where great tasks are attempted
there are innumerable handicaps en-

and they are severe enough at thell
