MONTANA wooLMEN HAPPY.
They Sold Their Clips at First Class
Figures.


AS compared with the prices which
prevailed for several years prior to
the present, those realized by the wool
men of the west during the season of
1895, which is now practically over,
were very satisfactory, and the re-
ports received from the outside are to
the effect that the growers are very
happy over the success of the season.
They are confident that even better
prices will be obtained next year and
from them on. This feeling of COM
parative content is especially notice
able in Montana, where the average
price paid for wool during the entire
season was 111a cents. Here in Utah
the growers are not pulling such long
faces as was formerly the case, and
those who are not tied down with
party strings confess that they have
been agTeeably surprised by the work
ingS of the free wool act. At any rate,
they are less stringent in their remarks
anent the policy of the Democratic
party And well they may be, for the
arguments advanced by the act itself
are unanSWeTable The Big Timber
correspondent OF the Anaconda Stan
dard sends his paper the following re-
view of the situation at that important
wool center:
BIG TIMBER, July 26.-What has
been one of the largest wool seasons
in the history OF Big Timber is now
drawing to d close, and, unlike their
condition last year and the year pre-
ceding, the wool growers are compar-
atively happy.
At the beginning of the season it
was thought by most growers that If
they could obtain 8 cents per pound
for their clip they would consider
themselves fortunate. Under these
sold, -phile the wool was yet at their
respective ranches. Those who did so
were the losers, as the market opened
up al this point at 91a and 10, advanc-
ing to Il, i and Is cents, and again
dropping down to IL and a few points
over. The general average for all
wool sold here being about 1112 cents.
Believing that better prices would
prevail, the growers, assisted by the
company, this year decided to
make central markets and in a like
manner have special sale days. This
idea has worked remarkably well and
has proved mutually satisfactory to
the seller and the buyer. CentralizinS
the wool has also accrued to the ad-
vantage OF Big Timber as a shipping
point and this town this year takes
rank, without question, as the largest
wool shipping point in Montana, if not
in the entire northwest. The shipments
to date amount TO nearly 3,29O,OOO
pounds, with about 100000 pounds on
hand The total shipments from here
for the season of 1895 should easily ex-
coed 100000 pounds-and that is
large amount of wool. being trifie
less than one-fourth the entire clip of
the state.
For thirty years the Royal has been
the standard for purity and strength
in baking powders, and has been
placed al the head by every board of
official examiners, whether state or

states that it is the intention of the
company to put down number of

COUNTRY GETTING DRY.
weather Conditions Reducing Crops
in Beaver County.


in Beaver County.
South central Utah is becoming
rather dry and as a result the crops
will not be as heavy as was anticipat-
ed would be the case early in the sea-
son. Then, there was an abundance of
rain and the outlook was more hatter-
ing than for years, but it now develops
that the growing crops did not have an
opportunity to take full benefit of the
dampneSs, on account of the cold, and
the yield Of grain and general farm
produce win not be much if any heav-
Ter than last year. In fact, some To-
calities will show up with a three
quarters crop of grain and hay. This
was the news brought up from that
district by Hon. John r Murdoch of
Beaver, who is in the city for the pur-
pose of attending the sessions Of the
Republican, territorial committee. The
gentleman states that the season
opened most auspiciously but the full
promises were not realized and the
country is now becoming rather dry.
This is the case with farming lands
and ranges alike. 1t is not anticipated
that any damage other than a slight
shortage in the general crops viii re-
suit Harvesting is now well under
way.
Through the distribution of money
by the stock buyers the people of the
southern part of the territory are in
a comparatively prosperous financial
condition and the general business out
look is good. With proper railroad IA
cilities the southern end of the terri
tory would become the record breaker.

I have recently obtained samples of
the chief baking powders in the mar
ket, and have subjected them to care
full chemical examination to determine
their purity. wholesomeness and leav-
eniEg power. As the result of my
tests I find The Royal Baking Powder
superior to the others in every respect.
1t is entirely free from all adulteration
and unwholesome impUrity, and in
baking it gives off a greater volume of
1eavening gas than any other powder
1t is. therefore, not only the purest, but
also the strongest powder with which

Colonel George B. Squires yesterday
made public the mining statement of
this county. He has held this back
for some time, hoping to get some in
formation from the smelter men, but
they have failed to come to his relief.
Colonel Squires said yesterday he had
tried to get something from all of
them; had written letters without avail
and now he was going to make public
what little he could get. The facts he
has endeavored to secure are the fol-
lowing:
Number of men employed in 1894,
of ore reduced and cost to the shipper
per ton.
But having failed through no fault
of his own. the chief compiler feels
that he is not justified in keeping the
other information from the public.
The table as prepared is as appended.

There are fourteen gold mines in
operation and thirteen which are not.
One hundred and seventy-nine lead,
gold and silver combined were oper-
ated and lightweight were idle. Four
teen which yield gold, silver and cop
per were worked and twenty-three
were idle. Twenty gold and silver
mines were not operated. while there
were none which yield the two metals
alone and no other worked. Twenty
five silver and lead mines were allowed
to stand with no work.
Wages paid for the year amounted
to $340253, which was divided among
43S men.
The output in tons was 1926, the
value being SAP, $40.
The value of the plants of the mines
which were operated is 1851, 1875; the
value of the plants which were not
operated, $109, 725. the total value of the
plants being $790.920.
Ores concentrated for the year in

The development work being partly
estimated, it being impossible to arrive
at accurate conclusions with the mea-
gre information furnished, was $5,1O1,-
