No More MOrmonism for Her.

Israel Pinkham and wife moved
from Maine many years ago to Utah
Territory. They passed through Salt
Lake the other day on their way to
their old home, and the old lady made
no secret of the cause of their return.
To reporter for a Gentle newspaper
she said: "My husband and have
lived together these forty-three years,
and though we joined the MormOns
twenty years ago nothing was ever
said about polygamy until this Spring.
Then some sneaking priests came
round and got the old man worked up
with the idea that he must have one or
two more wives. Not much, Israel
Pinkham, says 1; we've travelled
together this fur and no Mormon will
separate us now. We've got two sons
and a darter back East who shan't
have anybody poking fun at them {;
and there's the two little boys that we
buried back in Maine, who won't have
no occasion to pint their fingers at us
when we cross over to the ether shore.
This thing has gone just as fur as it's
going to. Israel Pinkham, we're going
back to Maine, says l, and whether
we've got one year or ten years to live,
Wen end this here pilgrimage decent,
as we begun it, Amt that what /
told youP" said she addressing the old
man, who had been a silent listener.
He smiled in faint way and nodded
assent. "We're going back to Maine,
continued the old lady, "pOOrer than
when we came out here, but wiser and
no wuss, so far as 1 know. Theren
be no more Mormon in this family."-

A POOR, RICH MAN.

From the tower with muilled knell
Tolls the heavy, funeral bell;
Through the village cometh slow
Yonder train in weeds of woe.
Stately, in its pompous gloom
Mods the hearse with many plume;
And the Summer sun serene
Looketh calmly on the scene!
Poor, rich man
Just week ago he died,
In his haughtiness and pride;
Not one loving tear was shed
In the chamber of the dead;
Doctors, nurses. none could save
From the cold and lonesome grave;
So they bring him forth to lay
Him with the earth to-day.
Poor, rich man.
Never poverty was blest,
Never penury caressed,
Never deed of love was done,
4NChtE llluilhS AIOul aOLlOM hO4
By yOn rich man-nOw 50 poor!
Never opened was his door
To the weary or the worn,
TO the friendless or forlOrn.
Poor, rich man!
And so, no one mOurns his death;
Love watch'd not his failing breath;
But the priests chant soft and low,
And the bell rings dull and slow;
And the mOurners chat and smile
AS they leave the churchyard aisle.
None can sorrOw-nOne can weep
That the rich man lies asleep
And the poorest in the crowd
Scorn his memory aloud!

Wool Rates.

The through rate on wool in sacks
from all points on the main line of the
Northern Pacific in Washington terri
tory to Philadelphia and other eastern
cities has been reduced to 1888 per 100
pounds when shipped in carload lots of
Il, 900 pounds or over, and $3.50 in lots
Of less than $4,000 pounds.-Pioneer
Press.
| The wool growers Of Washington ter
ritory are Disseminated against because
there is no other outlet. The rates for
points in Montana are much less because
6f the great Missouri river, which even
now, with no railroad connections at
Fort Benton, is a leveler of rates.
when we have a railroad its good inf1u-
ence will be exerted to a much greater
extent.

Fort Benton.

Perhaps no place in the United States
north of New Mexico and west of the
Mississippi is SO old and yet SO new as
Fort Benton. The American Fur COM
pany had for some years occupied the
site when in 1850 they constructed the
first adobe building which became the
nucleus of the present thriving town.
It's advantageous situation as a trading
post among the Indians gave it an early
prominence, and later when steamboats,
began to ply the upper Missouri it as
sumed additional Importance as the
head Of navigation. It has for many
years been the principal supply point
for the northwest, including the British
territory. The advent Of the railroads
is restricting the scope Of its trade, but
its situation in the midst Of one Of the
finest grazing regions in the west will
give it a new and permanent impor-
lance if the live stock industry in all its
branches is properly fostered by capital
and Neutrality-suspicious. of Live Stock
