perity to the homes of all in
dustrious citizens. They are
too ready and willing to quar-
rel with every other school of
thought but their own, not
stopping until they have ami
hilated all schools but their
own. It seems to me that the
time has come when all re-
formers should join hands and
ask for some thing together and
at once. All must be united
upon some plan of action be-
fore any material good can be
accomplished by either party.
It is my belief that all can be
united on the initiative and re-
ferendum with the imperative
mandate. Then the different
schools of thought can go on
with their education and the
people will decide for them
selves at the ballot box. If the
people make a law today that
does not suit them they can re-
peal it tomorrow and make
another one. While we are
controlled by the present form
of government or the repre-
sentative form, we are COM
pletely in the hands of the rep
resentatiVes and we must wait
until their office expires, and
often times we must wait until
new party is built up. AS re-
formers let us stop fighting
each other; we have enough
fighting to do. Let us stand
side by side and fight the COM
mon enemy, "selfishness.'

and cannot be

shaken.
Then comes the philosophic-
al anarchist who plainly sees
the effect of bad laws, and all
law gives privileges to some
that others cannot enjoy. The
anarchists wish to gradually
abolish law until absolute indi-
vidual liberty or equal opp0r-
tunity is reached, and when
that state is attained man will
not require law to restrain him
from doing harm to his fellow
man. That theory is absolutely
disgusting and alarming to the
millionaire and the king by di-
vine right. But the average
workingman should not have
much to fear. It won't make
his condition much worse, and
the business man who has just
been driven to the wall by the
department store or some other
corporation or trust, will not
lose much if the anarchists con-
vince the world that they are
right.
Then comes the greenbacker
or bimetallist, who sees the
wrongs inflicted on the people
by the m onopolization of money
or the manipulation of it by
forcing the prices of all COM
modities up or down by ex-
banding or contracting the VOL
ume of money, and they wish
to increase the volume of
money and take the control of
money out of the hands of the
bankers or mOney1n0ngers and
place it wholly with the gov
eminent. The banker or money
lender is on one side of this
question and the farmer or pro-
Queer is on the other. The
banker cries sound money and
tells the people that the farmer
does not know what he wants
or does not know what is good
for him. The banker knows
what is good for himself SO far
as the money question is con-
cerned and if the gold standard,
or sound money, as he calls it,
is what he wants, why is it not
reasonable to suppose that free
silver or an increase in the
money volumeis just what the
farmer needs.
There are many more schools
of thought too numerous to
mention and all trying to solve

Ref0rners.
r. NJ. GOODWIN.

In the last three or four de-
cades all sorts of reformers
have forced themselves to the
fore and have tried by honest
argument to educate people to
their way of thinking.
Labor displacing machinery
and the inventive genius of man
has changed our industrial con-
dition but has not changed our
industrial system. Old econo-
mists have been relegated to
the rear and new ones have
been given prominence.
The Single Takers who have
entrenched themselves behind
the argument that all wealth
originally comes from the earth
and that man is entitled to an
equal opportunity of tilling the
soil are eternally right and they
cannot be shaken from their
position. Yet they do not recog-
nize all the wrongs inflicted on
the people by the shrewd and
privileged class, nor do the
single takers claim that their
measure is a panacea for all the
evils that are exis ting today.
Then we have the socialists,
who realize the wrongs of mono
ply, selfishness, greed and it's
attendant evils.
AS workingmen are thrown
out of employment by the
monopoly of machinery, money
and other commodities, the
struggle for an existence be-
comes more acute. With this
struggle, coupled with the fear
of poverty, the people become
greedy and brutal, committing
all kinds of crimes against each
other. Homes are broken up
and women become prey to
the lust of men who have
money. Can the socialist be
blamed for wishing to change
this condition by taking the
things that are monopolized
and placing them in the hands
of the state or people? But,
says the conservative, or the
man who is enjoying the lions
share of other peoples toll, that
scheme is simply a dream;
brain sick dream and cannot be
operated. Humanity is not
ready for the ideal state that
the socialist pictures. But
would it not be better to try
the socialists plan than wait for

ADVANTAGES OF IRRIGATION.

There are great advantages in favor of irrigation, which, however, cannot be stated in figures First, that there cannot be any possibility of a failure of crops through either drouth or flooding, as is too often the case in the great agricultural states; and second that the grounds kept in @ state ofcon stant addition of alluvial wash car ried on to it during irrigation. This year, for instance, the summer crops over immense areas Of the great "corn belt" are practically failures; while in irrigated New Mexico and Arizona the crops are excellent, and the wheat and oats the best ever seen in many parts ot the world.
 There are four branches of farm ine with irrigation that are partl- cularIy suited to men with small ol moderate capital. First, growing alfalfa hay for sale; secondly, grow ing alfalfa hay and fattening steers with it; thirdly, raising improved breeds of bulls wherewith to supply the wants of ranchmen, and feed ing alfalfa hay as an additional feed in winter and fourthly raising 'ruit.

TIE annual report of Capt Thomas Gates, Superintendent Of the Territorial prison for the year 1895 has been filed with the Gov ernor.
 It reflects great credit on the management of that institution, showing a marked decrease in the expense of maintaining the prison and a saving of several thousand dollars to the taxpayers of the Territory
 The average attendance for the year was 171 and the cost per diem per capita was $O.6658 as compared to S0.7S7 for tho year 1894 and the actual saving in running expenses was $6,69O4+
 The receipts from all prison sources for 1895 were $2.401 .45, which deducted from the cost of maintaining the prison leaves a total reduction in the average per capita per diem of $O.123,
 This saving has not been secured at the expense Of any essential re. quisite to the comfort and well be ing of the inmates but by strict economy and careful management
 Without materially interfering with the quality a..1 quantity ot supplies the average per capita pel diem of the commissary Depart ment has been reduced to IA cents a figure never before reached in the history of the institution.
 During the year there was re- ceived from the United States tC the credit of the prison the sum ot I$16,8S6.93 for maintenance of Res ervation Indian prisoners.
 The sanitary condition of the prison is all that care and labor can make it. The buildings are kept thoroughly clean, renovated often and whitewashed throughout, and improvements and repairs have been made during the year by the convicts that would have cost at the prevailing rate of wages, I$6,O00.
 It IS the common remark of all strangers who visit the penItentiary that it is the best kept institution of its kind to be found in the West and that the prisoners are better cared for and treated than else where.
 The electric light and water plant is nearly completed, and will, when in use still further reduce the expenses in a considerable de- gree.
 The management, under the able supervision of the Superintendent deserve the thanks of the people of the Territory for the economic policies practiced and methods oI |ravtrr e- mHrh money ad0gted.

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP,

SOME READING THAT WILL PROVE
INTERESTING TO YOUNG MOTHERS
WHY TO GUARD AGAINST THE Dis
EASE.
Group is terror to young
mothers and to post them coucern-
ing the cause, first symptoms and
treatment is the object Of this
item. The origin of Group is a
common cold. Children who are
subject to it take cold very easily
and Group is almost sure to follow.
The first symptom is hoarseness; ;
this is soon followed by a peculiar
rough cough, which is easily
recognized and will never be for
gotten by one who has heard it.
The time to act is when the child
first becomes hoarse. If Chamber
lain's Cough remedy is freely
given all tendency to group will
soon disappear. Even after the
croupy cough has developed it
will prevent the attack. There is
no danger i'll giving this remedy
for it contains nothing injurious.

Sunday, November 9Th, 1896.
The Rev. Mr.. G.. W. Hardy Of
the Presbyterian Church was
allowed the privilege of preaching
in the Tabernacle owned by the
Church of Latter-day Saints. He
took for his text the words "The
sabbath was made for man and
not man for the sabbath" He
showed that God designed that
both man and beast should have
this one day in seven to rest, as
their nature required it, and
also that man should have this
one day in seven for divine wor-
ship.
Gideon Lafayette Andrus, son
of Bishop James Andrus, who
is expected to leave in few days
on mission to Australia, spoke q
short time and desired that the
Latter-day Saints would assist him
with their faith and prayers while
on this mission, as he desired to
assist in carrying the truths of the
Gospel to our fellow man wher-
ever his lot may be cast.
In the evening meeting was held
in the basement of the Tabernacle
and words of encouragement were
given by elder Orrin Fl. Snow, Of
Pine Valley, also by Bishop And
rus and his councillor Tomas P.
Gotham, and then elder James G.

ing of the Sabbath day holy, and

recorded on page 223 Of the book
of doctrine and covenants. The
9th verse reads "and that thou
mayest more fully keep myself
unspotted from the world, thou
shalt go to the house of prayer
and offer up thy sacraments upon
my holy day. And the 18th and

shalt do none other thing, only let
thy food be prepared with single
ness of heart that thy fasting
may be perfect, or in other words
that thy Joy may be full. Verify,
