OLD PIONEER OF IRON
COUNTY AND THE SOUTH

Yesterday morning we were fav-
ored by a visit from Nephi Johnson,
one of the pioneers of Parowan, &C.
dar City and other towns in the south.
Mr.. Johnscn's home is now at Mes
quite, Clark County, Nevada, and he
was on his way home from the Paro-
wan homecoming.
Mr.. Johnson is now 81 years old,
but is remarkably well preserved, can
read and write still, gets about with
apparent ease, is straight and would
not be taken for much If any over so.
He was a member Of the original
band of pioneers who settled Paro-
wan January 10, 1861. After resid-
ing there for two years. From there
he moved to Johnson's Fort with his
brother, and it is from them that the
settlement takes its name Of Johnson.
In 1856 Mr.. Johnson moved to &C.
dar City, but resided here only about
three years when he was called by
Bishop Isaac c. Haight to lead a
company Of saints into the upper
Virgen VALLEY, and assisted in max
ing the first wagon road into tina.
country. He settled at Virgen City,
where he resided for IL years, and
then moved to Kanab, where he lived
25 years.
Mr.. Johnson was joined at Parowan
by his brother Alma Johnson, another
pioneer of this section, who is now
residing at Tropic, Garfield county.

Ladies' Do Good Work.

Last Monday the ladies Of the Re-
lief Society, assisted by some of the
members Of the Young Ladies' Mu-
tual, did splendid work in the clean
ing and renovating Of the tabernacle
from floor to garnet. It was volun-
teer service, and number of the la
dies who could not assist with the
cleaning did their part just the same
by preparing an appetizing lunch for
the other workers.
The ladies were promised some
masculine assistance in the matter Of
moving benches, carrying water and
other heavy work, but the men and
boys were only conspicuous for their
absence, and the ladies were obliged
to do it alone, but were equa, to the
situation and left the building in the
best of condition.

leaders have many times broken dip

marines have sent torpedoes crushing

FOR CLEANER SPORTS

If real sport is not generous and square, he
is not anything. And somehow it occurs to us
that it is time that decided stand were taken for
cleaner higher class sports in southern Utah, or
that they should be abolished altogether. This
shocking account is brought back by the boys of
this place who attended the racing tournament
at Panguitch recently: After the fatal race in
which resident Of this county was killed by the
horse he riding falling and rolling heavily
over him, it was suggested to the winners of the
money bet that the portion contributed by the
dead man be returned to his family. To which
some of the hardened characters interested in the
result of the replied: "A dead mans money
is just as good to us as any other. When you bet
with you want to get your horse the line
first, expect to lose your money" Such cal
lousness is truly revolving and reflects degen-
crate condition in sporting circles in our section
of the state that we very much regret. AT St.
George last week an example of unfairness was
exhibited when professional player was includ-
ed in the st. George team competing with the
Cedar team. They carried it off smoothly until
the st. George team came up against the Santa
Clara team for game. The Clara team knowing
the facts refused to play until the professional
had been dropped, and still claimed their
right to the pures in the absence of the game.
When st. George agreed to drop the Objectionable
player, Cedar of course came back for another
trial for first place. Without the aid Of this man
it was apparent that the Cedar team would win
easily. Santa Clara threatened the withdrawal
of 80 prospective students from the Dixie high
school at st. George if they were not given fair
show. st. Georges crookedness had gotten them
into dema. The faculty of the school were
brought into the tangle and as the only way out
without either losing thte Santa Clara students
from the school or losing the purse to Cedar, the
purse was "whacked up virtually before the
game between the ST. George and Clara teams.
This is what we call "unclean sport" and it ought
to be frowned down by all honest and selfrespect-
ing citizens of southern Utah.
