SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Jan. 6.
For the second time in the his
tory of the state a non-Mormon be-
came governor of Utah when George
II. Dern took the oath of office in
the capitol building late yesterday
Dern is the first gentle in the
strict sense of the word to become
governor of the state, as his only
non Mormon predecessor, Simon
Bamborger, was a Hebrew.
Governor Dern is the second Dem.
ocrat to become governor of the
state, all governors having been Re-
publicans with exception of Simon
Bamberger, who also was Demo
crat.
The new governor enjoys another
distinction also. He waS the only
Democrat elected to state office in
an election which was otherwise 4
sweeping victory for Republicans
throughout the state.

Ten Years Ago

Plans Completed for New Chapel
AT the regular meeting of the state
board of charities and reform held
last week there was submitted for
the approval of the board, plans and
specifications for the new dining
ROOM, kitchen and chapel, all COM
bined, in a building to augment the
present quarters at the Rawlins pen
itentiary. The proposed plan calls
for a building which will be uniform
in design with the present building
and will be constructed of reinforced
concrete and steel. Inadequate
space has made it necessary for the
erection of this new building.
On the first floor of the new
building according to the unapproved
plans there will be ample quarters
for the dining room, a large bakery,
over room and kitchen. On the sec
ond floor space will be devoted to
Quitting a chapel and a large stage
90 by 35 feet. The exterior of the
building will be of cement and block
ed off to correspond with the other
buildings. The roof will be substan-
tally built of asbestos shingles.
The Chris Juall wool clip aggre-
eating 100000 pounds, sold last week
for 27k cents a pound. A number
of clips in the vicinity of Rock
Springs have been sold at from "a
to 27h cents. Strange as 1t may
seem the ungraded wool brought
from three to six cents more a pound
than the graded wool and growers
are now satisfied hat the middlemen
are determined to discredit it and If
possible prevent the introduction of
the Australian system of shearing
and grading and packing wool in
this country. Local growers since
the buyers have shown their hands
are more determined than ever to
hold the prices up for their clips.
Thirty cents is the figure fixed by
the majority of the growers. The
Juall clip. which brought 27h cents
is one of the finest clips of the west
and always brings from two to four
cents a pound more than other clips
in the vicinity.
