Twenty years ago Horace Greeley
and William II. Seward said: There
is no soil favorable TO the creation
and fattening Of monopoly in the
United States. The country was too
large. they said, and its interests too
diversified. But they did not divine
the future, for to-day the giant rail
road monopoly and the giant bank
ing monopoly are crushing the life out
of the people. The telegraph monop-
oily, together with the iron and coal
and land monopohes, is supplement-
ing the first two, aud altogether there
il not to be found anywhere a better
monoPoly-grOwing country than Ours.
The contest is between the people
and the mOnopolies. 1t remains 10
be seen which viii come Of FIRST best

MIRA Thompson, the Jessy Lewars Of
Robert Burns, died In Dumfries, May 26th
1855, at the advanced ageof noarlyI four
score years. The ,Scotspsdn newspaper
speaks of her as follows;
'"Persons familiar with the life Of the po-
ct will remember that Jessy LEVERS was on
the most intimate terms with Burns and his
family. ~l yoInI the short interval
which took place betwixt the poets return
from Brow and his death, Jessy Lewars was
unremitting In her attention ito Mrs Burns
and the children. E. 49, It must not be
| FORGOTTEN that Jessy Lewars closed the eyes
Of the poet, diinmed in death Athat eye OF
which Sir Walter Scott said, Il have, seem
most of the eminent men of my day, but
never saw an eye like Robert Burns's.
sf,sat~ Her warm friendship for and un-

the claims which the memory Of Jessy Le-
wars has upon the affection and grateful re-
membrance of the admirers OF Robert
Burns. When In his later days evil reports

BUILDING MATERIAL.

The Wood River Miner, of HALEY, Idaho,
thus describes the timber of that region
ZINE timber Is abundant on ali the high
mountains OF the Wood and Salmon river
region. Just about HALEY, ut the base oil
the mountains, there il but little. but
beautiful tongues OF evergreen forest run
down the mountain side three miles further
mp, and from Warm Spring creek, fourteen
miles above Haley, through to the British
possessions, Is almost one unbrOken forest.
The best timber Tor mining purposes Is the
req ilr, which is very strong and tough, and
grows mostly in the lower hills. Up higher
IN the mountains predominates the black
pine, better adapted for charcoal Cordwood
etc. Some spruce ana white or basam fir,
with the red fir and black pine, comprise
about all the species of the coniters grow
lnE III this section. The cottonwood, alder
ana quaking asp grow along the streams. "
mat paper uIther says there are no
Indians in the entire Wood river country,
ana the prOspeCtOr or settler is rs safe from
their depredations there as he would be
anywhere along the Ohio. Extensive
planning mills are wanted at HALEY. There
is II vast and rapidly increasing consump-
ZION OF lumber and no planning mill within
