Daily Kennebec journal., 1875-01-22

A very intelligent correspondent of the Els
worth American, "R. L. g." writing from Au-
gusta, speaks of recent visit to the Insane Hos
pital, as follows:
Several Of the members this afternoon visited
the Insane Hospital. We were politely received
by DR.. Harlow, the Superintendent, who has been
connected with the institution for nearly thirty
years. These unfortunate creatures are most
sad spectacle to look upon; still there is no doubt
but they are as well cared for here as in any SINH
lar institution, and much better than they could
be at home. As our visit was unexpected by the
Superintendent and attendants, We had good op-
portunity to see something Of what their daily
fare is. We were taken into the cooking apart,
ments, which showed that they are well supple d
with wholesome food, prepared with neatness and
well cooked. Blu. one disadvantage under which
the managers Of the institution are now laboring,
is, that they have no building with which the in
mates can be taken for amusement. Could the
people of our State these unfortunate beings,
certainly they would not deny them this small
luxury, which is not really so much OF luxury, as
absolute necessity.

Wednesday morning at o'clock, an alarm Of
fire was given in Waterville, caused by fire in
the dwelling house owned by Mr.. John Philbrick,
and occupied by Mr.. Dirsk. The house was en-
tirely burned; part Of the furniture in the lower
story was saved. The fire had broken through
the floor Of the sleeping room, and when the
sleepers awoke they found their bed clothes in
flames. The escape was very narrow one. The
house was uninsured. The FIRE department

THE YELLOWSTONE PARK.
The geyser region OF the Upper
Yellowstone, which Cougres8 has
wisely set apart as a National Park,
Is unquestiOnably the most astonish-
Ing combination of natural wonders
and of imposing and beautiful
scenery in the world. The report Of
United States geologists, who have
repeatedly visited that region, fully
demonstrate this fact. When the
park shall become accessible by rail-
ruads-say five years hence-we pre-
dict that it will become the great
summer resort and sanitarium OF the
continent For Sighl-seers and lovers
Of the wonderful and picturesque il
viii have more attractions than
Niagara. Yosemite and the White
Mountains combined; and there Is
the hest reason to believe that the
myriads Of hot ard mineral springs
in the Yellowstone Park posses val
liable curative properties The
summer climate in this region Is de-
ligbtfulIy conl, bracing and healthful-
Our people ARE mainly from the
Western and Southwestern states,
and. though few in number, are
energetic, enterprising and intelli-
gent. They are the nucleus of what
Is To be the leading commonwealth of
the new Northwest. The school
system of Wyoming is excellent and
abundantly sustained. The Terri
tory Is free from debt.
Several of the counties have incur
red Indebtedness 10y the making of
needed, permanent improvements;
which debts are represented by
county bonds redeemable in from ten
to twenty years and are consequently
not burdensOme.
With the opening up to settlement
Of Northern Wyomingthe tide ofim-
migratinn will pour into this Terri
tory, rs II formerly has into Caiifor-
mia or Kansas. The impetus thereby
given to our mining Interests, to
stock raising, agriculture and wool
growing. Will give occupation to n
large population and add much to
the wealth of the nation.
In short, considering climate,
healthfulneSs, fertility variety. and
abundance of natural riches, and the
location on the line Of the great
rational thoroughflre, the Union
Pacific railroad, we know OF no
part of the Western country, which
exceils Wyoming. the youngest
child Of Uncle Sam.
1t is no place for drones or dandies;
but for hard work. honest endeavor,
and capital backed by brains. it offers
a wide field and a reasonably sure
reward.

As a grazing region, it is generally
admitted by Western ~stOckmpn OF
experience that Wyoming has no
equal. Its superiority consists mainly
in this, that the grass is more abund-
ant and of better quality, the win
tiers are milder aud the snow falls
less in our sheltered valleys than on
the elevated and exposed plateauX
further south. Good water is abund-
ant in Wyoming and the climate is
such that herds of all kinds OF stock
keep perfectly healthy, and the in
rease is remarkably rapid and GER
tain. Many have expressed the
opinion that the stock-growing in
dustry OF Wyoming is of more i'm
portance to her Inhabitants than all
her gold and silver mines, rich as
they are. 1t is certain that the pecu-
culiar kind OF grass found here on our
plains and hill-sides is more nu-
tritious than Ohio timothy or the
best blue grass of Kentucky. This
bunch or gramma grass starts up
early in the spring, reaches maturity
in June and then cures where ii
stands, retaining all its nutritiVe
qualities and constituting the finest
autumn or winter feed for stock hat
nature has anywhere provided 1t
not only grows in the valleys, but
covers the foothills and the bench
lands, and frequently reaches the
mountain tops, thus furnishing I'M
limited grazing throughout the year
on laHus not available for other pur-
poses.
We know of no business, open 10
all corners, which IfferS such solid in
ducements as s~tock-raising in WyO-
ming. With good management the
risks are few and the returns are
large. Men long engaged in the bus
iness assure US that the profits eXce"d
four per cent. a month, thus doub-
ling the capital in two years. TO
reap all the advantages of the bust
and make it fully worth an en-
terprising mans attention, ii Is
desirable to start with a herd costing
from five to ten thousand dollars.
Many, however, begin with less and
gucceed well. The bushes of wool
] owing, although now in its infancy
n this Territory, is destined to be-
ONE a leading interest.
THE INDIAN QUESTION.
The Indians in Wyoming are
known as "Treaty Indians" living
on a reservation away from white
settlements. The northeastern part
of Wyoming is yet neutral ground,
the ioux Indians being permitted
by treaty stipulations to hunt over
the same. 1t Is expected that Con-
greSs next winter will ~abrogate the
existing treaty and confine these
Indians to their present reservation
beyond the boundary lines of WyOm-
ing Territory The pre- e1t policy

what may be consistently and truth
fully claimed for our Territory
CLIMATE. HEALTHFULNEs-
Wyoming is a Territory of i'm
mense extent and hence must have 4
variety OF climate. Ii is also a
mountainous region and what j. true
Of the climate OF the valley and
plains would not he true OF the
higher elevations; I.ut, speaking gen
orally, and with special reference to
the portions already settled n the
portion inviting settlement. we say,
without hesitation. there j. not a
finer climate in the world 1t il per
fec;ly beaithy. the air is dry, pure
and bracing; there Is no maiaria and
hence no ague Occur here WyOIn-
ing is free from the extremes OF heat
and cnld, the yearly average temper
AZURE being the same as that of Ohio
and Indiana. Our winters are
usually warmer and far plpaSanter
than those Of Illinois or Pennsyiva-
mia. Snow rarely falls to any con
siderable depth in the valleys, and
when il does, a warm sun or wind
usually takes it OF in a day or two,
so that cattle have abundant grazing
the year round.
RESOURCES
The special of Wyoming
are stOck-nising, mining aud. la
some portions, agriculture. Farm
lands are abundant in all the valleys
and when irrigated are not surpassed
for fertility and productiven' - As
to mining, Wyoming has rich depos-
its of gold, silver, copper, irUn, lead,
and coal. Our mines are, of course,
less developed than those of the oil Ter
Territories, owing to the presence of
hostile Indians in the richest mining
districts of this Territory. When we
are relieved from the presence of our
red brethren, that is when the gov
eminent takes measures to keep them
on their permanent reservation in
Dakota. the development of our min
ing interests, especially in the Black
Hills and Big Horn mountains, will
be on a scale that will surprise the
most sanguine.
