otDON'T GRUMBLE.

Those who are in the habit Of grum-
bling, growing and always finding
fault with their own county and state
should quietly sit down, take up q
newspaper and begin to read of the
condition of other states. They will
find that the crops of the northwest
viii be shorter than those of our state.
In the Judith Valley in Montana not
more than eight inches Of snow and
rain together have fallen during
the past year. The farmers in all
cases where they do not have perfect
irrigation, are cutting their crops for
hay, as they will not half pay for their
seed, The snow on the mountains
was so little in that section last winter
that il was all gone by the first Of
June and there being no means by
which the mountain streams could be
supplied, the irrigating bitches did
very little to assist the growing crops.
Hay is reported TO be scarce, very
little remains from last years supply,
the grass on the prairie Is very short

Tho Tariff On Potatoes.
Iowa State journal.

One of the things that the McKin-
ley bill Is going to do for the farmers
of the nation Is to raise the duty on
potatoes. The tariff hes heretofore
been Is cents q bushel and it lie now
proposed to make it Is cents. Strange
as It may seem this country seldom
has potatoes to export, but in nearly
every year imports thousands OF BUSH
els from Canada and Europe, mainly
from Csnada and Scotland. The rates
OH shiploads are 80 low that Scotland
is to all intents and purposes nearer
New York and other eastern markets
than the producing states Of the north
west. Fit were not for the tariff the
foreigner would scnd over his goods
and food the market, shutting out the
western farmer. The tariff alone has
enabled the Iowa farmer to compete
with the cheap la Dor products OF Eu-
rope and the cheap transportation
rates OF Atlantic vessels. Free trade
papers are arguing that since the Uni
ted States Is al importer and not an
exporter of potatoes the tariff ought
not to be Increased, and should in fact
be removed entireUl 1t might posi-
bly, benefit the consumer of the east,
but it would he a serious injury to the
producer ofthe west. The farmer has
a right to be protected in his labor and
it is for his benefit that the Mckinley
bill proposes TO raise the duty, not the
eastern consumer.

The police officers Of New York
have been instructed to enforce the new
law intended to stop the use of cigar
cites by children in the streets. 1t
reads: mo child actually or appar'
emily under 16 years of age shall
smoke or in any way use any cigar or
cigarette or tobacco in any form what
soever, in any public street, place or
resort" This may, in the "small
boys" mind detract much from the
manly appearance of boy, but it will
no doubt facilitate his mental and
physical development as well as add
to the comfort of the public generally.

Leavenworth Times: The death-rate
among the veterans of the G. A. r. is
remarkably low. Out Of q total
membership of ASS, lao there were only
5476 deaths last year, or at the rate Of
twelve per thousand. This is far be-
low the average death rate Of the
country. Although the average death
rate is about sixteen per thousand i'm
GLIDING children, 1t might be expected
that the disabilities under which the
veterans suffer would balance that.

OUR MINING STOCKS
A Big Boom During the First
Week of the Exchange.
1888 SHARES CHANGE HANDS.
Bamberger SIashes, Treweek Thrusts, Wam-
pier Mauls, Stevenson Cups and Hyams
Balls up the Blood.
42,52S SHARES CHANGE HANDS

The first week on change has been as
full of interest as a bull fight There We're
passes and thrusts, many severe cuts, but
no mortal wounds. The men were on their
metal, sizing each other up. And 1t was
curious to see the number of feelers put
out to draw an opponent off his guard.
Each man was taking the measure of every
other man as accurately as if he expected
to meet him on a E'renchman's terms.
Bamberger slashed right ard left: Ire
week made keeL thrusts; Wampler mauled;
Stevenson made neat cuts. While Louis
Hyams stood by to bail up the blood.
That was how 1t looked to a man who
dropped in and didn't know what it all
meant.
And yet that battle Of the giants was a
commercial transaction which will affect
the market values of the mines of Utah and
other territories. 1t was traficing in
stocks representing many of the mines that
have yielded $3.50, 600, and specializing
on those that may so far exceed these that
the great Ontario will be looked upon as a
very tame affair.
The weeks business was highly credit
able and far in excess of the most sanguine
predictions:

also present. He is also a heavy owner in

In American Fork District.

Major Wilkes, of Salt Lake, and formerly
manager of the Nlillar mine, was in town
the other evening, and was accompanied by
Mr.. Garnick, of Colorado. They both
were quiet and close-mouthed as to their
business, but by daylight Wednesday
morning they were seen moving up the
CANON. A reporter of the Independent was on
their trail all the evening, and ascertained
From their conversation that they will pro
coed to the Silver Bell then will examine
the Live Yankee, Austin and the famous
cid Millar mines. The Colorado party win
purchase the first three, and obtain a lease
on the AIillar, and the old times viii be re
newed in this camp within ninety days.
Our reporter, learning that Major Wilkes
was formerly manager of the NIillar group
asked him what kind of a camp this was in
olden ;inaS. The major said: There IS
no camp today in Utah as good as the
American Fork, and il is bound TO come to
the front again before long. There never
was richer body Of ore struck anywhere
than in the Niiilar. We worked for weeks
and weeks upon one pocket OF ore, and
never used pick nor blast. The ore was so
rich and easy TO work that we could SCOOP
it out with a shovel. and that is what we
did. 1t run 10 ounces silver, 80 per cent
lead ana $40 gold, and smelted so perfectly
that il ran like water At one time we had
$50, 900 worth Of bullion corded up like
wood There was about 81. SOC. 600 taken
out of this mine in seven months y II
understand, major, that the ore in this
camp generally is of a high grade, and the
surface groupings are very rich!n ''Yes.
There are many places where you can take
q pick and sack and gather wagon loads of
rich ore right on the surface" Here an
interruption occurred, and we were unable
TO obtain any further information.-Iilde

PROVO POINTS.
A nipping frost fell last night.

The poles for the electric light wires are

The county Jail, built by the Pauly Jail
Building company, and warranted ito keep
IN any climate was the subject of an at
tack by four of its inmates a few days ago.
With couple of small pieces of file, an old
irons, they cut ''man hole" through the
supposed inpregnable cage, and were dis
covered in their little game just before
they had succeeded in breaking the outside
bar and making good their escape.
The county court met this week and
shuffied off good deal of business. The
assessors report showed total valuation
OF property in the county of 10,2l6,9 l6.
tax of one and one-half mills for county
purposes. and one-half of one mill for
school purposes, was levied. j. A. Rees,
of Spanish Fork, and Prof. j. E. Merrill,
of Provo, were elected members Of the
county board of examiners.
The joint teachers institute to be held in
Pleasant Valley will be attended by great
many persons other than teachers A fine
programme has been prepared. The place

leys in the territory, and glorious time is

There is another hitch in the street rail-
way business. Contrary to the advice of
your correspondent, given in THE HERALD
some time ago, the directors of the road
concluded to run the line to the lake in
stead of building through the streets of the
city. Well, they had gotten about half q
mile beyond the west end, when the cues
ton arose as to which of the two or three
resorts on the lake shore they were tc
build to. A committee of five stockholders
was appointed to examine the matter and
report which they did, recommending that
the terminus for the present be fixed al
the crossing of the Rio Grande Western
track, about quarter of mile short Of
where the road is already constructed to-
And here the matter lies smolderipg 1t is
to be hoped that this recommendation will
