BY this meaks a large numbtr OF
the young will be reached and the
desired object more readily attaine.
To this end the whole work of
mutual improvement has been di-
vided under four great heads: viz.
Theology, History, Science and
Literature, and there is nothing be-
yond this. No matter what the
young man desires to study, he
finds it here.
Our associations should begin on
this grand plan at once and, If not

making necessary improvements
each succeeding year until the ell

Wis difficult to always make

be seen that the best young
Ian any ward can produce is not
too good to be at the head of its

With the views expressed and
the advancing ideas thrown out
by Elder M. H. Hardy in his recent
visit to these organizations in this
Stake, we say that the above does
not overestimate the character OF
the young man who is chosen TO
head the ranks of the youth of Zion.
A great labor devolves upon
every young man who is chosen to
be the leader. the captain, the pre-
sident Of ward organization.
He should be sufficiently win
some to attract the young men

attainment of the best results, he
should be wise to see they do not

FAITH In TIE OUTCOME.

Why could not large number
Of the pc ople of Iron county utilize
several hundreds Of acres of land
now lying idle in this couHty7 Be-
tween Kanarra and Buckhorn
Springs there are thousands of acres
of most excellent land that with
little cultivation could be made to
produce splendid crops of alfalfa.
The seed of this is valuable. many
tons having been shipped from
Utah this year TO France. ltrt
IL is confidently stated by men
whose opinion in this matter is
positive, that Iron county is unpre-
cedented as an alfalfa producer,
and that this grass can be luxuri-
antly raised on the bottom lands
without irrigation, there being so
much surface water there.
The idea of men taking their fam
lilies from here TO other places in
order to make homes and raise
crops, is secuted and ridiculed.
Right here there is an abundance
of excellent land, and, with proper
attention, plenty of water. 1t makes
little difference which way men
choose to go. they will have diff
.ficult task trying to find better fac
ilities for crop raising than are to
be had in Iron county,
True, with the present compare
lively primitive regulations and
management ofwater, that element
runs short in some seasons, but
this thing requirers attention.
There are no more eligible cites
for reservoirs 10 be found anywhere
than right in the mountains of this
county. Ifthese places were sought
out and properly constructed dams

The Ruston Caligraph says:

The founders of the Progressive
League, despite the attacks of a senile
and slanderous press, are daily gaining
the ear OF the people, and wherever an
Intelligent consideration has been given
their course and propositions have won
appreciation and applause. Of course
their progress must be slow, for the rea-
son they. have the labor of discussing
prejudiced minds Of the mass of rot and
SANDER with which they have been load
ed by INSCRIPTIONS and scheming poll
ticians and journalists.
The Caligraph continues: In the near
future our section will be visited by rep
resentatives of the League, who will
meet the public openly and lay the mat
ter before them for consideration. No
effort will be made to bride or hood
wink a credulous public, but fair and
unvarnlshed statement of fact, and our
word for it, when an unprejqdiced con-
sideration is given them the League
will win, despite the efforts of those
who have persistently misrepresented
their aims and purposes. AS an evil
dence of their purity of purpose and
politics, the League as a Democratic
and public-sDirited organization will
submit their course for the approval of
the democratic party through the exc
cutlVe board and will receive its in
dorsement. Surely when Endorsed bv
the party it will be free from abuse and
Misrepresentation.

promising friends Gov. Nichols had in
the State. But the Major is large

also a strong Nichols man-so much so
that the grateful executive rewarded
his services with the office of assessor of
Concordia. But it seems that he, like
the Ma jor, was so blinded to all moral
considerations that he could not. appre-
ciate the enormity of the crime 1of per-
