Viewed in the light OF the facts, how
absurd seems the contest about the I'm
ion Pacific land, and this cry against
giving away the agricultural lands west
OF the Mississippi to railroads; aud how
ridiculous the advertisement Of the Road
of ''twelye million of choice farming
grazing and mineral lands that eare be-
ing sold TO settlers at prices varying
from $2to $40 per acre The land Of
the Missouri River Valley is undoabted-
ly of great value. Ii is choice farming

that is worth anything that was ever

which the railroad passes. Mentioning
t le impression the bI-renness OF the coun-
ty made on my mind TO q gentleman
who has as great Knowledge OF the west

Ing general statement, that excepting
Oregon, which has a wet climate, not
over Two er cent. of he whole country
west of the 100h meridian could ever b.
made useful for agricultural purposes
not even when every river and brook and
stream has been utilized TO its utmost
capacity for irrigation. In the whoir
Territory Of Utah not an acre is pro
ductive without irrigation, and no irIi.'
ton here can be undertaken without the
Oh lay of gr at capital.
One other generalization will show
how valueless for agricultural purposes
this rainless county is. When for puI-
poses of irrigation, all the water west Of

Tie fact is that sucil husbands and ia Z
theirs as Walworth are by no means nm
common. There is not street Of this
great city which does not contain several
of the same class. If every wife had the
means, or courage, or money TO bring
her griets ,inl 0, court, Mrs. Walworth's
sad story, down to her husbands death,
would speedily wear the appearances, of
a slight misfortune. There is probably
nothing, not even the sack of a stormed
city, which brings out the deyiIish and
animal part of some mems nature as
the unchecked control of another human
bsing's person and feelings does. There
are thousands OF Poor women in this city,
