McNab denied knowledge of Nc
Murray's presence. McMurray S
home is here" he said, ''and his
being in the city at the time of "ur
conference with Mr.. Chaplin meant
nothing We did not know of Me

it in the newspapers.

trial. Latest developments includ-
cd the arrival here of bookkeepers
and accountants from the Chaplin

Uncle Wiggily as he hoped home
with the peaches, shaking the drops

This is the first year in which

fact that these grapes in the New

Although we have just reach

coming in evenings are bringing
large numbers of people who are

Had the Mormons been as sue

as were Californians, the history Of
California would have been entirely
different. Early in 1S49, before our
own convention, they had met,
adopted a constitution and formed
the independent State of Deseret.
The boundaries were from the
Rocky mountains to the Sierra Ne
vadas, from th:rty-third degree
latitude to the Oregon border and
a section of Southern California
which included portion of the sea-
coast a:d t.le port of San Diego.
Officers were elected March 10th,
and later Almon w. Babbitt was
sent as delegate to United States
Congress carrying document ask
ing for admission as state. How
ever, plans failed and by the act
which made California a state, the
territory of Utah was created.
