The W'drrens Wagon Road.

We hear that Josh Fockler
has offered to build the pro-
posed wagon road between
Warrens and the Warm Springs
for $4,000. The distance is 20
miles. Work will only be re-
.quired on about twelve miles.
A good road is already built
from the town Of Warrens to
Gov. Willey's mill, on Steam
boat creek, a distance of four
miles. From this point it is
claimed that a good road can
be built to Stratton creek, dis
lance three miles, for $500.
From Stratton creek to the
mouth of Long gulch, distance
four miles more, some work
will be required all the way,
but not much rock work.
From Long gulch to the Warm
Springs, distance ten miles,
the route traverses the level
stretch of beautiful meadows
which skirt the Secesh creek.
The ground here is soft in the
wet season; a thin surface OF
soil rests on gravel, and in a
few places corduroy is neces-
sary. Secesh creek is crossed
twice. If bridges are necessary
they can be built by the coun-
ty government under existing
statutes. But bridges could be
dispensed with for a time IF
good graveled grades were
made at the crossings, so that
teams would not mire. There
will notlikely be much freight
ing during the high water pc
Rod, and the banks are not
more than four feet high at
the crossings.
Ifan offer to build the road
for $4,000 or any less sum is
made, it is highly probable
that the citizens of Warrens
will raise the amount at once
and provide for the immediate
construction Of the road this
summer. 1t is a lot of money
for 80 small a number of peo-
pie in 80 isolated a country to
raise; but an emergency exists,
and we believe the people will
be equal to the occasion.
Once the road is built, the
revenue Of that road district
will be more than sufficient to
keep it in good condition. 1t
costs but little if any more to
keep a wagon road open than
it does a trail. And wagon
roads are essential to the pros
perity of that country.

The Sub Treasury Scheme.

The sub-treasury scheme as
proposed by the Farmers AL
lance is losing favor as it is
being dissected. The PROPOSE
ton is to have the government
build warehouses in the most
productive agricultural coun-
ties all over the country and
lend money to the farmers on
the wheat, cotton, etc, brought
there to be stored. The idea
is that by this means the far
mer would be able to put off
selling his crop until later in
the season if the harvest prices
did not suit him. But there
would come a time when the
produce would have to be sold
to pay the loan, so the scheme,
even if there were no other
objections to it, would only
postpone for a few months the
time when large quantities of
produce would have to be
thrown on the market, and pri-
ces would then break worse
than if no attempt had been
made to boost them up. The
Farmers Alliance are on the
wrong tack. The remedy for
the evils which afflict the ag-
ricultural interests will be
found to lie in unrestricted
freedom of trade with all the
world. The time has come now
when the farmers of America
must choose between the
Protective Tariff and the
sold Homestead" We are on
the edge of a smoking volcano
whose fires have been kindled |
by thirty years of class legisla-
ton and protection of favored
interests at the expense of the
great body of the people. We
must return to the firm ground
Of sound political principles or
there will be fearful upheav-
Il. Let the Farmers Alliance
demand that there shall be no
more taxation Of general for the
ens@ Of special interests, and
he republic will be safe.

Those Scrip Cases.

In the article published in the SEN
TINEL three weeks ago concerning those
Ontonagon scrip cases we unintention-
ally did Col. Worden the special agent
OF the department, an injustice. No
timber was seized by him as stated, and
his report to the department was fair
and unobjectionable. He found 10
trespass had been committed. The
notice to settlers was pretty severe, but
has since been somewhat modified.
The following is an official copy of the
later instructions:
"You will now promptly advise the
settlers on these lands that until their
titles thereto are confirmed they will be
allowed the use of only such timber as
is absolutely necessary for the improve
ments on the land, or for their own use
Us fuel They will be held strictly ac-
countable for any violation of the law
which does not allow waste or damage
to the public domain.
The land must not be deprecated in
value to the claimant to whom title may
be confirmed.
You will also advise the settlers that
they are on the land ut tn ir own isk,
and if the title thereto is C ,niirmed to
the soldiers additional homestead
claimants they may lose the improve
ments they have placed thereon"
The foregoing IS signed by w. NJ.
Stone, acting commissioner, and con-
tains nothing but what tho settlers had
been advised of long before by their at
torneys.
We are reliably advised that well
known firm of Washington attorneys
will make written contracts to get the
entries Of actual settlers on these lands
allowed within six months, contin-
gent fee to be paid them only in case
the entries are allowed within that
time. 1t would seem that the cases of
the settlers are not very desperate.

senses Go to Sleep in Definite Order.

senses uo ~ Stccp III DChhAtc OAoea'
According to the best writers on the
subject, it has been ascertained that in
beginning to sleep the senses do not
unitedly fall into a state of slumber, but
drop off one after the other. The sight
ceases, in consequence of the protection
of the eyelids, to receive impressions
first, while all the other senses preserve
their sensibility entire. The sense of
taste is the next which loses its suscept-
bility to impressions, and then the sense
of smelling.
The hearing is next in order, and last
of all comes the sense of touch. Fur
thermore, the senses are thought tosleep
with different degrees of profoundness
The sense of touch sleeps the most
lightly and is the most easily awakened;
the next easiest is the hearing; the next
is the sight, and the taste and smelling
awake the last.
Another remarkable circumstance de
serves notice; certain muscles and parts
of the body begin to sleep before others.
Sleep commences at the extremities, be-
ginning with the feet and legs, and
creeping toward the center of nervous
action. The necessity for keeping the
feet warm and perfectly still as a pre-
iminary of sleep is well known. From
these explanations it will not appear
surprising that, with one or more of the
senses, and perhaps also one or more
parts of the body, imperfectly asleep,
there should be at the same time an i'm
perfect kind of mental action, which
produces the phenomenon of dreaming.

wyoming's Woman Miner.

Mrs. Shane, widow with two chill
dren, came to Wyoming two years ago
and took up her residence in Jawbone
gulch, Silver Crown mining district,
where she took claim and with her
own hands has kept up the assessment
work. The claim promises to be pay
ing one, and already she has uncovered
body of rich gold quartz, with indica-
tions of richer ore as depth is gained.
Mrs. Shane is a soldiers widow, and is
lady of fine education. Her cabin in
Jawbone gulch bears evidence of refine
ment. and while it is in one of the most
out of the way places in the camp she
has any number of visitors, among whom
will be found the best people of Silver
Crown and the surrounding country.
To judge from appearances she is
about thirty-fve years old. She has
brown hair, blue eyes and fair and intel
lectual face. For the past year she has
been teaching the Silver Crown public
school. by which means she has made
her living while waiting for her mine to
reach pay.-Cor. Denver Republican.

The Duty of the Church to the Poor.

The Duty OF the church to the Poor.
1 do not hesitate to say that the de-
velopment of the power of self help, self
respect and self dependence can be and
should be the work of the Christian
church in all her branches. If Chris
tianity cannot, to this extent, leaven the
masses of the wage workers, it has failed,
and, at least temporarily, must continue
to fail. The wild ruin resulting from
that failure may recall the church of
Christ to field that her faithless dis
obedience has led her for a time to aban-
DON
She believes in the value of man, for
in him, be he never so fallen, she sees a
spark of everlastingness. She processes
to accept her Masters commands as di-
vine laws binding on herself. His words
and acts are perfectly plain; he never
contemplated the abolition of all power
ty, but he did distinctly command that
men should, es they valued his gospel OF
professed obedience to himself, draw
near to each other, forgetting and ignor.
ing those things that for short time
made them to differ.
He declared that the innermost and
eternal verities of our nature all men
have in common, and that his followers
were to make much of these, while they
were to make less of their differences of
possession and attainment Weakness,
failure, poverty were to draw US to ou1
brother, not drive US from him. for il
the prevalence of these drawing, uniting,
loving forces over the sundering and
disuniting forces lay the hope of oul
race-he called it the coming of the
kingdom of the Son of Man.-Rev Dr.
