Tho cold weather has had a verj
benelicial cfttct upon tho roads, and
a? a result the pcoplo from the coun
try are coming to town to do their
Christmas trading,. The merchants
are praying that the cold map will
continue all winter if trade will con
tinue m good a It ha been the last
few days.
What is the Reason?
Two or threo bulsness men were
discussing the local llnaucial situation
on the street today. All agreed that
wc had had a ery prosperous season,
and that there are a great many peo
ple In the community that arc pressed
for money to meet their obligations
and wondered what the cause -was.
One of them wasof the opinion that
the people had not been economical
enough but had over reached them
selves. Another stated thst the real
cauw; was the Implement houses and
the Life Insuianco men, that the
people had been talked Into pniehas
ing machlneiy, buggies etc that they
could hae gotten along eiy well
without, that they had given their
notes and assumed obligations that
they could not now meet without
borrowing, and It was causing them
a good deal of trouble to raise the
money.
There Is no doubt but what there
is more tntth than poetry in this
statement, but it seems that the bulk
of the people will never learn how to
say no, and mean It. They can usually
be talked Into almost anything and
if they were not tied up with imple
ment notes, they would be investing
on a rubber farm In Mexico or South
America somew here.
If any ono has money to Invest there
arc Just as good openings right hcic
In this alley as any where else on
earth' and the returns will be just as
large and Just as sure.
We wish the people would consider
these things for their own good. Debt
is an awful buulen at best, if wc
would be happy wc must keep out of
bondage.
Benjamin Curtis Dead.
Hcnj.unin Curtis who died at Pies
ton in the eaily part of the week and
who was brought hoio for burial, was
forsomcjcaisa lesldcntof this city.
He was born in Alicganey County,
New York, Jan. 12, 1S28, and giew up
in the rclgon made famous by the
ev cuts tiansph Ing there, in connection
with the bringing forth of the Hook
of Moimon and the consequent oilgen
of Mormonlsm. Mr. Curtis used to say
that he didn't know anything about
Joseph Smith and the plates he claim
ed to recehe, but the -subject was often
discussed in the nelghboihood wheie
he lived, dining his boyhood, and he
had once visited the hill Cumorah out
ofcurlosity and he had seen evi
dences that there had been a holo dug
in the hill at the spot wheie Joseph
Smith claimed tho plates had been
bulled. AVhether tho hole' had been
dug theic by Smith or some one else
he could not say.
In later years he man led a sister of
C. W. Caul and removed to Grand
Rapids, Michigan, where they lcslded
for a number of yeais. They came to
to Utah In 1884 and located hi this City
where they remained for six years,
then removing to Preston where he
has since resided.

The Election Contest.
The action of Allen and Farrell in
Instituting piocecdlngs against An
derson and Larscn with a view to
ousting them from the olllces to which
they luncheon elected, has been pret
ty thoroughly discussed by both Dem
ocrats and Republicans the last few
da) s. The action Is pretty generally
condemnied. Some Democrats assert
that even If the suit were successful It
would lesult Injuriously to the Demo
crats In the futuie. The charge that
theic wcie Illegal otescast and count
ed for the Republican nominees, and
legal otes tlnown out that should
have been counted for the Dcmociatlo
nominees in all the pielncts,. does not
reflect cry great credit on tho loyalty
and Intelligence of (lie two Democratic
Judges that lepicscnted their paity In
those preclnts. In some sections a
statement like that would be taken as
a include to iiu elTort to steal the elec
tion, and some discussion was indulged
In on the stieet alongtliis line; but wc
do not believe the plaintiffs in the
case would be guilty of such an act;
and ccn If they were so disposed It
could not succeed under existing con
ditions. Thodavs of the ballot box
stulllng Is piactically ocr in Utah.
As wc understand It the suit is bas
ed principally upon the supposition
that Illegal votes were cast for Ander
son and Larscn, but from the fact
two Democratic Judges at each polling
place passed on those votes as legal
and ccrtilied to the returns as true
and correct, it is hardly probable that
that a contest will change the result
materially. If there was illegal votes
cast In the election at all, the chances
arc that. a thorough examination will
reveal the fact that as many of them
were cast for Allen and Faircll as
against them.
If this should be the result as now
seems piobable the plaintiffs will be
loudly condemmed for biinging a suit
that means annnojaucc and expense,
only.
Pending the tight in the couit An
derson and Larscn will take possession
of their olllces on January tlrst, and
it the old law term that possession
Is nine points in law counts, they will
remain there a long time.
