Wake Up.

Harvest is about ended and Prowers
county, in the second year OF its existence
as agricultural territory, comes bravely
to the front with 10000 bushels Of
wheat, about $4,000 tons of alfalfa and
oats, barley, rye and corn in proportion.
1t is safe to say that next year these
amounts will be doubled, as thou
sands of acres are being and will be
broken: Not only will the acreage be
increased but the yield from the old
ground will be materially increased
These facts and figures can easily be YER
flied by investigation or inquiry. But.
as the REGISTER stated last week, these
facts have not been appreciated by many
at home, and of course not realized
abroad.
We have too many men, who, while
they do little themselves, lack the ener-
gy or inclination to watch the industry
and advancement Of others. They labor
under the delusion that erything is
going to the "demnition bow vows" and
their song and story is burdened with
adversely. II some man more energetic
and more pushing than others under
takes work, the great benefit of which
to this community can scarcely be esti-
mated, these croakers, who hold their
sway on sidewalks and goods boxes,
throw every stone in their reach in his
way, and then they sit and curse the
times, but never crawl out of their shells
to see the progress and prosperity around
them. Their existence is a nightmare,
and while they dream of woe, others are
building castles over them. They make
it point to croak and detract from eve
rything that relates to home, perhaps
not from spirit designedly malicious
but on account of thoughtlessness, and
the ignorance of their surroundings.
The feeling of calamity engendered
spreads like contagion, and when they
hear their own tales echoed by voices of
strangers they deem them slander. These
croakers and calamity howlers don't seem
to realize that they themselves are the
fountain heads OF all such falsehoods.
x*
The time has come when this bowling,
and abuse of the men, who are doing SO
much towards swinging old Prowers
county gloriously to the front, must be
made odious. Let us stand by those
who are standing by us. The man who
bnilds ditch that brings to our land
that God Of agriculture-W Water" the
man who faithfully tolls from day to day
and causes ''two blades of grass to grow
where there was but one the man, who
conducts in our midst any honest enter
prise of whatsoever kind or nature, is
friend to the community. He is at least
entitled to our well wishes and should
not be compelled to contend with our
antagonism.

prevailing winds will blow all un-
savory smells away from the hotel.
Good artesian water can be had at q
depth of 800 feet. This point is sur
rounded on three sides with water,
and affords the most charming view
on the coast. Plans for the hotel will
be begun tomorrow and construction

ent An anarchist spoke and urged the
assembled men to attack the police. The
speakers words so excited his hearers that
soon after q mob stoned the troops, which
were stationed in the neighborhood. Some
of the rioters hurled stones at the troops
from the windows OF the houses in the
neighborhood. GendarmeS at this point
fired upon the rioters and the cavalry i'm

When matters had Gained down somewhat
it was found that Signor Barzila, member

Signor Cipriani has been arrested.
The meeting numbered 5000.
The proceedings were quiet till the cav
airy, stationed in the square, were ordered
to mount, when panic seized the meeting.
Cipriani mounted the platform and
shouted: "We must act if we are not
cowaris.''
Then shot was heard, followed by a
shower of stones on the soldiers heads.
The cavalary were ordered to charge, and
there were more shots and volleys of stones,
but the rioters were dispersed.
Later on another sharp conflict occurred
between the soldiers and the mob in Victor
Emanuel square. Several persons were in
