JACKsoN's HOLE,

The JaChson'S Hole country, situated
in the northern part Of Wyoming is at
tracing considerable attention in the
eastern part of Utah and adjoining
states.
A gentleman who recently returned
from that section is most enthusiastic
in his praises, and says during his ex-
plorations he came across several Nor
mon families who had settled in the
southern part of the valley, and who
had prospered amazingly, although
many miles from any neighbors or
friends. One wheat field was pointed
out which yielded last summer at the
rate of CO bushels to the acre.
The mineral prospects are said to be
excellent and of game and fish there is
scarce an end.
The section is isolated, and that is
one Of the reasons why it has not be
fore attracted the attention of those
people who are casting about for a
new location. It is said to offer es-
pecial inducements to young men.
Colorado and Wyoming people who
paid the section a visit last fall are all
loud in its praise.

REED AND SILVER.

1t has been the custom of some of the
most sanguine of the western Repub-
licans. when pressed for a reason why
they can pretend to be lighting for free
silver while giving their allegiance to
their party, to claim that the wonder
full transformation Of their party into
one which is to restore silver is to
come through the fundamentally of
that straddltng statesman known as
Car Reed, of blaine
They have generally admitted that
they had little on which to base their
prediction. They could not pretend
that the boss Of the Republican side Of
the House had shown any OF that rug
Iged courage attributed to him in the
mythical legends of the Republican
party. On the contrary, they could
bring as evidence only the article he
contributed some time ago to a London
magazine, in which he stated that he
believed silver and protection should
go hand in hand together, and that the
United States would force the countries
of Europe into the recognition of the
one through the unstinted use OF the
other.
Yet on such a fimsy foundation as
this these silver Republicans have
built an airy castle Of hope that
reaches higher up than the famous
bean stalk of the historical Jack. When
one contemplates their guillibility
there is scarce. room for wonder that
silver has not yet been remonetized.
But If anything has been needed to
set at rest any lingering idea that
Reed is a silver man, his attitude on
the question Of gold bonds would settle
that. On this question the majority Of
the Democratic side declared their de-
termination to cut loose from a Demo-
cratic administration that refuses to
remain true to Democratic monetary
principles In unison with Senator
Vest. they have said it is not pleasant
to differ with the head of the party,
but they wiz go no further with him
in this lead. Clearly ana Enthusiastically
the free silver men OF the Democratic
party have determined to nominate a
free silver man in 1895 andsto fight the
matter out on that line.
Yet the man Of Maine, whose author
iity the silver Republicans dare not
dispute above their breaths, has taken
an attitude On the question Of gold
bonds and In favor Of a measure that
more than anything else, binds the

country down to the single gold stand
administration that does not represent
their views and is determined to give
nothing to free silver. that adninistra-
ton is not left without friends. In its
hour of desertion, when there is a
chance Of a compromise being made,
the mighty Reed is nigh. Nor shall
the Reed be bent by the hurricane Of
protest that comes from the free sill
yer Republicans.
Now what will the Republicans Of
the west do? There is no longer any
excuse for denying what The Herald
has continually told them about Reed S
attitude. Will they forsake him and
say to him as the Democrats have said
TO the administration, that their ways
lie apart? Or Will they continue to in
Jure the cause Of silver by their sup
port of one whose elevation to the
presidency would but signalize the tri-
umph for four years longer of the gold
bug policy dictated by Wall street. and
Lombard street in joint session?
On this matter the Omaha World
Herald suggests a ticket that would
suit the goldites of both parties nicely.
Realizing that the issue In '96 will be
financial, and that the contest will be
between the capitalists of the east
and northeast and the rest of the peo-
lple, it suggests the probability of a
combination Of Republicans and
Democrats in those regions under the
ticket of "Cleyeland and Reed " and
goes on to say:
Mr.. Cleveland has already been en-
Enthusiastically indorSed in the money
eenters because Of his demand for
ponds, and the Endorsement has come
from bankers and f1nanciers without
regard to politics. Mr.. Reed voted for
the Springer bill when the final test
came, and thus put himself in line with
the financial forces. There is no ques-
! ton that Cleveland and Reed on a
! presidential ticket would draw to the
ticket all sold standard Democrats
and Republicans.
That will do for little bit Of pleas
antry. But, seriously, it shows where
Reed stands on the financial question
His bimetalhsm is Of the same kind as
Benjamin Harrison's, and Of the ma
Jority of the Republican party. The
/ proper thing for the Democrats to dc
is TO decide on a vigorous silver policy
independent Of what may be done in
Europe. That should be the issue in '9G
and there should be no diversion OF
! Democrats into the ranks of any kind
/ of third party, no matter by What
name it may be called

ONE on Villas,

Mr.. Villas was discoursng in loud
tone of voice on the postoffice appropri-
alton bill the other day in the senate
! Good deal of noise in there" remarked
q gentleman to one OF Mr.. Villas aSSO-
ciated in the lobby outside the senate
! chamber.
Yes replied the senator. with a faint
smile, at reminds of a story they
| tell on Villas. 1t was a hot day in july
| up i'll Madison, Wis, where Senator Villas
has his home-I don't know how many
years ago. There was case on trial in
| the court house. The influence of the op-
IpressiYe heat had caused half the jury
/ to fall asleep and the Judge to nod droWs-
lily on the bench. Half the population of
the town had put up the shutters and
Iretired to enjoy siesta-
| suddenly fri6ntful noise burst upon
1.-THE Shimmering atmosphere and aroused
I the drowsy population from its torpor as
| if the cave of the winds had set loose its
ldogS of war upon the startled communi-
! ty. Men, women and children rushed into
! the street TO learn what OCCaSiOned this
iunwanted disturbance. The noise was
heard to emanate from the court house.
What has happened, cried the peo-
Iple, rushing about in sore confusion.
| What is the matter at the court house?'
| "While the excitement was at its
height, a chronic customer of the tap
room, with hair all aWry and hat on one
( ear, stumbled out of a saloon right in
the path Of the excited popuiace, and
cried:

TWO PALACES Exploded.

The news that a prominent Utah
business man proposes to start "a sugar
factory up north, does not fit in very
well with the cry that the repeal of
the bounty law would ruin all the
sugar industries Of the country. 1t is
believed that with proper business
skill and enerSy and the use of ma
chinery continuously, with the utiliza-
ton Of all the material Of the beet pro-
duct that is possible, the manufacture
Of sugar from beets can be carried on
without artificial aid, at fair profit
on the capital invested.
This Is what stimulates efforts to
establish other sugar factories in Utah.
It is true, perhaps, that the very ex-
cellent institution at Lehi has not yet
Melted it's stockholders much revenue.
we hope and believe it will reach a
good paying basis. An industry that
| cannot do that after several years OF
experience, ought not to be supported
out Of public funds. Therefore a
bounty would be wrong in principle
| for it would be devoting public money
to private uses for the support Of an
Improbable venture.
! There has been much discussion over
the reduction Of the price Of beets from
| FIVE dollars to four dollars per ton. Ii
what the farmers and the manufac-
turers have both claimed be true, and
! we have no occasion to doubt it, the
former Will be gaining very largely
at the reduced price for beets, in the
change from cultivating their ground
for wheat, oats, barley or potatoes
And with the experience gained in the
work they will be able. no doubt, tc
make as much off their land in the
coming year at four dollars per ton fo1
beets. as they did the first year Of cul.
tiyation at five dollars per ton.

teal system of the United States.
Another bugaboo raised by the enc.
mics OF the Wilson tariff bill at its
inception was, it would ruin the WOO
| trade and drive wooden manufactur.
ers out of the business. Instead Of
doing that the prospects for both in
dustries are improving all the time.
| it is certain that American wool
( growers, says protection organ. 'dC
not intend to give up the market tt
/ foreign countries. Two new and i'm
portant methods of cleansing WOO
have been devised in New England
| one by the use Of naphtha and tht
other by a hydro-carbon solvent which
saves the valuable grease and potash
OF the fiber for other purposes. These
methods are said to improve the wool
leaving it whittier and softer and il
better condition for dying" and ye
this is one of the organs which de
clared over and over during the pen
dency of the Wilson bill that free WOO
would drive the American wool-groUe,
out of business.
Our home wooden factories have beer
running and doing excellent business
and the amalgamation of the most i'm
portant companies shows that the
have no fear as to the result Of tn
tariff law. At any rate we do no
look for a return. to the evils of Nc
Kinleyism, and we believe that pros

upon sound financial policy.
