A PRONOUNCED WESTERNER.
Having Tried the East, he Came Back
West to Stay.

M. O. Sabin, of Albion, Cassia
county, came up last week, to look
after his mining interests, and to visit
with the family of w. 7. Riley, to
whom he is related. Having found
everything going on satisfactorily he
returned home. Mr.. Sabin is emf
nently Western man. A few years
ago, having made few thousand dol
lars in mining and business specula-
tons, he went back to his childhood's
home in Allegheny county, N. Y,
where he owns farm, and tried to
work it in the liberal, energetic West
era way. He bought some blooded
stock, new labor-saving machines,
and made many Improvements, then
sat down to do some thinking. The
crops were fair average about once
in three years, while every 10 years
there might be heavy crops. When
the crops were light prices were rea-
sonably high, while when the crops
were heavy prices were correspond
ingly low, On the whole, the farmers
managed, by indefatigable work and
the most rigid economy, to make both
ends meet occasionally. But they
we're generally in debt, and shaving te
pay interest. Mr.. Sabin concluded to
return West. So, renting the farm
for just about enough to. pay four pei
I cent. interest on the investment, be-
sides taxes, he came back to Idaho
where if man is lucky he has {
chance to earn fame and fortune
This is how Mr.. Sabin happens to b
such pronounced Westerner. III
, may come here to settle, next year, |
he finds an opening to suit him.

County Jailer Campbell had fight,
this morning, with the Chinaman in

PR0MPTNESS IN LEGISLATION.

We will give the author of the
Governors message credit for in.
cooperating one good suggestion,
namely, that in reference to early
action on bills in order that the Elk.
ecutive may have time TO properly
examine them. The habit Of delay
ing everything until the last mo.
ment, and then rushing business
through in a hurry, is not only a
dangerous way of making laws, but
is unfair to the Governor. The Ex-
ecHtive is held responsible for hts
absolute rejection or approval of a
bill, and in justice to him he should
have reasonable opportunity for
studying q measure that he may act
upon 1t intelligently. Besides, the
practice gives the Governor an ex-
cuse for rejecting good bills, en- the
plea that they reached him SO late
in the session that he was unable
to examine them; whereas, if they
were sent to him in time, he would
not dare have it go to the
country that he refused his assent.
1t is hoped that the presen! Legis-
lature will not pursue the course of
too many OF its predecessors, but
will perform large share of its work
early in the session, and place i'm. |
portant bills in the hands of the
Governor in time for him to examine
them and to suggest changes that he
may deem advisable. If this plan
is pursued better legislation is likely
to be the result, and on the last
night of the session the Executive
will not be overwhelmed with bills
that it is impossible for him to care
fully and intelligently scrutinize.
Whether or not the lawmakers
give heed to any other OF the Cover
nor's suggestions, it is hoped they
will pay attention to this one.

are with q grand Territory, which
has future as promisingly bright
as the MONDAY sun, and yet we
venture the assertion that not q
single member of the Legislature
has any Idea of the wealth invested
in Utah Territory; he can give no
clear idea of the years prosperity,
except IS it affects his business.
Who can give reasonable estimate
Of the number Of bushels of wheat

any other cereal? What the
increase Ia the value and
number of live stock? What the
revenue from exports How much
Of our own product is necessary for
home consumption or can give any
clear statement OF anything relating
to Utah's financial condition in
broad way ? Here are close on zoo. 900
people transacting business whose
detail is multitudinous, and about
which nothing, comparatively
speaking, is known by any person.
And does this Legislature hope to
Iegislate successfully for g people or
a community without clear know
ledge of its financial standing? AS
well might merchant apply to the
veriest stranger for advise as to the
conduct of a business about which
the stranger knows absolutely
nothing.
We cannot help believing that
the force of these assertions and
questions has been felt as keenly by
the members Of the Assembly as by
us; nor do we believe any labor will |
be necessary to put them in the mood |
for adopting measures which will re.
lieve the Territory from the effects
Of go unfortunate an oversight. We
are not prepared to say how it shall
be accomplished, for the way is more
patent to those by whom the law

4 BUREAU OF STATISTICS.

The able paper published in Sun
day mornings HERALD, over the
signature Of Professor Clayton, upon
which brief comment has heretofore
been made, set forth In clear andsble
terms, neglect Of long standing on
the part Of Utah Territory, with re.
gard to the mineral resources. 1t il
q cause for general solicitude that
some measure looking to the &C.
complement of what is there SET
forth as necessary, shall be passed
by the Legislature. But the mining
resources Of Utah are not the only
resources which require encourage
ment; for the arguments which are
so ably and SO clearly set forth by
the Professor in behalf Of bis cause,
apply with equal force in other d.
rections. ess I,
Two years ago, when the Legis-
lature was in session, a bill was
introduced and passed by both
branches Ct the Assembly, Great
ing the office OF Territorial
statisticisn, and named for the posi-
ton one Of the best men and
certainly the ablest man for the
place that has ever been numbered
among the citizans of Utah. We
refer to that good and noble soul, who
while not fully appreciated In life
still worked with love for Utah in
his breast as boundless as the re.
sources which he more than any
other being comprehended, Joseph
Z. Bsrfoot, for years curator of the
Museum. The bill, it was true, was
crude, and deficient in many re-
spects, but was a move in the right
direction, and the labors and ex-
perience of a statistician during the
past two years could have been
made the basis for more competent
legislation at the present session :;
but the bill failed of executive
approval, for the reason that it did
not give the Governor the appoint
ing power, and this objection was
sufficient, In the mind OF the Gov
ernor, to counterbalance the vast
good that could have been accom-
pIished had the bill been approved.
Be that as it may, each year,
every day the more clearly demon.

bureau of statistics is absolutely in

future welfare of the Territory. Any

THE WEATHER Is unusually cold
for the season, 1t must be admitted,
but the assertion that 1t is "the
coolest on record" Is a long way
wide of the truth, and only shows
how forgetful people are. So far the
winter has been milder than sny OF
its predecessors for a number of
years, and the little "spell" of
singing weather of the past few
days is by no means as severe as
the cold waves of last winter and OF

was of the highest rank, and the
guests who were hidden to the
church were of the most fashionable

coming OF the bride, and the groom,

the bride did not arrive. After a
long delay she drove up to the
church door and with her BRIDE
maids swept up the large middle
aisle toward the altar. In the
meantime the groom advanced
to meet her, and receiving her
half way, escorted her to the
dean. After the opening words
of exhortstion, the dean turned
to the man and asked him the usual
set questions, whether he would
have the woman for his welded
wife, etc TO which he answered, 81

she was in earnest, In a few words
dismissed the bewildered congrega-
tion and directed the bridegroom
to await him. The con-
gregation having departed, and
the lady and dean being
