PINE VALLEY WARD


is one of the prettiest little places that
have ever seen. being almost surrounded by
mountains. those on the south and east
are very high and covered with a scanty
growth of pine timber. The mountains on
the north are low, while those on the west
could very properly be called hills. The
name, Pine valley, was originally given to
the pace because the upper end of it was
one solid mass of pine trees. and in the
days when Phoebe was a f1ourishing mining
camp, there were five saw mills and three
shing,e mills running at full blast and the
owner S found a ready market, mainly in
Phoebe, for their entire output. To-day
there is but single shingle mill in the
valley on account of the timber on the
mountains being almost wholly used up.
Robert Gardner was the pioneer of this
valley and to-day it might very appropri-
ately be called Gardnerville, as William
Gardner is the bishop and from one-fourth
to one-tl ird of the inhabitants are children
and grandchildren of Robert Gardner
The farming land is about SIX hundred
and forty acres, and the valley is about
t 70 by six miles in extent | am
convinced that there are few more pic
Curesque spots to be found in the noun
tains than this little rlace. The high noun.
tains on the south and east are beautifully
ii tied at this season of the year, and Ger
talnly must rival the far-famed autumnal
tints of Switzerland. There are some very
nice blick house in the place, and the
people there have good frame building of
two stories used as meeting and school
house. Considering the size of the ward.
there only being about three hundred souls
all told, the building is certainly very
creditable one. l should Judge that Pine
valley is from l, 200 to !, 20Of feet higher than
Salt Lake city and fully $500 feet above
St. George. At 40 p. IN. we held meet
ing with the people, and after President
Macarthur, his counselor, A. w. Wins, and
myself had addressed them, programme
was carried out, consisting of songs, lines
of welcome, speeches, etc, in honor of
Brother H. j. Burgess, who had just re-
turned from an extended mission to New
Zealand. At the close of the exercises
refreshments We're passed around; dance
for the children followed and in the even
ing the members of the ward assembled
and engaged in social gatherin ,
in a whole-sOuled manner. The Il 3lcr
lack of fOrmahty of the country dance is,
to my mind, its chief attraction; this occa-
sion was one of thorough enjoyment
throughout. My first trip to Pine valley
will always be associated with pleasant
rccollectiops.

THOUGHTS BY CARMEN SILTA.

Jealousy in a lover Is homage; in a husband an insult.
 Happiness Is like the echo; 1t answers but does not come.
 Maternal love is an instinct; but there are instincts of divine origin.
 Forgiveness is almost indifference; who really loves does not forgive.
 Seek consolation only in immortal things; in nature and in thought.
 Friendship based solely upon gratitude is like photograph; in time 1t fades.
 A man in love is like an ostrich; he thinks he is not because he does not see others.
 Friendship diminishes when there is too much happiness on the one side and too much misery on the other.
 There is but one happiness-duty. There Is but one consolation-work There is but one delight-the beautiful.
 woman does not become a mother she is one from her birth. A numerous family satisfies her creation; it does not create it..
 A household without children is bell without clapper. The latent sound would be beautiful enough were there something to awaken it.
 Happiness at a distance appears so great as to touch the sky. When it enters our door it so dwindles that very often we no longer recognize it.

BOotblack Sherm an's Unique Kit.

Arthur Sherman, a young bootblack who drifted into Chicago @ few days ago to pay cursory visit, Is the proprietor of curiosity in the shape of a foot rest, which is closely studded with valuable old coins set into the wood. It was over four years ago when young Sherman left his home in Milwaukee and started out to see the world. He has accomplished his object, and during the past four years has visited nearly every city in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
 Among the coins with which his black ing box Is decorated are Danish pieces dated from 1880 to 1695 Turkish coins of 1925 and 1851, Russian ruble o1 1770, an English sixpence of 158l, New Jer- sey cent of 1787, coin about the size of a dime with the Lords prayer engraved upon 1t.

PROHIBITION IN PENNSYLVANIA


 The coming election in Pennsylvania, when the state is to vote on the ques- ton of constitutional prohibition, is att tracting much attention throughout the country and is generally regarded, in its effect upon the country at large, as by far the most important and far reach ing of any election on the prohibition issue yet held in the republic. It is looked upon as of wider national signifi- canoe than the recent contests in the New England states. and for that reason extraordinary efforts are being put forth by the prohibition leaders to awaken in terest and secure support for the pro- bibitory amendment. The election will he held on the 18th of this month, and from now until then a host of eminent temperance workers will strain every nerve to bring recruits to their cause. Such veteran workers as Mrs J. Ellen Foster. Dr Milner and others from all parts of the country are already hard at if and will be reinforced later on by

THE president may build up Harri- son machine during his administration, but there will be found plenty of repub- licans who will be both willing and able to smash it in 1892. If Mir Harrison thinks such men as Blaine and Sherman, Quay and Dudley, Tom Platt and Gull lom are afflicted with short memories he will have a chance to change his mind when the next convention comes around. These men would very much rather see a democrat in office, we think, than republican whose highest ambition by his own confession is to satisfy himself. Fs .5.

THREE Ohio newspapers have come out for Mckinley for president in 1892. 1t is safe, therefore, to assume that their editors have no political ambitions to satisfy at tbis time. And it is likewise safe to assume that not one of these three editors will be picked out for an appointment under this administration

Mr.. Gladstone made an address at
Chester, England, on Saturday, on
the condition of the working classes.
He urged English workmen to study
the history of the American Revo-
luton. He claimed that it was by and
from this country that love of freedom
was sown in America. England now in
return reaPed advantages from the Amer
ican vindicanon of those principles Of
freedom which animated tho Revolution.
The system of government in America
combined that love of freedom, respect
for law and desire for order vi ich
formed the surest elements of national
excellence and greatness. a.
1t vas no extravaganza to say that, al
though there were only two millions of
people in the thirteen States at the time
of the Revolution, the :group of states
men that proceeded from them were q
match for any in the whole history Of the
world and we're superior to those Of any
one epoch. Their fortunate appearance
was doubtless due to well-regulated,

"The United Labor League, some

to give his reasons for voting against the

quest Mr.. Boyer has made no reply, and
the League, at its last meeting, adopted a

Boyer's action.
The Ballot Reform bill was one of the
most important measures before the last

was public calamity. Mr.. Boyer ls the

MR. JOHN THOMAS GIVES HIS VIEWS
OF THE MATTER

Strongly in Favor of Cancellation rider
Would lac Better-Taxation Would Not
Necessarily bo Incressed-Not n Quss-
tIon of Dollars and Cents, but the Gen
eral Public Good.
Mr.. John Thomas, senior member of
the firm Of j. Thomas 81 Sons, was inter-
viewed yesterday evening. Mr.. Thomas
has extensive business interests here and
is the owner OF much real estate in several
of our bOroughs. AS to whether he
thought all the boroughs of the valley
should unite and become city, Mr..
Thomas said:
81 am for consolidation by all means.
| believe i, to be for the interest of all our
peopl,. All our boroughs have more to
do tlnlo they, as boroughs, are able to do.
Improvements of every kind are needed.
and with each borough struggling for
itself tncy cannot be ma !e.
What 40 you think of the taxation
scare ?" asked the reporter.
There is nothing in it. want the
improvements, and do not care for the
question of few dollars. We cannot
improve with nothing. We must have
money to make them. 1t will cost "a city
far less than it will cost the different
boroughs, each one working by itself"
"How do you think the expense of
running city government would COM
pare with maintaining our ten bor-
oughs ?"
1t would be less, much less, in my
opinion. In many instances it would be
clearly an economical move. We should,
as city, have only one chief executive,
a mayor, instead of ten Burgesses, as at
present. How much would our expenses
be increased by such move In many
other matters IL would be the same. A
number of different municipal buildings
would not be necessary. With city we
should have fewer officers than by the
present system.
"Order would certainly be better If we
had a city. have been strongly in favor
of consolidation this long time. But, If
we are ever to consolidate, now is the
time. Our needs are greater now. United
We shall be better able to build up ouI
city. A question of few dollars and
cents should not decide the matter, but
